ONE Chapter Meeting

We had our elections today - I'm the VP of the Wilmington College ONE Chapter!! We've yet to be recognized by the college, but we've got meetings set up next week to take care of those matters. I'll just post the minutes here instead of trying to recap everything.

ONE Chapter Meeting

Friday, October 26, 2007

3:00pm

CSCE

Attendance: Caitlin Reed, April Bentley, Mariah Fulton, Bri Rogers, Milyda Cass

Minutes

Constitution: April shared a copy of our Constitution and by-laws, and she needs to change one thing before submitting it. Our Constitution was modeled off other campus organizations’ Constitutions but has been specified to the ONE Chapter’s goals. To ratify the ONE Chapter’s Constitution and by-laws, 2/3 of the members present at one of the first two founding meetings must vote to ratify it. April went over constitution and by-laws and allowed for discussion of any questions. The ONE Chapter’s advisor will be Tara Lydy. The President of the ONE Chapter will report to the Service Leader Executive Board (SLEB) at weekly meetings. The ONE Chapter will go through SLEB but needs to be recognized as its own entity by SGA.

Mariah Fulton moved to ratify the proposed Constitution and by-laws, and Bri Rogers seconded the movement. No discussion was requested, and the vote to ratify was unanimous.

Meeting with Sigrid: April Bentley will be meeting with Sigrid Solomon (Dean of Students) Tuesday, October 30 at 9:00am. The meeting will define the ONE Campaign, describe how a ONE Chapter will be relevant to WC’s mission statement, and describe how the ONE Chapter will positively impact WC’s campus.
