Description

We currently require in the DB code that all presidents and treasurers are students. Our rules state that only half of presidents and treasurers (rounded up) need to be students.

  • Milestone changed from Sometime to The Distant Future
  • Priority changed from major to minor

I think the theory here is that you don't need to list all your presidents or treasurers, so just as you did with the old DB, if you have two presidents, only one of whom is a student, you put down the student. You don't really need to list both.

Relatedly, what's your source for the "only half" claim? The recognition procedures say that constitutions must include a "Definition of officer positions, which must include provisions for president and treasurer (or corresponding officers). Those two positions shall be required to be distinct MIT students.", which implies that they need to be all-students.
