2008 Election Information
4CS Board of Directors (Executive Board)
Dec. 6, 2007
Dear Classified Staff Members, Classified Senate Presidents / Classified Community College Leaders,
Please note that at the upcoming 4CS Business Meeting in June, we anticipate conducting elections for open 4CS Officer positions. Between now and then, elections for open 4CS Area Representative positions will be held, as needed. With this letter, the 4CS Nominations and Elections Committee is recruiting new Executive Board members for the next term. Candidate qualifications, positions open and election procedures are available on the 4CS Website (http://www.ccccs.org) and by email notice to our General Members (Classified Senates). The election process will reach completion at the 4CS General Business Meeting, held during the Annual Classified Leadership Institute.
If you or someone you know are interested in running for open 4CS Executive Board positions, please fill out the Letter of Intent and required materials, submitting them by the published deadlines. Only currently employed classified staff from 4CS General Member colleges or districts will qualify. The appropriate forms and information concerning the upcoming elections can be obtained via the 4CS Website or any 4CS Area Representative or our General Members. The recommended election documents include (1) a copy of this letter, (2) the current 4CS Regions and Areas list, (3) the Senate Delegate form, (4) the Open Positions, Election Deadlines & Procedures notice, and (5) the Letter of Intent form. Additional information about 4CS and serving on the Board is available via the Website and though its members.
If you are considering running for a board position, it is a position that requires commitment and dedication. The 4CS Executive Board has at least four regularly scheduled meetings a year though out the state. In addition, there is one General Business Meeting each year, held during Classified Leadership Institute. All meetings are important and do require the board member's participation. Due to budget restrictions on travel funding, 4CS cannot fund all of your participation by itself, although limited assistance is now available. Information on the other duties is available on the Website.
The position itself is a most rewarding one. You meet, network and work with talented classified, faculty, administrative and legislative individuals throughout the State of California to improve the California Community Colleges System for its students and communities. You will have the opportunity to promote excellence and communications among the classified staff of all of the California Community Colleges and to help others with similar interests in building a healthy and responsive higher educational system. The position is exciting, challenging, fun and as diverse as you make it, as well as a lot of work.
If you are interested in serving and meet the minimum qualifications to hold a 4CS Board of Directors (also known as the 4CS Executive Board), please consider this an invitation. The previous members of the Board have enjoyed their tenure on the board and look forward to the positive future of 4CS. If you need more information regarding this commitment letter, to confirm or discuss your involvement with 4CS, or to discuss any other related 4CS questions, please do not hesitate to contact any current member of the 4CS Executive Board. These materials apply only to members of 4CS. Thank you for your interest.
Sincerely,
The Current Members of the 4CS Executive Board
