Student, UNC - Wilmington Conference Charges With Over 179 Members: "The additional lay members needed will be selected by local charges on the basis of membership as determined by the latest statistics, i.e., from immediate year previous to conference year. All charges with a membership above a determined number will have one additional lay member. The number of members required for a charge to have an additional lay member will be determined by the number of lay members needed to fulfill the quota for the Conference. For example, if 50 lay members are needed to fill the formula, the 50 charges with the largest membership having only one lay member from the charge lay membership would each be eligible to elect a second member."
