Call for Student Nominations to the Athletic Board

The Athletic Board serves as an advisory committee to the Chancellor and the Director of Intercollegiate Athletics on the fiscal operational aspects of the varsity sports program. The Board is also responsible for that program as it relates to the academic and educational objectives defined by the Senate.

The Senate Committee on Committees is seeking nominations of student members to fill two annual vacancies on the Athletic Board.

A complete list of current Athletic Board members is available at: https://chancellor.illinois.edu/committees.html

The Senate Committee on Committees will present a slate of student nominees as stipulated in the Senate Bylaws. The Senate will vote on this slate at the February 10, 2020, Senate meeting, and the top four names will be forwarded to the Chancellor to fill the two vacancies.
