Subject: [Mi-abs] Student Constitution Amendment 2

The second amendment deals with how many board positions we elect
to our board. The two opposing sections regarding this issue are
listed below followed by two different proposals to resolve this
issue. During the business portion of our student seminar, I will
ask someone to read these sections of the constitution along with
both of the proposals. I will then ask for a motion from the
floor as to which proposal we should adopt. Once the motion
passes, we will proceed with the elections.

 

ARTICLE V - OFFICERS AND THEIR DUTIES

 

Section One: Elections

There shall be elected at the regular annual business meeting a
president, a vice president, a secretary, a treasurer, and four
board members. The terms of their offices shall begin at the
close of the annual business meeting at which they are elected
and qualified.

 

ARTICLE VI - BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The board of directors of this organization shall consist of the
four constitutional officers and two at-large members.

 

Proposal 1:

 

Change ARTICLE V Section 1 from four board members to two board
members. 

 

Proposal 1 would read:
