On December 19, 1967, the voters elected six people to serve on the first Board of Trustees. In 2020, the Board of Trustees voted to add a seventh member. The board meets regularly on the first Monday of every month at 7:30 p.m. in the Board Room of Seward County Community College. All regular and special meetings of the Board of Trustees are open to the public. Responsibilities of the trustees include the selection of a president, the establishment of an operational policy, and the overall welfare of the college.
