Board Governance
The Board of Trustees follow Robert's Rules of Order, a parliamentary procedure comprised of a set of codes and rules of ethics to ensure orderly meetings in addition to the Board's Bylaws. The parliamentary procedure allows majority to rule while ensuring minority voices are heard, and that all discussions can reach a consensus in a respectful and collegial manner.
In relation, Business Minutes are not published until the Board of Trustees have approved the minutes at a subsequent meeting.
