presentation! how voting works.
annual meeting is april 18 at 4:30
it loooong
platforms!
if you're running for a thing, write a platform for the thing
just one platform, but include the stuff you're running for
speech
1 min to speak
1 speech per position
you don't have to speak
the color of elections is purple
positions are elected in descendingorder of rank
nomcom is proctors
they don't have to be but it keeps happening
voting
there are ballots!
you'll get a piece of paper
you have to use the ballot from the correct round
it will be displayed
they are anonymous
ed will burn them afterwards
write the ANDREW ID
it doesn't count if it's not perfectly correct
there's a process for counting and eliminating
the proctors know how, you can check the process in the bylaws
or ask ed
absentee ballots
you have to email them to nomcom by monday, april 18, at? noon?
one vote per position
answers to questions
everyone who is a voting member can vote, even if they're on nomcom or nominated
there's a bylaws rule that says the slate isn't valid if we could possibly run out of people for later positions
basically we can't do elections if there's a possibility that we would end up with an empty position
if you wanna withdraw, just contact nomcom

OLD BUSINESS
the Thing!
having to have the spirit of the thing isn't sam's fault

NEW BUSINESS
motion to creat a standing rule
like, a rule that everyone has to be standing
this is discriminatory to people who can't stand up
there's nothing in our bylaws that says we can't
actually, student activities says we can't
ACTUALLY, they say we need to have something in our bylaws
we. don't.
ammend rule to "all kgb members during a GBM must be standing up as high and for as long as they are able"
passes
we would have to be standing until we make a motion to sit
change all "standing" to "sitting"
passes
this is now the sitting rule
only mike has to follow standing rules
change all "sitting" to "dancing"
fails
change all "sitting" to "sitting on the floor"
what if ed can't sit down all teh way can he just lean
if walls are just vertical floors, are chairs just raised floors
nope they're chairs
fails
motion to change all rules to sitting on the floor
NO
so if you don't follow a standing rule does that mean that you won't stand for this
fyi this requires people to sit as high as they are able for as long as they are able
the floor is lava committee approves
has there ever been an emu as tall as this emu
HEY DOWN IN FRONT
FAILS

motion to make all the standing rules sit down
this would make squid, point of blank, and spoontinudigu sit down
they'd have to sit down at the end of the year anyway
FAILS

the outlet for my insanity: to vent my frustration at the goddamn lack of outlets in this room
so yesterday skye was in a meeting
and there was a really high outlet
and skye almost died
change insanity to "insamity"
PASSES
motion to make this committee sit down
it wants to be comfortable
motion to make the outlet sit down
you can try
if you just SCREAM into the power hole you should get some electrons
change insamity to innanity
fails
ad hoc you're green with it: generating electricity from screams seems like a great premise for a movie
the outlet is sitting down, it's just sitting down as high as it can
PASSES
$2 to Harry, either harry or murphy will chair

i took a class in electrons once: to say technically correct but unhelpful things about electrons
change "electrons" to "power hole"
passes
dillon was usin wolfram alpha
10pf is not 10 pico ferrads. it means 10 per fortnight
as an electrical engineer, joe is very positive about electrons
all the (ex) physics majors express their hatred of physics
PASSES
$5 to erin, anyone who has taken a class where they mention the word electon

amendment questions
basically, exec CAN expel someone via just themselves.
there are intervening steps and checks, but the power is with exec
rationale for the whole amendment?
gross stuff has happened in the KGB in the past, and ultimately we're just a bunch of college kids
we've structured this to be a guide and to involve student activities--adults
skye says: a big thank you to EVERYONE who helped, if anyone wants to help or make any comments, talk to skye
(or any of us)
joe says: also, that segment hadn't been changed in FIFTEEN years
our body has changed, and so have the times
they needed an update
were the existing procedures ever used?
not really
they didn't really help guide the users
so why will THIS be used, if these weren't?
we tried to change how things start
we go into detail about when someone comes to exec with a problem
we've also added probation, which will hopefully facilitate better options
since dillon has been on the board, we've had to deal with at least one situation requiring this article
we felt that the options were either too extreme or not enough
in conjunction with student activities, we figured out what to do
this amendment pretty much came out of that experience, and what we felt the bylaws didn't help us with
joe's take
right now, the section also only revokes membership privileges
so if someone NOT technically a member did bad stuff, we had no official capacity to keep the general body safe
also, suspension
the powers of suspension were super limited
if something happened during booth, the scope was super short and ineffectual
what is the set of situations that could trigger the article?
basically, someone has to bring a complaint
we don't have a list of "valid offenses"
we are still going to work on one--if you want to work on it, we are open to the help
are there parts that keep the procedures from being abused?
sort answer: yes
exec has power, but for most actions ALL--or 2/3s--of exec would have to be corrupt/bad/etc
can the amendement be amended
yes, but we would have to withdraw it and then resubmit
basically, any amendments would have to be handled by the next exec because of how close we are to the annual meeting

motion to make an allocation not to exceed $50 for food and supplies for the event
PASSES

general chaos committee reports

motion to disband the kgb
dilatory

motion to grant murphy the tile of general chaos
change to "you have to remain standing as high and for as long as you are able"
LOUD SOUND
this change is dilatory because this motion has not purpose
