- Informing members of the activities of the SDC;
- Maintaining the web page on the SDC, which may be expanded in cooperation with the Webmaster;
- Soliciting articles on the subjects of William the Conqueror, his Companions, the Conquest generally, and descents from William and his Companions for The Augustan Omnibus;
- Advising the Librarian on the selection of books and other materials on these subjects;
- Serving on the Finance Committee;
- Developing the annual budget for the SDC, in consultation with the Finance Committee; and
- Submitting a report to the Board on the activities of the society annually in July, and at other times when requested.
General responsibilities for Deans are described on the page on Committee Chairmen.
While there is not presently a publication by and for this group and topic, there could be. If done, this should include material that is for some reason not appropriate for either The Augustan Omnibus or Augustæum.
When there are at least five Augustans in Good Standing among the members, the Dean may call for elections to his office; when there are ten, he must. When there are 25, he may propose to the Board a Council to govern the SDC; when there are 50, he must.
