A 466 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires membership of boards of trustees of State colleges and universities and county colleges to include two college employees.

This bill requires governing boards of New Jersey's state colleges, universities, and county colleges to include two employee members who are selected from labor union recommendations. These employee members, appointed by the Governor for two-year terms (with initial terms staggered), have full voting rights but cannot participate in decisions about staff employment or working conditions. The bill amends current law to remove a prohibition preventing college employees from serving on these boards. It directly affects all public college and university employees represented by labor organizations in New Jersey.
