                               JUNIOR COLLEGES
    33-2119.  APPOINTMENT, QUALIFICATIONS AND TENURE OF COMMISSIONERS. When
the board of trustees of a junior college district adopts a resolution as set
forth in the preceding section, the clerk of said board shall promptly
transmit a certified copy of said resolution to the governor of the state of
Idaho, and the governor shall promptly thereafter appoint three (3) persons as
commissioners of the commission created for said district. The governor shall
certify to the clerk of the district the names of the persons so appointed,
and the clerk shall notify said persons in writing of their appointment and
the term for which each of them is appointed. The commissioners who are first
appointed shall be designated to serve for terms of one (1), two (2) and three
(3) years respectively, from the date of their appointment, but thereafter
commissioners shall be appointed as aforesaid for a term of office of 3 years,
except that all vacancies shall be filled for the unexpired term. No
commissioner may be an officer of [or] employee of the junior college district
for which the commission is created. A commissioner shall hold office until
his successor has been appointed and has qualified. A certificate of the
appointment or reappointment of any commissioner shall be filed with the
clerk, and such certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the due and proper
appointment of such commissioner. A commissioner shall receive no compensation
for his services for the authority in any capacity, but he shall be entitled
to the necessary expenses, including travel expenses, incurred in the
discharge of his duties.
    The powers of each commission shall be vested in the commissioners thereof
in office from time to time. Two (2) commissioners shall constitute a quorum
of the authority for the purpose of conducting its business and exercising its
powers and for all other purposes. Action may be taken by the authority upon a
vote of a majority of the commissioners present. The by-laws of the commission
shall designate which of the commissioners appointed shall be the first
chairman, and such chairman shall serve in the capacity of chairman until the
expiration of his term of office as commissioner. When the office of the
chairman thereafter becomes vacant, the commissioners shall select a chairman
from their number. The commissioners shall select from their number a
vice-chairman, and may employ a secretary (who may be executive director),
technical experts and such other officers, agents and employees, permanent and
temporary, as it may require, and shall determine their qualifications, duties
and compensation. The persons employed by the commission may be employees of
the junior college district but shall not be trustees of the district. For
such legal services as it may require, the commission may employ its own
counsel. The commission may delegate to one (1) or more of its agents or
employees such powers or duties as it may deem proper.
