The Arizona Board of Regents will meet on campus in the Grand Ballroom of the Student Union Memorial Center tomorrow and Friday. It is the second meeting of the semester, but its first on campus at the UA since last March.

Items that will be discussed during the meeting include whether to approve five-year strategic plans for all three Arizona universities and whether to endorse a common course numbering system to simplify transferring between Arizona schools.

The board will also finalize members of the executive committee for UA Healthcare Inc. and decide whether to offer a two-year contract extension to UA baseball head coach Andrew Lopez.

The meeting is open to the public on both Thursday and Friday and students are encouraged to attend. There will be an open call to the audience session on Thursday for anyone interested in addressing the board.

The Daily Wildcat will be maintaining live blog coverage of the meeting at dailywildcat.com for those unable to attend.
