Such notice shall be distributed and posted in accordance with the laws of the state governing such meetings. The presence of a regent at the meeting or the regent's written waiver of notice filed with the secretary shall constitute a waiver of receiving written notice of the meeting. When the meeting is called to deal with an emergency involving injury or damage, or the likelihood of injury or damage, to persons or property, and the time requirements for notice provided for above would be impractical and increase the likelihood of such injury or damage, such required notice may be dispensed with and the secretary shall notify each member of the board by the best means possible under the circumstances.

Public testimony on agenda items, or on other relevant items which any person may wish to call to the attention of the board, may be taken by the appropriate standing committee or by the committee of the whole. The chair of each committee shall have the discretion to limit the time and order of appearances as deemed desirable for a fair presentation of views consistent with the other business before the committee. In an unusual case, this subsection may be waived by the president of the board or by any other six members of the board.

repeal of rule. Persons having an interest in the
