Who is eligible to vote in elections?

• A. All members
• B. Officers only
• C. Active members only
• D. Alumni and students

Answer: (C)

Voting rights are tied to current participation in the chapter, so only active members in good standing are eligible to vote. Active members are those who are currently participating in meetings, fulfilling dues and obligations, and abiding by the chapter’s rules. Alumni and students who aren’t active aren’t on the current decision-making roster, so they don’t vote in elections. Limiting voting to officers would exclude the broader engaged membership, while granting voting to all members or to alumni and students would include people not presently involved or responsible for governing the chapter. Therefore, voting is restricted to active members only.
