As some of you know, new CSI (Center for Student Involvement) regulations went into effect last semester, and each club needs to abide by them. The other officers and I don't have the time to devote to the club that CSI wants us to do. It's not fair to the members that the club get cut because we don't have the time to devote to it.
So we're holding elections! The elections will be for all four positions of the executive board (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer). Elections will take place at our NEXT MEETING on Tuesday.
ALL members (except last semester seniors—sorry!) who want to run should prepare to run for the office of President. The winner of the election will be President, the runner-up will be Vice President, third place will be Secretary and fourth place will be Treasurer.
The members will be part of the e-board effective right after their elections.
Before you think of running, be aware of CSI requirements on clubs and make sure you have the time to devote to them (if you don't, please don't run for office):
- All clubs must hold 3 events per semester, 1 must be community service. Events could be as simple as holding the regular club meeting in a more
public area. Community service could be manning the tables for an hour at the blood drive. You must be able to plan for the events at least 30 days in advance and meet with CSI
- You must meet REGULARLY with CSI to go over your events and budget.
- You must attend e-board meetings at the beginning of each semester.
- You must hand in paperwork on time.
- You must be able to work together in an e-board for the good of the club
After you're elected, you'll have to meet with CSI ASAP. I'm going to give them your names and e-mails so they know who you are once you're elected.
