City colleges may beef up meeting agendas

Chi-Town Daily News:
City Colleges of Chicago are considering providing more details about the items listed on Board of Trustees' meetings agendas.

This comes two weeks after the Chi-Town Daily News first reported that the trustees meet without telling anyone in advance about what’s on the table for discussion and voting.

At the time, several students expressed concern about the board spending their tuition dollars without students having a chance to study proposals and engage in public debate.

“We’re looking at expanding the agenda,” district spokeswoman Elsa Tullos says.

Tullos says staffers and the district’s attorney are still working out the details of what would be included in future agendas for the monthly meetings, though she said they would “give a little more information.”
I blogged the earlier story here.
