Pursuant to the ruling of the Chair that was challenged and uphelp on March 13, 2009, the Board of Administration of the Federation confirms its agreement to support the Chair's ruling and use its powers under 3.1.4 of the Constitution to ratify the ruling of the CHair to exempt a portion of the provisions of by-law 3.1.10.8.8 and allow the vote to go forward regarding the "2009 Election Appeal".
Pursuant to the BOA of the Federations powers under 3.1.4 of the constitution, the BOA of the Federation shall notify the SAC of the Federation that the Chair's ruling is not subject to arbitration pursuant to by-law 8.2.4. Any such decision will be disregarded."
No, last time technically they only needed 1/3+1 to break the rules (since you need 2/3 to challenge the chair).
However, the BOA shouldn't be able to PREVENT an appeal from going to the SAC. (And there was one appeal of Federico's decision.) Certainly not with 50%+1.
Dean still thinks that 3.1.4 gives the BOA power to violate the constitution, apparently...
The original raison-d'être of this blog was to liveblog the Board of Administration meetings and let students know about all of the crazy shit that goes down.
However, the promise of iPods influenced us to stray from this path for a bit to cover the 2009 SFUO elections. Since then, we've been covering a bit of everything SFUO-related.
If you've got tips about exciting things on campus, let us know by emailing us at boavoice.blog@gmail.com.
