“There was an edit to the mission statment during the fiscal year.”

“Per the raa bylaws, raa membership is defined as: recipients of baccalaureate, graduate, and honorary degrees from rensselaer; individuals who have completed courses given by rensselaer and have earned at least sixty (60) credits, and are no longer enrolled; individuals who have completed courses given by rensselaer or via an accredited rensselaer distance learning program, and have earned at least thirty (30) credits, are no longer enrolled, and submit a written request indicating a desire to be a member of the association.”

“Per the raa bylaws, all nominations from the general membership are submitted to the raa nominating committee (consisting of the president, past president or president-elect, executive director and up to three other current or former trustees appointed by the executive committee) who then prepare a slate of candidates to be approved by the executive committee before it is presented to the general membership at the raa annual meeting.”

“Per the raa bylaws, the executive committee is empowered between board meetings to administer the business of the association for the board, with the exception of amending the charter, bylaws, long range plan and annual budget approved by the board.”

“The 990 is reviewed by the executive director, president and treasurer. Additionally, all board members will have the opportunity to review the 990.”

“Board members are required to fill out a conflict of interest disclosure statement on a yearly basis.”

“The organization's governing documents and forms 1023 and 990 are available upon request.”
