I am posting the old constitution here so people can compare it to the new draft that will be coming out shortly.
-
Hey folks, myself, Beak, and Dave have been working on getting our constitution revised. This is what we have come up with. Please look it over/proof read it and let us know if you have corrections/suggestions. Thanks.
-
And by Dave he means that I just fixed a few continuity issues and re-formatted it so it would work in a normal type of software (ie microsoft word)
Good work you two.
Yost I assume you got my email with the edits?
-
Guys, I was just informed that we need to meet with Missy G. at the Student Involvement Office to go over the changes they want us to make to the constitution.If we will not do this by April 6th, our organization will be resigned.
-
By who? Why were you informed?
-
I was at the SAC meeting to get our travel funds for KS and NE when I was informed by Missy Burgess, the new Assistant Program Director for Student Involvement. Phone and e-mail will be available in the team forum. Somebody needs to stop by her office before Easter and over the required changes with here. She said she didn't have any of us talk to her so far, and that she didn't see the revised constitution submission.
-
Hahaha... alright cool. Myself, Beek, and Yost will coordinate something. I was so confused for a second but that makes sense. Well... in a UND sort of way. Haha.
-
Was any action taken yet?
-
Not as of yet, this week is pretty bad for me but if nothing else I could more than likely go talk with her on Friday. Once we get it taken care of we will have to have it signed by our adviser.

I don't think they are working on Friday- it's Easter.

As we all discussed it at the meeting last night, it NEEDS to be taken care of TODAY. This is an e-mial I got from Missy today:
"Hi Mariusz!
I just wanted to follow up to our conversation at last week's SAC meeting. As of this morning, no one from the Cycling Club has contacted me regarding the required changes to your constitution. Per the direction from the Student Policy Committee, if I have not heard from someone in your group by this Tuesday April 6, 2010 to set a meeting with me to begin this process, your organization will be recommended for dissolution. Given that you are so active on campus, this is not something we want to do, so if you could prompt the person again who is supposed to be working with me, that would be great.
Thanks,
Missy Burgess

READ THE ABOVE AS WELL.
This are the hours she is NOT going to be in here office:
"Mariusz-
I will be out from 12-1:30PM and after 2PM.
-Missy"
-
The nooz constitution.
Emailed to Missy. We'll make it work.
-
So what is the status with Missy? Dave and Dr.Y. or Dr.G. need to sign it and we are kosher? Or something more needs to be done?

Got some changes back from Missy Burgess. I will look at them today and change as necessary.
Anyone worried about the timetable need not worry. Since we met with her yesterday, we now have until the end of the semester to get our official copy ratified and signed by the necessary parties--and we are good to go for SAC funding.
-
Sweet. Lemme know if I can be of assistance.
-
I fixed almost everything--it was very minor. I have not sent back the draft because-->
If we want to be officially affiliated with USAC and NCCCC, we need letters of affiliation:
You will need to submit a letter of affiliation from these two groups. A sample letter of affiliation can be found here: http://www.union.und.edu/involvement/studentorgs/
Click on the Guidelines for becoming a student organization on the right hand side and go to p. 20-21.
Their example letter looks roughly like this (below). I have not pursued anything else.
Sample Letter of Affiliation
Controls exercised by your parent organization may differ.
Statement of Affiliation for the UND Chapter of (Name of your Organization)
The purpose of this statement is to determine the amount of control the (national) has over the University of North Dakota chapter of (name). This letter is requested by the UND Student Policy Committee for the student organization recognition process.
1. Name and address of national affiliation.
2. Controls that (affiliate) exerts over the UND chapter: a. Control of Membership
The (affiliate) requires that the potential members must meet the membership requirements as in keeping with the UND chapter constitution.
b. Control of Activities The (affiliate) exerts no control over the activities of the UND chapter, as long as the activities are in keeping with the affiliate’s purpose.
c. Control of Funds The members of the UND chapter of the (name), must pay dues to (affiliate), as listed in the UND chapter Bylaws. The (affiliate) can make no decisions regarding funds in the UND Chapter’s account.
d. Approval of Constitution and Bylaws The UND Chapter of the (name), may adopt Bylaws not in conflict with the (affiliate) constitution. [The International Board of Directors shall have the right to revoke the charter of the UND chapter if their Constitution or Bylaws are in conflict with the (national).]
I, (individuals name), (affiliate office title) of (affiliate organization’s name), hereby approve the above statements concerning affiliation of the UND chapter of the (name) with (national name).
____________________________________ ________________________________ Signature Date
(Name) (Title) (Affiliate Organization)
Note: We suggest that you write the statement and forward it to your headquarters or national officer for a signature. Doing so will facilitate the process.

We may be able to just have this ready and have Larry sign it if he comes up for our race? Though we'd need to have a slight extension on deadline. But really... the constitution would be "done" they'd just be "waiting for USAC to send it back" aka Larry to sign it when he's here?
-
I'm not sure. We might need to have those letters in hand in order to ratify the constitution.
-
Okay, here is the most current version. It needs to be printed out and signed (by the president, another officer, and Dr. Geiger) and returned to Missy Burgess. Volees?
-
I will make an attempt to come by your office tomorrow. The only other person that would be eligible to do this would be Sanders since Logan isn't an "officer". If I don't get there tomorrow... the best suggestion I can make is that Sanders go and get it (or Beek I suppose) and bring it to me in the tutoring lab in Odegard.
I have no idea who, what, where, when ... Dr. Geiger
-
Beek... do you ever just like lol and facepalm at the same time with these kids?
-
Oh THIS thread. Somehow we had two. That's nice.

haha
