Regents

The ÁùºÏ²Êͼ¿â Board of Regents is the governing board for the state’s public universities: ÁùºÏ²Êͼ¿â State University, Northern ÁùºÏ²Êͼ¿â University and the University of ÁùºÏ²Êͼ¿â. The board provides policy guidance in such areas as: academic and student affairs; financial and human resource programs; student tuition, fees and financial aid programs; university capital development plans; strategic plans; legal affairs; and public and constituent outreach.

The board consists of twelve members, eleven voting and one non-voting. This includes the governor and superintendent of public instruction as ex-officio members, each serving while they hold office, and two student regents.

Except for ex-officio members and student regents, and as noted, the term of a regent is eight years. As regents finish their terms, new regents are appointed by the governor and confirmed by the Senate.
