Summary

Trustees approved the appointment of Ashley Mallon as a student trustee (nonvoting on the full board, voting on the Education, Research and Service committee) and Dr. Ken Vickers as the ERS faculty representative.

The Board of Trustees approved two committee appointments during the special electronic meeting: Ashley Mallon was appointed as the student member of the board (a nonvoting member of the full board and a voting member of the Education, Research and Service committee) and Dr. Ken Vickers was appointed as the faculty representative to the ERS committee.

Chancellor Freeman (campus not specified in the transcript for the nomination) recommended Ashley Mallon; trustees noted Mallon’s campus involvement, leadership roles and a 4.0 GPA while the presenter said Mallon was traveling overseas at the time of appointment. Linda Barton of UT Southern recommended Dr. Ken Vickers, who the speaker described as a long-time faculty member involved in curricular changes and accreditation and who participated in the Martin Methodist College transition.

Trustees moved and adopted the resolutions by roll-call vote; recorded votes on the appointment resolution were unanimous from trustees present. The appointments are one-year terms as specified in the meeting materials and were presented as effective immediately for committee participation.
