ARIZONA BOARD OF REGENTS
Leadership for Arizona’s Public University System
The Arizona Board of Regents is the constitutionally created governing body of Arizona’s public university system, providing policy guidance to Arizona State
University, Northern Arizona University, and the University of Arizona in such areas as:
• Academic and student affairs
• Financial and human resource programs
• Student tuition, fees and financial aid programs
• University capital development plans
• Strategic plans
• Legal affairs
• Public and constituent outreach
The Board consists of 12 members. Eight volunteer members are appointed by the Governor to staggered eight-year terms. Two students serve on the Board for two-year appointments, with the first year being a
nonvoting apprentice year. The Governor and the Superintendent of Public Instruction serve as voting ex-officio members. As its mission, the Arizona Board of Regents is
committed to:
• Ensuring access for qualified residents of Arizona
to undergraduate and graduate instruction;
• Promoting the discovery, application, and
dissemination of new knowledge;
• Extending the benefits of university activities to Arizona’s citizens outside the university; and
• Maximizing the benefits derived from the state’s investment in education.
CHANGING DIRECTIONS
Initiative to ensure
excellence at
Arizona’s public
universities
In August 2002, the Arizona Board of Regents, faced with
rapidly increasing student enrollments and large cuts to university
budgets, launched Changing Directions, an on-going, multi-faceted
initiative to reform the Arizona university system. The initiative is
focused on how to:
• Improve the quality of educational programs;
• Increase student success;
• Enable each university to capitalize on its
strengths and opportunities;
• Enhance and diversity university funding
streams;
• Increase the affordability of a university
education; and
• Stimulate the local and state economies by
providing opportunities for economic development.
With Changing Directions, the Regents initiated a
comprehensive review of university revenue sources and management
strategies to provide the universities with the resources that they
need. The Board also has revamped its policy framework to enable
the university presidents to reshape their programs so that they can
better meet the needs of Arizona’s citizens and communities. As a result
of these changes, educational options for students will become more
diverse as institutional missions become more focused and universities
collaborate further on academic program offerings.

The Board of Regents convenes regular
meetings to discuss and take action on the important
issues facing higher education in our state. It is
vital that students, educators, and the public be
involved in this discussion. To this end, the Regents
have set a high priority on publishing the following
