Rule of Order 18: Motion to Recess

A member of the Undergraduate Senate may make a motion to recess while that member has the floor. The motion shall pass if another member of the Undergraduae Senate seconds the motion. The motion may not be reconsidered. The motion can be overturned with a two-thirds vote of the Undergraduate Senate. If the motion is not overturned, the Undergraduate Senate will immediately recess for five minutes.

The same member of the Undergraduate Senate may not raise the motion to recess more than once per meeting. The motion may only be amended insofar as to lengthen or shorten the recess time.
