A nominations committee of three will be formed from the graduating seniors before the election process begins. All Members can vote for President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary. Only Team Members of a certain squad can vote for their Team Captain. Balloting is secret. Probation and Discharge Team Members of Lafayette Crew may be placed on probation or discharged from the team should it be determined that the rower endangered the safety of others, violated the College's Code of Behavior, or acted in an unsportsmanlike manner at competition.
Probation is a warning to the team member.
A discharge from the team is a loss of all rights to compete for Lafayette College Crew for the current academic year. Two probations will result in discharge from the team for the year. Discharge from the team will result in an automatic probation at the beginning of the next year. Date, time, place, and reason of probation and discharges will be filed with the Secretary and the Director of Recreation Sports. The Team Member may appeal a probation or discharge to a panel comprising the Coaches, Executive Board, and Director of Recreation Sports.
