Title XI EDUCATION AND LIBRARIES

175.021. Nonvoting student representative appointed to board of curators — term — qualifications — vacancy — limit — actions — removal from office. — 1. The governor shall, by and with the advice and consent of the senate, appoint a student representative to the board of curators of Lincoln University, who shall attend all meetings and participate in all deliberations of the board. Such student representative shall not have the right to vote on any matter before the board.

2. Such student representative shall be a full-time student at the university as defined by the board, selected from a panel of three names submitted to the governor by the student government association of the university, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the state of Missouri. No person may be appointed who is not actually enrolled during the term of his or her appointment as a student at the university.

3. The term of the student representative shall be two years, except that the person first appointed shall serve until January 1, 1989.

4. If a vacancy occurs for any reason in the position of student representative, the governor shall appoint a replacement who meets the qualifications set forth in subsection 2 of this section and who shall serve until his or her successor is appointed and qualified.

5. If the student representative ceases to be a student at the university, or a resident of the state of Missouri, or fails to attend any regularly called meeting of the board of which the representative has due notice, the position shall at once become vacant, unless the absence is caused by sickness or some accident preventing the representative's arrival at the time and place appointed for the meeting.

6. The student representative shall receive the same reimbursement for expenses as other members of the board of curators receive pursuant to section 175.030.

7. Unless alternative arrangements for payment have been made and agreed to by the student and the university, the student representative shall have paid all student and tuition fees due prior to such appointment and shall pay all future student and tuition fees during the term of office when such fees are due.
