2011 CHAPTER ELECTIONS: On Thursday, May 12, 2011,the PSC Elections Committee certified the results of the Spring 2011 chapter elections. Half of the chapters were up for election, virtually all uncontested. Technically, the only exception was Hunter College, but even there only six candidates (five slate and one independent) ran for nine open delegate positions, meaning all were elected.

2010 CHAPTER ELECTIONS: On Wednesday, May 12, the PSC Elections Committee certified the results of the Spring 2010 chapter elections. Elections were scheduled for 16 chapters, but at two (the Brooklyn and Queens EOC chapters), there was no contest because no candidates filed to run. At eleven campuses, slates or candidates ran uncontested. There were three contested elections: the HEO chapter, Medgar Evers College and Kingsborough CC. The incumbent slate won in the HEO election (New Caucus) and at KCC (Faculty First). The New Caucus at MEC defeated the incumbent College Alliance at Medgar Evers. The winning candidates in all the chapter elections assumed office ten working days after certification -- Wednesday, May 26.

The results for chapter chair in the three contested elections:

  • HEO: Iris DeLutro (New Caucus) - 590/ Fred Brodzinski (HEOs United) - 224
  • KCC: Rina Yarmish (Faculty First) - 228/ Susan Farrell (New Caucus) - 184
