Whereas the Executive Director has a heavy workload;

Whereas the task for drafting motions is primarily reserved for representatives;

Be it resolved: that the GSU amend their bylaws to move Article III, Section One, Executive Director, Roles and Responsibilities, Subsection iii:

“Create each GSU meeting’s agenda during the last portion of the preceding meeting.”

To Article III, Section Three, Responsibilities of Representatives.
