Following call of the roll, the Secretary reported a quorum present and Mr. Sturgill declared the meeting officially open for the conduct of business at 2:03 p.m. B. Minutes Approved There being no additions or corrections, on motion duly made, seconded and carried, the Minutes of the September 16, 1975. meeting of the Board of Trustees were approved as published without formal reading. C. President's Report to the Trustees (PR 1) President Singletary said he would not discuss the items in his monthly report because of a rather long agenda and suggested the members read it later. He recommended that the report be received and filed. Without objection it was so ordered. -2- D. Recommendations of the President (PR 2) and Supplemental Recommendations of the President (PR 3) Since both PR 2 and PR 3 were routine recommendations relative to personnel changes, President Singletary suggested that they both be acted upon simultaneously. Mr. Sturgill asked if there were any questions and, there being none, on motion by Mr. Crockett, seconded by Mr. Black, and passed without dissent, PR 2 and PR 3 were approved as a whole and ordered made official parts of the Minutes of the meeting. (See PR 2 and PR 3 at the end of the Minutes.) E. Budget Revisions for 1975-76 (PR 4) President Singletary recommended approval of PR 4 which relates to routine revisions in the current operating budget. Mr. Sturgill called for a motion and Mr. Homer Ramsey moved that the revisions in the 1975-76 Budget as contained in PR 4 be authorized and approved. His motion was seconded by Mr. Palmer. The aye votes carried and it was so ordered. (See PR 4 at the end of the Minutes.) F. Associate Degree Program in Physical Therapy (PR 5) Explaining that the proposed new program in Physical Therapy requires certification of its candidates and thus must have approval from the Board of Trustees and the Council on Public Higher Education before activation, President Singletary recommended such approval by the Board of Trustees. He added that the need for properly trained Physical Therapy assistants was great both in Jefferson County and throughout the state and that the initiation of the program would be funded through a federal grant. There being no questions, on motion by Mr. Frank Ramsey, seconded by Mr. James Harralson, and passed without dissent, approval was given for the activation of a new program leading to the degree of Associate in Applied Science in Physical Therapy. (See PR 5 at the end of the Minutes.) G. Biennial Budget Request for 1976-78 (PR 6) President Singletary opened his presentation of the biennial budget request for 1976-78 by saying that after hearing his comments he hoped that the Board would approve the request so that it might be forwarded to the Council on Public Higher Education, the Governor, and the Executive Depart- ment of Finance and Administration, and eventually the legislature. -3- The process of preparing the request began about six months ago with the receipt by the vice presidents of the requests from the various colleges and departments on campus. Each vice president made cuts amounting to approximately 60%o and the requests were then submitted to the Cabinet where additional cutting was done. The final "surgery" was done by the President and the document represents the end result of the process. The budget document consists of three separate parts: 1. A recurring supplemental request for $1, 691, 400 to be made available for the current fiscal year. In 1974-75 the University of Kentucky received supplemental state appropriations which are included in the 1975- 76 budget on a recurring basis but are currently not funded. 2. Proposals for capital construction projects amountint to $46, 500, 000. The list of projects represents only about one-half of the number of requests received but does represent those projects felt to be most urgent. 3. The operating budget for the University for the biennium amounting to $191,387,800 for 1976-77 and $211,104,400 for 1977-78. President Singletary emphasized that these figures were for the total budget and that state appropriations came to just under one-half of the total, the remainder coming from other sources, such as federal grants, endowment income, tuition and fees, sales and services, hospital and other auxiliary enter- prises. The increase requested from state appropriations for the biennium amount to $11,912,300 and $12,705,000 for 1976-77 and 1977-78, respectively. The operating budget is broken down into three parts as follows: 1. Continuation, which includes fixed costs and cost of living increases. Salaries are naturally the largest portion of the budget and the proposed request includes a 10%Q average increase in salaries for each of the two years. 2. Other Program Requirements, which include fund replacement and program enrichment and expansion. 3. New Programs, which have been authorized but not funded. These programs include Master of Public Administration, Technical and Occupational Programs, and a Doctorate in Criminal Justice. President Singletary showed a chart which graphically illustrated the erosion which has occurred during the past eight years in University programs. The chart indicated that the University has received increases in funds amounting to 102%6; however, inflation and fixed costs have absorbed the major portion of the 102%6 increase, leaving only 14. 3% available for an increase of 82% in the student body and for program expansion and enrichment and improvement cipresent program -4- The budget request for 1976-78 would merely arrest the erosion. If the request is cut, it may be necessary to consider the question of how many students the University can accommodate and do the job of providing the quality of education which the institution should and must provide. In concluding, President Singletary introduced members of the Budget Office - Mr. Edward Carter, Miss Karen Tuttle, and Mr. Gary Knapp - and expressed his appreciation for the long hours they had put in in the preparation of the budget document. The Board members recognized their contributions with a round of applause. Mr. Sturgill thanked President Singletary for his budget presentation and asked if there were any questions. There being none, Mr. Sutherland moved that the biennial budget request for 1976-78 as submitted, including capital construction projects shown on page 76 of the document, be approved and ordered forwarded to the Council on Public Higher Education for review and recommendation to the Governor of the Commonwealth. Mr. Sutherland further moved that approval be given for supplemental requests to be prepared to support enrollment increases during the 1976-78 biennium. The request will be for approximately $1, 000, 000 each year of the biennium, but the exact amount will not be known until final calculations of FTE enrollment for the fall of 1975-76 are completed. His motion was seconded and without discussion passed with the aye votes carrying. There were no nay votes. (See PR 6 at the end of the Minutes.) H. Interim Financial Report (FCR 1) Mr. Sturgill called on Mr. Griffin to present the Finance Committee reports. Mr. Griffin indicated that the Finance Committee had rmet to consider the various matters to be presented and recommended that the Interim Financial Report for the period ending August 31, 1975 be accepted. Mr. Black so moved. His motion was seconded by Mr. Homer Ramsey and passed without dissent. (See FCR 1 at the end of the Minutes. ) I. Acceptance of the University of Kentucky Financial Reports (FCR 2) Mr. Griffin asked Mr. Blanton to discuss the management letter submitted by Coopers and Lybrand which was a part of FCR 2. Mr. Blanton said that the auditors had found the records in good order and had been able to conduct their audit without any problems. They did, however, point out four areas where improvement might be made in the new fiscal year. After discussing these areas briefly, Mr. Blanton indicated that his staff is fully aware of the need for improvement and is working on it. -5- Upon completion of Mr. Blanton's remarks, Mr. Sturgill called for a motion and Mr. Griffin moved that the Board of Trustees accept the University of Kentucky Financial Reports, University of Kentucky Housing and Dining System Report, and the Report on Internal Accounting Controls for the year ending June 30, 1975. His motion was seconded by Mr. Crockett and passed without dissent. (See FCR 2 at the end of the Minutes.) J. Acceptance of Audits for Affiliated Corporations (FCR 3) Mr. Griffin moved that the Board of Trustees accept the audited financial statement of the Fund for the Advancement of Education and Research in the University of Kentucky Medical Center, the University of Kentucky Research Foundation, the University of Kentucky Athletic Association, Health Care Collection Service, Inc., and University of Kentucky Credit Union for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1975. His motion was seconded by Mr. Sutherland and passed. (See FCR 3 at the end of the Minutes.) K. Authorization for Renovation Cost (FCR 4) At the request of Mr. Griffin, Mr. Ruschell explained that the University of Kentucky Housing Bonds of 1960 issue provides for the establishment of a Maintenance Fund which may be drawn upon under certain circumstances and used for the purpose of renovating project facilities. It is necessary for the Trustee of this bond issue to have authorization from the Board of Trustees of the University in order to make available money from the Maintenance Fund. Mr. Griffin moved that the Vice President for Business Affairs and Treasurer be authorized and directed by the Board-of Trustees to request the Trustee of the University of Kentucky Housing Bonds of 1960 to make available the sum of $3, 000 from the Maintenance Fund of said bonds for the purpose of paying the cost of renovating the Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity house at 700 Woodland Avenue. His motion was seconded by Mr. Harralson and passed without dissent. (See FCR 4 at the end of the Minutes. ) L. Resolution Authorizing Signing of Checks, Drafts, and Orders (FCR 5) Mr. Griffin explained that the resolution authorizing officers to sign checks, drafts, and orders was required because of changes in personnel and moved that the resolution in FCR 5 be approved. His motion was seconded by Mr. Kessinger and passed without comment or discussion. (See FCR 5 at the end of the Minutes. ) -6- M. Meeting Adjourned After determining that there was no further business to come before the meeting, Mr. Sturgill called for a motion for adjournment. The motion being duly made, seconded, and carried, the meeting adjourned at 3:00 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Paul G. Sears Secretary, Board of Trustees (PRs 2, 3, 4, 5, & 6 and FCRs 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 which follow are official parts of the Minutes of the meeting. ) Office of the President October 7, 1975 - ~PR 2 Members, Board of Trustees: RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE PRESIDENT I.
