“At this moment, I don’t think our conversations are focused on me being in a final club or not in a final club,” Nasrollahzadeh said. “I don’t think that question is relevant to this meeting.”

Nasrollahzadeh later confirmed that she is a member of the Bee Club.

The meeting's proceedings were at times dominated by members' discussion of parliamentary procedure, the set of rules that govern how the Council debates and votes on legislation. Throughout the meeting, UC Vice President Dhruv P. Goyal ’16 deferred frequently to Steinberg-Otter, the parliamentarian, even as multiple members expressed their frustration with the rules.

The meeting ended with members creating a list of “action items” to deliver to final clubs, including asking for pledges for the UC’s "Side By Side" gender equity campaign, hosting a town hall forum with final club leadership, and contacting alumni boards responsible for funding the clubs.

Earlier in the meeting, the Council unanimously approved $51,000 in funding for club sports teams. The meeting was held in Harvard Hall instead of in Ticknor Lounge, where the Council usually convenes.
