THE ABC EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE (REGENTS)
The definition of "regent" is:
1. One acting as a ruler or governor.
2. A member of a board that governs an institution, such as a college, seminary or university.
3. Members of a governing board.
The ABC Board of Regents is the executive committee most responsible for providing advice and direction to the school and staff where policy and protocol is concerned. A complaint about the school may be made to any of the regents, who in turn, shall notify the chancellor for swift investigation and correction of legitimate issues.
Regents serve without compensation and are not bound legally or financially by any rule law or policy. There are two types of regents at Apostolic Bible College: Executive Regents & Staff Executive Regents.
The difference is simply that because of their years of dedication and hard work, Staff Executive Regents are considered "vested persons" and responsible for the day to day operation of the school.
What are the duties of the Staff Executive Regents?
Staff Executive Regents establish policy in areas such as personnel, campus development, student fees, admissions, and day to day operation. The duties of the Regents also include overseeing the financial management of the school, as well as advising the President of the college, referring and approving names of staff, faculty, regents, directors and officers. Assisting the school's president and ensuring that quality programs and education are first, are the most important functions of the Board of Regents.
The ABC Board Of Regents was created by Dr. L. McNeese to maintain quality and accountability within the systems of the school. Regents serve for an indefinite period and may be removed only by their own request or recommendation from the chancellor to the Board of Staff Executive Regents.
