How are Members Selected?

Advisory committee members are appointed and approved for three-year terms by Lane Community College's Board of Education. Committee members serve in a voluntary, consultative capacity to the College.

Members are recommended by the College Board, staff, advisory committee members, professional groups and business representatives. Recommendations are based on the potential members' expertise and experience, their enthusiasm toward the career area and their willingness to serve.

Members are also selected with an attempt to balance representation with respect to racial, cultural, ethnic and gender diversity and with consideration of the spectrum of occupations within a particular program.
