Article XXXI: Removal of an Appointed Earlham Student Government Officer

Grounds for removal from office of any appointed Earlham Student Government officer are identical to the grounds for the removal of elected ESG officers as described in Article XXX. Any ESG member may initiate dismissal procedures by filing a formal complaint to the Co-Presidents of the ESG.

After a formal complaint has been filed, the appointed officer subject to removal must participate in a mediation session composed of the party who filed the formal complaint and a third-party mediator. The mediator should be a person mutually acceptable to all parties. If any party is dissatisfied with the outcome of the mediation session, the matter is brought to the subsequent Cabinet meeting, where all elected members must reach consensus on whether the officer should be removed from their position. Neither the officer subject to removal, nor the party that filed the complaint against them, may participate in the final consensus decision. If the officer subject to removal is a Student Representative to a College Committee, the faculty convenor of that committee may be present at the Cabinet meeting to participate in this consensus decision.
