Hello,
This Monday, we will have a chapter meeting! It will be in 2-131, at
7:30pm. It does not yet have anyone signed up to cook, so let wendy_13 know
if you can!
The agenda will include, in addition to normal updates:
--voting on standing policies! (see below)
--conclave report (from the business perspective)
--talking about nomcomm!
For your reference and life planning, the chapter meeting on 4/23 will be
the nominations and DSK meeting (the week of Big Screw!), SFF is 4/28, and
5/7 will be elections. PCR/PTR is May 8, and I-banquet will be 5/19.
YiLFS,
Rachel
Standing Policies:
In addition to our bylaws, which are amendable but are meant to be fairly
long-lasting, we have standing policies, which are easier to change.
Standing policies last at most three years, so they need to be regularly
renewed. This semester, we have three policies we need to decide whether to
renew. Exec talked last Monday about these and is tentatively in favor of
changing them, with minor edits; a more comprehensive email about these
will go out shortly (not to apo-news, to avoid spammage of apo-news with
discussion).
There will also be a new policy put forward, about our elections procedure,
to the effect of "I move that it be a standing policy of AXcoAPO that
before co-chairs of a project or of the chapter are elected or appointed,
each must have been given the opportunity to privately inform the body
performing the election or appointment as to their thoughts on working with
their prospective co-chair(s)."
