want to know
By HOLLY KENNEDY
Assistant to the Grand Madam President
Grand Auxiliary Office Coordinator
If you would like to volunteer for one of the Grand Auxiliary Committees
at our 59th Grand Auxiliary Convention in Louisville, please report to
the Grand Auxiliary Office upon your arrival in Louisville. We are always
looking for extra helping hands and know that our Sisters are the best!
Grand Madam President Jean Kerr has designated the following days
during the Grand Auxiliary Sessions. The Session Dress Code will still
apply. However, the following may be worn on the day indicated below.
Monday, August 16: Jean Kerr’s Colors Day – All Fall Colors (Orange,
Green, Red, Brown); Tuesday, August 17: T-Shirt Day; Wednesday,
August 18: Horse Attire/Western Day; Thursday, August 19: Mary
Myers’ Colors Day (Kelly Green, Silver and White).
If the Madam President asks the Vice President to preside so that she could
be involved in a debate, who would be eligible to vote for that motion?
Robert’s Rules of Order Newly Revised 10th Edition reads as follows:
If the presiding officer is a member of the society, he has – as an individual
– the same rights in debate as any other member; but the impartiality
required of the chair in an assembly precludes his exercising these rights
while he is presiding. Normally, especially in a large body, he should have
nothing to say on the merits of pending questions. On certain occasions –
which should be extremely rare – the presiding officer may believe that a
crucial factor relating to such a question has been overlooked and that his
obligation as a member to call attention to the point outweighs his duty to
preside at that time. To participate in debate, he must relinquish the chair;
and in such case he should turn the chair over:
(a) To the vice president;
(b) To the ranking vice president who has not spoken on the question and
does not decline on the grounds of wishing to speak on it;
(c) If no such vice-president is in the room, to some other member qualified
as in (b), whom the chair designates (and who is assumed to receive
the assembly’s approval by unanimous consent unless member(s) then
nominate another person(s), in which case the presiding officer’s choice is
also treated as a nominee and the matter is decided by vote).
The presiding officer who relinquished the chair should not return to it
until the pending main question has been disposed of, since he has shown
himself to be a partisan where that particular matter is concerned. Indeed,
unless a presiding officer is extremely sparing in leaving the chair to take
part in debate, he may destroy members’ confidence in the impartiality of
his approach to the task of presiding.
In debate on an appeal or a point of order that the chair has submitted to
the judgment of the assembly, the foregoing rule does not apply, and the
presiding officer does not leave the chair, since his participation in the
debate relates to the function of presiding.
