A Board of Visitors for each institution under

mendations and assists in the preparation of the
annual institutional budget, development of insti-
tutional facilities, conduct and development of
community related programs, development of
community and private support for the institution,
and selection of a president. Each Board also
carries out such responsibilities as may be delegat-
ed to it by the Board of Trustees of the State
Universities and Colleges or by the president of the
institution.

The Governor appoints seven members for five-
year staggered terms. The other two members
include a faculty member elected to a two-year
