A member of the Faculty Board has many responsibilities, of which towards students. It’s important that student interests are discussed within the application interview of a Faculty Board member. The best way to make sure student interests are represented, is by having a student as part of the application committee. For two years, a student, directly appointed by the Faculty Board, can be a member of the application committee for Faculty Board members.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Here arises a problem: when a Faculty Board can directly appoint the student within the application committee, it is a bit like marking your own paper. Can critical and independent representation of student interests be guaranteed?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Faculty Boards are <\/span>not <\/b>elected, and should therefore not completely influence the composition of the application committee.
