Re-elected PSC trustees oppose governance plan shift
Prairie State College trustees Michael Monteleone and Mark Fazzini won new five year terms and oppose moving to policy governance. Patricia Maun also won a seat while President Ed Gardiner lost his seat. Monteleone says a 4-3 board makes the switch infeasible, while Gardiner and others push to continue exploring policy governance and oversight of President Lightfield.
