------------------------------
So it would probably be rude for the AMS to not ratify the selections made
by the Alumni association, but what hat does the Alumni Association wear? 
How will the two Students at large be selected?  How will "up to two
representitives from each publication" be selected before publications
themselves are approved?  Is this not a direct conflict of interest?  Will
representatives from publications automatically abstain from votes
directly relating to their respective publications?  How is this whole
damn entity responsible to students, who will be paying the bills?  What
benefit is obtained by diluting AMS control over AMS money?
