SBR: University of North Alabama, board of trustees, provide terms of office of six y
http://alisondb.legislature.state.al.us/...99-int.pdf

Representative Pettus and co-signed by representatives Greer and Ball to have the term of University of North Alabama trustees changed from 12 to 6 years. The board would be broken up into 3 groups and rotate out for elections.

Wonder could be get them to support us if Jack or *Rogers supports them?
*I think a lot of our attention has been focused on Jack but Rogers needs some help as well.

I think it's crazy that every public university in the state has a completely different set of rules regarding trustee selection, the length and number of their terms, and whether or not a trustee can be removed by the Governor.

That's the problem, big time. I say, unless you are a private school, if you receive state funding your institution should fall under a state board of regents. Each school can have it's trustees, but they in turn answer to the regents. With all school trustees and regents members having unified governing rules.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Every public college and university in the state should follow North Alabama's lead. If the particular university has multiple campuses, there should be additional verbiage to assure equal or proportional representation on the BoT as well.

Absolutely.

The legislature should consolidate all the universities in the state under the UA Board of Trustees. The UABOT does such a good job. Every university should benefit from their calibre of leadership.

There's already the Alabama Commission on Higher Education. It approves all new degree programs and major changes to degree programs as well as some other oversight. IMO that is really all that needs to be coordinated between every single university in the state. Otherwise, each university or system should maintain their own boards that have the remaining amount of control. Each of those boards, though, should be accountable to the people via the ability for the Governor to remove members (not that it'd do much good in UAB's case) and that board members should be selected in an open process without input from the existing board

Problem w/ having some kind of overall state BOR in this state or anything similar is that they still will fill it with "their" people w/ all the corruption we have in our state politics & the effect will still be the same just on a grander scale. To fix things you need to minimize their control over anything other than themselves & have someone higher than them thats more unbiased or at least less biased against others as well as limit their time in control lest they become just as tyrannical
