Constitutional Review
PARTHA - Defined special election procedure in case of a resignation (currently
there are no rules)
Voter eligibility: need to have attended 3 meetings in the semester,
2 meetings in the semester and the previous semester, lobby or campaign trip in
the previous semester or current semester. 2 semesters spans over the summer.

 If someone resigns over the summer, the election would be

announced the first meeting, and the election would take the third week of the
semester
Extend the amount of time for special elections to 2 weeks after a
vacancy. There is already an emergency appointment provision for Lead Activist,
Treasurer, and Secretary. No campaigning obviously
Partha will email the wording as soon as he has internet access
VOTE: To be reviewed in Constitutional Review
Yes: 10
No: 0
Abstain: 1
SHOSH- Board review program. Board members have to commit to either a
certain number of events or a completing a project in order to see which
members/positions of board are actually being effective.
Should not actually be an amendment, but perhaps a system with
accountability (trial run next yera)
SHOSH - review language for lead activist and their autonomy
Lead minutes are unnescessary
But there should be transparency in planning process
Tabled until there is specific language
Needs to be sent out by Sunday 19th by 11:59
Discussed again Sunday April 2
Give members a few more days to email in constitutional amendments
Due Tuesday, April 21st at 11:59 PM
