Move to approve the Budget Adjustment and Reduction in Force Plan to yield no less than approximately 4.7 percent of the Fiscal Year 2019-20 budget, the equivalent of $2,320,355.00 annually.

Seconded by Regent Reynolds and passed without dissent via roll call.

Regents Banks, Regent Barfield, Regent Harnice, Regent Jantzen, Regent Moffett, Regent Reddy, Regent Reynolds, and Regent Farris voted in favor of the motion. Regent Donald was not present for the vote. Regent Felder abstained from this vote.

Chairperson Farris stated that the back of the Campus Travel Policy includes a waiver which reads that any exceptions to the policy must be approved by the EVP or his/her designee, however, policies can only be waived by the Board. President Brown explained that foreign and international travel is not covered by this policy due and requires a separate set of forms. Chairperson Farris requested that President Brown's name be added to the waiver.

Regent Reddy asked why there is an option to fly business class for international travel, which is much more expensive. President Brown replied that this option is consistent with peer institutions. Further, international travel is paid by grant money and not the University or the state.

President Brown explained that the proposed Campus Travel Policy aligns with state travel regulations and will allow the President and EVP to suspend all campus travel.

Move to approve the Campus Travel Policy.

Seconded by Regent Felder and passed without dissent.

Before the motion reached the floor, President Brown clarified that HB 303 stated that KSU is committed to tuition increases of four percent per year but that KSU has been able to avoid this measure thus far because of other cost savings measures. President Brown is bringing this plan to the Board due to the language in HB 303 and stated that Board action declining the tuition increase is needed for inclusion in KSU's management plan.

In the absence of a motion and a second for the Proposed 2020-2021 Tuition and Fee Increase, there was discussion and a proposal to table this motion until the June Meeting.
