OFFICER UPDATES

Editor Reagan Labert

Salvete ! After the Spring Council Meeting , I assisted the VJCL officers in planning for the National Convention and detailed several aspects of this process in the spring Forum . While I was unable to attend National Convention , I had so much fun receiving updates from the attendees and seeing the merit of all of VJCL ’ s hard work . Currently , I am looking to collect testimonials from anyone who attended Nats--both teachers and students alike--to include in the fall edition of the Forum . If you or anyone you know attended National Convention and would like to provide a quick testimonial about their experiences , please do not hesitate to contact me ! Currently , I am working on the Fall Forum , which I plan to publish in early October , and am assisting in the planning of the VJCL Convention .

Historian Hannah Urdanick

Since our last meeting , I have completed the 2022-2023 VJCL scrapbook and had the pleasure of submitting it to the NJCL scrapbook contest . It won 3rd place ! I have also continued to help my fellow officers in any way possible , and began planning and organizing for the VJCL Convention .

Parliamentarian Sam Mund

Hello ! Over the summer I was attending meetings and helping out Ash with planning for Spirit at Nats . Speaking of Nats , while I was there I attended NomCom , the Amendments meeting , and a candidate questionnaire , taking notes at all three . At NomCom , I voted on behalf of the State who I thought the best candidates were to present to the rest of the delegation . I led a two hour fellowship meeting to discuss candidates and amendments . I was able to give information on the candidates , without sharing my own opinions . I fielded questions on the candidates , amendment , and what the amendments would mean if they were put in place . I also was a leader in spirit , and helped finish off creating the props . I am now focused on Convention , and preparing for that . I also have an amendment proposal in the event someone has to leave office in the middle of their term . It ’ s going to be a busy few months , but I am excited !
