That the CP and other Special Project elect their Board Rep there is no question. However as far as the Coordinator of the Special Projects is concerned the Bylaws state that they are appointed by the Advisory Board in Article 13 - Section 1. Section 6 - though does cause difficulty seemingly contradicting Section 1. It seems as if in the writing of the Sections regarding the Special Projects that two positions were being discussed without a clear division regarding which was being talked about where. >> If you read carefully, Article XIII Section 1 is describing the procedure to be used in the initial creation of a Special Project, while Section 6 describes the method of replacing a Project Coordinator in an existing Special Project, which is true in the instant case. Checking a bit further, the wording of Section 6 is almost identical to that in Article XII, Section 10 which details the methods of replacing a State Coordinator. This procedure has been used a number of times since the initiation of the Bylaws, so I fail to see a cause for confusion in this case.
