Board Role in College Governing Bodies

Unless as provided in specific board-approved policy or state law, all substantive recommendations of college groups will be reviewed by the president who shall transmit them to the Board chair with his/her comments. The Board chair will determine if such recommendations are to be placed on the agenda for Board review and action.

The Board of Trustees may delegate to college groups or individuals certain appropriate operating responsibilities, provided that such delegation shall in no way set aside the authority or final responsibility of the president of the college, nor the policies or authority of the Board of Trustees itself. The Board of Trustees may revoke all such delegated responsibility by action in a regular meeting.
