We believe that, for the most part, the laws of this land were chosen with wisdom in mind. Therefore, we will not tolerate illegal activity at SOMA meetings or events. We choose to exert no control over the personal lives of our members and therefore cannot regulate their activities outside of SOMA-sponsored activites. I Membership is open to any EIU student or employee interested in any form of metaphysical, mystical, or occult tradition. Discrimination on any basis will not be tolerated.
All members have voting rights.
Section III Prospective members must attend at least one meeting and participate in one project. Also, prospective members must be nominated by a regular member and have the nomination approved by five other members. Honorary members have voting privileges. Non-EIU persons seeking honorary membership must be 18 years of age or have the consent of their legal guardian, since until the age of 18, religious instruction is the responsibility of the family. I Dues and collection dates for dues are decided as per the guidelines for establishing by-laws.
