Administrative history
The Board of Governors of Nipissing College is one of the two governing bodies of Nipissing University, the other being the Academic Senate. The Board was established in 1967, and was initially made up mostly of members of the former Executive Council of Northeastern University. When the College was granted a university charter in 1992, the <i>Nipissing University Act</i> established the Board of Governors as one of the two legislative branches of Nipissing University’s bicameral governance system.
Custodial history
The records in the Minutes Series were in the custody of the Board of Governors Secretary until they were transferred to the Archives in August 2014. The custodial history of the other records is unknown.
