Branstad to Fill Regents Vacancy Ahead of Tuition Decision
Gov. Terry Branstad said he will fill the vacancy on the state Board of Regents not long after Nicole Carroll's resignation, but he won't rush before the December board meeting to decide whether to freeze or raise resident tuition at Iowa’s three state universities. He expects a female, western-Iowa resident, possibly an independent or Democrat, to balance the board, and to ensure a team-first appointee. Carroll's term would have run through 2017, and the board plans to discuss a 1.75 percent tuition increase or freeze at its December session.
