The
Board of Regents and Institutional Governance at EMU
The Board of Regents is the governing body of Eastern Michigan
University. Its current format was created when the State of
Michigan ratified a new constitution Jan. 6, 1964. The Board
comprises eight regents who are appointed to eight-year terms
by the governor.
The
current EMU Regents are Thomas W. Sidlik,
chair; Roy Wilbanks, vice chair; Floyd
Clack; Gary D. Hawks; Philip A. Incarnati;
Mohamed Okdie; Francine Parker; and James
F. Stapleton. More
information about the regents is here.
"Other
institutions of higher education established by law having
authority to grant baccalaureate degrees shall each be governed
by a board of control which shall be a body corporate. The
board shall have general supervision of the institution and
the control and direction of all expenditures from the institution's
funds. It shall, as often as necessary, elect a president of
the institution under its supervision. He shall be the principal
executive officer of the institution and be ex-officio a member
of the board without the right to vote. The board may elect
one of its members or may designate the president to preside
at board meetings. Each board of control shall consist of eight
members who shall hold office for terms of eight years, not
more than two of which shall expire in the same year, and who
shall be appointed by the governor by and with the advice and
consent of the Senate. Vacancies shall be filled in like manner."
