Whereas, the ASUCI Bylaws, Article 3, Section 2, Subsection a. outlines the executive officer duties,

Whereas, these duties are long out of date and refer to an antiquated organizational structure and commissions that no longer exist,

Whereas, in order to hold executive officers accountable for their obligations to the student body it is very important to be clear about what their responsibilities are,

Whereas, these revisions are endorsed by all of the Executive Officers who believe that they will rectify the discrepancies between their stated responsibilities and actual responsibilities while improving the efficiency of the organization,

Let it therefore be resolved that Article 3, Section 2, Subsection a. of the ASUCI Bylaws be amended to read as follows:

a. Executive Officer job responsibilities (see ASUCI Constitution for powers) are listed below. For Executive Officers receipt of a stipend shall be contingent upon the fulfillment of these responsibilities and working a minimum of 16 hours per week during the academic year and twelve hours a week during the Summer:
