SUMMARY AS PASSED:
Faculty representatives to boards of visitors, the State Board for Community Colleges, and local community college boards. Authorizes the boards of visitors of four-year public institutions of higher education, the State Board for Community Colleges, and local community college boards to appoint one or more nonvoting, advisory faculty representatives to their boards. In the case of the State Board for Community Colleges, any representatives must be appointed from persons elected by the Chancellor's Faculty Advisory Committee. Faculty representatives to boards of visitors and local community college boards must be appointed from individuals elected by the faculty, faculty senate, or other equivalent group of the institution. Any representatives will serve terms of not less than one 12-month period, which is coterminous with the institution's fiscal year, or for terms mutually agreed to by the State Board for Community Colleges and the Chancellor's Faculty Advisory Committee, or the local community college board or the board of visitors, as the case may be, and the institution's faculty senate or other equivalent group. The State Board for Community Colleges, local community college boards, and boards of visitors may exclude faculty representatives from discussions of faculty grievances, faculty or staff disciplinary matters, or salaries. This measure is nearly identical to HB 64.
