You are well advised to seek the answer from your attorney, as to its legality under your governing documents or under your state's condominium law.
The real issue arises when voting, since only one vote per 'door' is usually counted.
Read your governing documents to determine the residency requirements for board service eligibility. It is possible that the majority of the board must be resident owners, all members must be resident owners or there may be no residency requirement. There is no standard.
Yes. Though its completely independent from MIT. They just share the same board members.
Board directors and board members may sit on the same board. However, members do not have a power of veto, and the board of directors does.

Read your governing documents to determine the qualifications for sitting on the board. Usually, election to the board is reserved for unit owners, and each board member must own at least one unit. Ownership is represented by a 'name on the title or deed to the real property'. If each family member owns a unit, there may be no issue. If, however, the family members share the same unit, then the issue arises that each unit only has one vote, and this is true, too, of board members. Finally, it's a good idea for family members who qualify to vote individually to be able to demonstrate impartiality when voting in an association when/if multiple members occupy board seats.

It depends on the type of board meeting and its guidelines, as defined in your governing documents. For example, if it is a special meeting called by board members and not by the president, only the items listed on the agenda can be voted on. If it is an open board meeting, then a majority of board members present may vote on an item. Perhaps board members vote and the president only votes when there is a tie, and so forth. Not all governing documents are the same, so review yours to determine how to proceed with a vote when fewer than all board members are present.
