§ 8554 Governor Selects Board President

Key Takeaways

  • •The Governor picks one person from the board to be the president.
  • •This person is already a member of the board.
  • •The Governor has to choose, not the board members.

Example

Imagine a school club with a group of leaders. The principal (like the Governor) picks one of them to be the club president.

The Governor does the same thing here—picks one board member to be in charge.
