Voting and Quorum

All committee members are voting members, and quorum will be defined as “the majority of voting members.” When voting on recommendation to the VPAA, there must be a majority of voting members or quorum present to proceed. Votes will be counted by Yeas and Nays. In order for a recommendation to pass the majority of quorum in attendance must vote Yea, thus preserving the need for at least two-thirds approval.
