Purdue University's Board of Trustees consists of ten members
appointed by the governor of Indiana. Three of these members one
of whom must be a graduate of the School of Agriculture are
nominated by the Purdue Alumni Association. The 1975 General Assembly
provided for the tenth member, a student. The Board selects the
president of the University, decides major policy lines, approves
the financial program and budget, approves the president's nominations
for major appointments, and approves all construction and major
contracts.
