A prescribed agenda was followed and other material was discussed only if time permitted. While attempting their yearly talk of revising the constitution. Student Council members decided it was time to completely update our book of rules. Consequently, the long process of rewriting the constitution was undertaken. With the goal of raising money for their respective classes, sophomore, junior and senior executive boards met when the need arose.
