· Addition of a Parliamentarian
· Removal of the Organizing Director Office
· Addition of a Student Life Office
· 5 more representative spots for student organizations
· Clearer procedures for vacancies of officer positions
· A finance board
· Allows for typographical errors to be corrected without going through
