UI student trustees await decision on binding vote

University of Illinois students have called on Gov. Rod Blagojevich to choose the student trustee who will have the binding vote for them at the university's board meetings.

Following the student elections in the spring semester, the three student trustees have participated in two UI board meetings at which the student trustees cast advisory votes only.
