Governor Kevin Stitt appointed Tracy Poole to the Oklahoma A&M Board of Regents, replacing Trudy Milner who resigned following the departure of former OSU President Kayse Shrum. Milner’s term was set to expire on April 4, but she stepped down effective February 6. The Oklahoma A&M Board of Regents oversees five colleges and universities, including Oklahoma State University. Poole, a resident of Tulsa, will now serve on the board. This change in leadership comes amidst a period of transition for the Oklahoma higher education system. The resignation of both Milner and Shrum has raised questions about the future direction of the board and its relationship with the universities it oversees. Governor Stitt’s decision to appoint Poole reflects a continued effort to bring new perspectives to the board and ensure effective governance of the state’s higher education institutions. As the board continues to navigate through these changes, stakeholders will be watching closely to see how the new appointee will contribute to the board’s decision-making processes and help shape the future of the higher education system in Oklahoma.
