Madison College District Board Appointment Process

Each year, three members are appointed to serve three-year terms beginning July 1. The annual appointment process typically begins in January or February. Board members are not paid except for expenses incurred in the performance of their duties.

In the appointment process, equal consideration is given to the general population distribution within the Madison Area Technical College District, as well as to the distribution of women and minorities. Consideration is also given to representatives of business and industry, as required for employer and employee representatives.

No two members of the Madison Area Technical College District Board may be officials of the same governmental unit, nor may any district board member be a member of the school board that employs the school district administrator member.

All applicants are eligible to apply and be considered for the additional member category.
