A permanent honorary membership may be granted by the Board of Directors to any person, who is not a regular member, but has made significant contribution to this organization or whose membership shall benefit NWCS significantly. Board Directors whose children have graduated from school shall still be regular members until they leave their positions in the Board of Directors. Membership shall be accepted without regard for age, color, creed, sex, or national origin. However, one may refuse membership in NWCS by presenting a written notice to the Board of Directors. Such refusal will not affect the student's status or dues, fees, and assessments payable.
All regular members are eligible to vote and be voted.
No NWCS member may represent, make commitments or otherwise act as an agent for NWCS without the express consent of the Board of Directors. The cooperative power, the control of the business, and properties of NWCS shall be vested by a Board of Directors as described by these by-laws. Only regular directors have voting power at Board meetings. Each regular director can serve no more than two terms consecutively. A board meeting shall be called by the Chair when requested by two or more directors.
