CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS
Chapters will have the opportunity to place their vote on the a proposed constitutional amendment from December 1, 2009 – February 1, 2010. Chapters should hold a meeting to determine the chapter’s position on the constitutional amendment and determine how the chapter will cast its vote. Chapters then need to log onto the Psi Chi website using the chapter administration login and password. Once logging onto the site as the chapter administrator, each chapter will have the opportunity to vote on the constitutional amendment. If a chapter is in need of the login or password information, the faculty advisor may contact the Psi Chi Central Office via email at psichi@psichi.org or by phone at (423) 756-2044. Each chapter's vote is important as it determines the Psi Chi Constitution and thus Psi Chi policy. The deadline to return the electronic ballot is February 1, 2010.
