CSCA - Women’s Caucus By-Law revision for your review PLUS Benefit for Milwaukee Women's Center

The Women’s Caucus has discussed at the past two business meetings revising the bylaws to reflect a change in how we distribute award money to top papers and panels in our division. We are allotted $100. In the past we have divided this between the top paper and the top panel, $50 each. The consensus at the business meeting has been that this should be changed to $50 for the top paper and $50 for the top student paper. The top panel will still receive recognition, but no monetary award.

The bylaws require that any changes be distributed to the membership at least 30 days in advance of the business meeting, thus we are distributing them to you now for your review so we may vote on them at our business meeting in Milwaukee.

Please click on the link, Womens Caucus Amernded CSCA Byalws 2014, to review the revised portion of the bylaws. Many thanks to Amy Aldridge Sanford for her assistance in drafting the changes to the document.

See you in Milwaukee!

Karla Bergen and Jen Rome,
Co-Chairs, CSCA Women’s Caucus
