Minutes in Seconds from the March 2025 Board Meeting:
Actions:
- After review of a whitepaper, directed the Organizational Development Committee to continue forward with creating a working group to determine what groups of volunteers are needed to best support Fraternity operations and the Strategic Priorities. They will then review and decide on policy recommendations to support the remaining committee structure before August.
- Approved bylaws recommendation which will be presented to the Grand Chapter:
- Create four (4) Board Committees in Bylaws and update the inclusion of other committees within the Bylaws.
- Extend the Collegian of the Year term length to three years, therefore adding a third Collegian of the Year to the Fraternity Board of Directors and increasing the size of the Fraternity Board by one.
- Create language within bylaws regarding a resolution of the Grand Chapter. The existing resolution process exists only within policy.
- Reviewed and took a stance on GCC bound legislative items approved at Provincial Council meetings in 2024 and 2025, including:
- Grand Officers as Delegates
- Badge Clasping by Pledges in Ritual
- DDs Serving Multiple Chapters
- Provincial Council Policy Proposal Process
- Pauses and Pronunciations in Ritual
- Pledging Ceremony Roles and Layout in Ritual
- Reciting Purpose in Pledging Ceremony in Ritual
- Provincial Board Role
- Grand President Elect
- Failed a recommendation to mitigate the organizational risk of having a Board member also serving as a DD, AC President, or Collegiate Officer during the same tenure.
