Ordinary Meetings are to be held for the membership to advise the executive on the running of the club. Specifically, you would hold an Ordinary Meeting for:
- Changing bank signatories
- Gaining membership endorsement on proposed expenditure, merchandise, or events
- Creating a Committee or Subcommittee and appointing the members of that body
- Dismissing executives under section 4.3 of the Constitution
General meetings can be held for the above, as well as for:
- Rescinding a decision made at an Ordinary Meeting
- Granting Honorary Membership, should your Society bestow it
- Amending the Constitution
- Dismissing Executive Members for failing to adequately perform their duties
- Elections to fill vacancies in the Executive
- Dissolving the society
Annual General Meetings should be held in the AGM month, and can contain all of the above items. They are also held for the purpose of:
- Annual Registration
- Annual Re-elections (all positions need to be re-elected for)
- Annual address of President and Treasurer
If you're not sure what meeting needs to be held, you can get in touch by emailing clubs@usu.edu.au
