CHAPTER 710 An Act to amend the Code of Virginia by adding a section numbered 23-9.3:1, relating to a student advisory committee to the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia. [H 2364] Approved March 19, 2003

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That the Code of Virginia is amended by adding a section numbered 23-9.3:1 as follows:

§ 23-9.3:1. Student advisory committee.

The State Council of Higher Education shall appoint a student advisory committee comprised of students enrolled in public institutions of higher education in the Commonwealth. Appointments shall be made in a manner to ensure broad student representation from among such public institutions.

All appointments shall be made for a term of one year each, except that appointments to fill vacancies shall be for the unexpired term. Members of the student advisory committee may be reappointed to serve subsequent or consecutive terms.

The State Council shall ensure that at least one member of the student advisory committee is reappointed each year. The student advisory committee initially appointed in 2003 shall elect a chairman from among its members. However, in subsequent years, the advisory committee shall elect a chairman from among those members who have served on the advisory committee at least one year.

The advisory committee shall meet at least twice annually and shall advise the State Council of Higher Education regarding such matters as may come before the advisory committee.
