        D.   Announcement of Anonymous Gift

        President Singletary indicated his pleasure in having Governor
Collins present for the announcement of perhaps the largest
individual, one installment, gift in the University's history: a $5
million anonymous gift in support of the program in the Equine
Research Center. He added that the magnificent gift would help the
University reach its goal for the Center by providing the margin of
excellence needed in the Center's future programming.

        President Singletary explained that a condition of the gift
was that the donor remain anonymous. However, he said he did want to
publicly acknowledge the enthusiastic support and assistance of
Governor Collins. The Governor was present when the initial proposal
was presented and when the gift was received. Therefore, he said he
thought it most appropriate to invite her to be present for the
announcement and to give the members of the Board an opportunity to
join him in expressing thanks and appreciation for her active support
in bringing to the University one of if not the finest gift of its
kind.

        Following a round of applause, the Governor thanked President
Singletary and expressed her appreciation for the team effort involved
in bringing this gift to fruition. She said the gift was a tribute to
both the University of Kentucky and to the State of Kentucky. She
added that the gift puts "Kentucky in the forefront again when it
comes to the horse industry." She concluded her remarks by saying
that she was proud to have been a part of this effort and that she
looked forward to future involvement with this project. Governor
Collins was given another round of applause.

        President Singletary also expressed his appreciation and
thanks to Mr. James E. Bassett III, President of Keeneland
Association, for his tireless efforts and to Mr. Robert Clay, son of
Board member Albert Clay, for his assistance in the initial stages of
making arrangements.   He pointed out that several members of the
Equine Research Foundation were helpful and that Mr. Robert Babbage
made the local arrangements.

        President Singletary explained that the Governor interrupted a
very busy schedule to be present for the announcement but that she
could not stay for the remainder of the meeting because of her
calendar. He again expressed his thanks and appreciation for her
taking the time to be here on this important occasion. Governor
Collins thanked President Singletary, following which she was given
another round of applause.

        E.    Minutes Approved

        On motion made by Mr. Black, seconded by Professor Kemp and
passed, the Minutes of the dune 24, 1985 Meeting of the Board of
Trustees of the University of Kentucky were approved as written.

the second annual Free For All. Mr. Cain explained that the event,
designed to raise scholarship money for the Academic Excellence Fund,
was sponsored by the Student Activities Board, the Student Government
Association and Collegians for Academic Excellence. An estimated
4,000 students attended the event which, Mr. Cain pointed out, is a
good indication of the concern students now have about academic
excellence. He reported that local merchants donated money and
merchandise, and that approximately $4,500 was raised for academic
scholarships.

        I.   Council on Higher Education Strategic Plan Update

        President Singletary reviewed the status of the Council on
Higher Education Strategic Plan during which he pointed out that it is
not really a plan but an option and that nothing has been finally
resolved. Mr. McCowan commended President Singletary and his staff
for the time and effort devoted in the preparation and success of the
Alumni Rallies.

        Mr. McCowan informed the Board that a non-profit corporation
to promote higher education has been formed. The board of directors
will consist of representatives from each institution and other
reputable citizens from across the Commonwealth. The primary
objective is to promote the importance of and support for higher
education.

        J.    President's Report to the Trustees (PR 1)

        President Singletary reviewed briefly some of the items in his

the national average. Lexington Campus enrollment is 20,900 and the
Community College System enrollment is 23,700.




 




                                -5-

       President Singletary also reported that the Institute for

continuation of a successful research and education program. In
addition, he reported that a $58,672 grant from the Kentucky
Department of Mines and Minerals for mine safety has just been
announced.

        President Singletary also reported that the University has
been authorized to announce that the U. S. Department of Energy has
funded the $1.8 million program mentioned last summer--the Consortium
for Fossil Fuel Liquefaction Science. The consortium will be headed
by the University of Kentucky and includes the Kentucky Energy Cabinet
and four out-of-state universities: Utah, Pittsburgh, West Virginia
and Syracuse. The award calls for the consortium to continue
integrated development of coal liquefaction techniques.

        President Singletary then announced that the Kentucky State
Racing Commission has approved a $1.1 million grant to the University
for equine drug research. Mr. Hershey, who is a member of the Racing
Commission, commended Doctors Thomas Tobin and Jerry Blake on their
proposal and said the Commission was pleased to award the grant for
this important research. President Singletary thanked Mr. Hershey for
his help and support.

        President Singletary reported that Mr. Floyd Wright, a former
Trustee and friend of the University, left most of his estate in trust
to the Medical Center. Two-thirds will go to the Department of
Surgery and the other one-third will go for other uses in the Medical
Center, as approved by the President and the Board, upon the
recommendation of Chancellor Bosomworth.

        President Singletary then announced that beginning today and
at future full Board meetings an overview of one topic will be
presented in order to give the Trustees a better understanding of the
University. The Five Year Plan and Biennial Budget Request will be
presented today, and another topic will be covered at the December
meeting.

        K.    Personnel Actions  (PR 2)

        In recommending that the appointments and staff changes in PR
2 be approved, President Singletary called attention to two items:
(1) the appointment of a new Dean of the College of Home Economics
and (2) the temporary appointment of Dr. Donald B. Clapp as Executive
Vice Chancellor for Administration in the Medical Center. He
indicated his pleasure in having Dr. Clapp, former Vice President for
Administration, return to the University. Mr. Farmer commended
President Singletary and Chancellor Bosomworth on the appointment.
With President Singletary so recommending, on motion made by Mr.
Brereton Jones, seconded by Mr. Black and carried, the personnel
actions in PR 2 were approved.

        Chancellor Gallaher, at the request of President Singletary,
introduced Professor Peggy S. Meszaros, newly appointed Dean, College

       L.    Acceptance of Gift from Anonymous Donor  (PR 3A)

       President Singletary indicated his pleasure in recommending
that the Board formally accept the $5 million gift. On motion made by
Mr. Larry Jones, seconded by Mr. Clay and unanimously carried, the
Board of Trustees accepted the gift of $5 million from an anonymous
donor. (See PR 3A at the end of the Minutes.)

        M.    1985-86 Budget Revisions  (PR 3B)

        Mr. Black moved approval of the 1985-86 budget revisions as
recommended in PR 3B. His motion was seconded by Professor Kemp and
carried. As an information item, President Singletary added that with
the removal of the three percent cap on salaries by the Legislature
during the Special Session, the University is reallocating funds and
plans to adjust faculty/staff salaries for 1985-86. He explained that
the adjustments would not be across the board adjustments but would be
based on merit. Professor Wilson pointed out that low salaries are a
demoralizing factor for the faculty and that it is important for this
to be a high priority of this institution. President Singletary
emphasized that both in the current Operating Budget and the Biennial
Budget Request faculty salaries have been a No. 1 priority of this
institution but added that this could not be accomplished through an
adjustment in the present Operating Budget. (See PR 3B at the end of
the Minutes.)

dissent. (See PR 3D at the end of the Minutes.)
