How to use this site

This site is broken down into four basic topics:

• Our current governance structure.

• The legal compliance problems presented by our bylaws.

• Options for potential solutions we’re considering.

• The member referendum itself: what it is, how it’ll work, and why it’s both necessary and awesome.

Who’s this site for?

• If you’re currently a member of the Berkeley Student Cooperative this term, you’ll be given the opportunity to vote on this issue in the coming weeks.*

• If you’re brand new to the system, or you just simply haven’t yet been exposed to centralized governance or the role board of directors, consider taking a moment to look over our primer on the current governance page.

• For everyone else, feel free to jump in with the pages on the problem, solutions, or even just the referendum itself, depending on your own personal exposure to the aspects of this issue.

How can I learn more?

More will be coming down the pipeline as the referendum voting period draws nearer; in the meantime, feel free to click on the additional resources at the bottom of each page or email vpia@bsc.coop with any specific suggestions or questions you might have.

*provided the Board of Directors approves the initiation of this referendum at their February 26th meeting.
