Which role must attend all E board meetings?

• A. Treasurer
• B. Secretary
• C. Pledgemaster
• D. Historian

Answer: (C)

The key idea here is that attendance rules for the executive board are tied to the duties that must stay connected to ongoing decisions. The pledge master oversees the entire pledge process—education, progress tracking, and coordination of pledge-related activities. Because decisions about pledges, initiation timelines, and how pledge programs align with the chapter’s plans come up at every E-board meeting, the pledge master must be present to report on pledge status, provide needed guidance, and approve or adjust plans in real time. This ensures the pledge program stays integrated with the organization’s operations and avoids delays or miscommunication.

While other roles like treasurer, secretary, or historian have crucial responsibilities and typically participate, the requirement to attend every E-board meeting specifically rests on the pledge master due to the direct and ongoing impact of pledge-related decisions on the board’s agenda.
