This is the subject of the next section. +3. Introduction of the Vice Presidents, Events +All of the events of the society is a massive burden to place upon a single executive. Hence the proposition here, is to create two positions: +The Vice President, Events (A). +The Vice President, Events (B). + +Who, as their names imply, will be responsible for running the events of the society. + +To ensure that: +All important events are run, and +The balance of work is even between the two Vice Presidents, Events, +The Vice Presidents, Events, will be required by (policy/bylaws/board procedures?) to submit a motion at the beginning of term to Council, detailing which events each one will run. The motion must pass as part of the responsibilities of the executives. The reason for this is twofold: +Preassigning events to either role would be poor marketing, as people might get a mixed bag of what they’d like. Allowing the two VPEs to pick would likely make them more enthusiastic about their events. +Having this as a motion rather than a report allows the council to ensure that the workload is sufficiently balanced between the two executives. If this were simply a report, then one VPE could run 2 events, and leave the other VPE to run the rest. +Since a report is not a motion that can pass/fail, it would be tricky to define Council’s approval, after all, the executives could simply ignore council’s disapproval of such a report and face no repercussions. + +Hence the VPEs will tackle the aforementioned event pool. A suitable subset of the following will be required by (policy/bylaws/board procedures?) to be present in the total set of events run by both VPEs (the precise subset is to be determined, but it’ll likely be derived from existing responsibilities regarding these events): +Existing VPI events +Mental health events +Academic events +Intersociety events, such as Soccer, Hockey, etc. +4. Analysis +Let us examine, preliminarily, the difference in the workload for each executive: +VPF: unchanged. +Rationale: there are not many responsibilities for the VPF, they are simply large in time and work. For example, cheque requests are consistent throughout the term. +Splitting these responsibilities would likely cause more accounting issues than help, and is better suited to having multiple volunteers. +VPC: will receive MathSoc Cartoons. +Rationale: VPC isn’t an incredibly heavy workload, and MathSoc Cartoons is a mostly autonomous association. +VPO: will receive the responsibility of volunteer management. +Rationale: VPO also isn’t an incredibly heavy workload, and this volunteer management responsibility is a one-off somewhat time consuming task. Later on in the term the VPO’s workload becomes much lighter; the start of the term is quite heavy as they need to deal with lockers, volunteer hiring and training, restocking the office, etc. +VPA: will be alleviated of the academic events. +Rationale: the VPA isn’t really the best prepared position to run events. The workload of advocacy issues is quite high as-is, and these events are quite orthogonal to the main priority of the VPA which should be academic advocacy. +President: will be alleviated of mental health events, and be given clubs. +Rationale: the President is already often the main point of contact for clubs. The President is very much a “run around and put out fires” kind of role, and clubs are very flammable in this analogy. +Mental health events could sensibly be either the President’s responsibility (due to the mental health nature) or the VPEs’ responsibility (due to the event nature), but the President’s role isn’t exactly light, and with the introduction of the two VPEs, we’ll likely have the manpower there to help (in terms of volunteers) and plan (in terms of executives). +VPI: dissolved. +VPEs: handle all events. +Rationale: An effective VPI in the past would make good use of volunteers to run events, and would spend a great deal of time planning and budgeting events. Having this pool of volunteers to help with the other events would be incredibly useful, and planning the non-traditionally-VPI events is quite similar to planning any other events. +Obviously having all of the events run by a single executive would be a maddening amount of work. VPI is an incredibly heavy workload mainly because of the events the role must run. Hence, having two executives would considerably alleviate the workload, and allow for more breathing room, and even space for more events should they desire. diff --git a/policies/alcohol_reimbursement.tex b/policies/alcohol_reimbursement.tex index c4eebb4..a356cb5 100644 --- a/policies/alcohol_reimbursement.tex +++ b/policies/alcohol_reimbursement.tex @@ -15,8 +15,8 @@ \section{Provision and Reimbursement of Alcohol} The use of student fees to reimburse alcohol for non-student participants at student focused events is permitted, if approved by the President and the Vice President Finance, and reimbursement of alcohol for student consumption has already been approved for the event (eg. reimbursement for professors at Party with Profs is an acceptable use of society funds). -The reimbursement for student purchase and consumption of alcohol at society events is restricted to that which complies with the policies and procedures herein established, and is pre-approved by the MathSoc Council (or in the absence or inability of the Council the unanimous agreement of the Vice President Finance, President, and Vice President Internal).
