CES Past Directors

C&B Changes to the Board

One of the largest changes made to the Constitution and Bylaws in 2019 was the elmination of Directors as part of the governing body of CES. With less numbers in membership, it was decided there were too many board positions and difficult to fill them all so it was voted on and approved to reduce the board to only 10 Officers. This page pays tribute to all those who graciously gave their time and talents to Chi Epsilon Sigma Director through the years.

Beginning in 2012, CES reverted to Regional representation.  At least three directors, each representing a region, are elected to serve 2-year terms.  Additional representatives may be added if membership numbers warrant  additional representation. 2012 to 2019 (2-Year Terms) the naming of these positions changed many times to reflect the reorganizations that happened within Extension. The data may not be 100% accurate.
