REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD

Appreciation to UW-Milwaukee

Regent President Lyon stated the Board's appreciation for the

opportunity to meet at UW-Milwaukee. He thanked Chancellor Schroeder and the

staff of UW-Milwaukee for making the Board's visit so interesting and

enjoyable.

Resolution of Appreciation: Regent Clusen

Resolution 6096 was presented by Regent Schilling and adopted by

acclamation.

Resolution 6096: Whereas, Ruth Clusen is completing nine years of

distinguished service as a member of the Board of

Regents of the University of Wisconsin System; and

Whereas, during her tenure on the Board, she has made

substantial contributions to a broad range of policy

issues and has held a number of leadership positions,

including Chair and Vice Chair of the Education

Committee, Chair of Special Regent Committees on

appointment of chancellors, and Chair of the

Educational Communications Board and the Council for

Public Broadcasting; and

Whereas, her selection in 1985 as a member of the

prestigious National Commission on the Future of State

Colleges and Universities demonstrates the esteem

accorded her in the higher education community; and

Whereas, throughout her years on the Board, she has

maintained a steadfast commitment to educational

excellence; an abiding interest in concerns of

academic staff and support for their effective

involvement in institutional governance; and a firm

commitment to equal opportunity for women throughout

the UW System;

Therefore, be it resolved that the Board of Regents of

the University of Wisconsin System, hereby commends

our colleague Ruth Clusen for the exemplary service

she has rendered to the people of Wisconsin as a

member of this Board; and

Be it further resolved that, with great appreciation

for the wise counsel she has provided, for the

countless hours and great effort she has devoted, and

for her unstinting support of the University of

Wisconsin System, the Board of Regents grants to Ruth

Clusen, upon her retirement from the Board, the status

and title of Regent Emeritus.

Regent President Lyon presented a plaque to Regent Clusen in recognition

of her distinguished service.

Stating that her time on the Board had been a great pleasure, Regent

Clusen recalled that some of the issues before the Board when she began her

term were still being discussed. These included faculty and staff

compensation, collective bargaining, financial disclosure for faculty and

staff, recruitment/retention of women faculty, staff and students, and issues

involving academic staff.

At that time, Katharine Lyall had been with the UW only about a year,

but everyone already knew that she was destined for exceptional

accomplishment. Then, there were four women Regents--now there are two.

Then, there was one woman Chancellor--now there are four.

In many ways, she recalled, this was a less integrated System nine years

ago. When President Shaw was appointed, he was told that the Board wanted a

real System, not a loose federation. This had been accomplished. Nine years

ago, the large size of the System and growing enrollments were points of

pride. Now enrollments are being reduced. In those nine years the UW Centers

had succeeded in firmly establishing their own mission, and the UW-Extension

function was successfully integrated under the leadership of Chancellor Boyle.

Over the years, she continued, the student body has become more diverse,

although much remains to be accomplished in that regard. Planning the Future has

moved the UW forward, and work along those lines should be continued.

Among her greatest satisfactions, Regent Clusen said, was to have

participated in choosing leaders for UW institutions and the System. Every

chancellorship had changed in her time on the Board, and there had been two

presidential searches.

Turning to current issues, Regent Clusen cited the national dialogue

about regionalization versus specialization and urged the Board to bear in

mind that the regional campuses were established for accessibility--to bring

quality education to all parts of the state. While sacrifices will have to be

made because of limited resources, she urged caution about what is done with

respect to those campuses.

While compensation is still a problem, she was convinced that the

Governor's Compensation Commission will greatly assist in resolving that

issue. Questions relating to the level of tuition and fees also remain

unsettled. With regard to the status of women in the UW System, she commented

that women still are underrepresented on the Board of Regents and among senior

faculty across the System. In general, she felt women are underpaid,

underpromoted and undertenured. She urged the Board to continue efforts in

that area, as well as efforts toward greater cultural diversity.

The Board members she most admired over the years, Regent Clusen

observed, have been people of independent mind who were unprejudiced and had

intellectual curiosity. In conclusion, she thanked the Board, the faculty,

the staff and the chancellors for the opportunities given to her and

for their hospitality. She also thanked the Regents and all others for their

kindness since her accident. Most importantly, she said, all the time and

effort of being a member of the Board is worthwhile, because it is done for

the students--the future human resources of the state.

Resolution 6097 was presented by Regent Gelatt and adopted by

acclamation.

Resolution of Appreciation: Regent Vattendahl

Resolution 6097: Whereas, Joel Vattendahl is completing a seven-year

term of meritorious service as a member of the Board

of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System; and

Whereas, he brought to the Board a valuable

perspective based on his distinguished career in labor

union leadership and public service; and

Whereas, as a member and Vice Chair of the Business

and Finance Committee, he made significant

contributions to budget deliberations and other key

issues involving financial support for the UW System;

and

Whereas, he also rendered valuable service as a member

of Special Regent Committees for selection of

Chancellors and as a member of the Council of Trustees

of the UW Hospital and Clinics; and

Whereas, throughout the years, he has enlivened and

enriched Regent discussions with his perceptive and

cogent observations, always well-stated, to the point,

and often laced with insightful humor. For example,

in his plain-spoken manner, he once summed up the

Board's view, after a lengthy discussion, in this

short sentence: "We really are in support of this

project, we just don't want to say so." On another

occasion, he minced no words in characterizing the

suggestion for further review of an already well-

studied proposal as "nothing more than an exercise in

exercise -- and everyone knows I'm against exercise";

Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Board of

Regents of the University of Wisconsin System hereby

commends our colleague Joel Vattendahl for the

substantial contributions he has made to public higher

education in Wisconsin; and

Be it further resolved that, with great appreciation

for the loyal service he has rendered, the Board of

Regents grants to him, upon his retirement from the

Board, the status and title of Regent Emeritus.

President Lyon presented a plaque to Regent Vattendahl in recognition of

his distinguished service.

Regent Vattendahl began his remarks by recalling an incident several

years previously in which he had referred to reaction by patrons of a well-

known establishment in Cudahy as a means of adding perspective to a Board

discussion. Specifically, the discussion focused on the procedure for press

announcements of the newly-approved UW mission statements, whereupon, Regent

Fish opined that he did not think anyone really cared what process was used.

Regent Vattendahl responded that the folks at Pinter's Tap have scarcely

spoken of anything else.

Turning to current issues, he noted the need for competitiveness in a

global economy and the resulting focus on schools of business. He hoped these

schools would not advocate the strict top-down management that still is

prevalent in the United States, because this outmoded form of management will

not succeed in the world market. He also hoped that schools of business will

not teach what was all too common in the 1980s--that corporate debt is good

because it forces managers to manage more efficiently, and that the real way

to manage efficiently is to victimize workers. He pointed out that $5- and

$6-per-hour workers cannot send their children to the university, nor can they

pay the taxes needed to support the university and other necessary government

programs. Stating that schools must teach that workers are important, he

noted that it was a corporate attorney turned president--Abraham Lincoln--who

said, "It is labor that has given rise to capital, and as such, is worthy of

greater consideration than capital."

The following resolution, presented by Regent Dreyfus was adopted by

acclamation.

Resolution of Appreciation: Neil Shively

Resolution 6098: Whereas, Neil Shively has had a long and distinguished

career in journalism, and on May 15, 1992 he will

retire as Madison Bureau Chief of the Milwaukee Sentinel

where he has worked for 25 years; and

Whereas, Neil is known as the dean of the Madison

press corps because of the experience and wisdom he

has gained from more than two decades of reporting on

Wisconsin state government and higher education

issues, keeping the public well-informed of key

issues; and

Whereas, those who have worked with Neil over the

years appreciate his professional dedication,

knowledge, perceptive reporting, professional manner,

and his warmth and good humor; and

Whereas, he continued to approach his profession with

great interest and enthusiasm, possessing savvy

political instincts, a journalist's unsatiable

curiosity, and an internal drive and stamina (even in

his waning years!); and

Whereas, despite his nose for news and investigative

style of reporting, he is regarded as a personable and

fair journalist who can charm the subjects of his

stories even as he reports on their idiosyncrasies,

crimes or misdemeanors; and

Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Board of

Regents and the University of Wisconsin System

Administration do hereby commend Neil Shively for a

career of outstanding journalistic achievement and for

his contribution to public higher education by

reporting on news and issues that are in the public

interest; and

Be it further resolved that the Board and UW System

Administration wish him happiness and fulfillment in

the years ahead.

Mr. Shively thanked the Regents for the resolution of commendation.

Report of the Higher Educational Aids Board

The Board was provided with a written report of the May 1, 1992, meeting

of the Higher Educational Aids Board.

Report of the Vice President of the State Board of Vocational, Technical

and Adult Education

A written report by the Vice President of the State Board of Vocational,

Technical and Adult Education was provided to the Board.

Report of Legislative Matters

A written report on legislative matters was provided to the Board by

Acting Vice President Ward.

Appointment of Regent Committee for Selection of Joyce Erdman Teaching

Excellence Awards

Regent President Lyon announced the appointment of a Regent Committee to

select recipients of the Joyce Erdman Teaching Excellence Awards. The

Committee members are Regents Krutsch (Chair), Clusen and Flores. The award

selections will be announced at the June Board meeting.

Statement By Regent President Lyon

Regent President Lyon expressed appreciation for the cooperation and

support he received during his two years as President of the Board.

This has not been an exciting time for higher education, he noted. The

struggle for very modest budget increases, a damaging LAB audit, inadequate

compensation gains, the departure of President Shaw, downsizing, extensive

reallocation, and the open records debate made the activity level high. At

times, however, he had concern about productivity under these conditions.

Turning to positive experiences, he cited first the presidential search,

which led to the engagement of a highly competent leader in President Lyall.

Second, with considerable effort on the part of Regents and others, the

undergraduate education study resulted in initiatives that will enhance the

quality of the nucleus of the System's mission. Third, the Governor's

Commission on Compensation offers a means of assistance in addressing one of

the UW's most difficult problems. Fourth, the UW-System has a well-drawn

capital improvement plan to respond to the needs and resources of these times,

and the WISTAR Program will enhance the basis in that area. The bottom line,

he remarked, is that through the collective efforts of many, the UW System is

better positioned than others around the country to maintain quality programs

in this time of fiscal constraint.

In his remaining time on the Board, he hoped to serve, as former

President Schilling has ably done, when experience with the history of an

issue might be useful. In conclusion, he thanked System Administration,

campus leadership and the Regents' staff for their assistance.

Administrative Rule Proposal: Sec. UWS 17.06(2), Wisconsin Administrative Code

Regent President Lyon reported on the May 7 public hearing on proposed

amendments on s. UWS 17.06, Wisconsin Administrative Code. Testimony was heard

from 17 persons, two others submitted written testimony, and two registered

without presenting testimony.

Resolution 6099 would forward the amendments for legislative review by

directing the secretary to notify the presiding officer of each House of the

Legislature that the rules are in final draft form and to cause a statement to

that effect to appear in the Wisconsin Administrative Register. Each presiding

officer would refer the rule to a standing committee for review. If there is no

legislative committee objection, the rules would be promulgated.

It was moved by Regent Schilling, and seconded by Regent Davis, that the

following resolution be adopted by the Board of Regents:

Resolution 6099: That the Secretary of the Board of Regents, pursuant

to s. 227.19, Wis. Stats., notify the presiding officer of

each house of the Legislature that proposed amendments

to Chapter UWS 17, Wis. Admin. Code, are in final draft

form and cause a statement to appear in the Wisconsin

Administrative Register that said proposed amendments have

been submitted to the presiding officer of each house

of the Legislature.

Regent Krutsch noted the admirable intent of supporters of the rule to

create a more hospitable environment for minorities and others to whom

epithets may be addressed. She was concerned, however, about language which

she felt might stray from constitutional limits by making the rule applicable

in some instances when there is not likely to be a breach of the peace.

Testimony at the public hearing, she noted, had shown that both supporters and

opponents did not have a clear understanding of what the rule would prohibit.

This lack of understanding, even by people who considered themselves

knowledgeable enough to testify, raised some questions, she felt, as to the

possible unintended effect of the rule on the average student.

Referring to concerns about the rule expressed in testimony by the ACLU,

Regent Krutsch urged the Board to hear more expert testimony by constitutional

scholars as to whether the rule is likely to withstand a challenge to its

constitutionality. She felt that UW-Madison Law School faculty who drafted

the rule were in the position of being advocates for the rule. Therefore, she

suggested that the Board obtain testimony from neutral outside experts before

making a decision on this issue.

Regent Schilling noted that the previous rule was struck down not only

because of the breadth of its language but also because of the way it was

administered. It was his understanding that Law School faculty and others

carefully examined that decision and formulated a proposed rule which they

believed would meet the standards applied by Judge Warren.

In reply to a question by Regent Schilling, Senior Counsel Hodulik said

a group of seven law professors, led by Professor Ted Finman, participated in

the redraft effort. The group included Dean Daniel Bernstine and Professors

James Jones, Linda Greene, and Gordon Baldwin. Professor Finman had testified

that in his judgment the proposed rule meets the standard set in the UW

Milwaukee Post case and is consistent with the "fighting words" doctrine.

Regent Schilling noted that it is the role of the ACLU to raise

questions about any limitation on speech and it probably would not be possible

to fashion a rule to which they would not object. Experts could be found, he

thought, to argue both for and against the constitutionality of the rule. His

position is that the Board has a responsibility to do everything possible to

create a hospitable environment for all students, whether or not that means

further litigation. Therefore, he urged the Board to adopt the rule.

Regent Hirsch expressed concern that a violent response would be

necessary in order to prosecute someone for violation of the rule. This, he

felt, would encourage a person subjected to epithets to react violently. He

asked if a student editorial which ridiculed someone would be covered by the

rule. Senior Counsel Hodulik thought it highly unlikely that a situation

would arise in which an editorial would be found to violate the rule. Regent

Hirsch asked if the rule would apply to a student-to-student exchange if it

occurred in a private home or other off-campus location. Senior Counsel

Hodulik replied that such an exchange might be covered if a clear link to the

campus environment could be demonstrated. Regent Hirsch commented that the

Board has no right to make a rule that can potentially invade someone's home.

He opposed the rule for that reason and for the reasons he stated at the March

meeting.

Regent Flores stated that racial or other epithets are no part of the

exchange of ideas and are not protected speech. He urged the Board to adopt

the rule.

Regent Davis stated that the Board's energy should be focused on finding

solutions. In the past two months, he noted, the entire Black student body

had walked out at Olivet College because they were tired of indifference on

the part of people in authority. In Los Angeles, people had not rioted when

Rodney King was beaten; they rioted when they felt the system failed them.

The issue here, he stated, is whether or not the Board will do its job.

Throughout the entire debate he had heard no alternative solutions to the

proposed rule. While there were people who said education is the solution,

some of those same people have objected to multi-cultural and other ethnic

study courses. What everyone wants, he remarked, is an educated, polite

citizenry--but that will not be accomplished by doing nothing. He would

rather the Board made a mistake trying to solve a problem than to make the

mistake of doing nothing when it has the responsibility to do something. If

the rule were struck down, he would consider it his responsibility to try

another solution. It is his position that the Board has a responsibility to

address the problem proactively. Therefore, he continues to support the rule.

Put to a roll-call vote, Resolution 6099 was adopted, with Regents

Barry, Clusen, Davis, Flores, Gelatt, Lubar, Lyon, Schilling and Vattendahl

(9) voting in the affirmative, and Regents Dreyfus, Grebe, Hirsch, Krutsch,

Nicholas and Steil (6) voting in opposition.

REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE SYSTEM

Congratulations to Astronaut Brandenstein

President Lyall congratulated Astronaut Dan Brandenstein, who was

leading a space mission which began that day. Mr. Brandenstein is a graduate

of UW-River Falls.

Approval of Nonpersonnel Actions

Presenting Resolution 6100, President Lyall reported that it contained

no legal services contracts. She called attention to the following two items:

(1) Barron County has named the UW-Center there in memory of former Dean John

Meggars; and (2) the list contained an agreement between Parkway Hospital and

the UW Medical School which calls for the exchange of services. UW

psychiatric faculty and residents will provide certain clinical services to

Parkway and Parkway will provide support for laboratory facilities, equipment

and patient population for study.

Upon motion by Regent Schilling and properly seconded, the following

resolution was adopted unanimously:

Resolution 6100: That the report of nonpersonnel actions by

administrative officers to the Board of Regents and

informational items reported for the record (copy on

file with the papers of this meeting) be received for

the record; and that actions included in the report be

approved, ratified and confirmed.

Teaching Excellence Awards

Reporting on Teaching Excellence Awards, President Lyall recognized the

fine teaching faculty throughout the UW System who not only devote their

professional talents to the transmission of knowledge but give of themselves

as people to encourage, inspire and mentor students. Their students refer to

them as "enthusiastic, stimulating, conscientious, warm and genuine--someone

whose door is always open, always helpful and caring, interested, intelligent,

precise and personable, dynamic and outstanding, teacher and motivator, and

exceptionally devoted to the students."

The May issue of Wisconsin Ideas magazine contains the fifth annual salute

to UW's excellent faculty. One of the individual faculty profiled there is

UW-River Falls Professor of Elementary Education, De An Krey, who expressed

this sentiment about her students when they go forth to teach: "On that

critical day when my students teach on their own for the very first time, I

want them to know that I thought about them. They are important and whether

they succeed is very important to me. Just as their focus has to be on their

students, so does mine."

This spring, UW institutions are recognizing more than 65 distinguished

teachers, in an effort to provide greater rewards for teaching distinction,

comparable to those provided for outstanding research and scholarly

achievement. There are 3M and Pete Marovick Awards at UW-Eau Claire; Key

Kaufer Steiger and Amoco Awards at UW-Madison; Alumni Association and the

Allied Health Professions Golden Apple Awards at UW-Milwaukee; the

Underkoffler Teaching Awards at UW-Platteville, UW-Madison and UW Center-

Richland Center; the Rosebush Awards at UW-Oshkosh; the Stella Gray Awards at

UW-Parkside; the Phi Kappa Phi Awards at UW-Platteville; the Outstanding

Teachers Awards at UW-River Falls, UW-Stout, UW-Stevens Point, the UW Centers

and UW-Extension; the Roseman and Saunders Awards at UW-Whitewater; and the

Burlington Northern Award at UW-Superior.

Each of the distinguished teachers receiving these awards is an active

scholar, who is enlivening teaching with the excitement of asking new

questions and figuring out how experiments might be designed to find the

answers. Over and over, students say that what challenges them and sparks

their intellectual curiosity is catching this sense of excitement from their

teachers and from each other.

President Lyall congratulated the 1992 teaching award winners for their

outstanding personal and professional performance.

Status Report on 1992-93 Budget

President Lyall reported that Governor Thompson completed his budget

vetos and signed the 1992-93 budget adjustment bill on April 29, 1992. One

disappointment was the partial veto of learning technologies funding. This

legislative initiative had been reduced several times before an amount was

approved by lawmakers, and the Governor's concern with the ending balance and

advance commitments eliminated the supplies and expense portion of this

funding, leaving about $.5 million remaining. Additional funding for

laboratories and student computers was approved, and support for those needs

was very much appreciated.

President Lyall believed understanding of the importance of supplies and

expense, library, and learning technologies needs to the instructional and

research programs is much deeper now than in the past, and a dialogue has

begun which should be helpful with future budgets. Moreover, she stated, the

importance of the 4.5 percent pay plan must not be underestimated. Nearly 70

percent of the systemwide budget increase in state and fee revenues is

required for the pay plan. It is much appreciated that the pay plan was kept

intact during this difficult year. Looking at the budget adjustment bill as a

whole and in view of what is happening in other states, President Lyall

stated, the UW System should be very appreciative of the support of the

Governor and of the many friends in the state Legislature.

President's Award for Outstanding Student Government

President Lyall presented the 1991-92 President's Award for Outstanding

Student Government to the UW-Stout Student Association for leadership in the

promotion of diversity, a strong service orientation toward students, and for

helping to build strong partnerships with all segments of the university

community. The award was accepted by Mark Klein, President of the UW-Stout

Student Government Association.

Announcement of Retirement, UW-Extension Chancellor

Announcing that UW-Extension Chancellor Patrick Boyle planned to retire

on December 31, 1992, President Lyall stated that Chancellor Boyle has

provided exceptional leadership in making Wisconsin a national model for

extension activities.

Presentation: The UW-Milwaukee School of Architecture and Urban

Planning and the Skylines of Wisconsin

President Lyall introduced Chancellor Schroeder, who noted that the UW-

Milwaukee School of Architecture and Urban Planning has been designated as one

of UW-Milwaukee's Centers of Excellence. The Chancellor then introduced

Robert Greenstreet, Dean of the School, who gave a slide-assisted presentation

demonstrating how the faculty, alumni and students of the School have shaped

the skylines of Wisconsin's towns and cities. A wide range of buildings and

spaces designed or influenced by members of the School was presented, which

collectively show the enormous impact the program has had in 20 years on the

quality of the built environment in Wisconsin.

REPORT OF THE BUSINESS AND FINANCE COMMITTEE

Regent Gelatt, Chair of the Committee, presented the report.

Consent Agenda Items

Presenting Resolutions 6101 and 6102 which had been unanimously approved

by the Business and Finance Committee, Regent Gelatt moved their adoption by

the Board of Regents as consent agenda items. The motion was seconded and

carried unanimously.

Approval of Gifts, Grants and Contracts

Resolution 6101: That, upon recommendation of the President of the

University of Wisconsin System, the gifts, grants and

contracts presented at this meeting (copy on file with

the papers of this meeting) be accepted, approved,

ratified and confirmed; and that, where signature

authority has not been previously delegated,

appropriate officers be authorized to sign agreements.

John C. Dunn Bequest

Resolution 6102: That, upon the recommendation of the President of the

University of Wisconsin System and the Chancellor of

the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the bequest of

the late John C. Dunn, of Washington, D. C. be

accepted; and that the Trust Officer or Assistant

Trust Officer be authorized to sign receipts and do

all things necessary to effect the transfer for the

benefit of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

(In disposing of the residue of the estate, the Will

provides:

Item II: I give all of my corporate securities,

with the exception of my stock in Honeywell, Inc., to

the University of Wisconsin in appreciation for the

education I received there.

Item III: I give and devise the residue of my

estate to my parents WILLIAM A. AND INEZ N. DUNN or

all to the survivor. In the event that they shall

both predecease me then I give my stock in Honeywell,

Inc., to the University of Wisconsin.)

John Dunn received a B. A. in Comparative Literature

in 1956 from UW-Madison. Approximately $100,000.00

will be received from his estate.

---

Trust Fund Asset Allocation Ratio

Regent Gelatt reported consideration by the Business and Finance

Committee of the Trust Fund asset allocation ratio, which is the percentage of

assets held in stocks compared to those held in bonds. The ratio must balance

between the desire for endowment growth and the requirement for income from

the endowment. The spending plan now in place will provide additional

stability in the spending fraction. Assistant Trust Officer Konshak reported

that the university endowment asset allocation ratio has been low in the stock

fraction for the past ten years compared to other universities. The Committee

considered alternatives to the current 60 percent stock/40 percent bond ratio

and decided not to make any change at this time.

The following resolution was adopted by the Business and Finance

Committee to direct the equity investment managers to be fully invested as of

October 1992. Because trust fund responsibility is delegated to the Business

and Finance Committee, action by the Board is not required.

Resolution: That, upon the recommendation of the President of the

University of Wisconsin System, effective October 1,

1992, the equity investment managers for Trust Funds

Principal be directed to be fully invested; that is, a

cash position would not normally be found in their

portfolios.

Regent Barry inquired as to the reason for selecting October of 1992 as

the timeline for the full investment rule and whether the rule would

substitute Regent judgment for that of the asset managers.

Regent Gelatt replied that the intent of the resolution is that equity

managers should invest all of the money available to them in equities and not

keep a portion of it in cash. Typically, they have kept about five percent of

the money in cash. The October date was selected to coincide with the

effective date of appointment of new investment managers.

Regent Nicholas explained that holding a portion of the funds in cash

changes the 60/40 ratio that the Committee hopes to maintain. If the manager

should take a large cash position, it would frustrate the policy's intent.

Regent Davis asked if the directive could provide an excuse for asset

managers to maintain that performance might have been better during a

particular period if they had the freedom to move into a cash position.

Currently, many brokerage houses have similarly structured 60/40 portfolios

but, because of current market volatility, are moving to a 5-10 percent cash

position in order to pick the right time to get back into the market.

Regent Lubar responded that the key issue is the percentage of total

funds in equities and in fixed income. The statute sets a maximum of 75

percent in equities. The Regents have chosen 60 percent, which is on the low

end of the Big Ten schools. The best performance was by Purdue University

which has about 77 percent in equities. If the Regents choose 60 percent, it

is that percentage, not less, that should be invested in equities. The

philosophy is that investment in equities requires a long-term view, with best

results achieved by buying quality stocks, holding them through the cyclical

ups and downs, and not trying to outsmart the market.

Regent Davis wondered if it might not be preferable to increase the

equity percentage rather than to direct the equity managers to be fully

invested. His concern was whether the managers would be handicapped by that

directive.

While the directive might handicap them to some small extent, Regent

Nicholas felt, they probably could not be successful overall in trying to time

the market. The Committee is more comfortable with the managers being fully

invested and thinking about the stocks themselves rather than about what the

market may do.

Segregated Fee for Intercollegiate Athletics, UW-Madison

In consideration by the Business and Finance Committee of the segregated

fee for intercollegiate athletics at UW-Madison, Regent Lyon introduced an

amendment to the proposed resolution. The amendment provided for improved

accounting procedures, so that student government representatives can have

access to revenues and expenditures to enable them to make segregated fee

decisions; that the outstanding deficit at the end of this fiscal year be

retired over the next five years in a consistent manner; that unanticipated

revenue and expenditure savings be applied to the outstanding deficit; that,

beginning in 1993-94, the segregated fee for athletics be addressed within the

normal segregated fee policy; that the Board of Regents be assured that each

unit within the Athletic Department receives regular budget versus actual

expenditure comparisons; that the Athletic Department adopt generally accepted

accounting practices; and that a proper funding relationship be maintained

with the UW Foundation.

Associate Vice Chancellor Torphy and Athletic Director Richter spoke to

the amendments. Regent Lyon stated that his purpose was to remove the issue

from the Regent agenda and have it placed in the regular segregated fee

process in the future. Regent Schilling questioned the original intent of the

fee when it was passed in 1989 as compared to the purpose for which the fee

was actually used.

Representatives from the Wisconsin Student Association and Segregated

University Fee Allocations Committee voiced their opposition to the

continuation of the segregated fee and questioned the legality of assessing

the fee in light of students rights under section 36.09(5) of the statutes and

System Financial Policy and Procedures Paper 37. They commented that the fee

was intended to be temporary and to preserve non-income sports. However, non-

income sports were cut, and continuation of the fee indicated to them that the

fee is not in fact temporary.

Upon motion of Regent Schilling and seconded by Regent Hirsch, the

Committee tabled the resolution until the June meeting and asked for

clarification as to authority to impose the fee under the statute and existing

System policy.

Licensing Policy Report

Deputy Vice President Marnocha presented to the Committee a follow-up

report on licensing policy, as requested by the Board when the policy was

adopted in May 1991. The UW-Madison trademark case is still in process, with

completion of the litigation expected to take place this summer. An extension

of the contract for special counsel has been requested for a total

authorization of $145,000. It was pointed out that Representative Wineke had

asked the Legislative Audit Bureau to do a review to determine the total cost

of litigating the trademark case. The LAB auditors are currently performing

that review.

The Business and Finance Committee asked the Licensing Committee to

address the predicted outcome of the litigation, in addition to the total

estimated cost to achieve resolution.

Report of the Deputy Vice President

Status of Federal Indirect Cost Rate Negotiations

Deputy Vice President Marnocha provided the Committee with a status

report on UW-Madison's federal indirect cost proposal for a rate of 46

percent. Where possible, UW-Madison incorporated the Legislative Audit

Bureau's recommendations into their proposal. Federal auditors and

negotiators will be in Madison next week to review the LAB report and to

negotiate the indirect cost rate for research.

Mr. Marnocha also provided information on a survey of federal indirect

costs being conducted by the Council on Government Relations and by the

Association of American Universities. It is anticipated that recommendations

for further adjustments to the indirect cost system will be made this fall.

Audit Subcommittee Meeting

Audit Schedule for 1992-93

Internal Audit Director Brunkow provided the audit schedule for 1992-93.

Audits have been prioritized into three groups. Audits in the priority-one

group include: athletics, federal grants and contracts, the Corporation for

Public Broadcasting, academic fee systems, and other audits mandated by the

Board of Regents, by existing UW System policies and procedures, and by donor

requests. Mr. Brunkow indicated that, in order to perform all priority-one

audits, the four auditors who have been withdrawn by the Department of

Administration, would need to be replaced. The Chair directed System

Administration to bring forward a recommendation on the staffing and funding

needs to complete all of the priority-one audits, including funding sources.

The Committee as a whole emphasized the importance of the audit function and

expressed support for adequate staffing.

Informational Report on Role and Responsibilities

of Audit Subcommittee

Proposed guidelines were provided on the role and responsibilities of

the Audit Subcommittee. The Chair asked Committee members and other Regents

to suggest revisions to the proposed guidelines, which will be returned for

action at the June meeting.

NCAA Audit of Intercollegiate Athletics, UW-Madison

Deputy Vice President Marnocha reviewed with the Committee the findings

of the NCAA audit of UW-Madison intercollegiate athletics. The management

letter that accompanied the audit recommended that the Department perform a

review of management information needs and determine the appropriate computer

hardware and software to fulfill such needs; that the Department adopt the

enterprise basis of accounting and corresponding policies and procedures; and

that the Department require conflict of interest statements from its

management personnel, coaches and board members.

Biennial Budget Process Seminar

Regent Gelatt announced that there will be a special budget seminar for

all Regents on Thursday, June 4, 1992, to review the annual and biennial

Lessor: The University of Wisconsin Foundation

P. O. Box 8860

Madison, WI 53708-8860

The current lease for approximately 11,316 square

feet (SF) of space located at 333 North Randall

Avenue expires on June 30, 1992. The lease will be

extended for a three-year period beginning July 1,

1992 through June 30, 1995, and will provide for

continued use of 9,617 SF for offices and 1,699 SF

for storage by various College of Engineering

The annual cost for the first year of the lease

will represent an increase of approximately three

percent over the current annual rental rate of

$106,824.40 (approximately $10.62/SF for office

space and $2.77/SF for storage). Annual rental

costs for the remaining two years of the lease will

reflect a similar increase over the previous year's

rate. The following table reflects the proposed

lease costs:

UW-Madison Camp Randall Stadium Structural Repair

Presenting Resolution 6110, which was approved unanimously by the

Committee, Regent Dreyfus explained that the project was for structural repair

of the west half of the Camp Randall Stadium seating. The east half had been

repaired previously.

It was moved by Regent Dreyfus and seconded by Regent Barry that the

following resolution be adopted by the Board of Regents:

Athletic Department's operating budget for the coming year.

Put to the vote, Resolution 6110 was adopted unanimously.

UW-Madison: Approval to Name Molecular Biology and Virology Building

Presenting Resolution 6111, Regent Dreyfus noted the tragic loss of Dean

Robert Bock, who had died in an accident shortly after his retirement.

Throughout his career he had been a major force in molecular biology and

virology. Naming the building in his honor would pay lasting tribute to his

accomplishments.

Upon motion by Regent Dreyfus, seconded by Regent Nicholas, the

following resolution was adopted unanimously by the Board of Regents:

Resolution 6111: That, upon the recommendation of the UW-Madison

Chancellor and the President of the University of

Wisconsin System, authority be granted to name the

Molecular Biology and Molecular Virology Building at

1525 Linden Drive the "Robert M. Bock Laboratories."

Report of the Vice President

Campus Space Planning, UW-Platteville

The Physical Planning and Development Committee heard a report on campus

space-planning efforts at UW-Platteville, which involved an intensive review

of utilization of existing space before any consideration could be given to

constructing new space. Each campus is doing such a study, and the Committee

is comfortable that the process will produce a well-reasoned, justifiable

capital budget.

Annual Report on Facility-Related 1992 Budgets of Cities and Counties

on Behalf of the UW Centers

The Committee received an annual report which showed that the UW Centers

facilities, constructed by cities and counties across the state, now have a

total value of $126 million. The municipalities have contributed over $4.5

million in operating budgets to the Centers at a time of intense fiscal

pressure, which demonstrates their strong commitment to these campuses.

Regent Dreyfus asked that letters be sent on behalf of the Board to express

appreciation for the continuing support and cooperation of the taxpayers and

leaders of those cities and counties.

Tenured Faculty Review and Development

The Report on Tenured Faculty Review and Development was presented at a

portion of the Education Committee meeting to which all Regents were invited.

The Committee heard testimony opposing the resolution from Professor Gloria

Toivola representing TAUWP; David Fellman, Professor Emeritus, UW-Madison; and

Professor Diane Kravetz, Chair of the University Committee, UW-Madison.

Testimony expressing no objection to the resolution was heard from Professor

Julie Brinkley, representing the UW-Green Bay Faculty Senate.

Regent Flores expressed concern that the Board may not be able to

increase funding for faculty development, a necessary component of the

proposed policy. President Lyall agreed that currently not enough is done to

provide professional development in the UW System, but allowing institutions

to divert funds through quality reinvestment in 1993-95 will provide some

flexibility. There also will be a modest Decision Item Narrative prepared for

consideration by the Board in the biennial budget process that will recognize

the need to make further investments in professional staff development.

A friendly amendment was moved by Regent Krutsch that the following

sentence be added to the Guidelines, paragraph D.2., page 3: "The review and

methods should fully respect academic freedom." The amendment was accepted by

consensus. It was moved by Regent Gelatt, seconded by Regent Clusen, to amend

the Guidelines by adding a new Guideline 8 on page 4: "Nothing in these

Guidelines is intended to alter the existing rules dealing with tenure

termination." The amendment passed unanimously. The resolution adopting the

Guidelines as amended passed, with Regent Flores voting "No."

Upon motion by Regent Davis, seconded by Regent Clusen, the following

resolution was adopted by the Board of Regents, with Regent Flores voting in

opposition:

Resolution 6118: That, upon recommendation of the President of the

University of Wisconsin System, the Board of Regents

adopts the Guidelines for Tenured Faculty Review and

Development. (The Guidelines are attached as EXHIBIT

A.)

Report of the Vice President

UW-Madison Faculty Awards

Vice President Portch announced to the Committee that four UW-Madison

faculty have been awarded Guggenheim Fellowships for 1992-93 and that five UW-

Madison faculty have been elected as Fellows of the American Academy of Arts

and Sciences, including Chancellor Shalala.

Sabbatical Legislation

The Committee was advised that Governor Thompson recently signed

legislation that permits faculty on full-year sabbatical at less than full-

year salary to receive a full-year credit for retirement benefits.

Offer of Vilas Trustees

The Trustees of the William F. Vilas Estate responded to the Board's

request in April 1992 with an offer of $1,169,520, for fiscal year 1992-93 to

support the activities listed in the April agenda materials.

Status Report on the Development of the

Bill of Student Rights and Responsibilities

Vice President Portch reported to the Committee on the status of the

development of the Bill of Student Rights and Responsibilities. He had

concluded that it is necessary for the draft statement to have the benefit of

discussion by organized focus groups on each campus next fall and consultation

from established systemwide groups. This step is necessary to strengthen the

document further and to build the needed widespread support. He expects to

bring the document to the Board by February 1993.

UW-Milwaukee Presentation: The UW-Milwaukee Honors Program and the

Bradley Foundation Professorships

Reporting on a presentation made to the Education Committee on the UW-

Milwaukee Honors Program and the Bradley Foundation Professorships, Regent

Davis pointed out that the program is very impressive, as is the young

scholar, a product of the program, who participated in the presentation.

Trends in Enrollment: Fall 1991 Update

The Committee discussed the Occasional Research Brief "Trends in

Enrollment," which is an update of the fall 1991 enrollment figures. The

report notes that in the last ten years fewer students are taking 15 or more

credits. Fifty-five percent are now deciding to take more than four years to

complete their degrees because of reduced credit loads.

Projected Supply and Demand for Faculty

Reporting on Committee discussion of the Regent staff paper, "Projected

Supply and Demand for Faculty," Regent Davis said the report concludes that

the shortage of faculty may not be as severe as had been projected in the late

1980s. Vice President Portch said that future occasional research briefs will

analyze the Wisconsin situation in light of the national data. The Committee

was very complimentary of the work of Executive Assistant Fredi Bove in this

area.

Authorization to Recruit Dean, College of Letters and Science,

UW-Madison

In discussing the authorization to recruit for a Dean, College of

Letters and Science, UW-Madison, some members of the Education Committee

questioned why the recommended salary range is so much higher than the salary

of the former incumbent. Vice Chancellor David Ward distributed additional

comparative salary data for Letters and Science Deans at UW-Madison peer

institutions. Only one such salary is below the range requested in the

authorization to recruit and three are above the maximum salary of the range.

Adoption by the Board of Regents of Resolution 6119, which was

unanimously approved by the Committee, was moved by Regent Davis, seconded by

Regent Dreyfus and carried unanimously.

Resolution 6119: That, upon recommendation of the Chancellor of the

University of Wisconsin-Madison and the President of

the University of Wisconsin System, the Chancellor be

authorized to recruit for a Dean, College of Letters

and Science, University of Wisconsin-Madison.
