District Bylaws & Policies Committee Chair: Stephanie Rink Hello Key Clubbers! I am Stephanie Rink, the Bylaws & Policies Chair. Do not feel bad if you’ve never heard of the position. It was created just this year, so that means this is the first year it will be around. It also means my own work for the committee may outline the work for future chairs. My role this year with the brand new committee is to discover what this position means for WIUM. It is a lot of pressure to be the first of my position, but hopefully I can make a smooth path for the people who will come after me. For those of you unfamiliar with bylaws or policies, you would be surprised that you know a lot more than you think you do, especially if you had previously attended DCON or the House of Delegates. There you are able to see bylaws or policies in action; all the procedurals that some people may find boring or repetitive are actually specifically written out to fit an exact purpose so that Key Club can continue running smoothly. Though that is not all that bylaws and policies are, that is what they look like in their most recognizable form. I would be happy to take any questions you may have about Bylaws & Policies! I would really like to make them much more well known throughout WIUM Key Club, because I think a well-informed Key Club might run more smoothly, and I believe that District Board members, Club Board members, and regular members can all learn something new from it! -Stephanie Rink, Bylaws & Policies Chair Email: wium.bylaws@gmail.com
