The Arizona Board of Regents has called a special meeting today where the board may take action on the University of Arizona's medical schools.
The agenda for this afternoon's meeting doesn't reveal exactly what action the state's public university oversight board might take. The board will discuss problems at the medical schools in closed session, receive legal advice and might take action.
The meeting comes after months of controversy surrounding the university's two colleges of medicine.
UA president Ann Weaver Hart earlier this week called for an outside investigation into the use of public funds at the university's Phoenix and Tucson medical schools. That came after Regents President Eileen Klein said she's received information questioning spending and the accuracy of public records at the schools.
