This is the combined blog for the members of the Alumni Governance Task Force, a body commissioned jointly by the Association of Alumni (AOA) and the Alumni Council. As volunteers, we have a developed a constitution that reforms many alumni governance processes, providing for greater transparency, greater democracy, and greater opportunities for broad alumni involvement. Use the search box (above) to view our archives to see the discussions that occurred throughout the comment-gathering period. Please join the AOA Blog for an ongoing discussion of these issues. If you have questions, contact us directly by sending an email to AGTaskForce [at] alum [dot] dartmouth [dot] org; it will go to all of us, and we will respond to your email.
Our proposed constitution was rejected, as were all of the petition amendments, so we have the status quo of two separate constitutions. 49% of voters approved the constitution, while 51% rejected it. Voter participation reached 38%, a record high for any alumni election at Dartmouth.
While disappointing, we are encouraged by the high turnout, and hope that there will continue to be a similar level of engagement in the affairs of the College.
