The President shall serve as the channel of communication between the Board and all subordinate administrative officers and personnel of the internal College organization.

Communications among Board members, including e-mail communications, are

governed by the Illinois Open Meetings Act, and the prohibitions in that Act are the same, whether communication is face to face or by email or other electronic means.  Board members and College employees may use email to send messages or forward information to each other, either on an individual or group basis, but shall not discuss College business in a “chat room” setting that involves three or more Board members, or in any other manner that violates the Illinois Open Meetings Act.
