ACUPA colleagues, As it does throughout the year, your ACUPA board of directors tracks and considers changes to the ACUPA bylaws<http://c.ymcdn.com/sites/acupa.site-ym.com/resource/resmgr/docs/acupa_bylaws_current.pdf>, with an eye toward providing clarity and strengthening the organization. At this year's annual meeting of the full membership, which will take place in just two weeks at ACUPA 2017, ACUPA members will have the opportunity to discuss all proposed bylaws changes. In addition, members in good standing are welcome to suggest their own changes to the bylaws. A vote of the full membership, on any changes, will take place via the website after the annual meeting. You can read about the two major changes recommended by the ACUPA board of directors in this issue of the ACUPAexchange<http://acupa.site-ym.com/?page=Newsletter_June_2017>, our quarterly newsletter. Additionally, you can see all of the changes<https://c.ymcdn.com/sites/acupa.site-ym.com/resource/resmgr/docs/ACUPA_Bylaws_40.pdf>, most of which are small and clarifying, as a black-lined document on the ACUPA website.
In addition, all changes submitted by members in good standing to the board of directors by June 16 will be considered and, where appropriate, added to the agenda for the annual meeting. Submit your suggested changes to the bylaws<http://acupa.site-ym.com/surveys/?id=ByLaws_Changes>. I look forward to seeing many of you in two weeks!
