Faculty Senate Executive Committee

Faculty Senate Executive Committee

The Executive Committee is the liaison between the faculty, the administration, and the board, providing input on policy and procedure issues pertinent to instruction and faculty personnel matters. The general faculty elect seven representatives to serve as the Faculty Senate Executive Committee, and the Executive Committee then elects officers from the committee (three one year, four the next). Currently two members of the Executive Committee attend the monthly board meetings of the CSI Trustees. A term on the Executive Committee lasts two years; there are no term limits.
