CSI 2013 CHAPTER ELECTIONS Votes in the election for PSC chapter positions at the College of Staten Island (CSI) were counted by the American Arbitration Association on November 1. The results were certified by the PSC Elections Committee on November 12. No challenges were filed. The Elections Committee submitted its report on the vote to the PSC Delegate Assembly, which approved them on November 14. Click here to see the results. 2013 CHAPTER ELECTIONS: Thirteen PSC chapters held votes in April to elect chapter officers, delegates and alternates to the union’s Delegate Assembly. Seven campuses also voted to elect representatives to the PSC-CUNY Welfare Fund Advisory Council. The Elections Committee certified all the elections except for the vote at the College of Staten Island. A new election for PSC chapter positions at the College of Staten Island (CSI) will be held this fall, on or about October 1. When the American Arbitration Association counted the votes in the Spring 2013 CSI faculty chapter election, it reported that some candidates from each of two competing slates had won. Representatives of the Brand New Day slate accepted the results; representatives of the CSI-New Caucus slate challenged the election and alleged four violations. The Elections Committee dismissed all these allegations, but found another issue that it concluded could have had an impact on the outcome, and was thus reason enough to order a new election. The PSC Elections Committee June 2013 report summarizes the Committee’s findings. The PSC Constitution has a three-year limit for terms of office. Therefore, the previous chapter officers’ terms have expired. They no longer represent the PSC on campus.The CSI faculty chapter election re-run will take place on or about October 1st 2013. PSC members at CSI will receive more details by mail in advance of the vote.

A full listing of all chapter officers elected is available here. 2012 UNION-WIDE ELECTIONS--NEW CAUCUS RE-ELECTED: On May 8th, The Elections Committee certified the results for the 2012 PSC-CUNY elections for the 27-member Executive Council (including president, first vice president, secretary and treasurer), delegates to the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) bi-annual convention, delegates to the annual Representative Assembly of the New York State United Teachers (NYSUT) and PSC delegates to the annual meeting of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP).
