The officers should seek to lead the other members and not do all the work themselves. One goal should be to put every member to work.
Active members are committed and feel a part of the chapter.
Inactive members soon become observers. According to the 1987 Chapter Handbook, the governing body of Sigma Tau Delta must consist of five main officers who form the Executive Committee of the Society. Our Cal Poly chapter is advised by Dr. Debora Schwartz, who oversees six members of the Executive Committee. The following are officers descriptions according to the handbook, with specific notes where Cal Poly officers have enhanced or modified their roles. The President should preside at the meetings, should initiate the activities and see that they are carried out, should appoint committees to see that they function, should lend continuity to the chapter and see that the jobs are distributed among as many members as possible.
