Should a senator (or committee member) accept a fulltime twelve months administrative position, whether permanent or interim, that individual should resign from their senate seat and/or all committees on which they are serving.” The rationale “A motion to this “requesting” this was adopted by the Senate on November 27, 2012 and approved by the President. This has been the traditional practice for some time. However, that motion did not amend the bylaws; this motion makes that intent clearer.“  Pat Humphrey (COSM) Senate Moderator: Once again, this is an SEC Committee recommendation for a Bylaws amendment, so it does not require a second. Is there any discussion on this motion?  Rob Pirro (CLASS): So has it worked the last two years? Does anybody know of any negative consequences from this practice?  Pat Humphrey (COSM) Senate Moderator: I know of none. We did have some discussion on what we call an administrator, but I know of no negative consequences. Any other discussion? Seeing none, all in favor please say aye. All opposed? The motion carries. Another motion on appeals. Lowell Mooney, please.
