Robert B Fish Posted September 6, 2011 at 06:29 PM Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 at 06:29 PM IMO, just as you might use "Acting Secretary", I suggest using Secretary Pro Tem.-Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't find any info on "pro tem" capitalizations in the NAP Writing Style Guide.Thank you.The name of the secretary pro tem should be noted at the beginning of the minutes, RONR (10th ed.), p. 452, ll. 6-8; but, "pro tem" is not necessary with the signature at the end. Thus, the minutes should simply be signed, "Jane Doe, Secretary". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
