The System Council of Chief Business Officers (SCOBO), established in 2006, is composed of the six chief business officers of the state universities, four chief business officers selected by the nineteen community colleges, one chief business officer selected by the technical colleges, and the chief business officer of Washburn University.

SCOBO formulates recommendations relating to the implementation of the Higher Education Coordination Act as they apply to business affairs.  SCOBO meets monthly.
