Convention 2008: Bylaws Briefing (Friday, April 4)

A new AAUW CA organization was approved at the 2007 Convention in Ontario, CA. Instead of electing directors with portfolio to the 2008-09 board, we will be asked to elect 16 directors this weekend. Once elected, the 16 will elect a president, a secretary, and a financial officer. The other 13 directors will serve in other capacities, such as AAUW CA EF director, as appropriate for her/his talent and interests.

With this new construction, which may impact branch leadership roles in the future, AAUW CA Parliamentarian Jo Harberson recommends that we make minimal changes to branch bylaws at this time. However, branches are asked to change references to "international interests" to "international affairs" to reflect language now used in Association documentation.
