Comment thread constitution.tex Outdated
Any Alumni Member in bad standing, as described in \ref{Alumni Membership Selection}, may become an Active Member by notifying the Evals Director of their intent to participate.
The Evals Director will then bring them up for an Immediate Relative Majority vote with fifty percent quorum at the next House Meeting.
If the vote passes, the Alumni is reinstated as an Active Member with Off-Floor Status effective immediately.
If the vote passes, the Alumni is reinstated as an Active Member with zero Housing Priority Points effective immediately.

I dont think we should reset housing points when coming back from bad standing. I only see potential downsides of this

\item During spring semester, the Evals Director selects a group of Active Members to form a Selections Committee.
The Selections Committee reviews applications in accordance with the process prescribed by ResLife.
\item A subset of applicants will be offered Intro Membership and have the opportunity to participate in the Intro Process defined in \ref{The Evaluation Period}.
A subset of Intro Members will be offered On-Floor status and will be able to select a room on floor.

Are this and the line below not outlining part the Spring ResLife application process? I think this part would still exist, just be on-floor or off-floor member instead of the status. Unless that's not necessary, but I'm not sure

Small nitpick, should probably put "do" or "will" before the "not" in the second sentence
