Board of Regents approves President Randy Harp’s evaluation and extends contract
Summary
The Eastern Oklahoma State College Board unanimously approved President Randy Harp’s annual evaluation and voted to extend his contract, with final terms to be settled by June 2026 following an executive session held April 17.
The Eastern Oklahoma State College Board of Regents voted April 17 to approve the annual evaluation of President Randy Harp and to extend his employment contract for an additional term, with final terms to be finalized no later than June 2026.
Regent Brian Lott moved to approve the evaluation and contract extension; Regent Jerry Hamilton seconded. The motion passed on a roll-call vote with all voting members in favor. The Board had met in executive session earlier in the day under Oklahoma Statutes Title 25, § 307 (B)(1) to discuss the contract and evaluation; Chairman Latt Jeffrey later stated that "no votes were taken and no business was conducted other than what was presented on the agenda." The Board recorded entering executive session at 12:42 p.m. and exiting at 3:46 p.m.
The Board’s public action leaves the outline of final contract terms open: the motion specifies that details will be determined and finalized by June 2026. The minutes do not specify salary, term length, or other compensation specifics. The Board’s certificate of minutes was signed by Secretary Larry Spradley and Chair Latt Jeffrey.
The vote followed the Board’s executive-session deliberations and a public return to open session; the minutes record the motion, second, and unanimous vote to approve the evaluation and extension.
