About the Administrative Council

• Current Officers – 2007-2008
• Council meetings

The administrative council consists of the following officers: President, First Vice President, Second Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Immediate Past President. The extended administrative council includes anyone else the council deems advisable, such as managers of active committees and of local Special Interest Groups (SIG).

Chapter officers (except for the Immediate Past President) are elected; other members of the extended administrative council are appointed. Only chapter officers are eligible to vote on administrative issues. Other members of the extended council serve as advisors to the officers on administrative issues. All members of the extended council must be chapter members in good standing. Duties and responsibilities of the administrative council are described in the Chapter Bylaws PDF file (84 K).

About Administrative Council Meetings

The administrative council or extended council meets at the discretion of the President or at the request of two or more members of the Council. A majority of the voting members of the council constitutes a quorum (at least four of the six voting members).

Committee and subcommittee managers, and chapter members who are not on the Administrative Council, are welcome to attend and participate in all Administrative Council meetings. Only elected chapter officers are eligible to vote on administrative issues. Other members of the extended council (committee managers) serve as advisors to the officers on administrative issues.

Council meetings are included in the Calendar of Events.
