OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS 13 



Sec. 2. Before reporting favorably upon the name of a candidate for Fellowship, 

 the Examining Board shall secure explicit information in regard to works of landscape 

 architecture done by the candidate in the practice of the profession, sufficient in amount, 

 in kind and in quaUty to afford satisfactory evidence of professional competence. 



The term "shall have practised the profession," as used in Article 4 of the Consti- 

 tution, shall be interpreted to mean that the candidate's chief occupation shall have been 

 the practice of landscape architecture upon his or her independent professional respon- 

 sibility, and directly for his or her own clients or those of a firm in which the candidate 

 shall have been at the time a responsible member. A year during which a candidate shall 

 have thus practised landscape architecture occasionally or in part while mainly engaged 

 in other occupations or in the employ of another landscape architect shall not be reckoned 

 as a year of professional practice. 



In recommending a candidate for fellowship the Examining Board shall report in 

 writing the grounds upon which the recommendation is based. 



Sec. 3. Before reporting favorably upon the name of a candidate for Junior mem- 

 bership the Examining Board shall satisfy themselves that the candidate's professional 

 training, capacity and aims are such as may reasonably be expected after further expe- 

 rience to fit the candidate for successful practice as a landscape architect and for fellowship 

 in the Society. The Examining Board shall require the candidate for Junior membership 

 or his proposer to submit evidence of the extent of his professional training in artistic 

 design and of his technical attainment in respect to plants and the making and execution 

 of planting plans, in respect to grading and the designing and direction of minor engineer- 

 ing work, and in respect to the designing of such minor architectural structures as occur 

 in landscape architecture. 



In recommending a candidate for Junior membership the Examining Board shall 

 report in writing the grounds upon which the recommendation is based. 



Sec. 4. The names of candidates favorably reported by the Examining Board shall, 

 upon the vote of the Executive Committee, be mailed by the Secretary, with copies 

 of the reports of the Examining Board and with blank ballots, to all the Fellows of the 

 Society not less than one month before the regular meeting of the Society at which the 

 candidates will come up for election, together with a notice of the date of meeting. Ballots 

 for or against the election of a candidate shall be submitted to the Secretary by mail or 

 otherwise before the closing of the polls at the meeting specified in the notice. 



Sec. 5. A member may be expelled by a two-thirds vote of all the Fellows mailed 

 or handed to the Secretary at a regular meeting. (Printed, 1909.)
