The Kansas Board of Regents Governance Committee recessed into a closed executive session July 24 to discuss CEO compensation for fiscal year 2027 under state statute, a committee member moved publicly at the start of the special meeting.
“I move that the open meeting of the Kansas Board of Regents governance committee recess into a closed executive session pursuant to KSA 75-4319(a) to discuss CEO compensation for fiscal year 2027,” the mover said, listing those who should attend the closed session as members of the governance committee, the interim president and CEO, general counsel John Urie and KBOR director for finance and administration Becky Pottabaugh. The motion included a public estimate that the closed session would last approximately 45 minutes and that the open meeting would resume at 9:15 a.m.
The chair called for a voice vote, the committee responded in the affirmative and the public portion recessed into executive session. The publicly recorded motion cited KSA 75-4319, the Kansas statute authorizing closed sessions for personnel matters.

The committee returned to open session later and adjourned with no additional public actions recorded.
