Running for President and Studying Abroad.

[DubaiSis]

You would hold office starting exactly when and ending when? And your study abroad program would be exactly when to when? Would you be missing any school in the US while on your study abroad program? Is there ANYTHING you would miss as far as chapter activity by being away? If the answer to this one is yes, you shouldn't do it.

If you're only going to be gone during the summer and not miss any school, you can probably work it out. Yes, the president has planning and stuff that she undoubtedly does during the summer but you could be doing some of that from Paris or wherever. But if you're going to miss rush, work week or more than a single chapter meeting, I would say you should pass on the presidency.

If by school, you mean fall or spring semesters, no, I would not.

As far as I am aware, no. I would obviously need to make sure there are no conventions where the President's attendance is mandatory. I would be back in time for before our recruitment work week starts.
