Special classes of positions within the academic staff may be established to meet specialized professional or technical needs, in accordance with Article IX, Section 4a.

On motion of Mr. Grabowski, this amendment was approved. By consensus, the board agreed that one roll call vote would be taken and considered the vote on each agenda item nos. 19 through 32 inclusive. The recommendations were individually discussed but acted upon at one time. (The record of board action appears at the end of each item.)
