(B)  Student representatives are nominated for one-year terms by their undergraduate and graduate student associations to sit with Academic Senate committees.  Their seating is subject to ratification by the Committee on Committees, which, by right, may also withdraw the privilege of participation from individual student representatives who violate the rules of conduct, or, in flagrant instances, debar any student representatives from the committee in question for a specific period of time.

 

(C)  Student representatives have the privilege of the floor at committee meetings.  They may ask for their positions to be recorded in the minutes (if any), but shall not vote or enjoy the other rights reserved for voting members.

 

(D)  Student representatives shall not be present during discussions of confidential matters, nor have access to documents pertinent to such discussions. Normally, confidential matters are defined as those pertaining to any individual members of the academic community, but when warranted, a committee Chair may declare any other matter confidential.

 

(E)  Student representatives may report to their constituencies on committee transactions, but, both as a courtesy and to confirm the accuracy in reporting, are requested to show a copy of any report to the Chair of the committee in question prior to its dissemination.
