Summary

(1) Existing law establishes the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, as one of the segments of public postsecondary education in this state. Under existing law, the trustees are composed of a total of 25 members, which include 5 specified ex officio members, a representative of the alumni associations of the university, 16 members appointed by the Governor, subject to confirmation by 23 of the membership of the Senate, for 8-year terms, and 2 California State University students and one California State University faculty member appointed by the Governor for 2-year terms. This bill would authorize each ex officio trustee, except the Chancellor of the California State University, to designate a person, as prescribed, to attend a meeting or meetings of the trustees in his or her absence. The bill would prohibit an ex officio trustee from designating more than one person to attend meetings of the trustees in any calendar year. (2) Existing provisions of the California Constitution provide that the University of California constitutes a public trust and requires the university to be administered by the Regents of the University of California, a corporation in the form of a board, with full powers of organization and government, subject to legislative control only for specified purposes. These provisions require the membership of the board to be composed of 18 appointive members, appointed by the Governor and approved by the Senate, and the following 7 ex officio members: the Governor, the Lieutenant Governor, the Speaker of the Assembly, the Superintendent of Public Instruction, and the president and vice president of the alumni association of the university and the acting president of the university. These provisions also require the corporation to have all powers necessary or convenient for the effective administration of its trust, including the power to delegate to its committees or to the faculty of the university, or to others, such authority or functions as it may deem wise. This bill would express legislative intent that each ex officio member of the board, to the extent authorized pursuant to those provisions of the California Constitution, designate a person to attend a meeting or meetings of the board in the member's absence.
