                     e.  Each state organization
                     hosting an international con-
                     vention shall receive funds
                     from International to offset
                     expenses accrued by the host
                     for state organization night.
                     Additional funds shall be
                     advanced to the convention
                     steering committee, main-
                     tained in a special convention
                     account, and disbursed only
                     for authorized expenses.
                     Any funds remaining in the
                     convention account shall be
                     returned to the international
                     Available Fund.
       Rationale: The Society has the responsibility of business and financial operations of international conventions and internation-
       al conferences. International will maintain the financial records of international events, which are audited annually with Society
       Available Funds. Fiscal Impact: This will save state organizations from having to raise funds for state night activities. Submitted
       by: Dr. Margie Nowak, chair, on behalf of the International Finance Committee, and Janis Barr and Candi Martin, on behalf of the
       Administrative Board. Administrative Board Recommendation: to adopt.
