Whereas currently the entire Executive Committee is elected on an at-large basis, and
Whereas electing regional representatives directly by members of that region would allow a greater responsiveness by those representatives to their local senates, and
Whereas regionally elected representatives would be carrying forward regional concerns to the Executive Committee better informing the Executive Committee on local matters,
Resolved that the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges direct the Executive Committee to amend the Election Rules and Procedures to allow direct election of the North and South Representative by their respective regions.
[NOTE: This resolution will begin the process for changing the By Laws and rules.]
