How are delegates selected?<\/h2>\n

Delegates must be full-time members of the voting faculty of their home institution. Each constituent institution chooses its Faculty Assembly delegation according to procedures established by campus governance bodies.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The size of delegations is proportionate to the number of budgeted full-time faculty positions on a campus; the representation system allows for two, three, four, or five-member delegations. Assembly bylaws specify that delegates serve two- or three-year terms, at the institution\u2019s discretion. Bylaws also require the selection of alternate delegates.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The Faculty Assembly Executive Committee provides representation for each delegation-size grouping and for the HMSI institutions. Members are elected to one-year terms. One delegate is elected by each campus caucus by delegation size.<\/p>\n
