Members
The members of Dicks and Janes are selected through a closed audition process. Once a member is selected by the group, the member may choose to accept or decline membership. The term of a member lasts as long as they are a student at the University, or until they leave the group voluntarily.
The group is governed by a constitution, which was drawn up by the founding members. The constitution clearly legislates the processes of leadership within the group, as well as all policies of the group. The constitution spells out the leadership as such:
- Music Director -Runs all rehearsals, makes any decisions regarding the music or repertoire of the group.
- President - Serves as the official representative of the group, resolves any internal disputes.
- Business Manager - manages all public functions of the group, including publicity, concert booking, and financial records.
- Secretary - Maintains attendance records, and sees to other organizational duties when necessary.
Leadership positions are elected by the group at the Annual meeting, at the end of each school year.

Famous quotes containing the word members:
“The English people believes itself to be free; it is gravely mistaken; it is free only during election of members of parliament; as soon as the members are elected, the people is enslaved; it is nothing. In the brief moment of its freedom, the English people makes such a use of that freedom that it deserves to lose it.”
—Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)
“Mr. Speaker, Mr. President, Members of the House, Members of the Senate, my fellow Americans, all I have I would have given gladly not to be standing here today.”
