Unusual Off-Cycle Regents Meeting

There will be an unusual meeting of the full Board of Regents on June 23rd along with off-cycle meetings of the Health Services Committee and the Governance Committee. The Health Services Committee was pre-scheduled for off-cycle meetings, so that is not unusual. The Governance off-cycle meeting seems to be the result of a need to approve an executive appointment. 

However, the full board is meeting twice; at the beginning for public comment and at the end where there will be the usual presentations. But there is also scheduled an action item on "Adoption of Regents Policy on Affiliations with Healthcare Organizations that Have Adopted Policy-Based Restrictions on Care." Presumably, this is actually a discussion of arrangements with Dignity Health, the Catholic hospital system which has religion-based prohibitions on certain procedures such as abortion. So, the topic will be controversial.

These sessions are still planned for the Zoom format, despite the much heralded June 15th reopening of the state.

The full agenda of the various sessions is below:
