Auxiliary Enterprise Corporation (CUNY Bylaws Section 16.10) – (1 to 2 members appointed by the president from a panel of 2-6 members selected by the college council)

Charge of the Committee:  The auxiliary enterprise corporation shall have responsibility for the oversight, supervision and review over college auxiliary enterprises. All budgets of auxiliary enterprise funds and all contracts for auxiliary enterprises shall be reviewed by the auxiliary enterprise corporation prior to expenditure or execution.

  • the college president or his/her designee as chair (1)
  • four students (4)
  • faculty and administrative members (4 total)
  • two independent directors (2)

Since the college president appoints faculty members from a panel whose size is twice the number of seats to be filled, it is reasonable for the college council to elect a panel with a minimum of 2 members and a maximum of 6 members)
