Lisa Skovalia was appointed Vice-Dean of the Provisional Governing Council by then-Dean Michael Pope.
Chris Gruber is now the Dean of the Provisional Governing Council.

The Provisional Constitution has this to say:

Art. III, Sec. 2: If it has not already done so, the Council shall immediately elect a Dean of the Council of Metáiriâ Island who shall preside over all Council business and who, immediately upon taking office, shall appoint a Vice-Dean of the Council of Metáiriâ Island who shall serve at the pleasure of the Dean and whose specific duties shall be determined solely by the Dean, and who may be dismissed by the Dean on whim. The Dean and/or Vice-Dean may be dismissed by a simple majority vote of the Council at any time.

It was my intent when writing this clause that the incoming Dean would appoint a new Vice-Dean or keep the incumbent in office, implying a renewal of Vice-Deanship at the start of each term.

However, the letter of the law says something somewhat different: that no reappointment is necessary for the sitting Vice-Dean if the new Dean so chooses. The new Dean can keep the sitting Vice-Dean as long as he likes.

It is my opinion, as compiler of the Provisional Constitution that Lisa Skovalia's Vice-Deanship has never been broken even though a new Dean is in office.

High Cort, what are your thoughts?
