Amendment #1 – Administrative & Reflective Updates

Broadening the roles of BHSS Executive Members

  • Making them focused on addressing the needs of bhsc students
  • Updating role requirements to include transition reports
  • Expanding roles to reflect current duties such as making the financial coordinator in charge of the bhss inventory and the second year rep responsible for holding a second year transfer integration night

 
Amendment #2 – Lengthening the terms of Second, Third & Fourth year reps

Involves lengthening the terms of the second, third & fourth year reps so that the positions are elected in the bhss spring elections and can begin their work over the summer

 
Amendment #3 – Constitutional Amemendment Voting over LearnLink

Involves allowing for amendments to the bhss constitution to be possible through both learnlink & general meetings

 
Amendment #4 – Changing the Off-Campus Coordinator to the Internal Coordinator

Involves expanding the role of the off-campus coordinator to runnnig extra-curricular initiatives for all students

Inspired by:

  • The lack of consistency events ran by the off-campus position
  • The desire for new initiatives to be fronted within the student community
