Original Article or Passage from the Constitution

5.D. “Good Standing”

In order to be in good standing with RIT Launch Initiative, members must stay in good standing as students of the Rochester Institute of Technology, as well as abide by all expectations set forth by Section 5.C, while attending the majority of RIT Launch General Meetings, either online or in person, and/or actively participate in, or support a sub-team as determined by that team's lead.

Amended Article or Passage

5.D. “Good Standing”

In order to be in good standing with RIT Launch Initiative, members must stay in good standing as students of the Rochester Institute of Technology, and abide by all expectations set forth by Section 5.C. To maintain one's 'Good Standing,' members must exhibit commitment to and responsibility over assigned action items. 

5.D.1: Actionable Conduct

Any member that does not complete assigned tasks, or attend team meetings for multiple weeks without communicating with their lead, an E-Board Officer, or the Admin Team may have the following actions taken upon them:

  • Loss of the privilege to represent RIT Launch Initiative in any facet
  • Denial of Attendance to the Performance Team Open House
  • Denial of attendance to team launches
  • Removal from their team
  • Prevention from purchasing team apparel

Any action taken against team members for lack of commitment must be approved by the majority of the Admin Team before, and only before, said action is to take place. Any Officer found to have taken action against a team member without notifying and discussing said action with the Admin Team will cause the Admin Team to enact Section 5.I: Procedure for Executive and Project Lead Revocation of Position.

Purpose of Amendment

We the Launch Officers of the 2023-24 term do hereby amend the Constitution. We have decided to amend Section 5.D. and add a new subsection – 4.D.1 – in order to expand the definition of what constitutes Good Standing, and give Officers the authority to act when members do not take responsibility over their assigned action items. 5.D.1 also includes a protection statement for members against potential malicious action from a team lead.
