In addition to the elected trustees, there is a Student Trustee, as required by a 1974 amendment to the Public Community College Act. Student Trustees are elected by campus referendum, for a single term from April 15 to April 14. Student Trustees have the right to make and second board motions, and to attend closed sessions to which the general public is not privy. A Student Trustee's vote is advisory and non-binding.

Famous quotes containing the words board of, board and/or trustees:
“During depression the world disappears. Language itself. One has nothing to say. Nothing. No small talk, no anecdotes. Nothing can be risked on the board of talk. Because the inner voice is so urgent in its own discourse: How shall I live? How shall I manage the future? Why should I go on?”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
“And they heaved a mighty breath, every soul on board but me,
As they saw her nose again pointing handsome out to sea;
But all that I could think of, in the darkness and the cold,
Was just that I was leaving home and my folks were growing old.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
“We live in an age when to be young and to be indifferent can be no longer synonymous. We must prepare for the coming hour. The claims of the Future are represented by suffering millions; and the Youth of a Nation are the trustees of Posterity.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
