What does the Statutory Code outline?

• A. The ritual procedures
• B. Specific chapter structures, discipline and financial policies
• C. Membership eligibility criteria
• D. Board responsibilities

Answer: (B)

The Statutory Code sets the rules for how a chapter is organized and run. It specifies chapter structure, the processes for discipline, and the financial policies chapters must follow. This creates consistency across all chapters, ensures fair due process in disciplinary actions, and provides clear guidelines for dues, financial reporting, and auditing. Ritual procedures are handled in the Ritual, membership eligibility criteria are outlined in other governing documents, and board responsibilities are described elsewhere, so they aren’t the focus of the Statutory Code.
