Report of pur chase offer on Wayne, Michigan j property; | | appraisal to be j made and listing! ;for sale to be considered j j3. Vice President Wilkinson reported that the University has received an offer, which expires May 20, 1974, to purchase the Michigan Bell Telephone Co. office facility located in Wayne, Michigan. Mr. Wilkinson submitted the following information to aid in the consideration of this offer. The University and the Michigan Bell Telephone Company entered into an agreement in 1957 whereby the University erected a building in Wayne, Michigan which was leased by the Michigan Bell Telephone Co. This structure is an investment of the Retirement Fund of the University totaling $131,024. The building is located in the central business area of the city which is currently under urban renewal and consists of 7,954 square feet. The current indebtedness on the University books for this facility is $43,732. The current lease with the Michigan Bell Telephone Co. was effective December 1, 1973 and extends for a five-year period, with two five-year options to extend subject to rental rate adjustment. The University is currently receiving an annual rent of $20,860 which will be reduced on June 1, 1974 to an annual rate of approximately $14,800, since the University was unable to satisfactorily provide parking arrangements adjacent to the facility. The efforts on behalf of the University to secure additional parking have been previously reported to the Board. Finance Committee Minutes, continued May 17, 1974 3. Wayne Property, continued jWayne Property, icont. The University has received an offer to purchase this property through Mr. David A. Cotter, an East Lansing realtor, in the amount of $118,000 with an option that this j purchase agreement be exercised by the University on May 20, 1974. Since the University had not listed this property for sale, a prior appraisal was not obtained. However, I with the receipt of this offer, Mr. William Porter of Porter Realty in Lansing was requested to render an opinion as to the value of this property. Time did not permit ( Mr. Porter to conduct a thorough appraisal, but it was his opinion that the value of thej property would be between $100,000 and $135,000. j The offer to purchase did not identify Mr. Cotter's client. However, in a follow-up j conversation with Mr. Cotter, Vice President Wilkinson informed him that if this offer .'! j was accepted by the University, the client would have to be identified in order to protect the University against a possible conflict of interest involving a University \ employee and, also, that financial arrangements acceptable to the University would have j. to be satisfactorily resolved. I Facts that should be considered by the Trustees in making a decision are that the j present investment will earn approximately $14,800 per year, and that an investment of I | the proceeds from sale of the property, based on a 10% factor for income and appre- ciation, would generate approximately $11,800 per year. Another factor which must be j j considered is the appreciation of an equity asset versus a real estate asset. The Wayne property is currently land-locked and the University has been unsuccessful in j securing additional parking after many months of effort. Without additional parking, j the asset is of limited value and with doubtful appreciation. Attorney Carr is currently reviewing the offer to purchase. The Trustees agreed that the offer of $118,000 submitted by Mr. Cotter's client would not be accepted but that after an official appraisal the listing of the property for sale should! be considered. ! 4. Report from Vice President Wilkinson and Assistant Vice President Terry on the status (Report on status of funding of the University retirement plans. jof funding of JUniv. retirement In June 1972, when the Board approved the conversion of the non-contributory retirementjplans plan to a contributory plan under TIAA/CREF, it was understood that periodic reports j would be made as to the status of funding of past service costs. The following report j | reflects funds made available to this program through March 31 of this fiscal year. An actuarial study is currently under way to update previous estimates of total past service costs. The results of that study, together with a complete report as to the status of the funding program, will be presented to the Board in the fall. j j FUNDS AVAILABLE TO THE RETIREMENT PROGRAM July 1, 1973 to March 31, 1974 j j Charges to current operations Net earnings from apartments Auxiliary Services Investment income from assets held by University Proceeds from Disability Plan TOTAL Less: Expenses Payments to beneficiaries Investment fees Funds available to contribute toward past service costs General Fund $1,206,603 669,356 1,914 $1,877,873 Dormitory and Food Services Fund $ 479,494 700,000 , $1,179,494 940,722 16,920 148,679 $ 920,231 $1,030,815 Trustees Huff and Thompson asked that, in view of the rising cost of living, the possibility! of adjusting retirees1 pensions be investigated. Trustee Huff commended those involved in j conducting the smooth transition from the non-contributory to the TIAA/CREF retirement plan.j 5. In a follow-up discussion on the AICPA Audit Guide and its impact*on the financial operations of the University, the Trustees discussed a letter from Ernst & Ernst indicating that most of the concerns relating to the Audit Guide have been satisfactorily resolved. AICPA Audit Guide Assistant Vice President Stephen Terry also reported that he had surveyed other public educational institutions with several questions regarding their compliance with the practices outlined in the Audit Guide and found that MSU compares very favorably with the other institutions. A memorandum covering MSU's variations from the Guide will be prepared for discussion, before the June 21 Board meeting, by the Trustees' Audit Committee (Trustees Martin and Thompson) with Ernst & Ernst. A copy of this memorandum will be distributed to all Trustees. , ^^«£>*^*£W?fc.,: 8118 Approval pur chase of land in Ionia Co. for Hort, Research jFinance Committee Minutes, continued May 17, 1974 I |6. In September 1973 the Board of Trustees authorized the Administration to investigate the possibility of purchasing additional land for the development of horticulture research. Executive Vice President Breslin distributed a map showing the location of property in Boston Township, Ionia County, on which options have been taken for this proposed new horticulture research center. (The map and a brief description of each parcel of land are filed in the Secretary's Office). Mr. Breslin introduced Dean L. L. Boger, College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, and Chairman John Carew, Department of Horticulture, who further described the properties and emphasized the desirability of their acquisition for the Horticulture Department. ! Motion was made by Trustee Huff, seconded by Trustee Carrigan, to exercise the options on the Mick (219 acres), Bowen (1 acre), Mick (40 acres), and Tucker (99.01 acres) parcels at a total cost of $422,000* < < Trustee Merriman moved a friendly amendment, which was accepted by Trustee Huff, to purchase also the Kooiman property (80 acres) at an additional cost of $80,000, the option on which expires August 1, 1974. i ^President Wharton pointed out that since the Kooiman option does not expire until August 1, 1974, an alternative would be to approve the purchase of the Mick, Bowen, Mick, and Tucker parcels and delay action on the Kooiman option pending a further analysis of the desirability jof acquiring this property with perhaps a site visit by all or some of the Trustees. This alternative action was offered as a substitute motion by Trustee Martin. It was seconded by Trustees Stevens and Carrigan and unanimously approved. Adj ourned.

Ii Financial arrangements for direct lend ing student guaranteed loan program authorized The Financial Aids Administrative Group has recommended that the University continue to offer a direct lending student guaranteed loan program and requests that the Administration and the Board of Trustees approve authorization for the University to borrow up to $1,500,000 to provide a source of funding for this program for the 1974-75 academic year. RESOLVED that the Vice President for Business and Finance be directed to complete financial arrangements for the above loan program with detailed financial arrangements to be approved at a subsequent Board meeting. Unanimously approved. Motion by Trustee Merriman, seconded by Trustee Carrigan. Dormitory rates ^4. eff Fall term 1974 and Married Housing rates eff Oct. 1, 1974 approved In arriving at the recommendation to establish the dormitory rates for the 1974-75 school year, projections as to the level of expenditures took into consideration the following assumptions: 1. It is projected that expenditures for personal services, which include all salaries and wages paid plus related fringe benefits, will increase by approximately $553,000 over the current year's expenditures. This projection takes into consideration the labor contracts previously approved by the Board of Trustees plus a price adjustment for social security and other fringe benefit costs. 2. It is projected that food purchases will increase approximately 10% in cost over the current school year, which will result in an increased expenditure of approximately $440,000. This percentage adjustment is actually lower than what is being taken into consideration at other universities. However, our current purchases would indicate that this expenditure is an accurate projection. Michigan State University has an advantage in that we have a fine food stores facility which allows us to take advantage of market conditions and purchase at times which bring the greatest economic advantage to the University. 3. We have also carefully reviewed the expenditure for the purchase of utility services, taking into consideration the current price of fuel. Since our current housing rate is adequate to absorb a substantial price increase reflected during the current fiscal year, we will not recommend that the dormitory rates be increased to cover an increase in this expenditure. However, we will closely monitor this situation during the fiscal year in order to assure that a substantial increase will not jeopardize the financial position of the dormitory program. We are projecting an average dormitory occupancy for the school year of approximately 16,600 students. The recommended rate of $10.00 per term will generate approximately $500,000. It should be noted that this would not be sufficient to cover the increased cost of operations as outlined in items 1 and 2 above. However, we are of the opinion that the next yearfs earnings will be sufficient to absorb a substantial portion of the increased operating costs. An allocation from the Trust Reserve for those trusts for which that rate will not be adequate will be made in order to meet the financial commitments of the University for the 1974-75 fiscal year. The management of the : dormitory program as well as the office of the Vice President for Business and Finance are confident that we will meet the commitments of the dormitory program, barring any unforseen difficulties such as utility cost increases substantially beyond those projected or food cost increases materially greater than 10%. A monthly unit projection of the married housing cost would indicate that the expendi tures for personal services will increase approximately $3.43 per month and utility costs will increase approximately $2.17 per month. All other costs would increase less than 300 per month. With the total increased cost of $5.97, we are of the opinion that approximately $4.00 of this cost can be recovered through savings in operations. Consequently, we are recommending only a rate adjustment of $2.00 per month to cover increased operational costs. D. OTHER ITEMS FOR ACTION, continued May 17, 1974 Other Items for Action 4. Dormitory and Married Housing Rates, continued A. It is recommended that the double room dormitory rate be established at $415 per term for the 1974-75 school year effective fall term of 1974. This is an increase of $10 per term over our current rate. Dormitory and Married Housing I Rates, cont. RESOLVED that the dormitory rate be approved as recommended* Unanimously approved. Motion by Trustee Carrigan, seconded by Trustee Martin. It is understood that units which offer options other than the standard double room and board contract will have rates adjusted in proportion to the $10 increase for the standard contract. Units which offer room only contracts will have increases which do not reflect increased food costs. B. It is recommended that the married housing rates be established at $119 per month for a one-bedroom apartment and $125 per month for a two-bedroom apartment for the 1974-75 school year effective October 1, 1974. This is an increase of $2.00 per month over the current rate. RESOLVED that the married housing rates be approved as recommended. Unanimously approved. Motion by Trustee Carrigan, seconded by Trustee Merriman. 5. Kalamazoo Road Proj ect jAction on (Kalamazoo Road IProject again [tabled The University Administration has benefited from the attention given this project by the University Building, Lands and Planning Committee which has helped focus on constructive concerns and beneficial revisions in the original plans. At the same time, it has been most fortunate in also having the project considered by the Campus Natural Areas Committee, all of whose eight members have extensive professional environmental competence. Based upon their professional evaluation, the Natural Areas Committee concluded that the beneficial aspects of the proposed project far outweigh anjr negative effects. Since any future environmental impact statement is unlikely to result in a more thorough or objective study than that produced by the well-qualified experts who make up the Natural Areas Committee, the Administration believes that the ultimate approval of the project on these grounds is virtually assured. However, since it is likely that formal approval by other political jurisdictions will hinge on an official environmental impact statement, the Administration recommends that the University make available the work of the Natural Areas Committee to those responsible for the project and that the Board of Trustees meanwhile approve the project. RESOLVED that the Board of Trustees believes that study of the University's Campus Natural Areas Committee establishes the likelihood that the revised plans for the Kalamazoo Road project will result in improvements environmentally and physically favorable to the University, and that it approves the University's participation in the project. Motion was made by Trustee Thompson, seconded by Trustee Merriman to approve the above resolution. Professor Anne Garrison, Chairman of the Building, Lands and Planning Committee reviewed in chronological order the actions taken by her committee culminating in the 12 to 1 vote on April 10 to approve the street and bridge proposal as described contingent upon the committee1s study and approval of governmentally approved environ mental impact study that would have to be made. Trustee Carrigan cited objections to the proposed plans on the part of businessmen, residents of University Village, students, and school children, and stated she had not seen any persuasive evidence that this is a necessary or desirable project with over whelming benefits to the University or the community people affected. In response to a question from Dr. Stack, Provost Cantlon stated that the Building, Lands; and Planning Committee membership includes representatives from the social sciences, humanities, landscape architecture, and urban planning. Trustee Thompson stated that he felt the committee did a very objective job in taking into consideration both sides of the issue and should be highly commended for the efforts they had put forth. Dr. Garrison added that much of the credit belonged to the Natural Areas Committee whose impact study seemed to carry the most weight with her committee. Trustee Stevens expressed concerns regarding truck traffic which might increase in the area due to the proposed improvements. Dr. Stack reminded the Trustees that the National Environmental Policy Act which requires the impact statement provides that rough drafts of such statements may be used by agencies such as the Board of Trustees in their deliberations, and stated he felt the Building, Lands and Planning Committee should be given an impact statement that offers alternative solutions. It was pointed out, however, that the Ingham County Road Commission did not want to proceed with any impact statement until they had tentative approval from the bodies that would be affected. Other Items for Action Kalamazoo Road Project, cont. Train Depot !D. OTHER ITEMS FOR ACTION, continued May 17, 1974 Kalamazoo Road Proj ect, cont. Trustee Merriman felt there would be no harm in tabling this matter until some future Board meeting. Trustee Huff moved, seconded by Trustee Stack, that action on the Kalamazoo Road Project be tabled and that a statement be submitted to Mr. R. 0. Schaeffer, Chief Engineer of the Ingham County Road Commisssion, to the effect that the Board concurs in his proceeding with the environmental impact study, such a study to be made available to the University's jBuilding, Lands and Planning Committee, and such an action by this Board does not constitute prior approval or rejection of the project. Motion carried by a vote of 5 to 3, Trustees Carrigan, Martin, and Radcliffe voting I!No.lf 6. The University has been approached regarding the development of.a lease agreement with the Capital Area Rail Council for establishing a train depot on the site of the old State Lumber Co. on South Harrison Road. On Friday, May 3, Vice President Wilkinson, Attorney Carr, Starr Keesler, and Executive Vice President Breslin met with three members of the Capital Area Rail Council. The members of the Rail Council were Mr. Andrew McElroy, Council President; Mr. Roland Rhead and a Mrs. Wolf, a student at Michigan State University and also a member of the Council. The meeting was held at the request of the Rail Council to determine if it was possible for MSU to assist them in finding a suitable site for a depot. The Council has looked at two other possible .sites, one in Lansing (the old depot) and one on the south side of Trowbridge Road in East Lansing. Both of these sites have proven unsatisfactory for a number of reasons. The Rail Council seems to prefer to have the depot in East Lansing for two reasons: 1. Ease of access if located near Trowbridge Road 2. The large number of students it is anticipated will use the rail service. A few years ago when the Grand Trunk Railroad was providing passenger service between Detroit and Chicago, the volume of student passengers exceeded all other passengers using the service. The Trustees will recall that at that time the Grand Trunk trains stopped at Farm Lane to pick up and discharge passengers. It is possible that a portion of a facility owned by the University on South Harrison Road that now houses our Inventory Department could be used as a site for the depot. It is fairly well located and could, with a few alterations, be made suitable for this purpose. Parking would be limited, but adequate, at the site. The facility referred to is the site of the State Lumber Company that the university purchased about five years ago. It is located on a triangular piece of land between the Grand Trunk tracks and the C & 0 Railroad tracks. The main drawback to this site is that it is located now in a highly congested traffic area and the conversion of this site to a depot will attract additional traffic, but the offset to this is the convenience of the site for the MSU students. It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve in principal this site for a possible depot and that the Administration be authorized to work out a proposed lease agreement for submission to the Board of Trustees and the Rail Council in June. It is proposed that the first lease would not exceed two years. The lease will be drawn by the University Attorney. There will be no cost to the University in this proposed transaction. RESOLVED that the above recommendation is approved. IUnanimously approved. Motion by Trustee Stevens, seconded by Trustee Merriman, Stein & Assoc.[7, to assist in Jenison Field- house fire safety improvej- ments The Fire Marshal has determined that Jenison Fieldhouse is not in compliance for the customary occupancy of 12,000. Engineering Services/Physical Plant Division have completed a preliminary review and estimate for the alterations that will be required to bring this facility into compliance with the Michigan Regulations Governing Places of Public Assemblage. On May 2, Dick Bernitt and Bob Siefert reviewed the proposed corrections with Captain Catton, Fire Marshal, and Lt. Dalton. The following items were discussed: 1. There seems to be no particular problem in getting adequate exits along the west side of the building. 2. Captain Catton thinks the limiting factor will be adequate aisle space, particularly at the four corners. Mr. Bernitt and Mr. Siefert agree. ~ Another • • • , -. J. - . n - , ., ^ ' - , . ," major problem and cost wxll be developing acceptable ramps from the exits on the west side because of the height of the fieldhouse floor above the parking lot level. D. OTHER ITEMS FOR ACTION, continued May 17, 1974 7. Architect for Jenison Fieldhouse Fire Safety Improvements, continued 4. Captain Catton suggested that because the rules he administers are about 30 years old and quite vague by other standards, we might want to review our plans with the State Labor Department to evaluate them against the proposed O.S.H.A. regular tions which will go into effect this year. 8145 Other Items for \ Action jjenison Field- jhouse Fire !Safety Improve ments Because of the complicated nature of this project, it is the recommendation of Mr. Siefert and Mr. Breslin that we engage an outside architect rather than having Physical Plant do the planning. We recommend that the University employ Stein and Associates as architect to assist in the planning necessary for the fire safety improvements. RESOLVED that Stein Associates be employed to assist in the planning of fire safety improvements in Jenison Fieldhouse. Unanimously approved. Motion by Trustee Stack, seconded by Trustee Merriman. 8. In conformity with existing practices, the College of Osteopathic Medicine would like to have the University enter into an affiliation agreement with the Ingham Medical Center. This agreement will formalize those arrangements made for providing clinical training of COM students and such other activities as are stipulated in the document. j Osteo Med., |Ingham Medical ] Ctr. affiliation !agreement !approved The agreement has been examined by the College of Osteopathic Medicine, the Office of the Provost, and the University Attorney. It comes to the Board with the Administra tion^ recommendation for approval. RESOLVED: The affiliation agreement between Michigan State University and Ingham \ Medical Center is hereby approved, effective May 17, 1974. Unanimously approved. Motion by Trustee Radcliffe, seconded by Trustee Huff. I j 9. On November 19, 1971, the Board of Trustees authorized the Administration to proceed JCaudi11, with the preliminary planning for the Performing Arts Center. Prior to this, there had been several years of discussion and work. In the mid-19601s, the first plans for a Communication Arts building included an auditorium. However, it soon became evident that a full complex was needed to replace the outmoded or deficient facilities. The Provost then appointed a Performing Arts Committee. Rowlett & Scott to be retained as architects for Performing I Arts Center ! In the spring of 1972, Dr. Wilson Paul was asked to develop a preliminary program statement for the committee. The discussion of this report led the committee to j decide that an extended, on-site field study of auditoria, theaters, and recital halls j would provide new insight into the development of performing arts complexes elsewhere j in the United States. From the membership of the committee, the President appointed { an Architecture Visiting Committee which included Mr. Kenneth Beachler (Director of j the Lecture-Concert Series), Professor Anne Garrison (Chairman, Committee on Building, j Lands and Planning), Professor James Niblock (Chairman, Department of Music), Professor! I Frank Rutledge (Chairman, Department of Theatre), Mrs. Dolores Wharton (Member, [ Michigan Council for the Arts), and Vice President Leslie Scott as chairman. The Architecture Visiting Committee visited some 15 performing arts centers and conducted an intensive assessment of each from the standpoint of their various concerns and competencies. The report of the Architecture Visiting Committee was submitted on November 26, 1973, including a recommendation that four architectural firms be considered. The President asked that the four firms be placed in order of priority, and in cooperation with the committee reached a decision to consider at least two architectural firms. On January 14, 1974, the President appointed a Performing Arts Program Statement Sub committee which included Mr. Beachler, Professor Niblock, Professor Rutledge, Mr. Robert Siefert (University Architect), and Dr. John Dietrich (Assistant Provost) as chairman. Dr. Dietrich and Mr. Siefert engaged in field study limited to the auditoria of the two architects under primary consideration. The subcommittee then prepared a report which they submitted on March 18, 1974, to be j used as the basis for interviews and discussions with the architects. Representatives j. | of the two firms visited the MSU campus on April 29-30 and May 7-8. During these 'j visits, the representatives met with both the full Performing Arts Committee, the j Architecture Visiting Committee, and the Program Statement Subcommittee. Following these on-campus interviews, the firm of Caudill, Rowlett and Scott, of .[ Houston, Texas, was the unanimous choice. (Among the outstanding examples of their worlc are Jones Hall in Houston and the new prize-winning Thomas Hall at the University of j Akron). If their selection -is approved by the Board, they would, of course, involve j j an associate architectural firm from Michigan and the selection of an acoustical . I' engineer in cooperation with the University. RESOLVED, that Caudill, Rowlett and Scott be retained as architects for the Performing Arts Center. Unanimously approved. Motion by Trustee Carrigan, seconded by Trustee Stevens. Huff asked that there be an opportunity for student input in this project. Trustee Sculpture for Performing Arts Ctr jp. OTHER ITEMS FOR ACTION, continued May 17,1974 10. Trustee Thompson presented the following statement: At the time that this Board of Trustees encouraged and approved President Wharton's acceptance of directorships with the Burroughs Corporation and the Ford Motor Company, the stipulation was made that all fees would come to this University. These fees are held in a special account and have now reached & total of $34,025.03. I The use of these fees for non-recurring items of importance to the University would appear to be an ideal policy. Ever since their arrival on this campus in 1969, President and.Mrs. Wharton have maintained a strong interest in the faculty of the Department of Art and a continuing support of the proposed Performing Arts Center. Accordingly, the following resolution seems appropriate and timely: THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the University Administration is authorized to use up to $30,000 from President Wharton's directorship fees to commission a piece of monumental sculpture to be executed by Professor Melvin G. Leiserowitz, of the Department of Art, which would be used in connection with the proposed Performing Arts Center. ^Unanimously approved. Motion by Trustee Thompson, seconded by Trustee Carrigan. Trustee |Huff suggested that it would be appropriate for the sculptor to collaborate with the Performing Arts Center architect in constructing this art work.
