2026 Proposed Constitutional Amendments

The Executive Board of the Modern Greek Studies Association is proposing four sets of changes to the MGSA Constitution (https://www.mgsa.org/About/constitution.html). These changes would align the constitutional wording with current needs of the Association. To enact these changes, the MGSA Constitution must be amended—which requires the approval of two-thirds of the MGSA membership. We therefore seek your approval of the following constitutional amendments by June 1, 2026.

Please read the proposed amendments and then submit your vote on each
