Sec. 3-7.24. Each community college board shall have one
non-voting member who is a student enrolled in the community
college under the jurisdiction of the board; however, in
multi-campus districts, one non-voting student member from
each campus shall be selected to represent the campus. One
non-voting student member shall also be selected in
multi-campus districts to represent all campuses in those
districts. In multi-campus districts, the campus from which the
member is selected shall be determined by lot each year
provided that no campus shall twice have selected a non-voting
student member until all campuses in the district have once
been represented on the district board. The same procedure
shall be followed until all campuses have been represented a
second time, a third time, and subsequent times. The method of
selecting these student members shall be determined by
campus-wide student referendum.
The student members shall serve a term of one year

member initially selected shall serve a term beginning on the
date of selection and expiring on the next succeeding June 30.
The nonvoting student members shall have all of the
privileges of membership, including the right to make and
second motions and to attend executive sessions, other than the
right to vote.
