David A Foulkes Posted March 13, 2010 at 05:15 PM Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 at 05:15 PM I might also suggest a review of RONR (10 ed.) pages 442-444 for what Roberts has to say on the "duties of the secretary."

Guest dan Posted March 14, 2010 at 01:44 AM Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 at 01:44 AM What does "hand them off to the president" mean? Doe it mean she takes the rough notes at the meeting -- then hands off those rough notes to the President to get typed, etc.? If so, then I'd say she wasn't doing the job os Secretary.
