Texas A&M President Elsa Murano’s job could be on the line in the coming week when the A&M System’s Board of Regents meets.
The university system’s governing board, according to an agenda item for a meeting scheduled for Monday in College Station, will discuss “Appointment, Employment, Evaluation, Reassignment, Duties, Discipline or Dismissal of Executive Level Officers and/or Employees of The Texas A&M University System.”
The meeting comes less than two weeks after release of a highly critical performance review of Murano, who received low marks for leadership and management, including the lowest marks possible for decisiveness and for not being a team player in her first full year on the job.

System spokesman Rod Davis has denied any merger plans are in the works.
