To find out how well we’re doing in communicating about opportunities for faculty to participate at the state level;

To find out some of the deterrents or barriers (real or perceived) for faculty to serve at the state level; and

an Executive Committee position? What are some reasons why faculty do not

serve on a committee, task force, or advisory group?

Why don’t people run for the Executive Committee ?

Discussion about Bylaws ChangeResolved, That the Academic Senate for

California Community Colleges explore and, potentially propose a bylaws change that would expand the pool of faculty eligible to run for positions on the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges Executive Committee; and

Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges investigate new methods to increase the pools of faculty seeking membership on committees, identifying ways to recruit all faculty and to address misperceptions that discourage faculty from seeking to serve at both the local and state levels.
