Talk Mensa With Me

Dizzy trying to find out which way Mensa is going? Make this one of your stops to find out about the ins and outs of American Mensa, Ltd. (AML).

Interested in the happenings of Metropolitan Washington Mensa? I'll be able to either directly answer your questions regarding the running of the chapter (certainly through Oct. 31, 2011, my last day as LocSec) or forward you to the appropriate person who can do so.

If you want to get in touch with me, contact me at boxmaster@alumni.williams.edu or just click on any of the "comments" links throughout this blog.

Final tally of signatures on bylaws amendment proposals


I just received the notification that was sent to the Bylaws Committee and the Chair of the Election Committee the results of the attempt to get signatures on the various petitions:

138     Change Nominating Committee to Search Committee
130     New hearings procedure
135     Recall elections
137     Replacement of Regional Vice-Chairmen
138     Removal of past chairmen from the American Mensa Committee

As none of the above received the needed 250 signatures, none of them will appear on the ballot. Also, as Lee didn't formally submit his petitions to receive signatures on the website (and didn't send in any hardcopy petitions), none of the six that he had put on this group and had submitted for comment to the Bylaws Committee and the Interpretive Counsel will be on the ballot either.

Only the two amendment proposals passed earlier this term by the AMC will be on the referendum ballot.

Delay in future comments

Apologies to anyone else submitting comments in the next several days. I will not be available to make sure they get on in as timely a manner as I would like. Fear not, though, they will get on.
