"Let us go signing as far as we go -- the road will be less tedious"
The GJCL Executive Board met for their first in-person meeting on March 27th to decide on specifics and logistics for the State Convention. Again, full details, including the tentative schedule, are published in the GJCL Convention FAX.
You can find the minutes on the GJCL website from this meeting. But here is also a recap to provide you with an outline as you consider how you will attend:
Four new proposed amendments:
1) First changes language about rotating positions and accounts for newer positions.
2) Second clarifies that the Treasurer, as opposed to the other State Chairs, cannot serve a tern no longer than six years.
3) Third outlines the duties of a Treasurer, such as furnishing books and recording an account to the Records Chair.
4) Last amendment accounts for digital changes made to the Editor's duties. With the new change, the Editor can send either paper or digital copies of each editor of the Alae Mercurii to all chapters of the GJCL (to leave it up to the Editor's prerogative).
State Convention Specifics:
The Student officers agreed on the specifics and logistics for the State Convention, including the dance theme and decoration plans, uniforms, corrections to the program, Salutatio and Valedicto speeches, open ludi, community service awards, movie, procession, Bazaar, and Coin Wars.

3. Officer Instagram Takeovers
From March 19th to March 26th, the GJCL officers took turns taking over the GJCL Instagram as they introduced themselves and asked members to submit questions for them to answer.
This was a fun way for the officers to connect more with everyone, and everyone was glad to have answered interesting, and productive questions during the process!
