    ICC policy changes

    There will be a stricter policy regarding officers’ absences at De Anza College Inter Club Council meetings and events under an amendment to ICC code passed on Nov. 14. It will require officers to be present at meetings and will tabulate absences with a point system. Upon reaching a certain number of points, the officer must resign the position. It is unclear whether the amendment was related to an expected impeachment proceeding that didn’t happen that day.Elaine Smith, ICC Chair, and Jonathan Yeung, ICC Chair of Finance, expected representatives from at least five clubs to bring up a Bill of Particulars at the Monday Agenda meeting on Nov. 12. The bill would have called for a vote on Wednesday to impeach Levi Rosenthal, ICC Chair of Programs. At least two-thirds, or 41 of the 61 club representatives would have had to vote for impeachment for the motion to pass. However, no club representative presented a bill calling for his impeachment.Rosenthal “willfully disregarded his responsibilities” and “has consistently missed ICC officer meetings, ICC agenda meetings and has not fulfilled his required office hours,” said Yeung.Rosenthal did not give an excuse for missing ICC officer meetings or his office hours. “Elaine has missed meetings just like I have, but in her case, she has the power to cancel those meetings, which at least twice she has done 10 minutes before they were to be in session,” Rosenthal said. “As for Jonathan, it’s easy for him to attack me when he does not have as many responsibilities. He will tell you that I have been present at more club events and programs than he has.”Smith said the alteration to the code was not geared toward nor aimed at Rosenthal.
