   3. Building and Grounds Committee

      Mr. Adams, chair, reported on the Building and Grounds Committee meeting of May 18, 2007.

      • Review Draft 2009-2014 Capital Plan

        Ms. Vicky Davidson, associate vice president, Facilities Planning and Management, presented an update on the development of the 2009-2014 capital plan to be submitted to the state of Ohio in the fall. With a focus on increasing retention and enrollment, capital projects identified for possible consideration are as follows: upgrades to student services areas such as Admissions and Financial Aid; Student Academic Success Center; and student common areas and classrooms.

        It is important to note that the university's most recent Campus Master Plan was completed in 1995 and all phases of the project are complete except for the area bordering the Creative Arts Center and the Dunbar Library. During the next year, a process to prepare for the university's next Campus Master Plan will be defined. It is believed that an updated campus plan can be used to better identify areas of future growth, including identification of land use opportunities for construction of research buildings, academic buildings, performance revenues, parking lots or garages, housing, and athletics.

        Discussion will continue among various groups of the campus community while the 2009-2014 capital plan is being finalized. A special committee meeting will be held in August, prior to the final review of the plan at the September Board meeting.

Additionally, the College of Education and Human Services and the Wright State University-Lake Campus lease space, predominantly at area high schools, to provide off-site classroom work and professional development for teachers. Among the more unique agreements for leased space include the convenience store and service center for the AM properties, and the Southwest Ohio Regional Depository (SWORD) at Miami University.

           WHEREAS, United States Treasury Regulations prescribe conditions under which proceeds of bonds, notes, or other obligations used to reimburse advances made for certain expenditures paid before the issuance of such obligations, will be deemed to be expended (or properly allocated to expenditures) for purposes of Sections 103 and 141-150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, so that upon such reimbursement the proceeds so used will not further be subject to requirements or restrictions under those sections of the Internal Revenue Code; and

"Reimbursement" or "reimburse" generally does not include the refunding or retiring of Bonds previously issued and sold to, or borrowings from, unrelated entities.

           "Reimbursement Bonds" means Bonds the proceeds of which are to be used for reimbursement of such capital or other qualifying expenditures paid before issuance of the Bonds.

        Spring quarter enrollments were only a fraction of a percent below last spring, thus narrowing the gap significantly compared to winter quarter. Despite the lower than expected enrollments, tuition revenues exceed estimates, as do state appropriations and investment income. We expect to meet the Board's goal of achieving an operating margin again this year, thereby increasing the pool of funds available for investments.

        We are addressing parking concerns by constructing a new lot near the Student Union and Russ Engineering and by improving the shuttle service from Lot 20. These changes should be in place at the beginning of fall quarter.

        The General Assembly has enacted House Bill 2, which deals with the Ohio Board of Regents. The Board will become an advisory board, with terms reduced to six years. The Chancellor assumes the powers previously given to the Board. The Chancellor will have a five year term.

   5. Student Affairs Committee

      Mrs. Langdon reported on the committee meeting of May 18, 2007.

      • Vice-President's Report

        Ms. Kathy Morris, associate vice president, gave several updates:

        The women's softball team won the Horizon League championship and is now headed to the NCAA tournament.

        The student organizations held a very successful May Daze program on May 4 with wonderful weather and a great turnout. May is a month of many recognition events for both student organizations and student leaders. Omicron Delta Kappa, Wright State University's leadership honorary, held its third annual Leader 2 Leader program with over 100 students attending. It was such a well-planned and executed event that it will be included in the facilitator's promotional video.

        It has been an exceptional year for Student Government under the leadership of Mr. Brad Turner and Mr. Ed Gemin. The leadership is in the process of transition with the election of Mr. T.J. Hufford and Ms. Paulina Zoltowski as the 2007-08 president and vice president, respectively.

      • Student Government Report

        Mr. Turner and Mr. Gemin disseminated a list of Student Government accomplishments for 2006-07 emphasizing their five top achievements:

        (1) the creation of a president's task force on sustainability, (2) the Magic Bus program which has been very successful and had over 1,000 riders this year, (3) confronting the parking issue by working with the Faculty Senate and campus committees to improve parking availability, (4) increasing athletics support (using electronic signs and flyers to promote athletic events, organizing the Magic Bus schedule around game times, and creating a student section called the Raider Den in the Nutter Center), and (5) developing a comprehensive strategy for making and rewarding progress. PROGRESS was a program established to create transparency and accountability within Student Government.

        Mr. Turner introduced the new president and vice president elect of Student Government Mr. T.J. Hufford and Ms. Paulina Zoltowski disseminated a brief copy of their background and plans and priorities for the 2007-08 academic year.

        1. Recognition of Brad Turner and Ed Gemin

           RESOLUTION 07-54

           Whereas Brad Turner and Ed Gemin were selected by the Wright State Student Body to serve as their duly elected president and vice president for the 2006-07 academic year; and

           Whereas, Brad Turner and Ed Gemin have demonstrated exemplary leadership skills in their roles in Student Government; and

           Whereas, Brad Turner and Ed Gemin have served with distinction as advocates of the Wright State Student Body; therefore

           Be it resolved, that the Wright State University Board of Trustees recognizes the achievements and contributions of Brad Turner and Ed Gemin.

           Mr. Soin moved for approval. Mr. Adams seconded, and the resolution was unanimously approved.

      • Faculty Representative Update

        There was no official Faculty Senate Update. However, Mr. Gemin, student government representative on the Faculty Senate Student Affairs Committee, reported that Student Government declined to pass a resolution to include pluses and minuses in the grading system.

      • Updates

        Dr. Joanne Risacher, assistant professor of Educational Leadership, and Dr. Charles Ryan, professor of Educational Leadership, gave an update on the Student Affairs in Higher Education masters' degree program. They outlined the many ways in which Student Affairs and Academic Affairs successfully collaborate to enrich the program. The program started in 1983, but had minimal growth prior to 2001 when a decision was made to close the program. However, when Student Affairs and Academic Affairs collaborated in 2000-2001, student enrollment began to grow. From 2002–2006, the program increased from 16 to 42 students with a higher than average number of males and persons of color enrolled.

        Collaboration has included a centralized application process, conference registration and other financial assistance from Student Affairs, as well as cost-sharing of a half-time faculty appointment and support of tuition waivers for GA positions. It has proved to be a win-win collaboration for both Student Affairs (well-trained graduate students to fill positions and provide support, opportunities for professional staff to enhance credentials) and Academic Affairs (steady and significant program growth, graduates successfully competing in the job market).

        The program also has collaborative relationships through participation in the Southwestern Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE). SOCHE's participation enhances student opportunities for internship and practicum placement and no-cost attendance at conferences. These collaborative efforts have resulted in significant program growth and have benefited both the students and professional staff.

        Mr. Bill Shepard, assistant vice president for Student Affairs, gave an update on development initiatives within the division. Mr. Shepard transitioned from executive director of the Student Union to assistant vice president in March 2007 with an emphasis on development specifically for Student Affairs. He shared the divisional funding priorities (facilities, programs, and scholarships), highlighting the scholarship aspect.

        Student Legal Services has endowed a fund that currently has $90,000 with $10,000 in scholarships to be awarded on June 1. Residence Services has a new endowment fund created from $16,000 raised by student organizations and will be awarding two $500 scholarships this quarter. The Office of the Student Union, Event Services, and Campus Recreation has a long-standing scholarship program for its student employees with an extensive amount of the money raised by students. They have awarded $187,000 to 197 recipients since the program's inception. They will award $25,000 more at their annual banquet on May 20th. Disability Services has just developed a new recognition program for scholarship recipients and will be awarding almost $20,000 to 12 students.
