[FASS] Treasurer applications, AGM, and more

[FASS President]

Hello FASSies,

We had a great Winter show - thank you to everyone who participated as well
as to everyone who came to see the show and support us! Now it is time to
prepare for the FASS Annual General Meeting (AGM). The AGM itself is
tentatively scheduled for April 6 or 7 (exact detail to be determined.)

In this e-mail:
 (1) Treasurer Applications
 (2) Constitutional Amendments
 (3) FASS Honour Roll

*(1) Treasurer Applications*

First things first, we need a new treasurer to help review the financials
for the past year and to join the next Board. The treasurer is responsible
for:
 - Preparing and presenting a draft budget for the 2019/2020 year (with the
help of the Board)
 - Handling expense forms and preparing reimbursement cheques
 - Maintaining a record of FASS financials
and other responsibilities - please see the Constitution
<https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B97c6q2P8ufWWDRKUlhoX2VQekk/view> Article
4 Section 4.

*Applications for treasurer will be accepted until Saturday, March 30th*.
Anyone interested is encouraged to reach out ASAP, so we can arrange a
mutually agreeable time to meet with the Board for a brief interview.

*Inquiries and applications should be sent to me (prez at fass.uwaterloo.ca
<prez at fass.uwaterloo.ca>).* You are also encouraged to connect with our
current treasurer Drini (treasurer at fass.uwaterloo.ca) to learn more about
the position.

*(2) Constitutional Amendments*

The Constitution
<https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B97c6q2P8ufWWDRKUlhoX2VQekk/view> governs
all aspects of how FASS operates. Changes to the constitution are brought
forward by the Board and voted on at the AGM.* If you would like to propose
changes* that you believe would benefit FASS, *please contact me by Sunday,
March 24.*

Any changes to be voted on at the AGM will be included in the official AGM
announcement and agenda, which will be sent closer to the date of the AGM.
See the Constitution
<https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B97c6q2P8ufWWDRKUlhoX2VQekk/view> Article
6 for details.

*(3) FASS Honour Roll*

The Honour Roll <http://fass.uwaterloo.ca/honour-roll> recognizes people
who have made exceptional contributions to FASS:
a) Outstanding or devoted contributions to a single area (technical, acting,
writing, etc.).
b) Involvement in all areas.
c) Assuming jobs that no one else will take (“Riding the FASS railroad”).

*If you would like to nominate someone for the Honour Roll, please contact
me by Sunday, March 24.*

The Board will vote on nominations and announce our selection ahead of the
AGM. Uncontested nominations will become official at the AGM. Please see
the Principles and Guidelines
<https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bx-A4jIvVJRVN0V6NWhEU1V5aFU/view> section

Sincerely,
