The California State University Board of Trustees is responsible for the oversight of the system’s 23 schools. The 25-member group adopts the governing rules, regulations and policies of the campus, and now Talar Alexanian, a student at California State University, Northridge, has joined them.
Gov. Jerry Brown made the announcement of Alexanian’s appointment, which will last for two years. Alexanian will serve as the non-voting student trustee in her first year and assume the voting student trustee position—which is currently being held by Cipriano Vargas of California State University, San Marcos—in her second year.
