The board shall select its own chair. 4. The terms of the members of the board are as follows: (a) The members of the board shall be appointed for three-year terms; however, to ensure that no more than three members’ regular terms expire at once, the board of governors or the supreme court may, in its discretion, appoint or re-appoint a member to a term of less than three years. No member may serve on the board for more than a lifetime total of nine years. The time served in filling a partial term created by a vacancy or appointment shall not be included in computing the nine-year lifetime limit.
