D is the way to go. Polestar's relationship to Polaris is like a parent-child, not a partnership. And Dr. Porter sounds like the perfect 'outside' voice to keep things in check.

Yes, I agree. Dr. Porter, as a university president, would be considered an outside director on the board.

I think D is the correct choice. Polestar is like a holding company for Polaris.

I'm going with D too. Holding company and outside director - that's a no-brainer. Though I wonder if Dr. Porter ever gets confused for Polestar's mascot, the Polaris star?
