Notes:

Note 1. Describing a term of membership as “ex officio” indicates that the member named serves in this role as long as she/he holds the UCA position indicated. It does not mean that the member is non-voting.

Note 2. V/NV: voting or non-voting.

Note 3. As is customary, the chair votes only in the event of a tie.

Note 4. The at-large faculty members, appointed by the Faculty Senate, serve staggered terms. The length of the initial terms was determined by drawing lots (1, 2, or 3 years).
