The Delegates' Voice

Newsletter for the House of Delegates of AAPG

SEPTEMBER, 2001

Rules and Procedures Committee

Mark Rainer, Chair

As the term of the 2001-2002 Rules and Procedures Committee kicks off, there are four issues that the committee will be working on. The issues are as follows:

1. Revise the suggested HOD meeting agenda to include under Association Reports, which comes right after "Call to order and Introductions" that the order of reports would first be given by the Convention Chairman followed by the President and then Rick Fritz. This is more a housekeeping item.
2. Suggest that a plaque be presented to the Secretary/Editor of the HOD in honor of hard and laborious work performed since the development of The Delegates' Voice. This should be made retroactive to include all past Secretary/Editors to the inception of The Delegates' Voice.
3. Suggest that a candidate for a HOD office cannot be awarded a HOD award in the same year the candidate is running in.
4. Suggest that the R&P Committee consider adding a Minutes Approval Committee to review and approve the minutes within 60 days following the Annual Meeting. Such a committee could be comprised of either the incoming officers or three members who are serving their second year as Delegates to the HOD.

Any questions can be directed to me at or 214-559-3933.
