The Utah State Board of Regents was formed in 1969 as a governing body for the Utah System of Higher Education. It is made up of Dixie State University, Salt Lake Community College, Snow College, Southern Utah University, the University of Utah, Utah State University, Utah Valley University, and Weber State University.
The Board consists of sixteen regents and one student regent appointed by the Governor of Utah. The Board oversees the establishment of policies and procedures, executive appointments, master planning, budget and finance, proposals for legislation, develops governmental relationships, and performs administrative unit and program approval for higher education for the State of Utah.
The first commissioner and executive officer of the Utah System of Higher Education was G. Homer Durham, the former president of Arizona State University.
