The governing board of each community college district shall fix and prescribe the duties to be performed by all persons in community college service in the district.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of law, any person may be permitted by the governing board of any community college district to serve as a nonteaching volunteer aide under the immediate supervision and direction of the academic personnel of the district to perform noninstructional work that serves to assist the academic personnel in the performance of teaching and administrative responsibilities. A nonteaching volunteer aide shall not be an employee of the district, and shall serve without compensation of any type or other benefits accorded to employees of the district, except as provided in Section 3364.5 of the Labor Code.
  (b) No district may abolish any of its classified positions and utilize volunteer aides, as authorized herein, in lieu of classified employees who are laid off as a result of the abolition of a position. A district shall not refuse to employ a person in a vacant classified position and use volunteer aides in lieu thereof.
  (c) Volunteer aides may be used to enhance a district's educational program, but not to displace classified employees, nor to allow districts to utilize volunteers in lieu of normal employee requirements.

The governing board of each community college district shall annually at its initial meeting select one of its members to serve as its representative for purposes of Article 1 (commencing with Section 4000) of Chapter 1 of Part 3. The representative selected pursuant to this section shall have one vote for each member to be elected to the county committee pursuant to Article 1 (commencing with Section 4000) of Chapter 1 of Part 3.

(a) Every educational administrator shall be employed, and all other administrators may be employed, by the governing board of the district by an appointment or contract of up to four years in duration. The governing board of a community college district, with the consent of the administrator concerned, may at any time terminate, effective on the next succeeding first day of July, the term of employment of, and any contract of employment with, the administrator of the district, and reemploy the administrator, on any terms and conditions as may be mutually agreed upon by the board and the administrator, for a new term to commence on the effective date of the termination of the existing term of employment.
  (b) If the governing board of a district determines that an administrator is not to be reemployed by appointment or contract in his or her administrative position upon the expiration of his or her appointment or contract, the administrator shall be given written notice of this determination by the governing board. For an administrator employed by appointment or contract, the term of which is longer than one year, the notice shall be given at least six months in advance of the expiration of the appointment or contract unless the contract or appointment provides otherwise. For every other administrator, notice that the administrator may not be reemployed by appointment or contract in his or her administrative position for the following college year shall be given on or before March 15.
  (c) If the governing board fails to reemploy an administrator by appointment or contract in his or her administrative position and the written notice provided for in this section has not been given, the administrator shall, unless the existing appointment or contract provides otherwise, be deemed to be reemployed for a term of the same duration as the one completed with all other terms and conditions remaining unchanged.
  (d) Subdivisions (b) and (c) do not apply to any administrator who holds a position that is funded for less than a college year, is assigned to an acting position whose continuing right to hold the position depends on being selected for the position on a regular basis, is terminated pursuant to Section 87743, 88017, or 88127, or is dismissed for cause.

In the absence of an express appointment or contract as provided in Section 72411, every administrator shall serve in his or her administrative assignment at the pleasure of the governing board. The dismissal of, and imposition of penalties for cause on, an administrator employed by appointment or contract pursuant to Section 72411 shall, if the administrator does not have tenure as a faculty member, be in accordance with the terms of the appointment or contract of employment. If the administrator has tenure as a faculty member, the dismissal of, and imposition of penalties for cause on, the administrator shall be in accordance with the provisions applicable to faculty members.

The governing board of each community college district shall provide for the payment of the travel expenses of any representatives of the board when performing services directed by the board.
