chairman of the Committee on
Committees.
The notice of motion to
amend the senate by-laws was
to make the chairperson positon
of the Committee on Commit
tees a function of the senate vice
chairperson, effectively remov
ing Paulson as an officer of the
senate
The Committee on Commit
tees is responsible for filling the
student seats on about BO
University committees There
must be a motion to amend by
law changes one week before
the actual vote.
If the amendment passes, it
will solve a conflict with the
ASUO Constitution, which
already states that the senate
vice chair shall serve as chair of
the Committee on Committees.
However, amendments to the
by-law must be passed by a two
thirds majority; for the past
three meetings, less than Iwo
thirds of the senators have at
tended the meetings.
By voting to ask the Constitu
tion Court to declare two seats
vacant, the senate removed Eric
[.arson and Pat Brown from the
senate. Brown, who represented
Seat 13. had declared to the
senate that he did not wish to
continue on the senate. Larson,
who represented Seat 4. was
removed because of non
fulfillment of duties He broke
by-laws by missing three
meetings plus Wednesday's
University Assembly meeting.
