Regents to consider continuing presidential delegations of authority for incoming president
Summary
The Board of Regents packet includes a resolution that would continue prior delegations of authority to the incoming university president; the board planned to take action at the March 7/April meeting after a committee review.
The Washington State University Board of Regents reviewed a proposed resolution to continue delegations of authority to the university’s incoming president and scheduled formal action for the next open meeting.
Provost and committee members told regents that Resolution 25 03 07‑726 (as cited in the packet) would grant the incoming president the same delegations the board previously had granted to President Schulz. Committee members said the packet recommends no substantive changes to those delegations; the purpose is to ensure the incoming president has the authority necessary to lead on day one.
The committee discussed the resolution during the March 6 Executive and Governance Committee meeting and will forward it to the Board of Regents for action at the next open session. Regents emphasized the routine nature of the step and said any substantial policy changes would be brought back to the board for explicit consideration.
No formal vote on the resolution took place in committee on March 6; the board’s public meeting agenda lists the delegation resolution as an action item for the next meeting.
