Thanks, General Robert

Snow, but not enough to cancel school.

Yuck.

Student Council meeting today. I'll be showing the little runts how to conduct a meeting. Order of business, basic parliamentary procedure, how to make a motion, etc. The bad part about Robert's Rules is that there is no Robert's for kids....that I know of, at least.

This will be a fun meeting, though.

Hell, come to think of it, wouldn't it be nice if my frat meetings followed Robert's Rules? That's what bugs me the most about organizations in general. The parliamentary authority is clearly identified in the bylaws, but nobody makes it a point to learn even the basics.

It's not even that difficult to learn.

But ah, whatever. I guess I complain too much.

Check out a book called, "Roberta's Rules of Order" by Alice Collier Cochran. A different and more simplified approach to running meetings.
