Elected vs. Operational
Our framework maintains a firm distinction between mandated constitutional offices and our slate’s internal working portfolios. While the Local’s constitution establishes the formal authority and legal duties of the Executive Board, these portfolios reflect our tactical plan for operational coordination. To be clear: these labels are administrative designations, not new elected offices. They do not amend the constitution or transfer legal power, ensuring each officer strictly follows their official role.
