Identifier: AC 0386
In addition, feeling that a conversation with the three Regents, who collectively had given 37 years to the Board, would be of benefit to others, they were given 5 questions to answer prior to the meeting.

1.Please share with us your memory of you first Board meeting. 2.What is the biggest change you have seen in the System during your tenure? 3.What do you feel is your greatest accomplishment as a Board member? 4.If there is one piece of advice you could give to a new Regent, what would that be? 5.What are your hopes for the future of the System?
