Board Retreat INFORMATION This item is for information only BACKGROUND The Board of Regents last met in retreat in April 2015. That retreat focused on Board functioning and best governance practices. The last time the Board broadly discussed ongoing trends was in December 1992, closing out implementation reports on the UW 2000 strategic planning exercise begun in September 1985. At this meeting, the Board plans to surface discussion of long-term issues at the Board level. It expects to make no conclusions, but to open lines of questioning and discussion to shape the agendas of future meetings. President Cauce and Provost Richards will lead discussion on the basis of attached reading assignments and yesterday evening’s presentations. The meeting will recess for visits to laboratories and discussions of research and teaching at Friday Harbor Laboratories.
