Current Board Members
The Board of Regents consists of eleven members, one of whom is a student and one of whom is a member of the faculty. Regents are appointed by the governor to serve six-year terms, with the exception of the Student Regent, who serves a one-year term, and the Faculty Regent, who serves a three-year term. Regents serve after the expiration of their terms until they resign or until the Governor appoints a replacement.
Officers of the Board are elected each year at the September meeting.
