organization but is unique to Tennessee Tech. A friendly amendment was made
to Article IV: B to change the wording from "Any member of The Eclectic
Society may be elected to office, provided that the member intends to be a

semesters." A friendly amendment was also made to add the description of
the officers of The Eclectic Society as part of Article IV. A. Mr. Boucher
handed out copies of the description of the officers and said this will be
included as part of Article IV.A. It was also pointed out that the word
"tolerance" should be substituted for "toleration" in Article VIII.D. Dr.
Kemp MOVED that the question be called. MOTION CARRIED.
