This summary is not the rule. The rule text controls.
The Board of Governors picks someone to serve as the Executive Director and Treasurer of the Oklahoma Bar Association. This person handles the day-to-day operations and finances of the organization. Interestingly, this person does not have to be a lawyer, so the Board has flexibility in choosing someone with the right skills for the job.
The Board also picks a General Counsel for the Association. This person must be qualified and suitable for the role, acting as the organization's main legal advisor. Unlike the Executive Director position, the General Counsel role typically requires legal expertise since this person handles legal matters for the Association itself.
In short, this rule sets up two key staff positions. One person manages operations and money, while another handles legal matters for the bar association as a whole.
