SEARCH COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP REQUEST

for

MSUAASF and MnSCU Administrator Positions

(This form is used to obtain names of appointed bargaining unit members only)

The composition of the search committee is determined by the Hiring Manager (vice president, associate provost, dean, director or designee) that oversees the position being searched. As a

guideline for MnSCU Administrator positions, the number of bargaining unit representatives on the search committee should be proportionately representative of the employees within the Administrator’s area of authority. For MSUAASF positions, the number of MSUAASF members on the committee will not be exceeded by membership from any other bargaining unit. Note: The Office of Equity and Affirmative Action requires diversity of gender and ethnicity on all search committees.

Please complete the following to indicate which union(s) we should request to participate on the search committee and the number of representatives from each union:
