Quorum Requirements Table

A quorum is achieved when a majority of the members are present. A majority is a count greater than than half the number of members. (Divide by two, round down, and add one.) See the following table for examples:

Members¹	Present²

5	3

7	4
8	5
9	5

²Minimum required number of members present to achieve quorum

Proxy Implications for Quorum

In the event a member cannot attend, that member may "grant a proxy" to another member by emailing the chair such intentions. If the person to whom the proxy was granted is present, then the member granting the proxy is also counted present for the purposes of determining quorum.

Quorum Implications for Membership Process

For quorum requirements to be determined, one must know the number of members in a group, which means that one must know the identity of each member, which means that there must be criteria/process for becoming a member and criteria/process for ceasing to be a member.
