There was a problem hiding this comment.
the phrasing of "...should also host..." seems bad. We should say that they are required to/expected to host a seminar

This adds a requirement to being an Active Member, which is that every Active Member must host at least one Technical Seminar during the academic year, and will be evaluated as part of a Membership Eval.
Common concerns and solutions:
C: "Some people are really averse to presenting."
S: Presentations are part of the curriculum for most if not all majors at RIT, as well as your professional career. This is GREAT practice for those times, since attendance will likely be 10-20 people, which is less than your average RIT class. It is also much less pressure than that of a job. It's not unfair to ask members of house to do this if they are expected to do it in class and/or in the field, and it's great practice for those who are averse to presenting.
(I'll add more as I see more concerns)
