OVCR-CASI Districts
The CASI consists of 12 voting academic staff members, ten of whom are elected by the Office of Vice Chancellor for Research's academic staff and two of whom are appointed by the Vice Chancellor. There are two non-voting members, the Vice Chancellor and the Assistant Vice Chancellor for Human Resources. The Committee may recommend to the Vice Chancellor that additional non-voting member(s) be appointed to provide ongoing expertise in any area(s) that it deems necessary.
The districting plan places each of the approximately 900 staff in one of 10 districts for the purpose of electing voting members of the CASI. The plan favors OVCR Center and location over job title in contrast to the Assembly plan which favors job title. The larger Centers are somewhat under-represented relative to the smaller Centers.
