Proposal: Because One Pair of Eyes is Never Enough

Passes 12-0. —Brendan

Adminned at 11 Nov 2010 10:45:58 UTC

If rule 2.6 “Teachers” has a subrule 2.6.2 “Resident Scholar” replace it with the following:

2.6.2 Resident Scholar. Each dormitory is overseen by one of the full time faculty. If a dormitory currently has no Teacher assigned to it, then the Headmaster shall randomly assign a Teacher to that dormitory. If a Teacher is assigned to a dormitory, then that information will be noted in the Teacher’s profile on the wiki.

Students within a dormitory may attempt to request a change in the Teacher assigned to their dormitory. As a weekly action, a student may publish a post entitled “Request for Change of Faculty Supervisor” and within which they will nominate a new Teacher, designate a Dormitory (Which must be the Dormitory the posting student resides in) and offer a reason as to why they would like a change to occur.

Resolution of the Request for Change of Faculty Supervisor is handled in the following fashion:
• Students who reside within the Dormitory may vote ‘for’ or ‘against’ the change by commenting on the post.
• If the designated Faculty Member is currently overseeing another Dormitory, residents of that Dormitory may vote ‘for’ or ‘against’ the change by commenting on the post.
• The Headmaster may vote ‘for’ or ‘against’ the change by commenting on the post and his vote shall be counted twice.
• For each Grudge the Teacher holds against a Student in the requesting Student’s dormitory, add a vote of ‘against’ towards the Request for Change of Faculty Supervisor. These votes will be tallied by the posting Student and posted as a comment. Failure to do so within 48 hours of the original post will result in the Request failing.
• If the designated Teacher is currently overseeing another Dormitory, for each Grudge he or she holds against a student in the Dormitory he or she is currently overseeing, add a vote of “for” towards the Request for Change of Faculty Supervisor.These votes will be tallied by the posting Student and posted as a comment. Failure to do so within 48 hours of the original post will result in the Request failing.
•After a 48 hour period, if the number of “for” votes exceeds the number of “against” votes, then the designated Teacher will be assigned to the designated Dormitory. If the number of “against” votes exceeds or ties the number of “for” votes, then no change will occur.

Maybe second time is the charm.

for Cool! =)

The thing is, what happens if your first proposal fails? Subrule 2.6.2 won’t exist, and the way I interpret your proposal, nothing will happen. =P

I’ll go vote for the other one, then. (^_^)

for It feels weird that the same Teacher can oversee all dormitories, but the rule seems to handle it well. =)
