transparent to the students; and
WHEREAS, Senators in the past have voted on resolutions and the public may or may

RESOLVED, By the Student Government of Wright State University here
8
assembled, that:
9
(1) Article V Section 5.02 of the Student Government Constitution be
10
amended to reflect this change by inserting the following part D after
11
Section 5.02 C saying “The Senate of the SG cannot vote on any
12
resolution before putting it on new business in at least one public
13
meeting. The resolution must be allowed for the public to discuss the
14
resolution during the public forum section of the agenda. The only
15
exclusion to this rule would be that the President of Student
16
Government announces online for a public senate meeting with at least
17
72 hours before the meeting would occur.”
