In the rule entitled Pens, change “Black” to “Black or Purple” in the line which reads “If a Student’s COLOR roll results in Black, they may roll again.”

In the same rule, change the which reads “Any Student with a Magenta or Purple pen is known as a Prefect” to read as follows:

Any Student with a Magenta pen is known as a Hall Monitor.
Any Student with a Purple pen is known as a Prefect. At any time, no more than one Student may possess a Purple pen. The Professor has a special Pen which, while not Purple for the purposes of the ruleset, can write in Purple ink.

Add a new rule, entitled Prefectures, to the ruleset:

A Prefect may act as a proxy for the Professor in certain matters. A period in which there is an active Prefect is known as a Prefecture, and may be referred to as the “n’th Prefecture of x”, where x the the name of the Prefect and n is the number of Prefectures they have had.

If at any time there is no Prefect, the Professor may appoint a Student to be the Prefect by making a story post to that effect, provided that the appointment does not violate any other conditions detailed in this paragraph for Prefect eligibility. No Student may be Prefect twice in a row, and no Student may be appointed as Prefect if that would mean that they had been Prefect at least twice more than another Student. The nominated student should then, at their earliest opportunity, post a Prefecture Address specifying their plans and priorities for their Prefecture. Once this Prefecture Address has been posted, the Prefecture officially starts and the Student may change their Pen colour to Purple.

A Prefecture may last for no more than one week. At the end of that week, the Student who was the Prefect ceases to be the Prefect and may no longer undertake any Prefect-specific actions; any Student may then remove the Purple pen from their record in the GNDT. The Professor should then, at their first opportunity, make a story post giving the former Prefect a grade, expressed as a percentage score, for their Prefecture. If the score is higher than 75%, the Student scores.

If any Student has a purple pen when this proposal is enacted, change that Student’s pen to another colour as per the procedure set out in the rule entitled Pens.
