The purpose of these work sessions was to review the recent Auditor GeneralTs report on student financial assistance and the administration's response, and to meet with representatives of Cambridge Associates to continue the review of the University's investment program. The Trustees met in an Executive Session to discuss negotiation of upcoming collective bargaining agreements at 6:05 p.m. in the Galaxy Room of the Kellogg Center. (A copy of the minutes is filed in the Executive Session Minutes book in the Secretary's Office.) President Mackey called the meeting to order in Room 104 of the Kellogg Center at 7:33 p.m. Present: Trustees Bruff, Fletcher, Howe, Krolikowski, Lick, Martin, Reed and Sawyer; President Mackey, Provost Winder, Vice Presidents Breslin, Cantlon, Dickinson, Schonbein, Stewart, Thompson and Turner; Associate Vice President and Secretary Wilkinson, General Counsel Carr, Assistant to the President Carlisle, Faculty Liaison Group, and Student Liaison Group. 1.

Approval of the February 26 Minutes Moved by Trustee Fletcher, seconded by Trustee Lick, to approve the minutes of the February 26, 1982, Board meeting. Approved by a vote of 8 to 0. 3. Budget and Financial Planning At the request of President Mackey, Vice President Breslin updated the Board on legislative matters relating to the current and proposed 1982-83 budget. Vice President Breslin stated that the situation was in a state of flux and that negotiations were continuing between the Governor and the legislative leadership. Presently under consideration is a proposed increase in the State income tax, a proposed increase in the cigarette tax, and additional budget cuts of approx- imately $460,000,000. Mr. Breslin indicated that in the current proposal there were no further cuts to higher education. The fourth quarter withhold of appropriations is also receiving further review by the leadership. Mr. Breslin said that the State must resolve the cash flow budget problem by the week of April 5, 1982, in order to sell bonds for funding of capital projects. Vice President Thompson then reviewed with the Board the budget and financial planning document dated March 17, 1982, (copy on file in the SecretaryTs Office). Mr. Thompson highlighted the Cash Management Plan III which recommends reductions for fiscal 1981-82 in the financial and support service areas. He indicated that current salary lapses would permit the implementation of these reductions without staff layoffs. He said that the $500,000 savings from this plan could partially offset funds lost from investment income due to the proposed fourth quarter appropriation withhold. 4. Academic Program Review: Advanced Study At the request of President Mackey, Provost Winder reported that spring term enrollment is approximately 5.5 percent below the last spring term, which was the projected level. He also reported that for fall term enrollment we are projecting new first-time freshmen at 5,800, new transfer students at 1,800, and graduate students at 1,200. He stated that the freshman admission level is approximately 3 percent below last year and that the transfer admissions were less well off than a year ago. He stated that, overall, we are still close to the projected fall term enrollment level of 39,900. At the request of President Mackey, Provost Winder then reported on the April 12-17, 1982, University Open House. He indicated 12,000 students and their parents have been invited to visit the campus, and that we were able to contact almost all Michigan high schools. He indicated that between February 22 and March 4, a telethon was held wherein current MSU students contacted prospective students. He stated that the feedback from this approach has been positive. continued - - - Budget & Financial planning jAcademic Program Review: !Advanced Study I Academic Program Review: Advanced Study, cont.

OTHER ITEMS FOR ACTION, cont. April 1-2, 1982 Resolution in Recognition of Dolores "Bea" Mott, cont. Mrs* Mott held this key post, with steadily increasing responsibilities, through the administrations of Presidents Walter Adams, Clifton R. Wharton, Jr., Edgar L. Harden, and Cecil Mackey. Each benefited from Bea Mottfs knowledge of the University's policies and procedures. While she assisted each President, she managed the Office of the President with courtesy, intelligence, and skill. Mrs. Mott provided effective assistance to students, faculty, staff, and other administrators, as well. Particularly important, she was a friend to students who have sought advice and solutions to problems. Professional at all times, she was helpful, in the most positive sense—she taught and guided others in their developing careers. An avid Spartan fan, we know we can continue to count upon Bea Mott's presence high up in Jenison and in her seat in Spartan Stadium each fall. The Board of Trustees of Michigan State University greatly appreciates Mrs. Mott's outstanding service to the University and wishes her a happy and fulfilling retirement. Thank you, Bea Mott.

Resolution to Support Funding of Federal Student Aid Programs Whereas, Michigan State University, as a premier land-grant institution in this country which is committed to providing access to higher education for all who might benefit from it, has long advocated that the State's economically disadvantaged citizens not be deprived of the broad range of educational opportu- nities available at Michigan State University; and Whereas, Michigan State University has been able to provide these opportu- nities by offering financial assistance from a variety of institutional, state, and federal sources to help needy and talented students; and Whereas, The Federal administration is recommending substantial reductions totaling up to 51% in the PELL and campus-based federal student aid programs for the 1983-84 fiscal year resulting in reductions that would generate an estimated loss of aid dollars to Michigan State University students in amounts of $2,728,000 in PELL grants, $919,000 in the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant program, $583,000 in the National Direct Student Loan program, $574,000 in the College Work/Study program, $560,000 in the State Student Incentive Grant program, and more than $15,000,000 in the Guaranteed Student Loan program; and Whereas, Eligibility for Guaranteed Student Loan for graduate and profes- sional students would be eliminated, thereby diminishing the relatively small pool of quality graduate students on whom we depend as a major national resource and future foundation of the nation's scientific, intellectual, and professional strength; therefore, The Board of Trustees at Michigan State University resolves to inform the President and members of the Congress of the United States of the important role that federal financial aid plays in Michigan State University's ability to carry out its mission of access and service to its population; and : \ \ To ask members of Congress to vote to support the funding of the federal student aid programs at the level approved in the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1981; and To urge the students of Michigan State University, their parents, and citizens of the State of Michigan to appeal to their representatives and senators to continue support for these important student aid programs. Unanimously approved. Motion by Trustee Bruff, seconded by Trustee Fletcher. i I I 9 9 39 ii! Resolution on State Tax Increase i I D. OTHER ITEMS FOR ACTION, cont. Resolution on State Tax Increase April 1-2, 1982 Trustee Fletcher made the following statement and introduced the Resolution on State Tax Increase: Mr. President, Mr. Chairperson, my fellow Trustees, ladies and gentlemen: In January 1981 when we had the first all-campus session dealing with our budget problems here at Michigan State University, we projected the very severe financial reversals that we are now encountering and the deep budget cuts necessary in view of the Michigan economy. At that time, I very strongly suggested that we may, indeed, have to confront the unpleasant but necessary issue of having a tax increase here in the State of Michigan. The other 9 million citizens of the State of Michigan did not agree with me. I have obtained a few converts since then, and they include the Governor, the legislative leadership and, I believe, some of the citizens who have now taken it upon themselves to truly examine the financial situation in which we find ourselves. I know the very common temptation is abroad in our state to say: "government is inefficient, let them suffer." Yes, this afternoon I could go out and walk around this campus and probably find some modest examples of where we are not utilizing pubic funds in 100 percent efficiency. But, after all, we are mere mortals—this is a human mechanism. You are going to find inefficiencies any place you look. That should not be used as a general license for saying we should not properly fund important services of government—and there is no important service than higher education—if for no other reason than the impact it will have on Michigan's economy. We have explained all of this in the past. We are now building upon what the Trustees did last September 25 in sounding the original alarm that we did to the citizens of this state of the great peril that confronts this important University and all it represents to the people of our state. I truly believe that if we are given the opportunity to explain to the responsible, thoughtful citizens of Michigan, they will understand that we are not here as self- serving Trustees of a University trying to gather to ourselves resources which should be used some place else or left in the private sector. A tax increase is a necessary and appropriate thing if we are going to have fiscal integrity at this University. We need the additional resources just to remain competitive in the world of higher education, and I would remind those citizens of Michigan that the federal income tax that went into effect last October has already left in the private and personal pocketbooks of our citizens enough money to cover any of the projected tax increases they are talking about here in Michigan and, additional billions will be available beginning July 1 under the income tax cut which is scheduled to take effect then. Therefore, we are not asking that you devote additional resources over or above those which you are accustomed to devoting to governmental services. We are merely asking that if you truly believe in the new federalism, if you are truly committed to the idea of having things come back from Washington, part of the benefit of having the tax revenues come back is to assume greater responsibilities at the state level. That means we must have greater state resources committed to higher education and committed to Michigan State University. That is why the tax increase proposal is so important to this University and to this state. The Trustees, of course, are not the elected legislative voices of the people. The legislature is responsible for determining the precise program, but I do believe that it is important for this Board to demonstrate the political courage and integrity of saying "yes, we believe in our budgets and, yes, we are willing to stand up politically and be committed and counted on behalf of the program that will be necessary to fund it." And it is in that spirit and with that explanation that I offer this resolution. RESOLVED that the Board of Trustees of Michigan State University urges the Michigan Legislature and the Executive Office to develop and pass legislation instituting a necessary and effective tax increase. Approved by a vote of 8 to 0 on motion by Trustee Fletcher, supported by Trustee Sawyer. E. REPORTS TO THE BOARD 1. Board Committee Meetings a.

Wharton, Jr., that this imposing new facility has become a reality, and WHEREAS, In November 1971, he successfully recommended to the Board of Trustees that preliminary plans be drawn up for a performing arts center, and WHEREAS, On his recommendation, the Board of Trustees in 1974 appointed an architectural firm and launched a major capital enrichment program to provide funds for the center, and WHEREAS, He provided not only presidential leadership but also made generous contributions from his private funds and commissioned the sculpture which stands on the site of the new center, and WHEREAS, He and his wife, Dolores, through their dedication to the arts, provided the impetus to press forward on a project which represents a major cultural contribution to the University and the state, and WHEREAS, The center will offer enjoyment and educational opportunities now and for generations to come, therefore be it RESOLVED, That the Michigan State University Board of Trustees, through the authority entrusted to it by the people of the State of Michigan, officially names the new performing arts center the Clifton and Dolores Wharton Center for Performing Arts, and be it further RESOLVED, That this action carry with it an expression of gratitude for their lasting contributions which will enhance the aesthetic and cultural offerings of this great university. Prior to the vote, Trustee Emeritus Aubrey Radcliffe addressed the Board informing them of how pleased he was that the Board was considering adopting this resolution and felt that it was a fitting tribute to the Whartons with their strong interest in the arts.
