规章制度的更新

The Board of Trustees of God’s Bible School and 大学 has been hard at work over the past year to review and update our Ministry Bylaws, a process that is critical to the ongoing vitality of our institution.

We have spent many 小时 endeavoring to make this a helpful and accurate update and would now like to request your involvement regarding the proposed document.

The Board has given preliminary approval, but the Bylaws stipulate that time must be allotted for public input prior to the Board’s final vote, which will be held at its 春天 meeting on May 18, 2020.

You are invited to access the tentatively-approved Bylaws.

A public-comment space will be provided for you to share your questions and/or support of the 2020 Bylaws update.

The vast majority of the changes in the Bylaws are simply clerical in nature, but there are a few key changes:

1. The 校友 Council will be replaced with an 校友 Relations Committee on the Board that will include several 校友 representatives.  This move is intended to strengthen the connection of the school with its most valuable asset – the 校友 – and create new ways to encourage 校友 involvement with their alma mater.  (The current 校友 Council has voiced their support of this option and has voted unanimously to approve it!)
2. While the 校友 restructuring will remove the position of 校友 总统 and subsequently that seat on the Board of Trustees, the updated version of the Bylaws stipulates that a minimum of seven Trustees must be 校友 of bte365官网地址, therefore maintaining a strong bte365官网地址 校友 perspective in the Board room.
3. The denominational requirement remains in place, which prevents having a majority of any single denomination of Board members.  bte365官网地址 has always been, and should remain, interdenominational.  A provision has been added to permit adequate time to replace a Board member who may resign or change their church membership that would cause the Board to be out of compliance with this stipulation.

Please read through the Bylaws and let us know what you think!  Your perspective is important to us and we look forward to hearing from you.
