This is your Grand Marshal, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the officers (and the one bystander) who attended the 2015 Summit at Golden Road Brewery last night. We had a very productive evening. Many bylaws were changed and much beer was drank. So, let&#8217;s get down to business&#8230; What happened?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bylaws<\/strong><br \/>\nThe main changes are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Chancellors gained much power this meeting! They are now able to cast one vote toward a triumvirate based on a majority of Chancellors present at a given time, as opposed to all existing Chancellors.<\/li>\n<li>Bylaws expire on a paragraph basis instead of a sentence basis.<\/li>\n<li>If the March last 25 years, all expired and repealed bylaws will come back into effect for the Silver Anniversary.<\/li>\n<li>MaST members have to earn their one point by triumvirate vote every year (mostly just a clarification).<\/li>\n<li>Team flair was challenged on basis of people not following it, but in the end was renewed for 3 more years.<\/li>\n<li>No achievements expired, but the Paleontologist achievement is now entitled &#8220;Stromatolite.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Clarified that achievements are earned forever, whether or not the bylaw is repealed or expires.<\/li>\n<li>A new ridiculous achievement involving the number 4 was added. It will get its own article before the next March.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Teams<\/strong><br \/>\nMuch discussion of last year&#8217;s by-constitutional crisis ensued. The result is that there is one section of bylaws that say that team members must swear or affirm loyalty to the team in a manner specified by the captain. As a pilot project, we will be asking team captains what their loyalty oath is so that we have a little more evidence in case there is a team dispute.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Karaoke<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Grand Marshal attempted to sing <em>Creep<\/em> by Radiohead with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/casualencounterskaraoke\">Casual Encounters Band<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Musical Instruments<\/strong><br \/>\nOne point about the Grand Marshal no longer bringing a bugle was brought up. The Grand MArshal is sad to announce he has no idea where the bugle went.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beers<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/untappd.com\/user\/Jeshii\">Many<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/untappd.com\/\">untappd<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/untappd.com\/user\/tknkldfklty\">friends<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/untappd.com\/user\/abbunnycake\">were<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/untappd.com\/user\/Rebelx24\">made<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Next up!
