C.R.S. Section 23-41-102
Board of trustees

  • term

(1)

Intentionally left blank —Ed.

(a)

There is created a board of trustees of the Colorado school of mines to be composed of nine members. Seven members shall be appointed by the governor to terms of up to four years, expiring on December 31 of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which the member is appointed; except that the terms shall be staggered so that no more than four members’ terms expire in the same year.

(b)

Of the seven members appointed by the governor, no more than four members may be affiliated with the same political party. In appointing members to the board of trustees, the governor shall ensure that no more than two of the members serving on the board of trustees at any one time reside outside the state of Colorado. In addition, the governor shall base the appointments on consideration of:

(I)

An appointee’s professional background related to the industries and fields for which the Colorado school of mines prepares students for employment and in which the faculty of the institution conduct research;

(II)

Other areas of professional expertise that an appointee may bring to the appointee’s service on the board of trustees; and

(III)

The appointee’s commitment to using the appointee’s personal time and efforts to serve and support the Colorado school of mines.

(c)

The two remaining member positions shall be filled by:

(I)

An elected member of the student body who is a full-time junior or senior student at the Colorado school of mines. The term of the elected student member’s office is one year, beginning on July 1. The elected student member is advisory, without the right to vote. As used in this subsection (1), “full-time student” has the same definition as “full-time equivalent student” used by the joint budget committee of the general assembly.

(II)

A full-time member of the academic faculty of the Colorado school of mines elected by a majority of at least sixty-seven percent of the academic faculty. Elected faculty members serve two-year terms commencing January 1 of each odd-numbered year. The elected faculty member is advisory, without the right to vote.

(2)

Members shall hold their offices for the terms for which they have been appointed and until their successors are appointed and qualified. Any four of the members of the board appointed by the governor constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The board has such powers and shall perform such duties as specified in the laws creating the institution and providing for its maintenance.
