(NIU) Board of Visitors (BoV)
AGENCY: Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

with independent advice and recommendations on matters concerning the

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Executive Vice President, NIU, ODNI,
Patricia Larsen, 301-243-2121, <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#47223f24282a072823292e69202831"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="88edf0ebe7e5c8e7ece6e1a6efe7fe">[email protected]</span></a>.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background and Authority
Pursuant to 50 U.S.C. 3227c, 41 CFR part 102-3, and the Federal
Advisory Committee Act of 1972 (5 U.S.C. appendix, as amended), the
ODNI, announces the establishment of the NIU BoV by the Director of
National Intelligence (DNI).
The NIU is the Intelligence Community's (IC) sole accredited,
federal degree-granting institution. Cleared government students,
representing a mixture from federal agencies and all branches of the
United States Armed Services, come to NIU to gain knowledge, drive
debate, participate in collaborative learning and information sharing,
and engage in research concerning intelligence and national security
topics in a classified setting. Previously, NIU was part of the Defense
Intelligence Agency (DIA). However, Congress subsequently mandated that
the DNI and the Secretary of Defense work together to transition the
NIU from the DIA and into the ODNI. See Section 5324(b)(l) of the
National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2020
(Pub. L. 116-92).
The NIU BoV shall provide the DNI independent advice and
recommendations on NIU matters, including, but not limited to, mission,
policy, accreditation, faculty, students, facilities, curricula,
educational methods, research, and administration. The BoV fulfills a
key element of the NIU's accreditation in ensuring that its primary
purpose is educational and that it operates as an academic institution
with appropriate autonomy. As such, its functions cannot be performed
by the ODNI, another existing committee, or other means.
The NIU BoV is essential to the NIU's administration and continued
accreditation. As the IC's sole degree-granting institution, NIU is the
leading institution for intelligence education, in-depth research, and
interagency engagement. NIU's continued service to the national
security community, under BoV guidance, is in the public interest.
II. Structure
The Board shall consist of up to 12 members, including the Chair.
Members
[[Page 76514]]
are appointed to provide advice on the basis of their best judgment
without representing any particular points of view and in a manner that
is free from conflict of interest.
The members and chair shall possess extensive professional
experience in the fields of national intelligence, national defense, or
academia.
As necessary, subordinate subcommittees may be established with the
approval of the DNI or designee to perform specific functions within
the Board's purview.
Members shall be invited to serve for consecutive terms of one
year, for a total not to exceed six years.
Meetings shall be held a minimum of two times per year at the call
of the Designated Federal Official or designee who shall approve the
agenda and shall be present at all meetings.
III. Compensation
NIU BoV members who are not Regular Government Employees (RGE) will
not be paid salaries, wages, or compensation attributable to their
services. If necessary and if requested, members may be reimbursed for
travel and daily expenses incurred in connection with their service in
accordance with the Federal Travel Regulations. Participating RGEs will
continue to receive their government salary and may receive government
per diem and travel allowances for any applicable NIU BOV-related work.

Deputy Chief Operating Officer.
