The University of Washington Board of Regents convened a special meeting and entered an executive session to review the qualifications of candidates for public employment under PRCw4.3.1.20, according to remarks in the meeting transcript.

The executive session was announced after the meeting was called to order and roll call was taken. The transcript records a statement that the board would go into an executive session specifically to review qualifications for public employment; the transcript does not record any public votes, appointments, or the names of candidates discussed.

The transcript includes a brief roll call with at least one absentee noted; further attendance details and any materials reviewed in the closed session were not included in the public record provided. The meeting text also used language identifying the gathering as a special meeting of the board and described the agenda item as an executive-session personnel review under the cited policy number.

Because Washington law and typical university rules permit personnel-qualification reviews in closed session, the board’s move to an executive session is consistent with standard procedure for confidential personnel matters. The transcript provided does not contain references to any formal action, motion, or vote taken in open session on this subject.

No further public outcomes or follow-up directions were recorded in the transcript excerpt. Any decisions, appointments, or additional actions resulting from the executive session were not included in the provided record.
