For a project of this magnitude, a careful amount of planning is required; the council exists to serve this requirement. Usually, the more senior members are elected (or given power by graduating members) each spring for the next year’s team.

The current council consists of seven individuals who have shown great dedication to this team in the past years.

A great deal of respect should be given to this brave individual.
