Title 15 - Greek
Organizations and Autonomy Agreement
Section 1: Legislative Intent: It is the intent of the University of Colorado Student Union to provide
advocacy, facilitate discussion, and support our members when issues of concern
arise. The UCSU formally accepts Vice Chancellor Stump’s invitation to
co-facilitate a discussion between the Greek Community, the greater University
Community, and University Administrators about the student experience within
the Greek Community and the manner in which that positive experience may be
most readily realized. This discussion may include potential alterations to
the Registered Fraternal Organization Agreement, educational and support
services provided to Greek organizations, and recognition of the self-initiated
improvements made by the CU Greek Community. Additionally, the discussion
surrounding fraternal organizations has served as a catalyst for a separate
discussion about the 1985 autonomy agreement. The Legislative Council
acknowledges that there is a need for a continued conversation between the UCSU
and the University to ensure that there is a clear understanding about the role
the UCSU plays in the University Community generally and in the operation of
the UCSU cost centers specifically.
Section 2: RFOA Discussion: The
Legislative Council authorizes and encourages the Executive(s) and members of
the Legislative Council to participate in the discussion. Any discussion
relating to the use of a UCSU Cost Center service shall include members of the
Joint Board with jurisdiction over the cost center.
Section 3: Autonomy Agreement Review: The Executive(s) and members of the Legislative
Council shall enter into a discussion with Vice Chancellor Stump and, when
appropriate, Chancellor Peterson to 1) determine whether the autonomy agreement
requires revision or clarification, and if so, 2) to begin the process of
drafting revisions to the 1985 Autonomy Agreement.
a)
Review Board: The Legislative
Council hereby establishes an Autonomy Agreement Review Board that shall
consist of the Executive(s); the Legislative Council President, First Vice
President, and Second Vice President.
Section 4: No officer of
the UCSU may bind or otherwise commit the UCSU to a position unless that
position is formally adopted through a bill or resolution by the Legislative
Council and presented to the Executive(s) for their consideration. Those
persons participating in the discussions authorized by section 2 or 3 of this
title shall provide regular updates to the Legislative Council.
Section 5: Appropriation:
The UCSU Proper is authorized to use up to $2500 in either its FY06-07 fund
balance or SOR to fund any incidental costs associated with the implementation
of this Title, including but not limited to, the use of an independent legal
professional. No monies appropriated under this section may be spent without
the approval of the Executive(s) and the Legislative Council President, First
Vice President, and Second Vice President.
SECTION 2: This bill shall become effective upon passage by a majority, present and voting, of the Legislative Council.
