Proposed Changes to the International Branch Bylaws

Dear International Branch members, 

The Bylaws of the International Branch of the Entomological Society of America is an important foundational document for the Branch. It guides our operations, meetings, and defines our relevance to the Society. It should be a document that changes as the needs of our Branch change.

The Executive Committee has proposed additional changes to better reflect the governance of the Society and our operations.
