Background

The Board of Directors is the governing body of the organization. The board could benefit from being able to carry institutional knowledge across elections. In the past 2 elections this effect has occurred naturally during elections(50% of board members have been reelected and 50% have been new members). This proposal seeks to incorporate this trend into the Bylaws.

Elections for President, Secretary, PR Director, and the Director at Large not in the most recent election, will be elected on January. Elections for Vice President, Treasurer, CTO, and the Director at Large not in the most recent election, will be elected in June.
