Trustees Emeriti


Trustees obtain emeritus status when they serve at least one full term of six years and attain the age of 70. By custom, if a trustee is a bishop of the United Methodist Church, he or she achieves emeritus status after serving a full term and retiring from the episcopacy. Emeriti members may attend board and committee meetings but do not vote.
