o Seconded by EIU • Ball State moves to waive; 2nd by SVSU
o No objections • Proponent Speech
o This piece is very similar to one that NRHH CCs passed at regionals. When NACURH makes a change that affects our policy book, this allows the board to make those changes
17
without presentation and voting by reps. Reps will be informed of all changes that affect changes to the governing documents. It’s up to you all if you still want to hear those pieces. A way you have a voice in these pieces is by recommending changes, etc. to the board prior to voting on these pieces on the NACURH-level. The point of legislation is to make a sustainable organization that doesn’t need to be changed in the future. We don’t always want to focus on legislation; this allows more time.
• Q&A o Ball State - Can you please reiterate what the timeline is how and when you will tell us
when it passes? Immediately after it is passed, the region will be notified of changes. It would
appear as business at the next business meeting if CCs want to see that. o UW-River Falls - Is this going on in any other regions? In CAACURH; yield to Shane
In CAACURH, it’s not used a lot, but we do have that process in place to help us with formally making those changes.
o UW Green Bay moves to end; 2nd by Oakland University No objections
• Discussion o UIC NRHH: Want to make a friendly amendment to the last line of the piece. o SIU Carbondale: In full support of this piece; we feel this process will allow us to have
more time in boardroom to focus on other items. o River Falls: In full support; allows us to have time efficiency in boardroom. o Ball State: These pieces have to o Whitewater NRHH calls the question; no objections

o ART coordinator works with the advisors, should be an application process that will make the appointment for the advisor, CCs did not know what the ART coordinator needed to bring to the position, expedite the process, director and advisor know what they are looking for
• Q and A o Eastern Michigan University: Asking for clarification on ART Coordinator requirements?
Section 1 A, ART program went through a resurgence in NACURH 2014 and we used to refer to it as receiving the ART certification and is a lingo that advisors use with the previous ART program levels were different with ART and Master ART, has level 1,2 and 3 levels, when you completed it you can facilitate the programs and now you cannot facilitate the level until the new ART curriculum is put into place

• Proponent o With the new ART program this is the same thing with the regional advisor program, this
limited and narrowed the qualifications of the people taking on the regional advisor position not a lot of candidates capable for bidding for the regional advisor position and want to meet standards for the NACURH ART program, clarifying the level 1, level 2, and would not have had any candidates
• Q and A o BSU- concerned about this not concerned with how much work goes into ART program
may shrunken the pool as well, It is that way now, went back and forth, talked with Haylie and Justin, was put
into governing docs in the first place, if we have someone advising the board it would be important they had the training needed to advise, it is another step for correct qualifications for that person who will advise, backed by NACURH, regional advisor should be at least level 2 through going through that position, trying to lessen the limits, if you are concerned about the qualifications and the governing body has the final decision and this just opens the field to hear from
23
more professionals about it, to further on that do not want to dupe anybody, do not need to train the trainer and do not need to be at the conference, do not need to be at a nacurh conference, should have gone to a certain qualification

• Proponent speech for PQ and R o Tabled to spirit and legislation committee o Committee voted 3 to 1 to not bring any of the pieces back up and so the motion was to
refine and bring them back up at No frills 2016, made revisions with what was originally talked about in the Regionals Boardroom, made it 4 pages instead of 8 and do not want to submit bids because it is a lot of work and in an effort to push people to make the bids, made them smaller and added at least 1 letter of support from a supervisor and this is the changes to this piece
• Q and A o Ball State: Why did the committee shoot down these three awards?
All the discussion was why would we bring 3 more bids into our region when we cannot get enough bids for what we have now which is why we made them smaller and easier to do and If one letter is required and then 3 pages of content and this is a compromise that we came to and if we cannot get people to bid now then why would we increase them, mention in committee about OTMs being significant for what the bids are for now
o EMU- yields o Alexis- yields o Eastern Michigan: GLACURH was missing a few of the bids that IACURH had. The
reason I made these was because we were the biggest region school wise. This would give the region more options for bids? Wanted to add bids that other regions had and felt that we are the most populated
with institutions and felt that all regions should have the opportunity to bid for the same things, and wrote them to help this, there is a lack of bid submissions, giving them more options would give more institutions
o NIU: Do the page of numbers count toward the table of contents? None of the page numbers include a cover page but does include a table of
contents but is room for content, made them smaller could be easier o Riverfalls: This is a Bid not an OTM?
Correct, if we did not have this there are OTM categories for student staff member of the year
o IU Bloomington: Would it be a concern that the table of contents and letters of support is the whole bid? Based this off of is what FYE is currently it used to be just a bunch of letters of
support changed to a 4 page bid or smaller bid and gave more information and is a sufficient amount of information, would not be enough content to uphold 8 to 10 pages of content
o IU Indy: Are these OTMs popular
25
This is a Geoffrey question but do not vote for Student Staff member of the year, do typically read 18-20 RA of the month OTMs and believe Abbas is looking it up
o IU moves to end Q and A Seconded by Whitewater No objections
• Discussion o SIUC- feels that we should agree with the ideas of the committee and should not vote the
legislation through o WIU- feels there should be an increase of submissions that are already around and since
it is GLACURH to GLACURH and there is not enough information o NIU feels that since it is only a 4 page bid would like to add the extra recognition, in
support of MMP o Purdue-ytr but the fact that we have OTMs and the bid itself is so short it would be not as
efficient to award the bid when we have OTMs that recognize the same thing o SVSU- feels that it gives the chance of more recognition and smaller bid size is pleasing
to help people bid o GB- in support of the idea of smaller bids to encourage schools to bid but not in support
because there is an OTM category for this o Oakland- echoes what SVSU said about us being recognition for a wider range o IU- not in support because of what Alexis brought forth from the committee, but it may
increase bid submissions and not sure if this will actually happen, maybe revise the bids we currently have to be smaller could be more productive for our time
o Eau Claire- support for MMP and wants more variety to encourage more participation o EMU- would like to point out that there are multiple awards that are also OTMs and there
is a certain amount of prestige of getting the of the year award o Riverfalls- feels that this is a good opportunity for others to get involved and page count
is something we would vote on and one may not want to do 2 letters o EIU- Yield o EIU- feels that other regions have the OTY of student staff member to be like other
regions o Ferris- would like to echo the pros and cons would like to point out the fact that section A

more student staff members on universities that OTMs cover as many recognition we need and this piece of legislation is unnecessary
• MSU- in favor of this resolution of what is not functioning perfectly and see values for giving other institutions a chance to submit bids and does not go to boardroom anyways but does give other institutions more of a chance, do not see this as a negative and adding further bids do not take anything away
• SIUE- Yields • IUPUI Calls the question

• WIU: Was this down voted in committee? o Down voted in the committee

o Proponent Alumni Association is getting started, talked about what we wanted from the
alumni association and what we wanted with the pin and we wanted to have the
31
people in the committee and in the association have attended at least 2 GLACURH Related conference, does not include subregional but does include 2 GLACURH Related conferences, used to be 10 dollars, now raised to 15 dollars, and that is more people that are able to be included into the conference.
o Q and A Eastern Michigan University: With the social, would that take place within that
year’s GLACURH, or a completely separate event that could happen whenever? • So with the alumni social, would that take place within that year’s
GLACURH. And this would happen just like any other social and this would be strictly alumni social and would not be the same night as advisor social so they are not in both socials at the same time, can be in the alumni association, where all the other socials are
UW Green Bay: For the alumni newsletter, why is it going from annual to biannual?
• For the alumni newsletter, going from Annual to Biannual, there is a lot of information that happens at the meetings and pick our new RBD for the next affiliation year, and there is so much information that happens during the conference, we went from annual to biannual so this is twice a year and not every two years. They would go out after NACURH and after GLACURH (June and December)
Western Michigan University: I feel like this would be putting a strain on the conference hosts, how will you prevent that? Also what would the alumni be doing at the rest of the conference staff?
• Red flag having an alumni social at the conference, putting a strain on the conference host every 5 years, have to be a conference attendee during the conference, they would not be a part of the conference, they only have to book a room for the social then the committee organizes and plans the social if they are not delegates or advisors of the conference, would have to provide their own housing when they get here,
Eau Claire moves to extend Q and A by 3 minutes • Seconded by Platteville
SIU Edwardsville: You said the social would be for one day. Do you really perceive alumni members travelling many hours just for this social?
• Social would be just for one day, do you think that the alumni association may travel many hours for the social, alumni who are a part of the committee sought out this event, gets the advisors who would make this journey for this,
Eastern Illinois University: Could GLACURH delegates at the conference meet alumni attending the social?
• That’s always an opportunity that the delegates could go to socials and meet the alumni but it would be a good networking opportunity for delegates to meet the other GLACURH alumni
UW Platteville: Would the current advisors and alum with the delegations also attend the social?
• yes since it would be at the conference site they would have the option to do that, advisors can go to any socials, this is a networking opportunity

IU- moves to amend and strike point D from subsection E • No second
Purdue- would like to know why IUB thought the subsection should be stricken IU- thought it would be a lot on the conference staff but taking into account
transportation and if a social that lasts an hour may not be an efficient use of time SVSU- feels that the social would be beneficial and this would not be a strain on
the conference staff but CO TMR would have this responsibility, full support of this
EMU- Point of Information- organize a social leaves it open to interpretation and could be something during the day, leaves a few years to become a thing,
GB- in support of the piece, is essential for the advancement of the Alumni association and if we did have a 1 hour social the conference committee is a good idea, not a hardship to add one more room
CMU- if we had this opportunity for interaction, we should give the chance to them to relive their glory days and continue a stronger org,

o Proposing 2 amendments, if you do one you should do both • Q and A
o Ball State: Is there a reason you didn’t already put the amendment in the piece before it was brought up? When we looked at this legislation, got revamped 3 times because it is very
complicated, we do not really want to do this as a first choice, it is not as effective as in face meetings and less efficient, had to look at different angles, when this was originally submitted by deadlines of legislation
o Purdue: If someone wanted to host GLACURH after this meeting, how would that work if this piece did not pass? We would have to push conference selection to NACURH, we only have one
hour to meet during NACURH o Eastern Michigan: With the virtual business meeting, what would happen if someone
could not attend the meeting scheduled? Says director has to send out times for the meeting and the director, as long as we
reach quorum we can vote on the conference sites and for awards as well, it would be addressed as if it was an absence if you showed up after the time meeting, quorum starts and stays at the beginning of the meeting
o EMU Follow-up: If the NCC wouldn’t be able to make the meeting, could we proxy the vote to another executive board member or would it only have to be the NRHH-CC? Anyone that goes to your host institution can attend
o SVSU: Is the amendment to prevent random virtual meetings from just happening? o Ball state moves to extend Q and A by 5 minutes
Milwaukee seconds wants to be clear of the amendment is to prevent random virtual meeting
happening, we would not use virtual meetings to elect conference sites unless the specified date allows us to meet sooner and give them sufficient time to plan the conference
o NIU: Can you elaborate more on why Article 16, Section 1, Part E is stricken? Hoping you could elaborate more on the article that was stricken, it gets
repetitive, any schools hoping to have this, any school bidding for No Frills should submit by a timeline instead of restating what C already says
o SIU-C NRHH: Can you elaborate on why you chose to have this just for host sites and not for bids that are vacant at No Frills (position bids)? Position vacancies have an appointment process if we are not filled at the No
Frills Conference and how they get filled at that point, separate process o NIU NRHH: We were curious as to how we could do a secret ballot if we are voting
electronically? The way a secret ballot would work by a google form or email
o Ball State: If quorum starts at the beginning and you keep it throughout, wouldn’t it cause a miss vote if someone leaves? Quorum just has to be met at the beginning and take role before each vote
o Emu moves to extend q and A by 5 min
35
SVSU Seconds o Then you know the votes at that point o Eastern Michigan: If we do the virtual business meeting using Zoom, because I’ve never
used Zoom, is there a limit on how long the meetings can be and how many people can be in it? We have the professional and would allow us to host everyone in this room and

While we were at the RBD retreat prior to this conference, similar to what we told you all during GLACURH Boardroom, there are a lot of bids that are disqualified for small errors. We believe that it’s important to give institutions the opportunity to fix those small issues that get bids disqualified. How the current practice is, when the CO for Bidding makes deadlines, there is a period of bid review that the RBD will review any bids submitted. We are not making this optional any longer. Someone will submit a bid, it will be constitutionally reviewed. Within 72 hours, institutions will be given any changes they need to make. If they do not make those changes within 48 hour, those bids will be disqualified. At GLACURH there were 23 bids that were submitted and 11 were disqualified. At No Frills we had 16 submitted and 10 were disqualified.
o Q&A Stevens: What are the major concerns that you had that were disqualifying
institutions? • With NRHH bids, it was a lack of RHA letters of support which we
fixed. Page numbers on letters of support. The front page requires a lot of different information which can be easy to forget. Most of the items are easy fixes. Table contents is another item. Also, sentences stating “good standing”
Eastern Michigan: Have you ever gotten a bid that was too far gone? • I don’t think I have, no. A lot of them are very fixable. In the past, my
main goal was to ensure that there were minimal bids disqualified. Eau Claire: If you find something that is unconstitutional, do you explain what is
wrong? • It’s on the honor system.
Oakland University: If a school were to receive an email about what needs fixed, is it 48 hours from reception of the email?
• Yes. It would be on the dot. We personally reached out to everyone via our available means to make sure they were aware.
SIU-Edwardsville: Is there something missing in 8? • Being totally honest, I don’t know why. I think it was on the template.
Guelph: If you get the email on the Friday, does the weekend count in the 24 hours?
• For the purpose of the trial, we were at retreat. This would be sent out on a weekday more like to provide for those changes to be pursued during the work week.
NIU: How would you ensure that the board would catch everything that is outside of policy?
• The entire RBD would be included in this process. When you add nine people looking at these bids, it increases the likelihood that those mistakes will be caught.
Eastern Illinois moves to end Q&A; SVSU • EMU objects • SVSU retracts • Eastern Illinois retracts
NIU: If you were put this into practice, would this lower the quality of bids?
38
• Absolutely not. We’ve made a lot of changes that has set a precedent for the next CO for Bidding. If anything, this will help improve bids.
What is your vision? Would you send a confirmation so those submitting bids know either way?
• Essentially if you don’t receive an email, you’ll be fine Ball State moves to extend Q&A by one (1) minutes; seconded by SVSU Eastern Michigan University: Does the parliamentarian review the bids?
• No, because the parliamentarian is now an application position. o Discussion
Purdue: We are in full support of this piece of legislation and believe it will increase submissions.
Western Mich: We are in full support of this piece of legislation because bid writing takes time. The process is beneficial for individuals as a whole. This is reasonable.
Michigan State: We fully support this piece. As we had a bid disqualified for not having a table of contents.
UIC: Full support as it allows everyone the opportunity to benefit from this process
SIUC: Full support; we are excited to see the willingness of the RBD to ensure NIU: We believe this piece will increase the constitutional knowledge. Echo
everything that has been said. Guelph calls the question; objections Oakland University: In full support Wayne State University: In full support allows the opportunity to learn. It helps
us understand what we’re bidding for, what the expectations are, and how to go about the process.
UW-GB: EIU: Regarding human error; EIU calls the questions; no objections
o Vote Consent; motion passes
• NACURH Spirit Packs o White Horn o Clappers o 110 per delegation
• Regional Assessment Survey Results • Strategic Planning Presentation
o Stevens Point: Is there another way we can give our feedback? Emails are great! Send them to [email protected]
o Purdue: In the strategic plan, will each initiative have steps to put into action? Yes, each initiative has goals. Goals will also be on a timeline so we stay on task.
o IU Bloomington: What will happen if it’s not approved? We would hope that with all the opportunities for feedback that wouldn’t be the
case, but we will cross that bridge when we get to it. • Flint Water Crisis Video • Advancement Society
