- Robert ’ s Rules of Order
After stating your JCL ’ s name , it ’ s only natural to establish what it does ! Every organization has an object , purpose , or goal , and the NJCL is no different .
Robert ’ s Rules suggest that Article II be the object or purpose of an organization .
The NJCL has three objectives .
The object of the NJCL shall be to :
A . promote a more thorough knowledge of classical life , history , and literature ;
B . impart a better understanding of the practical and cultural value of the classics ;
C . interest other students in the classical languages and literature , government , laws , and arts .
