MOTION by Regent Reynolds:
Move the Board to adopt the agenda of the September 2, 2021 Quarterly Meeting. Seconded by Regent Burns and passed without dissent.
Dr. Aaron Thompson, President of the Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE), updated the Board on items in the Executive Order, stating that the Management and Improvement Plan needs to be sent to the Governor by November 1st and will eventually be forwarded to the House and Senate. The plan will have a financial needs analysis to get KSU to a point of thriving. He stated that CPE is working with CFO Greg Rush to make sure that there is a grounded basis for the dollars KSU will be requesting. The plan will also be focused on culture to ensure that KSU doesn't get into another deep financial need.
