University of California: meetings of the Regents.

Summary

The bill amends the Education Code so that meetings of the University of California’s Academic Senate and Board of Admissions and Relations with Schools are treated as Regents meetings under the Bagley‑Keene Open Meeting Act. This subjects those bodies to the same transparency requirements as the UC Board of Regents, ensuring public access to their deliberations. The change aims to increase openness in university governance.
