VI. Membership and Organization
The Media Board shall be composed of seven students appointed by
the presidents of the several Schools of the University. Present
media staff are to be excluded from appointment. The term of appointment
will be for two years, with terms being staggered so that three
members end their term one year and four the next, and with the largest
School, the College of Arts and Sciences, always represented. A
chairman shall be chosen by the Media Board from among the members
who have served one year.
- Each of the members shall be appointed no later than the fall
of their next to last school year before graduation. Vacancies
shall be filled by the presidents of the various Schools on a rotating
basis, the rotation being based upon an alphabetical listing
of the Schools. Vacancies in the unexpired term of any School
shall be filled within thirty days through appointment by the
president representing that School. The appointment schedule beginning
the fall of 1976 shall be as follows:
- Architecture - initial one year term, 1976-77

If, prior to the consideration of any adjudicative matter, a
challenge is made that one or more members of the Media Board should
be excused because of conflicts in interest, the challenge shall be
decided upon by a majority vote of the unchallenged members of the
Media Board, and, when required, substitute members shall be selected
by a majority vote; provided that if a majority of the members are
challenged, the Student Activities Committee shall act upon the
challenge and, if upheld, it shall select substitute members.
The Media Board of Directors may at its discretion elect to have
a consultant or advisor from the faculty or staff of the University
who should be selected in consultation with the Vice President for
Student Affairs, and who would serve ex officio and with no vote.
