OLD BUSINESS
the Thing!
this is not worms' fault
build week is not frieder's fault
motion to take off the table the amendment to article 9 of our bylaws
have there been times where these would hvae been used
response: yes.
it's not meant to be to the standard of a lawyer
but it is meant to be better written than the rest of the bylaws
we've checked off with SA--there was a meeting
what's being changed
we've completely rewritten article 9
it's very long so we can't go over the details
we changed the processes for reprimand, suspension, and expulsion
we also added probation
we involved student activities a lot more
we also made it so that the general body does NOT vote on expulsion
so that there's not a witch trial
instead exec does the vote, with advice from SA
there are no guidelines for minimum offences
the point of this is to remove the need for cultural memory, but we are relying on that for the actual extremity of offence
why was the line drawn where it was?
response:
we added nuance to the proceedings--it's less all or nothing
we also ran out of time, and we had to prioritize the process
if you want to make amendments to this (if it passes), you can go through the amendment process
as explained in the bylaws
this gives exec quite a bit of power
it also sort of mandates exec to be more involved in peoples' personal lives
if it passes people should hold exec accountable--they will be
we've had bad execs before
orgs don't implode just because the exec board treats people unfairly
(in other words, the org could still be running if mistreatment were happening)
response: we wanted to make exec be REQUIRED to try to help
that's also why we've so thoroughly wrapped SA into the process
as a check on exec, so they can hopefully detect if things are going off
confidentiality
response:
suspension does not require notification
exec must announce expulsion, but does not have to announce the name of the member
they must disclose it if asked
they must also show evidence of the meeting with SA if asked
we tried to balance accountability with protecting people who need to be protected
question: is there anything requiring that something be kept confidential
response: no
there is a delay before announcing expulsion
(the person being expelled must be notified first)
we're going to discuss it in the exec handbook, but we have no conclusions yet
the accuser also has a say on confidentiality in the appeals process
protecting parties in the event of expulsion (any parties)
response: we don't discuss the whole issue in an announcement of expulsion
if the issue is already widely known, it just was
in the new bylaws, people are more protected in that there is not a public expulsion vote
while the name is not private, it does not need to be broadcast
comment on exec's role in the kgb's social lives
like, what's in the handbook, what is motivation
response:
things have come up before, and in the past exec has said that it wasn't their problem
in making the amendment more clear, we're trying to make it clearer what will happen when people go to exec
and also make it easier for exec to do things
how well that works will depend on the exec
but what does this mean for non-kgb events
response:
we don't have juristiction there
motion to make this a secret ballot
passes
we're doing that
there's a hole
expulsion doesn't actually TECHNICALLY restrict people from going to meetings/event stuff
though it can be interpreted that way
response:
this really does no worse than the existing article
also this amendment is meant to be a start. you can always ammend it--please do
motion to vote

motion to table for one week
