*CONSTITUTIONAL REFERENDUM*

This year, the MIT Graduate Student Council has voted to amend its
Constitution and Bylaws to resolve ambiguities in its legislative
processes and to formalize the voting rights of representatives from
Sidney-Pacific, the Warehouse, and future dormitories.  These amendments
have already been approved by 3/4 of the voting members of the Council.
In order for them to be ratified, they must now obtain a majority vote of
those wishing to participate in a referendum of the graduate student body.

We encourage you to participate in this referendum by visiting:

http://web.mit.edu/surveys/gsc/

Details regarding the amendments are specified on this site.  Please read
the voting instructions carefully, in order to ensure that your vote is
counted.  Voting will remain open until next Wednesday, April 27 at
midnight.
