[expand title=”Click to expand”]

At the University Students’ Council meeting on Nov. 2 in the Roy Romanow Council Chambers, the USC discussed the proposed amendments to the bylaws. These amendments will be voted on during the University of Saskatchewan Students’ Union annual general meeting at 6 p.m. on Nov. 23 in Room 146 of the Arts Building. The proposed amendments are as follows:

• to allow 10 more days before members of Students’ Council need to submit proposed bylaw amendments in advance of meetings
• to remove the requirement of USSU executives to register in classes during the regular academic year
• to change the date by which the USSU is required to hold by-elections for vacant executive or MSC positions to Oct. 31 rather than Dec. 1
• to remove the requirement to immediately hold a runoff election before Mar. 31 if a candidate fails to get elected by a majority vote, resulting in a vacancy
