Representative Council

Representative Council meets every three weeks during CCP’s academic year. As the Federation's governing body, Rep Council sets  policies and responds to issues affecting the Faculty and Staff Federation.  Representatives are elected through our annual election each Fall. 

The three bargaining units (Classified Employees; Part-Time and Visiting Lecturer Faculty; and Full-Time Faculty) elect Representatives from each department.  All members are welcome at Rep Council meetings, although only Department Reps or their alternates can vote.  Any member can request that an item be added to the agenda by contacting a member of the Federation’s Executive Committee (aft2026@gmail.com).
