Revise board of regents laws to remove statutory requirement for student regent
SB 210 would eliminate the statutory requirement for Montana's Board of Regents to include a student regent in its membership. Currently, the law mandates one seat for a full-time college student with a one-year term, appointed through a nomination process. The bill deletes this provision, meaning the Board would no longer need to appoint a student member. A transition plan requires the governor to appoint a replacement for the vacated position until January 2030, after which regular 7-year appointments would resume.
