Share this Story(Nov. 10, 2014) -- UTSA students are invited to apply to be a UT System student regent or a student member of the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board.
In 2005, the 79th Texas Legislature authorized the governor to appoint a nonvoting student regent for each university or university system. The following session, the 80th Texas Legislature authorized the governor to appoint a nonvoting student representative to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB).
To aid the governor in his selections, the chancellor of each university system must recommend students based on applications submitted by each president on behalf of the institution's student government organization. The student appointments serve a one-year term from June 1 through May 31 of the following year.
Student appointees must:
- Be enrolled as an undergraduate or graduate student
- Be in good standing, as certified by the registrar's office
- Have a 2.5 GPA on a 4.0 scale and maintain it to continue eligibility
Once appointed, the student regent/student representative must remain enrolled at the institution during the full term.
The application deadline is 5 p.m. Friday, November 21.
