PART 3: CONCLUSION ARTICLE V Meetings Section 1: Frequency and Purpose of Board Meetings Executive board meetings are called as needed, with a minimum of once per month. Most board meetings are closed to the team, but concerns voiced by team members will be discussed at these meetings. If an issue arises in which a vote is required, all officers are given one vote. In the case of a tie, deliberation continues until the deadlock is broken. If further discussion cannot break the deadlock, the president s vote shall represent the tie-breaker. This method, however, shall only be used as a last resort as unanimity and then simple majority should be sought insofar as possible.
9 Section 2: Minimum Attendance Requirements for Board Meetings Executive board members are required to attend at least 2/3 of all meetings and notify the board if they are not able to attend a meeting. ARTICLE VI Team Structure and Lessons Section 1: General Overview There are four dance levels within the BDT: Beginners, C, B, and A. A fifth level, Pre-C, is added as the need arises. Beginner and Pre-C lessons occur once per week while the A, B, and C teams have two lessons per week. Official practices occur four times per week, two of which are coached by A or B level members. Section 2: Payment of Lesson Fees 1. In order to participate on the A, B, C, and Pre-C teams, members of these levels are required to pay for these lessons, which include the cost of instructors as well as to rent to the practice venue. The total monthly cost of these lessons will be split up equally amongst the members in that level. Failure to pay the balance may result in a verbal or written notification from the executive board. 2. At the A, B, C level (and Pre-C level when applicable), members are expected to pay for a full month s worth of lessons each month, whether they were able to attend the lessons or not. 3. Two weeks advanced notice is required if a couple will be messing lessons for more than one month, in which case they would be excused from payment for that month. Failure to give notice will result in paying for the full month. Section 3: Minimum Attendance Requirements for Lessons 1. There is no minimum attendance requirement for the beginner level. Members of the A, B, C, and Pre-C levels are expected to attend the lessons regularly. If a person or couple in the A, B, C, or Pre-C level fails to attend lessons regularly, they will be asked to
10 justify the absences and may be asked to relinquish their place in the lesson. ARTICLE VII Committees Supporting committees may be created by the decision of the executive board when the need arises for extra help, such as during the annual University of Michigan Ballroom Dance Competition. All decisions made by a committee may be overturned by a majority vote of the executive board. See Amendment III. ARTICLE VIII Finances BDT finances its activities through university funding, monetary allocations from the university of Michigan Ballroom Dance Club, as well as two types of membership dues explained below. The team treasurer is responsible for the finances of the organization. Section 1: Semester Dues Students interested in joining the team are first given 3 free trial lessons. Afterwards they are asked to pay a semester fee of $55, which covers all lessons and practices during the semester. Members of the Pre-C team or higher are required to pay a $60 membership fee each semester prior to tryouts. Section 2: Monthly Dues Members of the A, B, C, Pre-C levels are required to pay monthly dues as stipulated in Article VII to help pay for weekly classes. These lessons, however, ma be partially subsidized by the team and the executive board decides the amount of this subsidization at the beginning of each semester. Remaining lesson fees are then split equally amongst the members in each dance level. ARTICLE VIII Amendments
11 Section 1: Adding Amendments Constitutional by-laws can be amended by a majority (5/9) vote on the executive board.
