Ratification of Expense Reimbursement and Discount Policy

[emayer]

Bob,

I share your thoughts about the exec board discounts, they are also well deserved as I've stated earlier.  Publishing the policy was a nice idea also because it made clear what DE instructors are granted from the club.

As a student, I've seen firsthand some of the frustration expressed by several RTR instructors regarding workload and treatment which I didn't encounter elsewhere.  Others have shared their opinions on the forum.  We are fortunate that many are like you, who are willing to help regardless of the situation, but we cannot assume this will always be the case.  In my view, this topic is far more important to the well-being of RTR than all the political theatrics of late.

There were excellent proposals made to assist in rectifying this problem on other threads and I'm trying to help by keeping this discussion active and constructive with the hope of garnering some meaningful changes (I'll be quiet after that I promise! ).   I trust the matter will be taken up by the powers-that-be after the election.  If you haven't shared them already, it would be great to hear your thoughts and ideas on the subject.  What are your feelings regarding the autonomy of the speed council as pointed out by Chris?  Should these be elected positions also, or is there a role for direct oversight by the exec?  Would that actually help the program or is it unimportant?  Based on your experience, how can the DE program be improved for instructors?


Candidates:  What are your ideas?
