[ucc-announce] General Meeting on the 13th February for Constitution Changes

[Mitchell Pomery]

Hello All,

An Ordinary General Meeting will be held at 5.30PM on Friday the 13th of 
February to vote on proposed changes to the UCC Constitution. It will be held 
in the Guild Council Meeting Room on the second floor of the Student Guild. If 
you need help finding it, you can go to UCC before hand and we all head over as 
a group.

The Proposed Changes Are:
   - Removal of Vice President
     - Addition of Education VP and Social VP
   - Removal of one Ordinary Committee Member
     - Addition of Education Officer and Social Officer
   - Increasing the amount the club may borrow or incur in overdrafts from $100 
to $200.
   - Rewording what information we must collect from members in the Secretary's 
duties
   - Better defining the First Year Representatives duties
   - Formally stating that the committee may elect a member of the committee 
into an unfilled executive role until a General Meeting can be held to fill it.
   - The meeting can now elects the Chair if the president is absent or does not 
wish to exercise their right.

There are also several changes in the constitution to account for the change in 
the size of the committee.

You can find a copy of the constitution with the draft changes at the following 
link. Removed parts are in red, additions are in green, and notes are in blue.
