  Item e. was pulled from the Agenda.

f.

ITEM 119-104-R0503 Math Proficiency Admissions Standards (Discussion Item) Dr. Scott

  Dr. Scott indicated this was the final recommendation to the Board, following a lengthy and intensive process.  It introduces standard scores beginning Fall of 2004, phasing them in to reach full standard in the Fall of 2007.  She indicated that when the writing standards were introduced performance improved, and she expects that to happen with math as well.  This standard applies to freshmen, but not transfer or non-traditional students.  Dr. Scott proposed moving forward with the new standard as recommended, and to proceed in the next year to work with the transfer and non-traditional student standards.  There were no objections from the Board.

g.

Nursing Transfer Credit Articulation into MT Tech Nursing Programs (Report from MT Tech)

  Dr. Scott indicated this was the report on articulation requested by the Board when they approved the AS and BSN for Montana Tech.

h.

Gear Up Annual Accomplishments 2002-03 (Informational Item)

  Please see original report.

i.

Report on Spring 2003 Writing Proficiency Pilot in 89 High Schools (Informational item)

  One hundred twenty three teachers from 89 high schools have participated in training on scoring these tests.  The results are improving and this is another example of the cooperation between higher education and K-12.

j.

Proposed  MUS Transfer Articulation Project Costing Estimate (Informational item)

  Dr. Scott indicated they have surveyed at least once all transfer groups in the MUS.  The conclusion is no major transfer problem exists.  The other conclusion is the most economical thing is to work and update the educational match annually.  She indicated UM has taken action to introduce on-line automatic matching that permits students, faculty, and deans to look up and evaluate transfer credits for acceptance.  The CAOs believe too, that if a small portion of revenue and hard labor were devoted to activating and updating the system, it would be better than spending the kind of money indicated in this report.  One point of interest is that MUS is receiving and graduating transfer students at twice the national rate.  A program to monitor and track transfers by administration combined with an annual audit will show the percentage moving to campuses and compare their credit hours to graduation with those who originate on campus.  At UM and Montana Tech students are within 6 to 8 credit hours.  The largest differential in the range is 20 credit hours.  Dr. Scott recommended coming back to the Board with an interim plan as UM brings up the balance of the evaluation software, and to try to meet the requirements by other than spending the money indicated in the report.  There was no objection from the Board.

k.

ITEM 119-103-R0503 - Perkins Report - Arlene Parisot  Perkins Incentive Grant

   Regent Hamilton MOVED for APPROVAL to move Items d. and e. to ACTION at the May 29-30, 2003 meeting.

   Motion APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY on 7-0 vote.

Dr. Arlene Parisot indicated there is concern with the FY04 President's proposed budget.  Funding has not been changed at present, but is being considered in conference committee.  She indicated they met with each member of the Congressional Delegation last week in DC, expressing the impact the change would have on Montana.  Senator Burns assured her that since he is a member of the conference committee, he will work to maintain the funding level.  Dr. Parisot said the format for the '04 budget is a prototype of what the Perkins budget may move from formula-based to competitive.  Asked if it would help for the Board to send a letter to the Congressional Delegation expressing their concern, she indicated it definitely would.

  Regent Semmens MOVED for CONSENT of the Board to direct Dr. Parisot to put together and immediately send a letter to the Delegation expressing the Board's concerns about the cuts.

   Motion APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY on 6-0 vote with Regent Roehm out of the room

Ms. Arlene Hannawalt indicated the reauthorization will affect student loan programs.  She indicated they would like to see loan limits for freshmen raised to help with the increased tuition they face.

    Motion APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY on 6-0 vote with Regent Roehm out of the room

Dr. Arlene Parisot reported that by meeting or exceeding requirements, Montana as one of 16 qualifying states, had received a windfall of $750,000 for WIA, Adult Education and Perkins.

Consideration of Tuition Levels for FY04-05 and Long Term Budget Planning Regent Roehm/Commissioner Krause

 

Item b. was discussed at length at the budget presentation on Wednesday afternoon.

c.

ITEM 119-115-R0503 - Annual Approval of Tuition and Fees; MUS and Community Colleges - Rod Sundsted  Community Colleges   Course and Misc Fees   Tuition and Mandatory Fees AMENDED

 

Item c. requests final approval of the budgets presented on Wednesday afternoon.

   Regent Hamilton moved for APPROVAL of item c.

    Regent Hur moved to AMEND motion to approve tuition and fees as presented except for the e-mail fee at Great Falls College of Technology

 

Sara Anderson indicated the fee is $5.00 for e-mail.  It was approved five and a half years ago but was never imposed until now.  Students do not want to pay for what they can get free.  Dean Moe said they spoke with students about the fee, and listened to their concerns.  She explained the fee was not imposed before because the campus never had the money to buy the necessary servers before.  They intend to use the campus e-mail system for advising and teaching, and these issues need a secure site.  She also noted that students go in and out of different accounts which causes loss of communication.  She believes the $5.00 is minimal.

This item was cut short by the hour and picked up again after lunch.


The Board recessed at 11:50 for lunch with student representatives followed by a meeting with classified staff representatives

The Board reconvened at 2:06 p.m.


*   Representative Norma Bixby stopped by the meeting on her return from the Economic Summit in Billings and gave a brief of report of what had happened.  She stated it was repeatedly stressed that education is a high priority and a very important part of the economic development picture for Montana's future.  She spoke about a leadership program based on a Wyoming model.  Montana Leadership is ready to train 40 people and they are accepting applications.  The courses are on a one year cycle which is repeatable each year.  Ms. Bixby also indicated that the cluster concept appears to be promising.  Chancellor Sexton announced Sysco Corp. has settled in Billings and will bring more jobs to the area.

c.

ITEM 119-115-R0503 - Annual Approval of Tuition and Fees; MUS and Community Colleges - Rod Sundsted  Community Colleges   Course and Misc Fees   Tuition and Mandatory Fees  CONTINUED

  Motion to ELIMINATE the e-mail fee at Great Falls College of Technology FAILED on 4-3 vote with Regents Hur, Mercer and Taylor supporting.

   Regent Hur moved to AMEND the original motion to not approve the 1% quality increment at the University of Montana. 

  Aaron Flint, new president of ASUM indicated the students had voted against the 1% for quality.  Prof. Rich Howard and others said faculty have a different perspective and are in favor of it.  Most dollars are aimed at skills level type courses which are a large factor in the retention of those students who need extra help.

Regent Jasmin called for the question.

   Motion to ELIMINATE the 1% quality increment failed on 5-2 vote with Regents Hur and Mercer supporting.

 

Following a lengthy discussion and separating item c. in two parts, Regent Jasmin called for the question on the main motion

*    The Board returned to their discussion under item c. regarding work on the allocation model, and it was agreed that the Budget Committee would begin discussion and frame the various issues along with the allocation model.  It was requested that the allocation model presentation be provided to the Budget Committee for their use.  Regent Hamilton indicated the Tuition Committee could look at the fees, however they occur at a level beyond their original charge, and would require a significant amount of support from the Fiscal people.

The Board discussed the difficulties with the current location of the Commissioner's office, and a variety of ideas to solve the space issue.  Although MHESAC is able to pay whatever is needed because of their source of revenue, GSL and OCHE must keep their costs low based on state funding.  The second issue was whether to separate the three organizations or to keep them together.

   Regent Jasmin MOVED for SUPPORT of SAF to pursue the options for a future facility that will keep OCHE, MGSLP and SAF/MHESAC together.
