Adjustments to Publications Policy

Gathering several ASIEs together, adding a section about Handbooks, defining InterLink.
Dan questions InterLink process. His biggest concern is no named head editor. I explained that there is a staff who is production manager, a team of content providers and columnists, and the ComComm will develop guidelines and policies.
Vote: Passed, Becker opposed(she wants handbooks to stay with Leadership Development), Burg abstained.

Rescinding all the ASIEs which are subsumed by the more comprehensive Pubs policy.
Dan offered friendly amendment to keep the ASIE about bigotry and prejudice being antithetical.
Passed unaninmously.

Rescinding InterLoc guidelines.
Passed unanimously.
