Alumni-Elected Regents Process
In June 2016, Baylor welcomed the first Alumni-elected Regents to service on the Board. Alumni-elected Regents serve 3-year terms; however, the 2016 appointees were installed with 1-, 2- and 3-year terms to allow the election process to commence. The process outlined on this site governs the annual nomination, review, and selection of Alumni-elected Regents. As Alumni-elected Regents complete their terms, the graduates of Baylor University will elect or re-elect Alumni-elected Regents following the timeline below:
October - December 15 | Nominations accepted via nomination form (or via submission through official University advisory groups) |
December - March | Nominee submissions reviewed and candidates selected |
April | Public announcement of final candidates and their credentials for service |
Early May | Baylor graduates vote in the election of Alumni-elected Regents |
May | Public announcement of election results following the May Board meeting. |
June 1 | Alumni-elected Regent begins service |
In the 2022-23 election cycle, nominees will be accepted for one Alumni-elected Regent seat. Three candidates will be selected from the nominees. The candidate with the largest number of alumni votes will be selected as Alumni-elected Regent.
