A special committee of the Regents is meeting this afternoon to select a new student Regent. Because the meeting is closed, there are no public comments. This is a good time for a reminder as to why there is a student regent, an alumni regent, but no faculty Regent. Back in the day, there was authorization for a faculty Regent. The Academic Senate turned down that opportunity and opted for a faculty representative with no voting power. While it's true that regental policies are seldom decided by one vote, perhaps it is time to reconsider this position.
