Committee Chairperson: Jason Wolfe wolfe357@mac.com Lindy Swain

Here are the first two chapters of the Ops Manual. This is a very rough draft, and input is always appreciated.
 * Board of Directors Operations Manual**

Amend Article II Section 4 to add numbers 6, 7, &8: 6. NMSTE Terms of Office shall commence upon the announcement of election results to the general membership of NMSTE and no more than one (1) month after the closing date of the election.
 * Bylaw Amendments Approved Fall 2009:**

7. Current Terms of Office shall be concluded upon the announcement of election results to the general membership of NMSTE, and no later than one (1) month after the closing date of the election.

8. If a special election is held to fill a vacant position the term of office shall commence immediately upon the announcement of the election results and shall be concluded at the natural expiration of the term.

Rationale: The NMSTE Bylaws do not distinctly say when a term ends and when a term begins. I believe that if we do not clarify this now then we are setting our organization up for future battles that could tear us apart. As always I am open to changes and suggestions for these amendments.

Final bylaws: (posted December 2007)
