Recommendation: Provides a position on an issue that represents the views of a constituent group or committee based on a vote of the members of the committee or
group. An administrator in charge of an area may also make a formal recommendation representing the area.
Advice/Input: Provides input to a decision-maker that is not based on a formal vote.
Representation: Provides a voting member (s) to serve on a committee.
* College Council includes representatives of each constituent group and members are sometimes asked to discuss issues with their groups. Recommendations,
however, always flow from the constituent groups to the President.
