The Residence Hall Association will discuss making three amendments to its constitution Thursday.

The RHA is suggesting a more official application process for officer nominations, said Keven Leverence, RHA president.

The proposed process would ask candidates to write why they want the position and provide a resume.

Leverence also said members will discuss extending the term of the National Communication Coordination/Illinois Communication Coordination representative from one semester as an officer-elect and two semesters as an officer to two semesters as an officer-elect and two semesters as an officer.

The change would enable the representative to “become more comfortable” in the position, Leverence said.

It would also help to fill the position if the current representative leaves, as was the case this past fall.

A motion to lower the required number of meetings attended in order to run for an executive board position will also be discussed.

“This will give those who attend meetings regularly a chance to vote,” Leverence said.

Previous requirements dictated a candidate attend seven meetings to be eligible to run for a position. If the amendment passes, that number will be lowered to four.

Other items on the agenda include announcing delegations for the National Association of College and University Residence Halls and taking nominations for the executive positions of president, vice president, vice president of finance, and financial secretary.

Leverence said to be eligible for an executive position, candidates must live in a residence hall, attend RHA meetings as a voting member and have a grade point average of at least 2.25.

Resident Assistants are not eligible for an executive position.

Elections will be held on April 11.

The RHA meets at 5 p.m. in Taylor Hall.
