The Board of Regents of Kentucky State University (the “Board”) held a special called meeting on Thursday, October 9, 2025, in the Julian Carroll Academic Services Building, Second Floor Board Room, on the campus of Kentucky State University in Frankfort, Kentucky. Some Regents participated via videoconference consistent with the Kentucky Open Meetings Act.
Chair Regent Tammi Dukes called the meeting to order at 2:08 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. She noted that the meeting date had originally been scheduled for October 10, 2025, but was moved up one day to accommodate Homecoming activities and President Akakpo's commitments. Chair Dukes thanked the Regents for their flexibility.
Because this was a special called meeting, Chair Dukes emphasized that the Board would act only on items listed on the published agenda. Any additional topics would be tabled until the next regular meeting.
Acting Secretary Michael DeCourcy called the roll.
