Your 2025 Academic Senate ballot will include two ballot measures to amend the Constitution of the Academic Senate. They are separate measures to be voted up or down independently of one another. As per, the two amendments are in the following Articles:

1. Article III Membership - Add the language “In an election where the number of candidates is smaller than Council seats available, these department limits shall be suspended. No department should constitute a majority of the Council. Members so elected will remain on Council for a single year.”
2. Article V Term of Office - Increase the number of consecutive Council terms from two terms to three terms
