Procedures for Change

Before going into procedural details, I'm looking for a few students who would like to join me at the LSA meeting on Monday Nov 17, 2008 (time TBA) to make a motion and discuss with the LSA exec and the Faculty Council regarding the progress on this issue. My voice alone may not be strong enough and if you care about the change, this is an opportunity. Please email s.manow@gmail.com if you are interested.

My last meeting with VP-Academic was in mid-October. The LSA proposed to form a research group to gather neutral information regarding the change to J.D. from various sources including other schools and alumni. No one really knows when this research group will be formed. Some students have suggested that the research project is irrelevant to the voting in a referendum. This should also be discussed in the meeting on Nov 17.

  1. Has a time been decided? I think we should have a referendum. A study will just stall things even longer.

  2. Agreed. We've had referendums launched by students on less important issues, I see no reason why we shouldn't have a referendum to mandate the LSA to lobby for a particular option.
