Honor Council

Minutes

'It's a great day to be on Honor Council, it's the best job I know.

It's a great day to be on Honor Council, everywhere I go, go, go, go.

No more no and never, good-bye doubt and fear.

It's a great day to be on Honor Council and to be of good cheer.

I love my job! I love my job! I love my job!'

-Taught to Honor Council by Ramien Pierre.

II. JSAAPP - Emily reported that last week's JSAAPP meeting focused primarily on the Party Guidelines that were recently distributed to the community. She mentioned that JSAAPP hosted a community discussion last Wednesday in order to address the many questions that party hosts and community members have posed about the new guidelines. Although JSAAPP addressed many questions and concerns at this meeting, they recognize that there is a need for further discussion. JSAAPP stressed that these guidelines are preliminary and won't be put into effect until they feel that they have addressed the community's concerns through continued discussion. JSAAPP plans to host another community discussion to which the deans will be invited. It was also noted that the heads of JSAAPP recently held a party to test out the new guidelines. Finally, JSAAPP will be holding elections in the near future for Freshman and Junior Reps. Anyone with questions about these or other issues should contact the JSAAPP heads, Adam Freed or Aaron Taylor.

III. Survey - Daphne and Laura met to discuss and formulate the forthcoming Honor Council Survey. They will email the survey to Council members for approval and hope to begin tabling in the DC on Thursday. So please stop by the table and give us your opinions.

IV. Contact Person Training - Elizabeth reminded Honor Council that Contact Person Training will be next Sunday for those Council members interested in learning about how to be a Contact Person. The Contact Person is the uninvolved Honor Council member responsible for explaining procedure, delivering decisions, and answering questions for and to the confronted and confronting parties in a given procedure.

V. Joint Panel Procedures - Anthony reported that he, Dan, Morgan, Christina, and Elizabeth have been meeting with Randy Milden and Mary Lou Allen (EEOC Officer) to revise and update the Joint Panel Procedures. Some of the discussion of these procedures has centered around the issue of rape and sexual assault cases, but the general consensus among the group is that this is an issue that needs to be addressed on a community-wide level. Anthony noted that the committee hopes to finalize the revisions this week.
