THE HOWARD UNIVERSITY BOARD OF TRUSTEES Howard University, though heavily financed by the Federal Government, is, nevertheless, a private institution. The Board of Trustees is the final governing body of the University. The Board of Trustees adopts basic policies and established underlying rules and regulations governing the University's operations. All personnel appointments are subject to the approval of the Board The Board, of course, delegates to the President and to the instructional and administrative staffs and committees the bulk of the responsibility and accountability for the conduct of the University’s day-to-day operations. Final responsibility and authority, however, rest with the Board. The membership of Howard's Board of Trustees is widely representative of various segments of the public which the University serves. The Board is 3 self-perpetuating body, in that new members are elected by the existing members, except that the alumni of the University elect two members to the Board.
