2. That an additional student alternate be provided, and that either of
the alternates be able to substitute for either of the prime student
members.
RATIONALE
The aim of the recommended changes is to increase the flexibility of the
alternate system of the Board, and to give the student members the same
number of alternates as the faculty members.
It has been found that the Board operates better with a full complement of
four voting members, and the changes will help achieve a full complement
more frequently.
