Board of Trustees

The College is governed by a six-member Board of Trustees comprised of residents of Doniphan County, the location of the original campus, who are elected for four-year terms. Three members are up for re-election every two years. On the state level, HCC is coordinated by the Kansas Board of Regents (KBOR), which governs the state’s six universities. KBOR was reconstituted by legislative action in 1999 to include coordination of the state’s 19 community colleges and 12 technical schools. Prior to 1999, Kansas community colleges and technical schools were under the auspices of the State Board of Education, which governs the state’s K-12 system. The 1999 change was designed to implement a seamless system of higher education in the state.

The Board of Trustees meets every fourth Wednesday of the month, with the exception of August, November, and December, which are held on the third Wednesday. Meetings begin at 6:30 PM in the David Reist Administration Building Conference Room on the HCC Main Campus.
