Established in 1931, it unifies the state's public colleges and universities under a single authority. Composed of 19 members, including representatives from the state-at-large and each congressional district, the Board oversees the University System of Georgia, as well as the Georgia Archives and the Georgia Public Library Service.
The Board of Regents is responsible for appointing a chancellor who serves as the chief executive officer of the University System. Regents, who are appointed by the governor for seven-year terms, volunteer their time and expertise without financial remuneration. With a commitment to excellence in education, the Board of Regents plays a vital role in shaping the future of higher education in Georgia.
