Reviewer: Elections, Representation, & Governance (ERG) Committee
Received: 2020-01-30
Decision Date: 2020-02-28
Decision Due By: 2020-03-30
Decision: The ERG Committee voted to forward its recommendations to the SEC for consideration.
Actions: The ERG Committee consulted with the chair of SCUF, and reviewed past work that led to the special committee's creation. ERG did not identify any concerns that necessitated changes to SCUF's provisions in the Senate's Bylaws.

The committee considered language establishing term lengths for student members of the committee. In its report, the ERG Committee affirmed that student members should be permitted, at their discretion, to continue their terms up to two times, for a total term length of three years (the same length as applies to faculty and staff members).
