This board, which was organized in 1919, is composed of seven members who are appointed by the Governor with the approval of the Senate and who serve definite terms of from one to seven years. At least three of the members must be alumni of the University. The President of the University is responsible to the Board and meets with them periodically to discuss University affairs and policies. The Board chooses the President, and appointments of other administrative officials and of members of the faculty must have its approval. All acts of the University administration are subject to the review of the Board, which may countermand them if it sees fit. The Regents are responsible only to the Legislature and may be removed only through impeach- ment or by legislative act changing the law by which the Board was created. Page 21
