President Ron Winslow convened the NASW membership meeting at 8:14 a.m., on Oct. 27, 2012, in Raleigh, N.C., even as Hurricane Sandy churned off the Atlantic coast a bit to our south and meteorologists warned that a “Frankenstorm” could envelop a third of the eastern U.S. before Halloween. Hardy science writers dug into breakfast, fortifying themselves for the business and weather ahead.

President Mariette DiChristina called the meeting to order at 4:10 and established that a quorum existed. She explained that the purpose of the meeting was to vote on the proposed amendments to the Constitution and reviewed the resolution and three voting options. She said that documents from the NASW archives reflected the growth and evolution of the organization and that the update of the Constitution was part of moving toward a larger and more professional organization.
