  • The Board will also elect its officers at the conclusion of the meeting; president, vice-president and secretary, each of whom will serve a one-year term.

Tuition and fee proposals from each of Idaho’s four-year institutions, which are normally taken up during the April Board meeting, will be considered at a later date.
