Parliamentary Nuggets

I've been asked to serve as the senate parliamentarian for a few years now, and have informally helped out our Local and our SGO. To assist folks who may have missed a presentation or email, I've decided to post the Robert's tutorials I put together. They are available in powerpoint and in pdf versions. Pick your poison.

 

  • These files provide a primer on the job responsbilities for the usual list of officers in an organization:  Officers (ppt) (pdf)
  • These files provide a primer on how to make and handle some common motions that come up during meetings: Basics (ppt) (pdf)

Other Parliamentary Resources

Parliamentary Procedure Online: This is a pretty complete site dedicated to the rules, and includes a helpful tutorial.

Robert's Rules Online: This is a public domain version of the 1915 edition, and thus not quite up to date, but you'll get the drift of it.

Frequently Asked Questions

As issues arise at our senate and local, I thought it would be helpful to keep track of the rulings, on the assumption that similar issues may arise again. These are arranged alphabetically by topic.
