New discipline policy proposed, election code tweaked
June 29, 2005
At time of printing, TWUSA was voting on a new discipline policy that will be added to the Policy Manual on March 22. The new policy will allow Council to discipline any member who does not fulfill their job description. The first stage of discipline will include a documented verbal reprimand. If the Council member does not change his behaviour, he or she will receive a written reprimand. In the third stage of discipline, the case will be taken before the TWUSA Executive. All stages of discipline will be documented, and the policy provides that “the steps must be done in an attitude of reconciliation.”
“It creates a ‘papertrail’ to make sure that Council members follow their job descriptions,” said TWUSA President James Woller.
TWUSA will also vote on three amendments to the Election Code Manual: 1) limits joint-campaigning to only the Presidential and Executive Vice Presidential candidates; 2) provides that campaign paraphernalia of any kind will not be allowed in the TWUSA office; and 3) provides that if a candidate loses an election to a vote of “no-candidate,” that candidate will not be eligible to re-run for the same position in the bi-election.
Now you go...
