Roll call position in Minutes

[Andy Travis]

When writing-up Minutes I know it is not necessary to write who was present at a meeting or their position on the Board but if that is customarily how it is done by an organization, I was wondering what people's thoughts were on what a person's position should be written as if during the meeting a person's position changed due to an election.

For example, when the meeting was called to order the vice-president was in the chair but during the meeting she was elected president. Following the example in RONR on how to write Minutes, they would begin "...the vice-president being in the chair..." But in the roll call when writing people's names and positions, what position would be written. Vice-president or president.

Since we're going by how it is customarily done in the organization, I'd say do it the way it is customarily done.  

 

I don't see the need to list more than the name, presuming you need to record anything.
