Civil Service Council - Election to Ratify Constitution - April 17

The EIU Civil Service Council will hold an election on April 17, 2024, to ratify proposed revisions to its Constitution.  Under Article XI, all amendments must “be ratified by the membership of the Organization by a two-thirds majority of those voting.“  Therefore, we ask for all non-negotiated civil service employees to participate in the election.

The election will take place completely online. On April 17th at 12:01 a.m., each non-negotiated civil service employee will receive an email containing a link to the ballot. It will be available until 11:59 p.m. on the same day. If you would like to review the proposed amendments, a link to the current and proposed draft can be found at https://www.eiu.edu/council/constitution_bylaws_2024.php. 

If you have any questions or concerns, contact your council representative or Michelle Morgan, Council President, at mlmorgan@eiu.edu.
