Review the GRACS bylaws.

• GRACS Executive Committee is five people, three elected for Fall to Fall and two for Spring to Spring terms.

GRACS is an official UT registered student org. We need to keep this registration up-to-date. UT Student org. info: http://deanofstudents.utexas.edu/sald/studentorgs/

Some of these things are the duty of the GRACS Executive Committee, some are the duties of an officer, some are the duties of a standing committee, and some would necessitate a Project Committee.
