Provost Cantlon introduced Dr. Robert P. Boger, Director of the Institute for Family and Child Research, who made the following report relative to the development of a facility for the Married Student Services Center. I. 1. Following the Board of Trustees' action on the Married Student Services Center proposal, an ad hoc planning committee including Dr. Dickerson, Dean Lee, Dean Winder, Mr. Foster and Mr. Roetman met to discuss alternative plans toward implementation. It was agreed that The Kiddie Care Corporation of Grand Rapids offer to provide such a facility, within the budgetary limits and other specifi- cations set by the Board of Trustees, be pursued. 2:.., A series of meetings with Mr. Siefert, Mr. Hunt ing ton, and Mr, Baron of the University Building Committee and Mr. Hirst, President of Kiddie Care Corporation, brought a "turn key" lease/purchase agreement with Kiddie Care nearly to comple- tion. 3. On November 6th, the Kiddie Care Board of Directors reversed their position with regard to the proposal; specifically with regard to the University1s removal option at the end of the first year's operation. 4. Subsequent meetings led to the investigation of other lease/purchase alternatives, as well as the possibility of alternative "turn key" construction approaches. 5. Discussions with Mr. Carl Haussman of Haussman Construction indicated a willing- ness on the part of that firm to build and finance a "turn key" facility for an outside total cost of $70,000. This was based on a general sketch of a facility utilizing the Kiddie Care modules in a more conservative fashion. II. In light of these developments, the following alternative is posed for consideration: !• The original budget as approved would stand, however, the necessity for an option to provide for the removal of the facility at the end of one year would be waived. 2. A "turn key" contract would be initiated to build an adequate facility, to be financed over time within the budget limits as set. This could be done with or without the Kiddie Care modules, which Kiddie Care has agreed to supply at or below their cost. Should they be used, the Kiddie Care modules would allow for: (a) minimal architectural and other planning costs, (b) minimal building time. (c) the option to expand the facility at minimal cost, since Kiddie Care has offered the University a no-cost option to purchase a limited number of additional modules at the end of one year. (d) meeting specifications, since they have been designed for child care and meet Federal and State guidelines for such facilities. i • 6959 Married Student Services Center Finance Committee minutes, continued December 11/ 1970 2. Married Student Services Center, continued III. The rationale for this commitment includes: 1. The needs of married students for such a program. (At the present time over 120 families have committed themselves to the program, giving an oversub- scription of 64 full-time equivalents.) 2. The academic needs across the University for improved early childhood lab- oratories. (Eleven courses in Family and Child Sciences and Psychology alone presently have direct involvement of students in the over-crowded existing laboratories. Total enrollment in these courses approaches 1,000 students.) 3. Research needs: (a) The present research program of the Institute for Family and Child Research, involving •*= $250,000 of funded research stands in jeopardy if improved and expanded facilities are not found. (b) The potential for expanding the amount of research funding in the development of child care programs, preschool education and child development. During the ensuing discussion it was apparent that the Trustees expect this proposed child day care center to be self-supporting. It was recommended that the administration study this proposal further and report back to the Trustees as soon as possible with recommenda- tions for this facility. 3. Vice President Wilkinson reported that his office has purchased for the University a general liability insurance policy with liability coverage for general campus property, professional staff, and false arrest. The total coverage represents $1,000,000 and the annual premium is approximately $60,000. Vice President Wilkinson indicated that at a later date he would report to the Trustees the source of funds used to fund this policyj General Univ, liability insurance policy pur- chased On motion by Mr. Merriman, seconded by Mr. Thompson, it was unanimously voted to approve the above action. 4. Notification of the sale of the 146 shares of Sears, Roebuck & Co. stock given by James Milne to the MSU Development Fund (see Gifts and Grants, page 6968) for a net amount of $10,107.68. JReport of sale of Sears, Roebuck stock On motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Mr. Merriman, it was unanimously voted to approve the sale of the Sears, Roebuck & Co. stock. 5. Dean Andrew D. Hunt, Jr. reported briefly on his recent meetings with Mr. Avrum Yedidia on a prepaid health care plan. : He indicated that in his judgment this is a feasible program for the University to become involved in but that it should not be a part of the College of Human Medicine. Dean Hunt reported that Mr. Yedidia had in the mail to him a preliminary report dealing with his recent visit to the campus and his thoughts on this program for Michigan State. Dean Hunt indicated that he would forward Mr. Yedidia1s preliminary report to the Trustees as soon as he receives it. There seemed to be genuine interest by the Board to have more information on the proposed prepaid health care plan. iReport on Avrum JYedidiaf s recom- mendations re prepaid health care plan 6. President Wharton reported to the Board on the following meetings he had attended recently. A. The Council of Ten meeting in Chicago on December 7. One of the major subjects discussed by the conference presidents was the possible use of their schools1 football stadiums by professional football teams. The presi- dents seemed to agree that the use of their school stadiums for pre-season professional games was acceptable if these exhibition games were played at least 7 days prior to the opening of the school's football schedule. The subject of renting the stadiums"to professional football teams for regular season games was also discussed. It appears that the University of Minnesota and Northwestern University may enter into such agreements. Report by Pres, Wharton on: Use of stadiums jby professional ifootball teams B* President Wharton also reported on the meeting he and other state college presi- dents were asked to attend at the invitation of Dr. John Porter to discuss a statewide system for educational radio and TV. The major subject of discussion was Senate Bill 234 which establishes a state system and provides for the control thereof. President Wharton reported that the State Board of Education would not certify to the Federal Government the support of any institutional grant until a state system was established. Statewide sys- Item of educa- tional radio and TV Attorney Carr reported he was continuing to negotiate with Mr. Ed. Wilson for the sale of Michigan State's share of Channel 10. Negotiations continuing re |sale of bhannel 10 I I I I I 6960 Recommendation by Pres. Wharton re his inaugura- tion Finance Committee minutes, continued December 11, 1970 6. Reports by President Wharton, continued C. In response to inquiries from the Trustees regarding plans for his inauguration, President Wharton recommended the following procedure: (a) that the formal inauguration be held in a private ceremony with participation limited to the Trustees, members of the Administrative Group, and immediate family; and (b) that the ceremony precede the annual Faculty Convocation when he presents the State of the University address. The Faculty Convocation is scheduled for Monday, February 15. Notices could be sent to other universities indicating that an inauguration is being held but that we are keeping it a private affair without the traditional participation by representatives from other universities due to our desire to use such funds saved in other more useful academic activities. The Michigan State University community could of course be free to attend the Faculty Convocation and thus feel some degree of participation. It would appear that this procedure would allow us to have a ceremony and whatever side benefits which this might provide while at the same time avoiding the need- less expenditure of funds during our austerity campaign. The Trustees suggested that the presidents of all of the other state colleges be invited to attend President Wharton1s inauguration. Univ. to be j chartered member I of Nat'l Inst. ; of Ecology 7. Provost CantIon recommended that Michigan State University be one of the chartered educational institutions in the establishment of a National Institute of Ecology. He indicated there would be 11 other institutions involved. Provost Cantlon also stated that there is no financial commitment by the University, \ On motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Mr. Huff, it was unanimously voted to approve the I above recommendation. Board Retreat \ scheduled for •! j Jan/ 6, 1971 Twin Beech air- j craft offered to| Univ. by Howard [• Sober for $20,000 8, The Trustees agreed to meet for a full day January 6, 1971 to review University programs and problems. 9. Executive Vice President Breslin reported to the Board that Mr. Howard Sober of Lansing had indicated an interest in selling his Twin Beech aircraft to the University. Breslin indicated that under proper supervision and use the aircraft would be a valuable asset to the University. The original cost of the five-passenger aircraft in 1961 was $257,000. Mr. Sober will sell it to the University for approximately $20,000. Mr. Sober has indicated to Breslin that he would like to give the aircraft to the University but he is unable to because of his tax situation. The Board asked that a program be prepared for them indicating maintenance and operation costs and a proposed schedule for the aircraft. Trustees invited 10. to Eastern Mich.; Univ.for informal j get-together I On motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Mr. Merriman, it was unanimously voted to ask Chairman Stevens presented a letter from Mr. Edward J. McCormick, Chairman, Board of Regents, Eastern Michigan University, inviting the Trustees to an informal get-together at Eastern Michigan University in January 1971. Secretary Breslin to reply indicating some members of our Board would attend. j Adjourned. !

On motion by Mr. Merriman, seconded by Dr. Martin, it was unanimously voted to approve the Finance items on the preceding pages. 1970-71 State appropriation cut 1%; depart- ments to reduce budgets 1%% ! 2. President Wharton announced that as part of the state-imposed reduction in 1970-71 spend- ing due to falling State revenues, MSU has been ordered to absorb a one percent cut, or approximately $600,000, in its current general fund appropriation. Similar reductions totaling $101,000 are required for the Cooperative Extension Service and the Agricultural Experiment Station. Because MSU has a number of large expenditures such as debt retire- ment, utilities, insurance, student aid, and personnel benefits which are inflexible and cannot be cut, the departments and units have been requested to effect a 1%% \ i i i i i i i 6961 SPECIAL MISCELLANEOUS, continued December 11, 1970 2. General Fund appropriation reduction, continued reduction in their current budgets in order to meet the cutbacks. They have been asked to report the manner in which they intend to reduce their budgets by December 21. A "freeze" on hiring which has been in effect has been relaxed, but the filing of vacancies will be more rigidly controlled to insure that personnel costs remain within the new budget limitations. In addition to the $700,000 reduction ordered by the State, the University's share of Federal land-grant funds for 1970-71 has been reduced by $87,000. A.

Recommendation from the Director of Personnel that the Board official recognition to the MSU Supervisor's Association. of Trustees give Several Trustees stated they would like to have additional background information on this recommendation before they voted on it, therefore, Executive Vice President Breslin recommended that this item be held over until the January 6 meeting of the Trustees. Other Items Recognition of Supervisory Assoc. delayed 2. Recommendation that the appropriate degrees be awarded to those students who according to the records of the Registrar completed the requirements for graduation summer and fall terms 1970. ^Degrees granted isummer and fall terms 1970 |Resolution: Stephen S. :Nisbet on retirement from Board of Trustees On motion by Mr. Merritnan, seconded by Mr. Nisbet, it was unanimously voted to award the degrees as recommended. 3. Trustee Stevens read the following resolution as a tribute to retiring Trustee Nisbet: It is seldom in the span of one lifetime that a man has the opportunity to make meaningful contributions in the fields of education, politics, and business. Yet, this certainly is true in the case of Stephen S. Nisbet, a member of the Michigan State University Board of Trustees since 1963 who will complete his term of office December 31, 1970. Born in Tawas City, Michigan in 1895, Trustee Nisbet attended local schools, graduating from Tawas City High School in 1911. He showed an early interest in working with young people when after starting his studies at Alma College, he became a teacher in the rural schools of Arenac County and in Whittemore of Iosco County. He served in the United States Navy during World War I and graduated from Alma College with the A.B. Degree in 1919. Continuing his in- terest in education, Trustee Nisbet became principal of the high school in Ithaca, Michigan. In 1920, he became principal of the high school in Fremont, Michigan and in. 1923 was elected superintendent of schools in Fremont. He resigned his position in 1945 to become director of public relations at Gerber Products Company in Fremont. He was elected to that firm's board of directors in 1951 and in 1954 became vice president of public relations, a post he held until his retirement in 1959. He retired as a director of the company in 1962. He also was a director and president of the Fremont State Bank. Assuming positions of leadership in education, Trustee Nisbet has held several offices in Michigan teacher organizations and In 1942 was elected president of the Michigan Education Association. The following year, he was appointed by Governor Harry F. Kelly to the State Board of Education and in April 1943 was elected to a six-year term. He was reelected for six-year terms in 1949 and 1955. Probably Trustee Nisbet1s most distinguished political accomplishment was his election as chairman of the Michigan Constitutional Convention in 1961. His I I I i C. OTHER ITEMS December 11,; 1970 :Nisbet Resolution 3, Nisbet resolution, continued I patience and skill in working with people played an important role in producing the state1s present constitution. He also served as a delegate to the Republican National Convention in 1960 and was elected to the MSU Board of Trustees in 1962. His political acumen has brought many politicians to his desk seeking counsel. Because his advice is always sound, he continues to win new friends each year. In addition to his activities as a member of the University1s Board of Trustees, he has served as a member of the Alma College Board of Trustees. He was secretary of the Fremont Chamber of Commerce for 15 years, and is a past commander of the Fremont American Legion Post, a past president and board chairman of the Michigan United Health and Welfare Fund, and a past president of the Michigan Society of Mental Health. Trustee Nisbet is presently vice president of the Michigan Welfare League, a 33rd degree Mason, a member of Phi Delta Kappa Professional education fraternity, and a member of the Fremont Congregational Church. Trustee Nisbet now spends some eight months of the year in Florida and often commuted to the winter meetings of the Board of Trustees. His sincere and dedicated efforts in the interest of improving and developing Michigan State University in its role as a major land-grant university will be missed by the Board. It is with both great appreciation and sadness that the Board accepts Trustee Nisbet1s departure from the Board and wishes him the very best in the coming years. On motion by Mr. Stevens, seconded by Mr. Merriman, the resolution x^as unanimously approved. Meeting adjourned at 11:10 a.m. President Secretary
