The March 8, 2019 meeting of the board of regents to discuss the Task Force on Building Names and Institutional History Report led to the president and provost to send a university-wide memo. They stated that some regents had requested more information, which would be provided. They also reiterated the important work of the task force. This memo was viewed as support for the work of the faculty on the task force. Some viewed it as insufficient in light of aggressive and even threatening remarks by two regents.
