Item 14: Proposals to the Executive Board

Motion: McLeod, Adams

Motion: To add a line to the FBA Jazz Band MPA adjudication sheet that would indicate how often the ensemble meets each week.

Rational: An adjudicator could offer better feedback if he/she knew how often an ensemble rehearses. An ensemble that rehearses 7 ½ hours per week would need different comments than an ensemble that only rehearses 2 hours per week.

Proposal approved.
