More Information on Student Voting Amendment at Annual Business Meeting

STC’s Annual Business Meeting takes place Monday, 16 May, from 5:00-6:30 PM PDT (GMT-7) in Sacramento, CA, during the Technical Communication Summit. During the Annual Business Meeting, there will be a vote taken on a member-proposed amendment to the bylaws. The proposed amendment is to extend voting rights to student members of STC. (See the Notice of Annual Business Meeting for full details, including the agenda and rules. Note: A quorum of 100 members must be present to hold an official vote.) The STC Board of Directors studied and discussed this issue in 2010 and wanted to share their findings in advance of the vote with any members interested in the discussion.
