Bratt has served the University and its faculty and students in many
arenas during her 18 years on this campus and read the following
resolution on her behalf:

      Carolyn joined the University of Kentucky College of Law faculty in
      1975. From 1984 to 1989, she was the Alumni Professor of Law and
      in 1989 was appointed as the W. L. Matthews Professor of Law. She
      has been recognized since early in her career as a skilled and
      dedicated teacher. She received the College of Law Outstanding
      Teacher awards in 1977 and 1979, the UK Alumni Association Great
      Teacher Award in 1985, the Faculty Advisor Excellence Award of the
      UK Student Organizations Assembly in 1989, and the Duncan Award for
      Excellence in Teaching from the UK College of Law in 1990. She is
      recognized by her peers locally and nationally as a leader in her
      profession serving as Special Justice to the Kentucky Supreme Court
      and receiving the Cassis Award for Excellence in Legal Research and
      Scholarship from the UK College of Law in 1989. She has also
      received numerous awards for her public service from local, state,
      and national groups to which she has willingly given her time,
      energy and incisive intellect.

      Some of Carolyn's greatest contributions, however, have been to her
      faculty colleagues at the University of Kentucky. She has served
      us faithfully, with forthrightness, integrity, and with deep caring
      and concern for our University in the highest areas of elective and
      appointed responsibility for a faculty member. She has served as
      the Chair of the University Senate Ad Hoc Committee on the Status
      of Women and co-authored its landmark report.. She was a faculty
      representative to the 1990 Presidential Search Committee, and has
      served as an elected member of the University Faculty Senate, the
      Senate Council and, from 1990-91, as Chair of the University Senate
      Council. In 1990 she was elected faculty representative to the
      University of Kentucky Board of Trustees. With this meeting, she
      concludes her term as a Board member.

      During the past year Carolyn has been the recipient of an American
      Council of Education (ACE) Fellowship, designed to introduce
      faculty to academic administration. I am certain that as Carolyn
      makes the transition into academic administration she will take
      with her an understanding and appreciation for the concerns and
      hopes of faculty and students whom she has served so tirelessly and
      sometimes at great personal cost. The faculty of the University of
      Kentucky are grateful to this outstanding woman for her service to
      us, and for myself and on their behalf, I would like to thank her
      for her work. I hope that my fellow members of this Board will
      join me in recognizing her service.

      Governor Breathitt thanked Dr. Powell and asked for a motion to
adopt the Resolution. Mr. Sturgill moved approval. Mrs. Plattner
seconded the motion and it was unanimously adopted. Governor Breathitt
asked Dr. Powell to deliver a copy of the Resolution to Professor Bratt,
the retiring Dean and the new Dean of the College of Law.

system and that Mr. Dowdy would be a good representative for the students.

       Mr. Wilcoxson expressed appreciation to Mr. November and Mr. Rose.

Board of Trustees, the Hospital Board, and the Finance Committee,
especially his guidance and advice in matters dealing with coal issues and
matters that impact Robinson Forest. He noted that the University would
continue to seek Mr. Rose's advice even though he will not be a member of
the Board. On behalf of the University, President Wethington thanked Mr.
Rose for all that he had contributed to the University.

       President Wethington said that Mr. November had been an excellent
Student Government Association President and a mature, thoughtful,
considerate member of the Board. He said that Mr. November looked at the
broad issues and concerns of the University and understood the business of
the University well. President Wethington thanked him for the fine
leadership that he had provided to the Student Government Association.

       President Wethington said that Dr. Powell had "said it very well"
in regard to Professor Bratt. He said that the Resolution of thanks and
appreciation would be spread on the Minutes and appreciation would be
expressed to Professor Bratt for her service on the Board.

       FF.   Operating Budget for 1993-94 (FCR 8)

       In opening his presentation, President Wethington said that it had
been a difficult budget to put together. He noted that it represented a
lot of work by a lot of people in the University; faculty, staff and
others. He said that the development of the budget was significantly
influenced by continuing downward revisions in the state appropriations to
the University. He reported that the administration reexamined
priorities, took a critical look at operations during 1992-93, reviewed
the administrative structure, staffing patterns, and workload, and
developed a University System faculty workload policy which the University
had not had before. He reminded the Board of the comprehensive review of
the University Strategic Plan which was brought to the Board for approval
earlier in the year and reported that each of the major thrusts outlined
in the Plan had been addressed in the 1992-93 Operating Budget.

       Through a series of slides, President Wethington reviewed and
elaborated on a summary of state budget reductions, tuition revenue
increases, available resources, expenditures for program support, use of
$1.3M special state appropriation, fixed costs, salaries/operating
expenses, employee benefits, priorities for the University, program
improvement, expenditures for program support, other income, capital
budget, and the operating budget by category of expenditures.

       In summary, President Wethington said that, in his opinion, it was
a good operating budget given the constraints within which the staff had
to work. He noted that the members of the Board and media had been given
an opportunity to ask questions and get informed about the budget. He
said that it was essential that the Board approve the budget in order for
the University to operate beginning July 1, 1993. He recommended approval
of FCR 8.

       On behalf of the Finance Committee, Mr. Hardymon moved that the
budget as recommended be adopted and that the chairperson of the Board be
authorized to execute contracts with the administrative officers providing
for the terms and conditions of their employment.

       Professor Sistarenik said that he had no problem with the overall
budget given the restrictions and limitations that President Wethington
had mentioned in his presentation. However, he said that he had serious
reservations about one portion of the budget dealing with the substantial
raises to deans of academic affairs and deans of business affairs in the
Community College System. He noted that this was a worthy attempt to
bring them closer to their benchmark median and the raises may be well
deserved, but that he questioned these salary increases in times of fiscal
austerity.

       Mr. Sturgill seconded Mr. Hardymon's motion and it passed.
Professor Sistarenik voted no. (See FCR 8 at the end of the Minutes.)

       GG.   Amendment of University Code of Student Conduct (SCCR 1)

       Dr. Deborah Powell, presiding for Professor Bratt, Chairperson of
the Student Code Committee, recommended and moved that the Board approve
the proposed revisions of the University Code of Student Conduct and that
the Board affirm that the University should not discriminate against any
student, faculty or staff member because of sexual orientation. Her
motion, which was seconded by Mr. Jackson, carried. (See SCCR 1 at the
end of the Minutes.)

       Governor Breathitt expressed appreciation to President Wethington
and his staff for keeping the Board fully apprised throughout the whole
budget process. He asked that everyone exercise their influence as
individuals and as citizens in support of higher education. He said that
this is a major responsibility of every citizen of the Commonwealth and
the citizens must do everything they can for higher education. He
reminded the Board that the University of Kentucky is a land grant public
institution established to serve all the public.   It is the flagship
institution and citizens must fight for the University.

       HH.   Meeting Adjourned

       There being no further business to come before the Board, the
Chairperson adjourned the meeting at 2:34 p.m.

                                        Respectfully submitted,
