Article Excerpt:
”UVM’s faculty union, United Academics, aims to get faculty and staff representation on the board of trustees, according to a Feb. 14 email from UA communications.
UA introduced a revised version of a bill known as Senate Bill 248. If passed, nine new representatives would be added to the board of trustees, according to the revised bill.
The new seats would be reserved for four faculty members, four staff and one student, according to the bill.
“The current structure of UVM leadership, we feel, is failing us all,” UA President Eleanor Miller said. “The board of trustees has shut out the voices of faculty, staff and many students, and there is no opportunity for meaningful participation."“
