WE NEED A NEW REGENT

OPA has resigned, as such please post here if you're interested and what your vision of the North Pacific University should be.
 
I would love to but I lost faith in the ability of the University to get off the ground months ago.
Well this expressly gives you rights to bash all those involved in not getting it off the ground. C'mon, we all love to complain about the University. One might even call it a proud part of our history, heritage, and TRADITION!
 
I'll stand for election as a Regent of The North Pacific Univeristy, Kicking pant-rumps is a specialty.:) I'm frustrated by the delay and I guess I need tob e in a better position to bring it about.

Anyhow, I need to start making plans for after I leave office in a few weeks.
 
TNP Law 17:
D - The Board shall be elected in the first week of March and September by an election in the Regional Assembly. Regents shall be members of the Regional Assembly in good standing during their term. The Board of Regents shall be elected by plurality vote of the Regional Assembly in the manner prescribed by law for Security Council elections. Vacancies on the board shall be filled in the same manner as vacancies on the Security Council.

The Scurity Council vacancy proceedure referred to in Law 17 is as follows:
Security Council Rule 1.

When a quorum of Council members appear with respect to a particular matter, and the Speaker, as the chair of the Council has not yet appeared, that member with the longest tenure of service on the Council who has appeared shall act as the chair pro tempore for that discussion until the Speaker is present.

Security Council Rule 2.

The following officials may have access to the closed deliberations of the Security Council when their participation is relevant to a matter under discussion, without further action by the Council:
The Prime Minister
The Minister of External Affairs
The Minister of Defense
The UN Delegate
The UN Vice Delegate
A designated representative of The North Pacific Army or the North Pacific Intelligence Agency.
Other persons may be authorized by the Council to participate in closed proceedings of the Security when their presence is relevant to a matter under discussion, as approved by the Council.

Security Council Rule 3.

In the event of a vacancy on the Council whether due to resignation, ineligibility, or other cause, the vacant seats shall be filled for the remainder of the term of office by means of a special election in the Regional Assembly. The election shall be organized by the Speaker as expeditiously as possible, but the period for nominations shall not exceed 48 hours, and the period for voting shall not exceed 72 hours, commencing within 24 hours after the vacancy occurs. A plurality of the votes cast shall be necessary for election
 
If I read this correctly...the Speaker is following the law to the letter except he didn't call this "nominations" and it will exceed 48 hours soon.
 
BW, all I did was post the relevant section of law, and the procedural rule it referred to. I did not suggest anything other than that.

Quit being so hyper-sensitive
; it give canines a bad name!
