Membership Terms
Updated by PBC on November 7, 2018
Appointed members (who are not members by virtue of their position) will serve for a maximum of two years. These members, faculty, classified staff, and student representatives, are appointed in alternating years, staggering the rotation of members on and off the Council. Staggering appointments will assure continuity of knowledge on the Council. Members will be asked to serve on work groups or ad hoc committees as needed (based on availability of time) for the balance of service. Work groups (when needed) consist of four, and a minimum of two, PBC members.
All appointments will be made by June preceding the terms of appointment.
Student terms will be for one year (August 15 – June 30) with appointments made in August.
Note: Members who serve by virtue of their position do vote, with the exception of the college president who is non-voting; all other members are elected/selected by their constituencies and do vote.
