The president votes only in the case of a tie. RSO Representatives All Registered Student Organizations are encouraged to send a representative to CAB meetings to serve as a liason between the groups. The rep receives voting rights after attending three consecutive meetings and submitting a letter from the RSO president assigning you as the new CAB rep to the CAB Office Coordinator. Independent Members Independent members are WMU students who are involved in no other RSO on campus. Therefore, you are a representative of yourself.
Independent members receive voting rights after attending three consecutive meetings.
There are 15 independent member positions. Associate Members Associate members can attend all meetings and events, but do not get to vote in any elections. If you are a member of an RSO that already has a Rep, or if all independent member positions are filled, you are welcome to become an associate member. Any RSO wishing to seek funding from CAB must have a voting representative in the general assembly. Voting members lose their voting privileges if any 3 meetings in a semester are missed.
