During a meeting with the WSU Board of Regents at Spokane, Terrell said he has it on “pretty good authority” that legislation aimed at establishing a statewide governing board will be introduced in the next session beginning in January.

“Certainly there is a wide range of interest in changing higher education in Washington,” Terrell said. “We will see a sharp change in the governing of higher education in the next year of two.”
