The Vermont State Colleges Board of Trustees plays a vital role in the college experiences of more than 12,000 students of all ages, backgrounds, and lifestyles. The Board also provides oversight for institutions that are vital to the training of Vermont’s future workforce and the state’s economic development.

The Board of Trustees provides leadership and governance at the system level. Together the Board navigates the challenging waters of higher education today, addressing issues of funding, sustainability, accessibility, affordability, and student retention and completion.

About the Board

The Board of Trustees is a body of 15 people. Five are appointed by the Governor of Vermont, four trustees are elected by the Board, and four trustees are state legislators who are elected by the General Assembly. There is also one student trustee elected by the VSCS Student Government Association. All trustees serve a four-year term, with the exception of the student trustee, who serves a one-year term but can be reelected to a second term. Finally, the Governor is an ex officio Board member.
