Regent Governance Reform Act modifies the state board of regents' membership and functions.

The Regent Governance Reform Act amends the state board of regents' membership and functions. It changes the appointment process for the ninth member, who must be a student enrolled at one of three institutions. The bill also adds five ex officio, nonvoting members to the board, including students and legislative appointees. The board is required to develop policies on faculty senate governance, post-tenure reviews, and new majors or minors. The act allows the general assembly to disapprove ongoing expenditures by the board or institutions under its governance.
