Although the writing of the consti- tution was not undertaken, it was agrezd that a president, vice president and secretary shall comprise the offi- cers’ staff. ‘It was agreed also that while all of each university's respective pubiications shall be members of the conference, the votes in the conference shall be cast only in the neme of th institutions themselves.
