Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, represented in the General Assembly:

Section 5. The Public Community College Act is amended by changing Section 3-7.24 as follows:

(110 ILCS 805/3-7.24) (from Ch. 122, par. 103-7.24)

Sec. 3-7.24. Each community college board shall have one non-voting member who is a student enrolled in the community college under the jurisdiction of the board; however, in multi-campus districts, one non-voting student member from each campus shall be selected to represent the campus. One non-voting student member shall also be selected in multi-campus districts to represent all campuses in those districts. In multi-campus districts, the campus from which the member is selected shall be determined by lot each year provided that no campus shall twice have selected a non-voting student member until all campuses in the district have once been represented on the district board. The same procedure shall be followed until all campuses have been represented a second time, a third time, and subsequent times. The method of selecting these student members shall be determined by campus-wide student referendum.

The student members shall serve a term of one year beginning on April 15 of each year, except that the student member initially selected shall serve a term beginning on the date of selection and expiring on the next succeeding June 30.

The nonvoting student members shall have all of the privileges of membership, including the right to make and second motions and to attend executive sessions, other than the right to vote.
