There are 3 categories of points: committee points, engagement points, and bonus points.
Points will be considered in the returning member application process
Essentially, the whole semester is your returning member interview.
There will be monthly thresholds that members must reach in order to remain in the club. If members do not meet a threshold, they will be dropped from the club. Exceptions will be given for extenuating circumstances.

November 5: 46
Final (December 3): 70

The people who won in Spring 2021 are not eligible to win in Fall 2021.
Directors and advisors are eligible to win, but execs are not.
House (cup)
People earn points individually, but we will also calculate the average number of points per person per house and give out the house cup based on that. When you earn points, you are helping out yourself as well as your house!
