### IV. Approval of Minutes:

===== PAGE 8 =====
### V. Committee Reports:

Academic Affairs

President Brown introduced a 3-pronged strategy to support academic outreach:

1. Merit support

2. Fully funding the existing vacant lines

3. KSU Thorobred Outstanding Professor (TOPs) initiative

The intention of TOPs is to hire purely exceptional candidates. Mr. Kevin Appleton will strategically fund this effort.

#### Action Item: Regent Farris made the motion to Kentucky State TOPS initiative. Regent McFayden seconded the motion. The motion passed

President Brown introduced the Atwood Institute for Race, Education, and Democratic Ideals. There are several Institutes on race and education, some on policy and but none address the democratic idea. The President will forgo his compensation for private membership fees to support The Atwood Institute. Dialogue with several national foundations interested in funding this initiative has begun.

#### Action Item: Motion to approve the Atwood Institute was made by Regent Gilmore. Regent McFayden seconded the motion. The motion passed

The Academic Calendar will be revised due to the closing of the Frankfort Convention Center's closing in October 2017. A major change will be to maintain our December graduation and add a third graduation because we do not have the space capacity to host a commencement for everyone as a whole since we are losing the Convention Center. The Faculty Senate will need to integrate this addition into the Academic Calendar.

Land Grant Director Kirk Pomper received notification of three capacity building grants. Our outreach grant is coupling with Alltech and Newport Aquarium. We are working on building a pipeline between Kentucky State University and high schools with a $150,000 grant. Raceways is looking for production and Dr. Robert Durborow obtained another grant for $600,000 to build fish apps. Approximately eleven capacity land grants were submitted and a number of those were collaborative efforts to build additional relationships between Land Grant and other departments. Commendations were given to Dr. Pomper for his continuous, progressive efforts.

President Brown has asked that all supplies codes be removed from the budget due to the abundance of supplies throughout campus. A central store will be created to better control our spending in this area.

===== PAGE 9 =====
Academic Affairs will review their areas to determine where support is needed. Program reviews have not been completed since 2014. Instead of eliminating programs in question, they will be suspended until evidence supports their return. Data will be prepared from Institutional Research and delivered to Academic Affairs and faculty to determine priorities and ensure alignment with the Faculty Handbook.

CPE Metrics Highlights:

1. Page 2 KR2.120 – Mandated programs were defined by CPE President Bob King and his team. The volume performance model will be discussed in the future and it is based on volume not percentage of Pell grant numbers.

2. Operational support on page 5. Ten percent (10%) of funding shall be allocated by facilities square footage. On July 6, 2017, we will meet with CPE on our metrics.

Chairperson Bearden made a request for simple documents describing what performance funding means to Kentucky State University.

There was a motion made by Regent Farris to recess for 5 minutes. The motion was seconded by Regent McFayden. Board recessed at 2:07 p.m.

Board reconvened at 2:15 p.m.

No additional action was taken on the Academic Affairs Committee report.

Enrollment Management and Brand Identity Committee

Admissions and Enrollment Update – Justin Mathis, Admissions Director, stated 145 students were enrolled in March and 452 students signed intent to enroll documents. Regarding students admitted in the 2+2 program, Dr. Wheeler explained that the program was intentionally implemented to be a pilot program and they are not counted in our cohort. The threshold on the 2+2 program will be discussed at the September Board meeting.

Media Report – Mr. Louis DeFreeze provided an update on brand identity. The new website is on administrative hold to assess the University’s needs. KSU Gold TV show currently appears on cable 10 and reaches over 10,000 households. The show airs every Monday at 8:00 p.m. Vice President Clara Stamps is assessing our audience of alumni, students, and community, to determine our needs.

Finance and Administration Committee

Action Items: Motion for the Approval of Tuition and Fees for Academic Year 2017-2018 - a 5% increase. Regent McFayden moved to approve

===== PAGE 10 =====
the tuition and fees for academic year 2017-2018 and Regent Farris seconded the motion. The motion passed.

Action Item: Approval of Fiscal Year 2018 Budget - The FY18 budget is relatively flat based on 1750 students. FY17 closed with 1793 FTE, so the prepared budget is extremely conservative. An increase on the tuition gross line will generate an increase over last year's budget. The increase will be applied to personnel raises. President Brown indicated the itemized budget will be ready in September. Regent Gilmore moved to approve the fiscal year 2018 budget. Motion passed.

Chrissy Fiscus from Dean Dorton provided an update on the A133 Audit on federal grant money citing repeat findings of internal controls of financial reporting, which is the most severe finding. The conversion to Banner, staff turnover, and the lack of succession training contributed to the repeat findings. An area of improvement is the reporting of student accounts.

Highlighted findings are:

Page 76: Section findings on A-133 audit. Financial Aid. Direct Loan and returns of Title IV funds.

Page 77: Direct Loan requires monthly reconciliation. It is recommended that policies and procedures be developed to ensure this procedure is completed monthly.

Finding 3: Reporting changes in student's status are not reported in a timely manner.

Finding 5: Eligibility to participate in the Perkins Loan requires the cohort rate to be at least 50%. Institutions with less than 50% may lose eligibility to participate in the Perkins Loan. Kentucky State University’s default is 40%.

Finding 6: In FY16, the catalog indicated Kentucky State University is an attendance taking institution. The finding indicates attendance was not reported. It is advised to not be an attendance taking institution.

Dean Dorton reported the University is required to report prior year findings. One finding was discussed with internal controls. The Board was alerted to a ledger error in 2016 and 11 journal entries. A summary of the return of Title IV funds was presented, including findings identified, resolved, and closed.

Vendor Payment Audit: The scheduled audit plan performed included a review of the vendor payment process and verification of payments made. Ingram Quick reported the following:

===== PAGE 11 =====
1. Lack of updated policies and procedures.

2. Lack of evidence

3. Improper procurement methods

A management action plan issued February 2017 citing the internal control structure was inadequate and needs to be updated. Mr. Appleton will prepare a payment schedule to avoid duplicate payments to vendors.

Action Item: Regent McFayden moved to approve the vendor payment audit. The motion passed.

Mr. Ingram Quick will present an annual audit plan in September.

Food Vendor Update: Ms. Sonia Sanders chaired the Food Services Committee and led the posting of a food services RFP. On May 15, 2017, recommendations received were placed on hold to reassess our needs. The Committee recommended the current food service with the current provider. An update will be provided in September.

External Auditor Update – We don’t have a current status for FY17. We are currently working with Mr. Appleton.

HR Update – Open Enrollment for health insurance is underway. The 3% increase in insurance rates will be absorbed by the University instead of by employees.

Position reclassifications: Clarification of employee classification, exempt or non-exempt, will be finalized by October 1, 2017.

Audit on retirement accounts: Significant progress has been made to employee retirement accounts. HR Directors from all Kentucky Universities have been meeting to determine how to meet the shortfall. The next meeting for this discussion will be July 13, 2017.

Environmental Health and Safety Area: Compliance training will be on-going.

Drug testing – Beginning August 1, 2017, drug testing will be performed with employees. Insurance rates typically decrease because of preventative health measures. Mandatory physical examinations begin in March for identified areas.

Salary study - Consultants are being contacted and we are trying to couple our efforts with current RFP's with other state universities.

===== PAGE 12 =====
## Action Items:

Board of Regents Meeting Schedule: It was moved by Regent McFayden to hold the Board of Regent meetings in the last month of the Quarter on the first Thursday, and Friday if needed. Motion passed.

Committee Restructuring: President Brown proposed to realign Board Committees to align with the strategic plan.

Regent McFayden moved to waive any bylaw issues that would preclude the change of committee names and approve the proposed names. Motion passed.

Institutional Advancement and Alumni Relations Committee:

Mr. Rick Smith, Interim Vice President for Institutional Advancement and Alumni Relations, gave an update on the Cheaney Plaza Brick Project. One hundred bricks have been sold.

Circle City Classic will be September 23, 2017, in Indianapolis, Indiana. 2017 is the third and final year of our current contract. An opportunity exists to extend two years.

Alumni Night at the Lexington Legends was hosted by Alumni Relations.

Student Engagement and Campus Life Committee:

Endowment Update – Equities and Bonds: Betty Wrap, Fifth Third Bank, provided an update.

Housing Update: One residence hall has been offline due to mold issues and is expected back online this fall. Comprehensive data indicates occupancy is at 79%. Summer conferences housed 201 students.

Dr. Thomas Calhoun will monitor the progress of the Student Handbook revision.

Homecoming 2017: Student activities will proceed as usual. Major activities will begin on Thursday.

Student Government Association: Concerns have been raised about students and their eligibility. An update will be provided in September.

===== PAGE 13 =====
### VI. President's Report:

June 19, 2017;

Preparation has begun for SACSCOC in 2019. The Faculty Handbook, tenure, promotion, and reappointment must be fully compliant upon SACS review.

The Academic Deans structure needs to be revisited.

Facilities Planning: The University is in need of a natural gas pipeline Right-of-Way and we have no master plan. Discussion with the Frankfort Chamber of Commerce revealed there is a wonderful project called Walk by Frankfort, which also requires an easement and we have begun the process.

Going forward, Board members will receive a dashboard that allows tracking of graduation rates, enrollment, and other data with accuracy.

The Mission and Strategic Plan will be revised. The Strategic Plan will be modified to align with new divisions.

Additional items:

1. Supporting adult education, GED, Frankfort Independent and Franklin County schools, and charter schools may present a more revenue inspiring approach to dual enrollment.

2. Considering a baccalaureate commencement will provide an avenue to support religious freedom legislation.

### VII. Closed Session:

Action Item: Regent Dalton Jantzen moved to go into Closed Session to discuss personnel matters, pending litigation, and property acquisition pursuant to KRS 61.810 (Kentucky Open Meetings Act). The motion passed. The Board went into closed session at 4:35 p.m.

RE: Crystal deGregory, Ph.D.

Director, Kentucky State University Atwood Institute

Endorsement of Petition for Tenure and Promotion

Distinguished Kentucky State University Regents:

It is indeed an honor for me to submit for your consideration the exceptional credentials of Dr. Crystal deGregory, newly appointed Director of the Kentucky State University Atwood Institute, as I request your approval of her candidacy for tenure as an Associate Professor of History in the Department of Behavioral and Social Sciences. Dr. deGregory exemplifies excellence in the higher education tripartite areas of research, teaching and service. This is uniquely evidenced in the pages of her very impressive curriculum via which chronicles her prolific works published in peer-reviewed scholarly journals. It is also demonstrated through her efforts as the founder and editor-in-chief of the HBCU Journal of Research and Culture, a seminal work which she aptly described as an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal offering a wide-range of scholarly articles highlighting historically black colleges and universities throughout the nation.

Dr. deGregory is a very proud HBCU graduate having earned her Bachelor of Arts in History, magna cum laude, from the historic Fisk University. She also holds both a Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy in History from Vanderbilt University where she conducted advanced studies pertaining to black colleges and universities. Additionally, she is nationally-recognized for her ground-breaking entrepreneurial venture in creating the preeminent HBCU story, which she succinctly characterizes as an advocacy initiative preserving, presenting, and promoting inspiring stories of HBCUs past and present, for their future.

A highly sought—after national speaker, deGregory has lectured on a wide range of topics including history, culture, and education especially, HBCUs. She is also a regular contributor to national publications including though not limited to, the HBCU Digest, The New York Times, USA Today and The Tennessee. I submit to you a candidate well-deserving of the privilege of tenure at our very own Kentucky State University, for she truly embodies the creed we hold dear, “In All Things Excellence!” I unequivocally endorse her candidacy and humbly request your approval.

“Nashville's Black Clandestine Schools.” New York Times. February 17, 2015. Blog.

This op-ed was published as a part of Disunion series by the New York Times which commemorated the

sesquicentennial of the Civil War. More than one-hundred-and-fifty years ago, Americans went to war with

themselves. Disunion revisited and reconsidered America’s most perilous period — using contemporary accounts,

diaries, images and historical assessments to follow the Civil War as it unfolded. This essay explores the founding,

growth, and eventual decline of Nashville’s clandestine pre-Civil War schools.

“The Relationships of Revolution: Martin Luther King, Jr., the Civil Rights Movement and Political Change in the Bahamas”…“breaks new ground in the scholarship on Martin Luther King, Jr., for no scholar has written in such compelling terms about King’s meaning for people in the Commonwealth of the Bahamas. As one who has thoroughly researched both the path toward nationalism in the Bahamas and the struggle for civil rights in America, deGregory is eminently qualified to write with authority about these issues. Needless to say, her chapter adds yet another piece to the puzzle that was and is the global King.” – Lewis V. Baldwin, Editor

# STATEMENT OF TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

“Those who care, TEACH.” I am a firm believer that the art of good teaching is a balancing act which requires more than knowledge and information sharing. In fact, good teaching incorporates imagination and innovation as well as interest, focus, and self-discipline—many of the skills required for good learning. Mastering each skill demands that both students and teachers care about the subject matter; it requires the critical confrontation of subjects with passion and integrity. Amid meeting curriculum standards, setting classroom expectations in syllabi, and ensuring that the demands of each are met, good teaching becomes an increasingly difficult task.

Teachers are called to care about the challenges students face in the classroom and beyond, including the new aspects of their burgeoning college lives. From what I recall of my own experiences, the roles and responsibilities of being time-manager, bill-payer, and perhaps most ironically, “curfew-setter” and “curfewkeeper” can be particularly daunting. Not unlike students, teachers are also often overwhelmed by the demands of teaching—not to mention those of our own personal lives. When we feel overwhelmed, the care so critical to what we do is threatened. This is especially true when students seem incorrigible, making it easy for a teacher to become disenchanted with his or her efforts.

When I teach, I do so with care, and realistic expectations. While I’m happy with high cumulative scores and I am ecstatic about the turnaround students make during a semester, I realize it takes some students longer than others. I’m not an investment banker whose success can be determined by the results yielded at the end of a fiscal year. I’m a teacher. I regularly remind myself that the successes of teachers go far beyond cumulative scores. The difference a teacher makes in a student’s life can take a lifetime to be realized by both student and teacher.

I believe it is a good teacher's job not only to teach, but to ensure students learn. Grade consciousness traps some educators in "model" teaching. For years, the benefits of "teacher-centered" instruction versus "student-centered" instruction have been pitted against each other as effective models for our ever-changing teaching and learning environments. My experiences, however, have taught me to teach in whatever model necessary to ensure that my students learn. With that in mind, I employ both visual and kinesthetic methods in classroom instruction. I believe in the merits of service-learning education and I encourage my students to become involved in non-traditional learning activities like blogging, class debate, and role-playing exercises which allows students to better analyze content.

I believe good teaching is the engagement of teachers and students. Teaching is an exercise of mutual respect in an environment free from absolutes, judgment, and persecution. The college classroom is the last likely setting in which students will have the opportunity to grow through accomplishments as well as through mistakes, without suffering irreparable harm. I encourage students to become involved in classroom discussions, discovering who they are, questioning what they traditionally accepted as truth, and to believe that they matter! In my classroom, decorum affords students the freedom to explore a wide array of themes, challenge content, consider context, as well as share their ideas and opinions in an atmosphere geared towards intellectual, professional, and personal growth.

I believe just as teachers impart knowledge to their students, students help to enrich their teachers' lives. The college classroom provides a great atmosphere for student-teaching, peer-learning and teacher enrichment. Whether it's keeping me abreast of the latest music, fashion trend, or popular jargon, my students are always up to the task. They challenge me to keep my lectures both fun and informative, infused with the vibrancy appropriate for my mostly millennial audiences. Many of my undergraduate experiences can seem like distant memories of people, places, and things that I have outgrown. Fortunately, my students always offset the "knowledge gap" with the realities of their lives. As I witness their successes, the difference I see in their lives enriches my own life beyond measure.

Dr. Thompson:

After review of Dr. Buddhi R. Gyawali's dossier, it is my recommendation that Dr. Gyawali is granted tenure and promotion as an Associate Professor in the College of Agriculture, Food Science, and Sustainable Systems at Kentucky State University.

Dr. Gyawali, who has served the University since 2012, has presented a dossier detailing exemplary teaching and service to the institution as well as a robust research agenda of national and international recognition. His recommendations from then Dean, Tefari Tsegaye, as well as James Tidwell, the Chair of the College's Tenure and Promotion Committee, recommend Dr. Gyawali highly and without reservation.

I am most impressed with the comprehensive care with which he compiled his supporting documents, and this mirrors the contents within. Thus, my review of his dossier concurs with the forwarded recommendations to grant him both tenure and promotion.

Sincerely,

RE: Yolanda M. Powell-Young

Chair, Kentucky State University School of Nursing

Endorsement of Petition for Tenure and Promotion

Esteemed Kentucky State University Regents;

Dr. Yolanda M. Powell-Young is the new visionary and transformative leader of the Kentucky State University School of Nursing. With an impeccable reputation for excellence in academic and administrative nursing, she has achieved national recognition as a Nursing Scholar whose accolades include her selection as the 2016 Recipient of the National Black Nurses Association, Inc. Trailblazer Award, 2017 recognition as Best Reviewer for the Research in Nursing and Health Journal, and also 2017 appointment to the Editorial Board of the Journal of Palliative Care and Nursing. She will indeed be a tremendous asset to the School of Nursing and the university overall.

To her new role, she brings a wealth of experiences from a vast array of service in the nursing profession encompassing higher education as well as diverse clinical institutions. From her early days in nursing as a clinician to her recent accomplishments in academic nursing and also nursing administration, Dr. Powell-Young has so much to offer the students, faculty, and staff of the KSU School of Nursing. She is uniquely poised to take the school to the highest levels by capitalizing on the strong foundation already established and launching the programs to even greater heights.

As delineated on her curriculum vita, Dr. Powell has exemplified excellence across the board including her Nursing Licensures, Board Certifications, Academic Appointments, Clinical Appointments, Academic Leadership, Nursing Service, Academic Committees and Councils, Clinical Committees and Councils, Professional Memberships and Boards, as well as numerous successes in Research and Sponsored Programs generating revenue in excess of a million dollars. I submit to you that the cumulative impact of her extensive contributions to the advancement of excellence in higher education research, teaching, and service qualify her for appointment as a tenured Professor in the Kentucky State University School of Nursing. Your support and approval of this submission would be greatly appreciated.

Title: Programs to Reduce Obesity in High Obesity Areas

The major goal of this intervention program is to provide and engage the residents of selected Mississippi counties disparately impacted by overweight or obesity through environmental- and behavioral-change resources aimed at preventing and/or reducing overweight and obesity prevalence that could positively influence community-wide behavioral changes that may (a) decrease the number of new cases of obesity among adults and children in identified Mississippi counties; (b) limit the number of new cases of obesity among adults and children in identified Mississippi counties; and (c) increase regular physical activity. Knowledge gleaned from this intervention program could be used to create and implement strategies that prevent disease and improve public health.

Dear Dr. Shen,

I have completed my review of the necessary documentation and recommendation made by Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs, Dr. Candice Love Jackson, for your application for tenure.

I am pleased to inform you I will be supporting your application for tenure and promotion as a Professor in the College of Professional Studies, Division of Computer Science at Kentucky State University. The recommendation will be forwarded to the Board of Regents for action at their next regularly scheduled board meeting. You will be notified after that meeting of the action taken by the Board of Regents.

Any questions you might have should be answered by referring to the Faculty Handbook where the specific university policies dealing with tenure are outlined. Please use those policies and procedures as your guide.

Sincerely,

Dr. Thompson:

After review of Dr. Chi Shen's dossier, it is my recommendation that Dr. Shen is granted promotion to Full Professor in the College of Professional Studies, Division of Computer Science at Kentucky State University.

Dr. Shen, who has served the University since 2004, has presented a dossier detailing exemplary teaching and service to the institution as well as a robust research agenda of national and international recognition. Her recommendations from then Dean, Gashaw Lake; then Dean Samuel Oleka of the College of Arts and Sciences; Ashok Kumar, then Chair of the University Tenure and Promotion Committee; several colleagues internal and external to Kentucky State University, and former students all recommended her for promotion in 2014.

Dr. Shen's initial application for promotion was halted due to the moratorium placed on tenure and promotion at that time. While the moratorium is still halted for promotion, I agree with your initial assessment that it is in the best interest to review those dossiers that were in progress.

As well, I have been impressed with her work with students in the classroom and with her as the Interim Chair of the Division of Computer Science. As Chair, she maintains a thriving program and one of our few graduate programs.

Thus, my review of her dossier concurs with the forwarded recommendations to grant her promotion to Full Professor.

Sincerely,

<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="imgs/img_in_image_box_315_2620_859_2753.jpg" alt="Image" width="21%" /></div>

Re: Dr. Chi Shen, promotion candidate

I am submitting this memo to you regarding Dr. Chi Shen's application for promotion to the rank of Full Professor. Review of this candidate's dossier was conducted in accordance with University policies and procedures set forth in the Faculty Handbook (Promotion and Tenure2.6.1.1.4). The Unit Tenure and Promotion Committee from the School of Business & computer Science recognized her years of diligent service to the University and her impressive record of teaching effectiveness which they feel qualifies her for promotion. Her overall ratings for effective in the classroom are well above average. Dr. Chi Shen has proven herself to be an enormous asset to the School of Business and Computer Science

## Teaching:

For the last ten years, Dr. Chi Shen has taught several courses in computer Science. Her student rating scores and written evaluations have been above average and quite impressive. The overwhelming majority of students have high regard for her although the subject matter is often thought to be too difficult. She is generally regarded as fair and willing to work with Students in need of additional help outside the classroom.

## Research:

Dr. Chi Shen is one of the few published professors in the School of Business & Computer Science. To her credit, she has had articles accepted for publication in a refereed journal and written many grants which have been successfully funded by external agencies. She has also made presentations at professional conferences. His performance in the area of publication is above average.

===== PAGE 68 =====
## Service:

Dr. Shi Shen has tirelessly served the university in different roles as Committee Chair or member in addition to her teaching duties. Her dedicated service has won the respect of fellow faculty members, and she has thus become a highly valued member of the university community.

I am therefore recommending her without a reservation to the rank of full professor.

Subject: Dr. Chi Shen: Application for Promotion to the rank of Professor

Dear Dr. Lake:

The Unit Committee for Tenure and Promotion recommends that Dr. Chi Shen be promoted to the rank of Professor in the Division of Computer and Technical Science with votes 5-0 in favor of granting promotion to the rank of a Professor in the Division of Computer Science. Committee notes that dossier is very professionally prepared. She has a very collegial relationship with the rest of the members of the division.

The requirement that a faculty must have 10 years of teaching experience in order to be promoted to the rank of Professor was discussed. Dr. Shen is in her 10th year of teaching at KSU. The committee feels that by the time she will be promoted, she would have completed 10 years.

Dr. Thompson:

After review of Dr. Tamara Sluss's dossier, it is my recommendation that Dr. Sluss is granted promotion to Full Professor in the College of Arts and Sciences, Division of Mathematics and Sciences at Kentucky State University.

Dr. Sluss, who has served the University since 2005, has presented a dossier detailing exemplary teaching and service to the institution as well as a robust research agenda of national and international recognition. Her recommendations from then Dean, Samuel Oleka; Dr. Fariba Bigdel-Jahed, Chair of the Division of Mathematics and Sciences, and Dr. Robert Mania, Chair of the University Tenure and Promotion Committee, all recommended her for promotion in 2014.

Dr. Sluss's initial application for promotion was halted due to the moratorium placed on tenure and promotion at that time. While the moratorium is still halted for promotion, I agree with your initial assessment that it is in the best interest to review those dossiers that were in progress.

As well, I have been impressed with her work with students in the classroom and through experiential learning activities through the Whitney Young Center for Global Leadership.

Thus, my review of her dossier concurs with the forwarded recommendations to grant her promotion to Full Professor.

Sincerely,

### A Letter of Recommendation for Dr. Tamara Sluss' Application for Promotion to The Rank of Full Professor in the Division of Mathematics and Sciences

I am delighted to write this letter of recommendation for Dr. Tamara Sluss who is a trusted teacher, scholar and students' adviser to majors in Biology in the Division of Mathematics and Sciences Program. Dr. Tamara Sluss is currently an Associate Professor in the Division of Mathematics and Sciences at Kentucky State University (KSU).

I have known Dr. Sluss since she arrived at KSU ten years ago to teach biology in the Division of Mathematics and Sciences. I have known and observed her as a teacher, researcher, students' adviser and member of several committees at the divisional, college and university levels for the entire number of years she has served here. My capacity as Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and these number of years of observing and knowing her have given me the privilege to write this letter of recommendation for her promotion to the rank of Full Professor.

Her Dossier presents evidence of her accomplishments in three major areas of teaching effectiveness, research, creative and scholarly activities and community service both at the university and the local community levels. Since she joined the KSU faculty and community, she has come to be respected by students, faculty, staff, and administrators within and outside the University in the three areas I have identified.

Dr. Sluss' curriculum show that she possesses strong level of academic preparation, depth of intellectual strength and volume of knowledge that not only distinguishes her in her area of expertise but also in other areas of the academic profession. Her student-faculty evaluations clearly demonstrate that she is a valuable asset to the program, the division and College of Arts and Sciences, and therefore, an excellent teacher. As an able grant proposal writer, she has made good contributions to the University's overall revenue generation efforts. She has grown in the teaching

Re: Promotion Evaluation: Dr. Tamara Sluss





<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="imgs/img_in_image_box_1959_902_2404_1078.jpg" alt="Image" width="17%" /></div>


I have reviewed Dr. Sluss's dossier which she submitted along with her application for promotion to the rank of full professor, the letters of recommendation by the eligible unit faculty members and the recommendation letter submitted by the Unit Tenure and Promotion Committee.

The majority of the faculty members whose evaluations were solicited by the Chairperson and the Unit Tenure and Promotion Committee supported Dr. Sluss's application for promotion to the rank of full professor.

Teaching Effectiveness (Professional Competence):

The evaluation letters recognize and commend Dr. Sluss's knowledge in her discipline, her contribution to the curriculum development and biology education, student advising and research. The Unit Tenure and Promotion Committee members have accurately addressed Dr. Sluss's teaching effectiveness and I concur with the committee's evaluation of Dr. Sluss's teaching effectiveness. Dr. Sluss contributed to the biology instruction and curriculum development by developing a variety of undergraduate and graduate level courses, teaching for and serving on the board of Cooperative Center for Study Abroad, supervising undergraduate research for several biology majors, advising and teaching the biology capstone courses.

In terms of teaching, curriculum development, outreach activities, working with student and faculty, Dr. Sluss is an asset to the Division of Mathematics and Sciences and the University.

Scholarly and Creative Activity:

Dr. Sluss has published four articles in peer-reviewed journals since her promotion to associate professor. Her work on the funded grant projects has resulted in several conference presentations, and undergraduate research activities which provided students the opportunity to present their results at various conferences. Dr. Sluss's research includes student learning component which enabled her to mentor fourteen undergraduate and four graduate research.

I agree with the Unit T&P Committee that Dr. Sluss presented adequate evidence in this area.

===== PAGE 87 =====
## Service:

Dr. Sluss has contributed to the collegial governance of the university by serving on several university, senate, and divisional committees. Currently Dr. Sluss serves as the biology area coordinator. In the short period of time as the biology coordinator, Dr. Sluss has managed to lead the biology team to develop course SLOs, SLO matrices, review SACS Compliance Report, review the biology articulation agreements, and search for funds to purchase microscopes and other scientific equipment which cannot be purchased by laboratory fees. She has led other committees such as MASC Scholarship Committee and the Recruitment/Retention Committee. Dr. Sluss is involved in a number of community services. The high quality of her community service is evidenced by the letter of recommendation from Dr. Judith Li.

I have to note that Dr. Sluss had not included a number of student evaluations in the dossier unintentionally. I did not notice that when checking the dossier and signing the check list. After the Unit Committee brought this to my attention, Dr. Sluss found the student evaluations and provided a copy to be reviewed by the Committee. The Committee decided not to review or allow the inclusion of the student evaluations in the dossier. I did review the student evaluations and included them in the green folder with the Chair's documents.

On the basis of my evaluation of Dr. Sluss's dossier, I recommend Dr. Sluss for promotion to the rank of full Professor of Biology in the Division of Mathematics and Sciences.

Tenure and Promotion Committee

RE: Dr. Tamara Sluss's Application for Promotion to Professor

The Divisional Tenure and Promotion Committee voted 3 to 1 to recommend Dr. Sluss be promoted to Professor. The committee considered the three areas of responsibilities for faculty: Research and Scholarly Activity, Service, and Teaching.

Concerning Research and Scholarly Activity Dr. Sluss has published four articles in peer-reviewed journals since her promotion to associate professor, giving her a total of seven peer-reviewed publications. In addition, Dr. Sluss has been actively involved in the writing of grants and she has a number of these grants funded. She has also included a large number of KSU students in her research projects or mentored projects of their design (14 undergraduates in BIO 410 and 4 MES graduate students capstone projects -- and counting). She has made ten presentations at conferences concerning her research, six of which occurred after her promotion to Associate Professor. She has attended 13 summer workshops which have added to her ecological knowledge and been applied in her courses, and she has led three summer workshops for middle and high school teachers. We feel that her research and scholarly activity easily satisfies the requirements to be promoted to Professor.

Concerning Service Dr. Sluss is active both at KSU and outside the university. This includes being the unit coordinator for biology, the division scholarship committee chair, a member of the recruitment and retention committee, and she serves as the faculty advisor for the Green Society at KSU. She has a long history of service to the Faculty Senate and its Committees although she is currently not a member. Until recently, she served on the board of Cooperative Center for Study Abroad as one of two KSU representatives. Outside the university, Dr. Sluss is involved in a number of activities which share her expertise with the community. She is currently the Vice-President of the Kentucky Conservation Committee, a member of the Salt River Watershed Watch, and a member of the Education and Diversity group of the Society for Freshwater Science. We feel her service to KSU and beyond qualifies her for promotion to Professor.

Concerning Teaching Dr. Sluss has gone above and beyond most biology faculty in terms of adding to our curriculum. She developed a popular non-majors course (BIO 103) which this semester she has put online, two biology elective lecture/lab courses (BIO 416, BIO 417) each of which is utilized by other units (Aquaculture and AFE) and are cross-listed as graduate/undergraduate courses, an online graduate-level course (ENV 502) for the Masters of Environmental Science program, and a course for students to receive credit for study abroad as a biology elective (BIO 319). Additionally, she has developed and taught three separate courses for CCSA. Dr. Sluss' mentoring of BIO 410

===== PAGE 89 =====
students and MES graduate students mentioned above is a huge component of her teaching. Additionally, as the instructor of BIO 401 she spends a tremendous amount of time going over the formal seminars required of that course with each individual student. She has received numerous ratings of “exceeds expectations” from peer evaluations. Her student evaluations were usually slightly above the departmental mean, statements from students were primarily positive, and she addressed negative comments in her dossier. It was noted that a number of evaluations appeared to be missing from the portfolio although both Dr. Sluss and the chair, Dr. Bigdeli indicated there presence on the dossier checklist. The majority of the committee felt that her teaching evaluations were acceptable for promotion to professor, but the missing evaluations were the reason one member voted no.

To repeat the committee has voted 3 to 1 to recommend Dr. Tamara Sluss for promotion from Associate Professor to Professor.

Re: Promotion evaluation for Mrs. Tamara Sluss PhD, Associate Professor of Biology.

Dear Dr. Bigdeli:

I am writing this recommendation with regard to Dr. Tamara Sluss's application for Promotion. My comments are based on the information I gathered earlier from her Portfolio kept in the office of the MASC. I have known Dr. Sluss as a Biology colleague after she joined the MASC as an Assistant Professor of Biology in 2005.

Dr. Sluss got this tenure track position in 2005 and defended her PhD thesis in the same year. Prior to obtain the terminal degree, Dr. Sluss taught biology courses at Jefferson Community College while working for her PhD. Now at KSU she is teaching both major and non-major courses such as Ecology and Life Science courses. She was supporting summer program for school students. She taught a course abroad, and coordinating Biology unit.

Dr. Sluss has been active in research. She collaborated with a chemistry and physics professors at MASC and while conducting ecological studies with undergraduate students. She is enthusiastic and involved in advising our Biology students. She served in various committees both at division and unit levels. She also served in the university committees such as Faculty Senate.

As a colleague and recently got promoted to full professor in the biology unit, I believe Dr. Sluss can also hold the academic and life-pressure and work towards our student's progress. Based on her number of years of experience in teaching, research and service at this HBCU, I believe she could be a suitable candidate for the promotion. Hence I support Dr. Tamara Sluss's promotion to professor.

Thank you.

Sincerely

Dear Dr. Bigdeli.

It is my pleasure to enthusiastically support the promotion of Dr. Tamara Sluss, who is an invaluable member of our mentoring program for the Society for Freshwater Science (SFS). I met Tamara at an annual meeting of our society when she answered a general invitation for a Diversity Workshop where we discussed ways in which we might recruit students from under-represented groups into our discipline. This had been a dilemma our society struggled with for years. At last we had the right combination of youthful faculty, and following that workshop we developed a wonderfully successful recruitment initiative for undergraduates we named "Instars."

Instars gets a small sum from our Board of Directors (about $10,000 per year) that provides

travel and meeting expenses for undergrads who are chosen for the program, but our

faculty effort is entirely volunteer. Thus it requires a dedication and spirit of service to our

students and our science that Tamara has shown with great energy and enthusiasm. I co-

chair our small organizing committee, that started with 4 faculty, and now consists of 6

members. We have grown the program from 6 instars (in 2009) to 16 undergrads and 8

graduate mentors annually. That's 48 under-served students we've recruited in five years!

From the beginning of our efforts, Tamara initiated and continues a communication network for applicants and successful candidates. Her adept skills with social media, particularly Facebook, have been invaluable for getting out messages about the program, organizing travel plans, and keeping us in touch with the students during the meeting and in follow-up activities. Our students come from all over the country, and a fledging program like ours requires careful documentation of participation and participant evaluations. These are also records Tamara collects; these not only add to the students' learning experience but they are also critical to successful ongoing funding for the program. I understand from our conversations that her ease with social media and personal touch with students are integral to her work on campus as well. Undoubtedly her experience with boosting scholarship and internship participation on your campus has enhanced what she can do with our Instars.

I remember that the Diversity Workshop was Tamara's first exposure to our society. She was understandably tentative at that first meeting, but was eager to participate. I've enjoyed watching her confidence grow as she takes on increasingly more significant responsibilities. Our meetings move around the country from year to year, so balancing professional and family duties with attendance at our national meetings is undoubtedly a challenge for her. Yet she enthusiastically finds ways to engage with the students and help us bring together each year's activities. When she is able to attend in person, she

===== PAGE 94 =====
takes personal interest in our students, and seeks to make their experience at the big sometimes overwhelming, meeting, a good one. These are concrete ways that demonstrate her strong commitment to under-served students.

We are lucky to have Tamara as part of our team: her hard work and sincere compassion will certainly increase the diversity and quality of young scientists in our discipline. With her strong organizing skills, leadership talents, and deep commitment to students I believe she represents your department and institution well in this national and international arena. If you need any further information, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely.

Dear Members of the Tenure and Promotion review committees, Chair Fariba Bigdeli-Jahed, Dean Sam Oleka:

It is my pleasure to support my colleague Dr. Tamara Sluss in her bid for the rank of full Professor at Kentucky State University. She has been working full time at KSU since the Fall 2005 term, so this will be her tenth year at KSU. In that time, Tamara has amassed many outstanding qualifications in teaching, service, and scholarly activity that make her worthy of consideration of this promotion. Documentation is important for any review such as this, I hope this letter is helpful to those who discuss her qualifications for this prestigious title. Since I have reviewed Tamara's professional accomplishments in her application for tenure and promotion in 2010, I will cite items for which I have seen documentation. I've indicated items supported with documentation with an asterisk(*). Tamara is also humble and collegial, which adds much more to these accomplishments.

Teaching. Dr. Sluss has provided ample evidence of her excellence in teaching including very favorable student-written teaching evaluations for non-major courses such as BIO 101-Q6 and a major course BIO 316. Recently, Dr. Sluss has worked with the AWA (Academics with Attitude) program for Q sections of BIO 101 requiring regular meetings with other AWA staff. She has consistently performed at the level of exceeding expectations according to several divisional benchmarks as cited below.

## 1 ) Developing new courses/lab/programs

Tamara has developed several brand new courses at the undergraduate and graduate level that hadn't existed prior to her arrival at KSU. Many of these courses take students beyond KSU's campus and give them plenty of memorable "hands on" experiences.

Population and Community Ecology (ENV 502) taught (Fall 2010*, Fall 2012* - now online). Environmental Biology (BIO 103) - Fall 2008*. Spring 2012* for non-majors. Aquatic Ecology with lab (BIO 413/ENV 513) - Fall 2007*, Fall 2011* Ecological Field Methods with outdoor lab (BIO 417) - Fall 2012* Conservation Biology in Belize - (two-week study abroad program in Belize) Summer 2007.* Students visited many sites, and they seemed to enjoy the course thoroughly.* Study Abroad England/Ireland - fermentation processes. Winter 2011.*

In addition, Tamara had pivotal influence on two brand new degree programs and was very actively involved in teaching in the latter (until it was taken over by the new College of AFE):

Biotechnology Program (B.S.) Development Committee – 2005-07

Masters of Environmental Studies (developed with Dr. Kazi Javed) – 2008-09*.

Since I am not reviewing her entire portfolio for this promotion, I cannot definitively determine if she meets all the criteria for promotion as outlined in the Faculty Handbook. The one criterion that we always debate in my previous experiences on various Tenure & Promotion Committees is the peer-reviewed work. I have alerted Dr. Sluss about this, and requested she provide evidence to the Committee that her articles were indeed peer-reviewed, such as printing out article criteria from the various journals in which she has published. Once this list of “peer-reviewed” publications is definitive, it will be up to the Committees to determine if this is a “substantial” body of work (using Faculty Handbook language) considering others who have achieved the prestigious rank of full Professor.

In summary, Tamara is a splendid colleague, teacher and advisor of very high caliber. She is an active scholar and willingly serves KSU in many other capacities. Thank you for your careful consideration of my esteemed colleague for this promotion.

Sincerely.

# PROFESSIONAL INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL EXPERIENCES

## Israel

Purpose: The primary objective of the journey was to promote unity and diversity. I served as a member of a diverse team, which included: human relations professionals, politicians, educators, community representatives, and clergy persons. We engaged in multiple collaborative ventures to advance cross-cultural understanding in the public and private sector locally, nationally, and internationally. While in Israel, we met with Israeli and Palestinian political and military leaders to learn more about the issues that cause conflict and confrontation among the people. We also toured numerous historic sites throughout Israel and the surrounding geographic areas.

## Spain

Purpose: On this journey, I visited Barcelona to explore different opportunities for international studies which could be made available to our university students and faculty. I evaluated the potential for development of joint multi-disciplinary undergraduate and graduate academic programs between our institutions. While there, I participated in multiple strategic planning meetings with faculty and administrators from throughout The University of Barcelona. Additionally, I participated in multiple touring engagements and university/community events.

400 East Main Street

Dear Dr. Ulrich,

I have completed my review of the necessary documentation and recommendation made by Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs, Dr. Candice Love Jackson, for your application for tenure and promotion.

I am pleased to inform you I will be supporting your application for tenure as an Assistant Professor of Social Work in the School of Public Administration and Social work at Kentucky State University. However, I will not be making a recommendation for promotion to the rank of Associate Professor at this time. The recommendations will be forward to the Board of Regents for action at their April 21, 2017. You will be notified after meeting of the action taken by the Board of Regents.

Any questions you might have should be answered by referring to the Faculty Handbook where the specific university policies dealing with tenure and promotion are outlined. Please use those policies and procedures as your guide.

Sincerely,



<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="imgs/img_in_image_box_358_2325_1081_2484.jpg" alt="Image" width="28%" /></div>

### Dr. Thompson:

After a review of Dr. Stephen Ulrich's dossier, it is my recommendation that Dr. Ulrich is granted tenure as an Assistant Professor of Social Work in the School of Public Administration and Social Work.

Dr. Ulrich, who has served the University since 2009, has presented dossier detailing exemplary teaching and service to the institution, having served as the primary advisor to students in the program as well as the discipline coordinator. It was under his leadership that the Social Work program received reaffirmation of its accreditation by the Council on Social Work Education in 2010. He also has a demonstrated record of service on university committees.

His teaching evaluations remain consistent as meeting expectations by his peers; however, his students have consistently rated him highly in the student evaluation system. The included artifacts of student work evince their level of engagement in their courses and with the profession.

Though Dr. Ulrich also applied for Promotion to Associate Professor, I am not recommending Promotion at this time. He has not developed a robust publication agenda or presentation history, and while I recognize that Kentucky State University is a teaching institution, there must be some effort to continue engagement in the discipline. Dr. Ulrich did published a book in 2010 through Lambert Academic Publishing; however, this is not a peer-reviewed or recognized academic press.

Sincerely,

<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="imgs/img_in_image_box_313_2397_1028_2566.jpg" alt="Image" width="28%" /></div>

Dr. Stephen Graham-Hill, Chair

School of Public Administration, Social Work, and Criminal Justice

Kentucky State University

Frankfort, KY 40601

Dear Dr. Graham-Hill:

The Unit Committee of the School of Public Administration, Social Work, and Criminal Justice consists of Christopher Daniel (Chair), Arthur Hayden, Reginald Thomas, and Jean Smith. The Committee met today and voted 4-0 (four to zero) in favor of granting Stephen Ulrich both tenure and also promotion to the rank of Associate Professor. The Committee reached this decision after reviewing Dr. Ulrich's dossier and considering each of the Faculty Handbook's tenure and promotion requirements.

Dr. Ulrich has completed a Ph.D. in Social Work from the University of Louisville. His has completed five years of full-time teaching experience here at Kentucky State University (2009-2014). He has also served as an adjunct faculty member at several other institutions, including Spaulding University (on-campus and on-line), Western Kentucky University (on-line), Ashford University (on-line), and Brescia University (on-line).

The Committee’s members were impressed by the quality of Dr. Ulrich’s teaching. His course syllabi have been very thorough, providing students with helpful structure. Formal evaluations of his teaching by faculty peers, administrators, and students have been favorable. More specifically, in three of his classes all students “Strongly Agreed” with the statement “Instructor demonstrates overall effectiveness.” In other classes that submitted evaluations most (or all) students either “Agreed” or “Strongly Agreed” that their instructor, Dr. Ulrich, demonstrated “Overall Effectiveness”.

The Committee reviewed Stephen Ulrich's extraordinary record of service. As community service he has been a consultant to the State of Kentucky's HIV/AIDS Advocacy Committee. As university service Dr. Ulrich has served on both the Faculty Senate and the Institutional Review Board. And, within his academic unit he has revitalized the Social Work Program. As Social Work Coordinator he has obtained re-accreditation for that Program, which had been experiencing difficulties. Also, due largely to his actions the number of Social Work majors has doubled, increasing from 42 to 85.

Additionally, working closely with former faculty member Amanda Sokan (Department of Nursing), Dr. Ulrich developed a social work oriented Master of Gerontology Program. That promising new program

Kentucky

===== PAGE 141 =====
has been granted approval by the Kentucky Council on Post-Secondary Education (CPE). However, due to University level budgetary constraints that new KSI program has not yet been initiated. Once it is implemented, that program developed by Dr. Ulrich could grow rapidly. There are not yet any other Master of Gerontology programs offered in the mid-western United States.

Dr. Ulrich also has devoted considerable effort to his professional development while serving here at Kentucky State. Leading the Bachelor of Social Work re-accreditation self-study process improved his professional knowledge. Additionally, while serving KSU he has made two presentations to professional bodies outside of the university and has participated in four different Social Work professional conferences and/or workshops.

The Committee reviewed Dr. Ulrich's record of scholarship. While the Committee recognizes that Stephen Ulrich's record of scholarship can be enhanced in the future, its members are simultaneously very impressed by his departmental level service efforts. He has brought a program that was near extinction in 2009 to success. Dr. Ulrich has enabled the Social Work Program to become re-accredited. And, through effective teaching and advising, Dr. Ulrich has personally helped many students progress successfully to graduation.

Based on its evaluation of Dr. Stephen Ulrich's teaching, professional development, scholarship, and service, this Unit Promotion and Tenure Committee voted 4-0 (four to zero) in favor of his being granted both tenure and promotion to rank of Associate Professor.

Sincerely;

Christopher Daniel

Re: Dr. Stephen Ulrich, Tenure and Promotion

I am submitting this memo to you regarding Dr. Stephen Ulrich's application for promotion to the rank of Associate Professor and application for Tenure. Review of this candidate's dossier was conducted in accordance with university policies and procedures set forth in the Faculty Handbook (Promotion and Tenure 2.1.533; 2.1.6 and 2.6.2.1; 2.6.1.4). The Unit Tenure and Promotion Committee from the School of Public Administration/Social Work/Criminal Justice recognized his five years of diligent service to the university and his impressive record of teaching effectiveness which they feel qualifies him for promotion. His overall ratings for effectiveness in the classroom are well above average. Dr. Ulrich has proven himself to be an enormous asset to the Division of Social Work which is in the unit of the School of Public Administration, Criminal Justice

## Teaching:

For the last five years, Dr. Ulrich has taught several courses in Social Work. His student rating scores and written evaluations have been above average and quite impressive. The overwhelming majority of students have high regard for him as professional and approachable. He is generally regarded as fair and willing to work with students in need of additional help outside the classroom. I have attended many of his lectures at random and he is always on time, prepared and willing to accept questions. He is an exemplary faculty member that provokes students to critically think, and respects students to feel free to ask questions.

===== PAGE 144 =====
## Research & Service:

Dr. Ulrich is one of the few faculty members who has put off his research for rebuilding of the Social Work unit, to resurrect and gain reaccreditation by his leadership. In addition to teaching he has tirelessly served the University in many crucial roles such as recruiting students and developing the Master of Gerontology program.

Dr. Ulrich's dedicated service has won the respect of fellow faculty members, and he has thus become a highly valued member of the university community.

In accordance with the University policy and the Unit Tenure and Promotion Committee, I recommend with no reservation, the tenure and promotion of Dr. Stephen Ulrich to the rank of Associate Professor based on his merits in the area of teaching, effectiveness and general service to the University, most notably and particularly, to the Social Work faculty members.

# MEMORANDUM

www.kysu.edu

DATE: August 25, 2017

TO: Kentucky State University Board of Regents

FROM: Debbie G. Thomas, Ph.D. Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs

RE: Proposed Academic Affairs Restructuring

The proposed model of Academic Affairs Restructuring is undergirded by the established Kentucky State University creed of, In All Things Excellence and is directly guided by the extant leadership of our President, the current University Strategic Plan, the Faculty Handbook, and the Principles of Accreditation of the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. After careful analysis and evaluation of the previously-existing structure, it was determined that indeed a more strategically transformative model was needed to ensure that the Office of Academic Affairs successfully advances and sustains excellence in all academic programs, disciplines, departments, and divisions.

The resulting model is the comprehensive implementation of essential a centralized and decentralized leadership infrastructure including the following critical foci:

A. Centralized Leadership Structure

• Undergraduate Education and Faculty Affairs

• Graduate Studies and Academic Specialization

• Research and Sponsored Programs

Institutional Accountability and Accreditation

### B. Decentralized Distributed Leadership Structure

- College of Agriculture and Sciences

o Department of Agriculture and Environment

o Department of Aquaculture

o Department of Families and Nutrition

- College of Humanities and Social Services

o Department of Behavioral and Human Sciences

o Department of Mathematics and Science

o Department of Humanities

• College of Professional Studies

o Department of Business and Computer Science

o Department of Educational Studies

o Department of Government

## IN ALL THINGS EXCELLENCE

Kentucky State University is an equal educational and employment opportunity/affirmative action institution.

# Cohort Management Report (Prepared for the April Board Report)

## Success Coach

The Academic Advising Center staff is now responsible for cohort management. Each member of the cohort is assigned a Success Coach. A Success Coach is professional advisor responsible for monitoring the persistence, retention and graduation rates for a cohort of students (first-time, full-time students). Through UNV 101, UNV 102, individual meetings, small groups, interventions, workshops, and seminars, Success Coaches will be responsible for ensuring that all cognitive, metacognitive, and social, financial, and academic affecting retention and success are factors addressed from freshman to senior year. Coaches will also

<div style="text-align: center;">Figure 1 3:1 Advising Team Model</div>


ensure that all students are properly progressing in their career and professional school pathways. They are also responsible for re-enrollment campaigns for their cohorts in April-August and October-January.

Success Coaches regularly host cohort/class meetings with students to discuss:

1. Curriculum progression and registration information

2. Academic, personal or social hurdles that may impede progression

3. Institutional issues or concerns students may have

4. Student success strategies related to academics, graduate school and career.

However, that number is reduced to 3 when eliminating students with GPAs under 2.0 and outstanding balances over $6000. There are 5 students who have completed their degrees, 1 in Spring 2016 and 4 Fall 2016.

Kentucky State University

Subject: Fiscal Year 2018 Audit Plan

## Introduction

Enclosed is the fiscal year 2018 audit plan for the Office of Internal Audit. This outlines the activities where internal audit resources will be dedicated. Professional internal audit standards, as well as the Office of Internal Audit Charter, require the annual preparation of an audit plan. In accordance with protocol, this plan does require approval by the Board of Regents.

## Methodology

The framework for the methodology, and the actual process for developing the audit plan, is explained in the following.

## Framework

This plan was developed using a risk-based methodology. The methodology incorporates the COSO - Enterprise Risk Management framework. This is a risk model commonly used in the internal audit profession. This approach allows for the evaluation of institutional units as well as major business processes in a systematic, consistent framework. By using this approach, the Office of Internal Audit (OIA) is better able to dedicate resources that ensure Kentucky State University achieves its strategic goals and objectives.

===== PAGE 176 =====
The following details the process for developing the audit plan.

1. Identify Kentucky State University's Audit Universe. All audit units (e.g., programs, processes) for Kentucky State University were identified. These units constitute the audit universe for Kentucky State University. The identification was achieved using a variety of sources, including organizational charts, institutional knowledge, financial system data, enterprise policies and procedures, budgetary documents and input from key stakeholders.

• There were a total of 167 auditable units identified.

2. Stratify Audit Universe. Kentucky State University's audit universe was stratified to identify the units that pertain to the Office of Internal Audit and those that should be covered by other auditors (e.g., external, state, federal). The Office of Internal Audit's core service for each pertinent audit unit was determined.

The OIA's audit universe consists of 157 audit units.

3. Risk Assessment. The risk assessment approach is based on the COSO - Enterprise Risk Management framework. Eight different risk factors were used to evaluate each audit unit in the Office of Internal Audit's universe. The factors included items such as prior audit results, complexity of operations, and relevance to strategic objectives. The units were ranked as high, medium, or low risk.

- There were a total of 76 audit units ranked as high risk.

4. Identification of Major Risks. Kentucky State University's major risks, from an internal audit perspective, were identified. The identification of these risks helps ensure resources are allocated to the most critical areas and processes.

- The major risks identified are in Table 1 on the following page.

5. Office of Internal Audit Resources. The available resources (i.e., staff hours) for the Office of Internal Audit were determined. Available project hours were calculated after adjusting for staff's paid leave time, required training, and administrative tasks. The target utilization rate for audit staff is 78%, which is standard in the profession. The available resources were allocated by core service as illustrated in Chart 1.

===== PAGE 178 =====
<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="imgs/img_in_chart_box_758_406_2060_1253.jpg" alt="Image" width="51%" /></div>


6. Allocation of OIA Resources. The Office of Internal Audit's resources were allocated to each of the projects ranked as high risk. This was done in order to provide complete coverage of these projects.

- The audit cycle required to provide coverage of all high risk areas is approximately 15 years.

7. Audit Plan Completion. The final audit plan was developed by assigning the audit units (with OIA resources allocated) to a specific fiscal year. The capacity and capability of the Office of Internal Audit was evaluated to ensure the project can be performed. In some cases, such as Information Technology services, external consultants are required. In developing the final plan, the following factors were considered:

• Alignment with Kentucky State University's core strategic objectives

- Enterprise-wide processes and tasks

Mitigation of Kentucky State University's major risks

• Impact on service delivery efforts

- Coverage of all strategic objectives and Kentucky State University Departments

## Audit Plan

The fiscal year 2018 audit plan is presented in the following section of this document. It is important to note that the audit plan is a flexible document that is intended to allow for changes as circumstances warrant. While the Office of Internal Audit strives to follow the plan, unforeseen circumstances require the ability to act quickly and reallocate resources appropriately.

===== PAGE 179 =====
## Conclusion

The audit plan demonstrates the Office of Internal Audit's commitment to its mission of providing value added internal auditing services as well as its commitment to continuous improvement of services. These services ultimately help Kentucky State University achieve its core strategic objectives. In an effort to leverage resources to provide quality professional internal audit services, I have limited the scope of work to what can realistically be accomplished with the resources available.

If you have any questions, or wish to discuss any of these items in further detail, please let me know.

Sincerely,

Ingram Zuck

Management and the Board of Regents

Kentucky State University

400 East Main Street

Frankfort, Kentucky 40601

This letter confirms the arrangements for Crowe Horwath LLP ("Crowe" or "us" or "we" or "our") to provide the professional services discussed in this letter to Kentucky State University ("University" or "you", "your" or "Entity" or "Client") for the year ending June 30, 2017. The attached Crowe Engagement Terms is an integral part of this letter, and its terms are incorporated herein.

## AUDIT SERVICES

## Our Responsibilities

We will audit and report on the financial statements of the University, including the discretely presented component unit, Kentucky State University, Inc. (the Foundation), which collectively comprise the basic financial statements of the University for the period indicated.

In addition to our report on the financial statements, we plan to evaluate the presentation of the following supplementary information in relation to the financial statements as a whole, and to report on whether this supplementary information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

## • Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards

In addition to our report on the financial statements, we also plan to perform specified procedures in order to describe in our report whether the following required supplementary information is presented in accordance with applicable guidelines. However, we will not express an opinion or provide any assurance on this information due to our limited procedures.

• Management's Discussion and Analysis

• Schedule of the KSU's Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability

• Schedule of KSU's Contributions

The objective of the audit is the expression of an opinion on the financial statements. We will plan and perform the audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the standards for financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Those standards require that we obtain reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether caused by error or fraud, and that we report on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (as noted above), and on your compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of

===== PAGE 185 =====
Federal awards and on its internal controls as required for a Single Audit. Because of inherent limitations of an audit, together with the inherent limitations of internal control, an unavoidable risk that some material misstatements may not be detected exists, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with applicable standards. An audit is not designed to detect error or fraud that is immaterial to the financial statements.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment including the assessment of the risks that the financial statements could be misstated by an amount we believe would influence the financial statement users. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

In making our risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the University's internal control. However, we will communicate in writing to those charged with governance and management concerning any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in internal control relevant to the audit of the financial statements that we have identified during the audit. We will communicate to management other deficiencies in internal control identified during the audit that have not been communicated to management by other parties and that, in our professional judgment, are of sufficient importance to merit management's attention. We will also communicate certain matters related to the conduct of the audit to those charged with governance, including (1) fraud involving senior management, and fraud (whether caused by senior management or other employees) that causes a material misstatement of the financial statements, (2) illegal acts that come to our attention (unless they are clearly inconsequential) (3) disagreements with management and other significant difficulties encountered in performing the audit and (4) various matters related to the University's accounting policies and financial statements. Our engagement is not designed to address legal or regulatory matters; which matters should be discussed by you with your legal counsel.

We expect to issue a written report upon completion of our audit of the financial statements. Our report will be addressed to the Board of Regents of the University. Circumstances may arise in which it is necessary for us to modify our opinion, add an emphasis of matter or other matter paragraph, or withdraw from the engagement.

In addition to our report on the financial statements and supplemental information, we plan to issue the following reports:

Independent Auditor's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards — The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the University's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Independent Auditor's Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program and Report on Internal Control Over Compliance — The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

===== PAGE 186 =====
We will also perform tests of controls including testing underlying transactions, as required by the Uniform Guidance, to evaluate the effectiveness of the design and operation of controls that we consider relevant to preventing or detecting material noncompliance with compliance requirements applicable to each of your major federal awards programs. We will determine major programs in accordance with the Uniform Guidance. Our tests will be less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on these controls and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed. We will inform you of any deficiencies or other matters involving internal control, if any, as required by the Uniform Guidance.

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, we will also perform tests of your compliance with applicable laws, regulations, contracts and grants. However, because of the concept of reasonable assurance and because we will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk that material errors, irregularities, or illegal acts, including fraud or defalcations, may exist and not be detected by us. The objective of our audit of compliance relative to the financial statements will not be to provide an opinion on overall compliance with such provisions, and we will not express such an opinion. We will advise you, however, of any matters of that nature that come to our attention, unless they are clearly inconsequential.

The Uniform Guidance requires that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether you have complied with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants. Our procedures will consist of the applicable procedures described in the United States Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Compliance Supplement for the types of compliance requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each of your major programs. The purpose of our audit will be to express an opinion on your compliance with requirements applicable to major Federal award programs. Because an audit is designed to provide reasonable assurance, but not absolute assurance, the audit is not designed to detect immaterial violations or instances of noncompliance.

Our audit and work product are intended for the benefit and use of the University only. The audit will not be planned or conducted in contemplation of reliance by any other party or with respect to any specific transaction and is not intended to benefit or influence any other party. Therefore, items of possible interest to a third party may not be specifically addressed or matters may exist that could be assessed differently by a third party.

The working papers for this engagement are the property of Crowe and constitute confidential information. However, we may be requested to make certain working papers available to your oversight agency or grantors pursuant to authority given to them by law, regulation, or contract. If requested, access to such working papers will be provided under the supervision of our personnel. Furthermore, upon request, we may provide photocopies of selected working papers to your oversight agency or grantors. The working papers for this engagement will be retained for a minimum of three years after the date our report is issued or for any additional period requested by the oversight agency or pass-through entity. If we are aware that a federal awarding agency, pass-through entity, or auditee is contesting an audit finding, we will contact the party contesting the audit finding for guidance prior to destroying the working papers.

Government Auditing Standards require that we provide you with a copy of our most recent peer review report, which accompanies this letter.

## The University's Responsibilities

University management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management is also responsible for the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. University management is also responsible for complying with applicable laws, regulations, contracts and grants and such responsibility extends to identifying the

===== PAGE 187 =====
requirements and designing internal control policies and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that compliance is achieved. Additionally, as required by the Uniform Guidance, it is management's responsibility to follow up and take corrective action on reported audit findings and to prepare a summary schedule of prior audit findings, which should be available for our review, and a corrective action plan.

Management has the responsibility to adopt sound accounting policies, maintain an adequate and efficient accounting system, safeguard assets, and design and implement programs and controls to prevent and detect fraud. Management's judgments are typically based on its knowledge and experience about past and current events and its expected courses of action. Management's responsibility for financial reporting includes establishing a process to prepare the accounting estimates included in the financial statements.

Management is responsible for providing to us, on a timely basis, all information of which management is aware that is relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements, such as records, documentation, and other matters. Management is also responsible for providing such other additional information we may request for the purpose of the audit, and unrestricted access to persons within University from whom we determine it necessary to obtain audit evidence. Additionally, those charged with governance are responsible for informing us of their views about the risks of fraud within the University, and their knowledge of any fraud or suspected fraud affecting the University.

Management is responsible for adjusting the financial statements to correct material misstatements related to accounts or disclosures. As part of our audit process, we will request from management written confirmation concerning representations made to us in connection with the audit, including that the effects of any uncorrected misstatements aggregated by us during the audit are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial statements and to compliance with the requirements of its Federal programs. Management acknowledges the importance of management's representations and responses to our inquiries, and that they will be utilized as part of the evidential matter we will rely on in forming our opinion. Because of the importance of management's representations to an effective audit, you agree to release Crowe and its personnel from any liability and costs relating to our services under this letter attributable to any misrepresentations by management.

Management is responsible for the preparation of the supplementary information identified above in accordance with the applicable criteria. As part of our audit process, we will request from management certain written representations regarding management's responsibilities in relation to the supplementary information presented, including but not limited to its fair presentation in accordance with the applicable criteria, the method of measurement and presentation and any significant assumptions or interpretations underlying the supplementary information. In addition, it is management's responsibility to include the auditor's report on supplementary information in any document that contains the supplementary information and that indicates that we have reported on such supplementary information. It is also management's responsibility to present the supplementary information with the audited financial statements or, if the supplementary information will not be presented with the audited financial statements, to make the audited financial statements readily available to the intended users of the supplementary information no later than the date of issuance by the University of the supplementary information and the auditor's report thereon.

Management is responsible for the preparation of the required supplementary information identified above in accordance with the applicable guidelines. We will request from management certain written representations regarding management's responsibilities in relation to the required supplementary information presented, including but not limited to whether it has been measured and presented in accordance with prescribed guidelines, the method of measurement and presentation and any significant assumptions or interpretations underlying the supplementary information.

===== PAGE 188 =====
At the conclusion of the engagement, it is management's responsibility to submit the reporting package (including financial statements, schedule of expenditures of federal awards, summary schedule of prior audit findings, auditor's reports, and corrective action plan) along with the Data Collection Form to the designated federal clearinghouse and, if appropriate, to pass-through entities. The Data Collection Form and the reporting package must be submitted within the earlier of thirty days after receipt of the auditor's reports or nine months after the end of the audit period.

## OTHER SERVICES

## House Bill 622 Compliance Letter

The University will provide us with the necessary information to prepare the letter of compliance with House Bill 622. We are relying on the University to provide us with all information required by the "Minimum Audit Scope Compliance House Bill 622 (KRS 164A.555 to 164A.630)", dated August 1983, issued by the Commonwealth of Kentucky Finance and Administration Cabinet. Management is solely responsible for the compliance with the provisions of House Bill 622.

## Lease Law Compliance Letter

The University will provide us with the necessary information to prepare the letter of compliance with provisions of KRS 56.800 through 56.823, KRS 48.111 and KRS 48.190 as well as the Model Audit Program Checklist for Lease Law Compliance for Postsecondary Education Institutions. Management is solely responsible for compliance with these provisions.

## Data Collection Form input services

We will provide assistance in completing sections of the Data Collection Form (DCF) relative to its federal award programs pursuant to the requirements of Section §200.512 of the Uniform Guidance that are promulgated to be completed by the University. While we may provide this data entry service and assist you in satisfying your electronic data communication requirements to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse, the completeness and accuracy of this information remains the responsibility of your management.

With respect to the above other services, you agree to: assume all management responsibilities including making all management decisions; oversee the service by designating an individual, preferably within senior management, who possesses suitable skill, knowledge, and/or experience; evaluate the adequacy and results of the services performed; and accept responsibility for the results of the services.

## FEES

Our fees, including out-of-pocket expenses, for these services will not exceed $120,000. Our fee is based on the following key assumptions, and additional fees may apply if the following factors are not present.

Up to two major federal programs for Uniform Guidance purposes. Additional required major programs will result in additional fees, which will be presented to the University for approval.

Year-end audit fieldwork will start no earlier than October, and the University is aware that it will need to request an extension for the Kentucky Auditor of Public Accounts' deadline for submitting audited financial statements.

Management will utilize an outsourced third party to assist with audit workpaper and financial statement preparation. We also assume we will have a direct line of communication with the outsourced accountants throughout the audit process.

===== PAGE 189 =====
Our invoices are due and payable upon receipt. Invoices that are not paid within 30 days of receipt are subject to a monthly interest charge of one percent per month or the highest interest rate allowed by law, whichever is less, which we may elect to waive at our sole discretion, plus costs of collection including reasonable attorneys' fees. Circumstances may arise under which we must perform additional work and thus require additional billings for our services. Examples of such circumstances include, but are not limited to:

• Changing audit requirements

New professional standards or regulatory requirements

New financial statement disclosures

Work caused due to the identification of, and management's correction of, inappropriate application of accounting pronouncements

- Erroneous or incomplete accounting records

New or unusual transactions

• Change in your organizational structure or size due to merger and acquisition activity or other events

• Change in your controls

• Agreed-upon level of preparation and assistance from your personnel not provided

- Failure of your staff to prepare information in a timely manner

• Numerous revisions to your information

Lack of availability of appropriate University personnel during audit fieldwork.

Additionally, to accommodate requests to reschedule audit fieldwork without reasonable notice, additional billings for our services could be required, and our assigned staffing and ability to meet agreed-upon deadlines could be impacted.

Our fee assumes that we will be provided with auditable trial balances for all funds at year end, that all bank accounts and investment accounts will be reconciled through the end of the year being audited to the trial balances, that interfund and transfer accounts will balance, that subsidiary ledgers will reconcile to the general ledger and that beginning net position amounts will be reconciled to prior year audited ending net position. We assume that the University will cooperate with our requests for information such as explanations of account activity.

We assume that requested records such as invoices, contracts, grant agreements and supporting documentation will be located and provided to us. We also assume the University will prepare confirmation letters, the MD&A section, the Schedule of the University's Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability, and the Schedule of University's Contributions.

Our fee does not include implementation of any other future accounting or auditing pronouncements and/or government requirements that may change, thus, the scope or amount of auditing necessary to complete our engagements may increase beyond what is currently anticipated. Should such events occur, we would present you with our estimate of any possible increase prior to beginning our audit for the given year. An equitable adjustment in the proposed fee will be negotiated if the cost of time required for performance of the audit service is increased or decreased pursuant to a change in scope of the audit requested by the University or required by State or Federal regulations.

When we become aware of circumstances which impact the amount or scheduling of our work, we will issue, for your approval, a formal change order detailing the reason and the anticipated impact of the change.

===== PAGE 190 =====
Our fees are exclusive of taxes or similar charges, as well as customs, duties or tariffs, imposed in respect of the Services, any work product or any license, all of which Client agrees to pay if applicable or if they become applicable (other than taxes imposed on Crowe's income generally), without deduction from any fees or expenses invoiced to Client by Crowe.

To facilitate Crowe's presence at Client's premises, Client will provide Crowe with internet access while on Client's premises. Crowe will access the internet using a secure virtual private network. Crowe will be responsible for all internet activity performed by its personnel while on Client's premises.

## Crowe Engagement Terms

Crowe wants Client to understand the terms under which Crowe provides its services to Client and the basis under which Crowe determines its fees. These terms are part of the Agreement and apply to all services described in the Agreement as well as all other services provided to Client (collectively, the "Services"), unless and until a separate written agreement is executed by the parties for separate services. Any advice provided by Crowe is not intended to be, and is not, investment advice.

CLIENT'S ASSISTANCE – For Crowe to provide Services effectively and efficiently, Client agrees to provide Crowe timely with information requested and to make available to Crowe any personnel, systems, premises, records, or other information as reasonably requested by Crowe to perform the Services. Access to such personnel and information are key elements for Crowe's successful completion of Services and determination of fees. If for any reason this does not occur, a revised fee to reflect additional time or resources required by Crowe will be mutually agreed. Client agrees to provide such information to Crowe. Such information will be accurate and complete, and Client will inform Crowe of all significant tax, accounting and financial reporting matters of which Client is aware.

PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS – As a regulated professional services firm, Crowe must follow professional standards when applicable, including the Code of Professional Conduct of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA"). Thus, if circumstances arise that, in Crowe's professional judgment, prevent it from completing the engagement, Crowe retains the right to take any course of action permitted by professional standards, including declining to express an opinion or issue other work product or terminating the engagement.

REPORTS – Any information, advice, recommendations or other content of any memoranda, reports, deliverables, work product, presentations, or other communications Crowe provides under this Agreement ("Reports"), other than Client's original information, are for Client's internal use only, consistent with the purpose of the Services. Client will not rely on any draft Report. Unless required by an audit or other attestation professional standard, Crowe will not be required to update any final Report for circumstances of which we become aware or events occurring after delivery.

CONFIDENTIALITY – Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or as agreed in writing, neither Crowe nor Client may disclose to third parties the contents of this Agreement or any information provided by or on behalf of the other that ought reasonably to be treated as confidential and/or proprietary. Client use of any Crowe work product will be limited to its stated purpose and to Client business use only. However, Client and Crowe each agree that either party may disclose such information to the extent that it: (i) is or becomes public other than through a breach of this Agreement, (ii) is subsequently received by the recipient from a third party who, to the recipient's knowledge, owes no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing party with respect to that information, (iii) was known to the recipient at the time of disclosure or is thereafter created independently, (iv) is disclosed as necessary to enforce the recipient's rights under this Agreement, or (v) must be disclosed under applicable law, regulations, legal process or professional standards.

CLIENT-REQUIRED CLOUD USAGE – If Client requests that Crowe access files, documents or other information in a cloud-based or web-accessed hosting service or other third-party system accessed via the internet, including, without limitation iCloud, Dropbox, Google Docs, Google Drive, a data room hosted by a third-party, or a similar service or website (collectively, "Cloud Storage"), Client will confirm with any third-party assisting with or hosting the Cloud Storage that either such third-party or Client (and not Crowe) is responsible for complying with all applicable laws relating to the Cloud Storage and any information contained in the Cloud Storage, providing Crowe access to the information in the Cloud Storage, and protecting the information in the Cloud Storage from any unauthorized access, including without limitation unauthorized access to the information when in transit to or from the Cloud Storage. Client represents that it has authority to provide Crowe access to information in the Cloud Storage and that providing Crowe with such access complies with all applicable laws, regulations, and duties owed to third-parties.

===== PAGE 193 =====
DATA PROTECTION – If Crowe holds or uses Client information that can be linked to specific individuals who are Client's customers ("Personal Data"), Crowe will treat it as confidential as described above and comply with applicable US state and federal law and professional regulations in disclosing or using such information to carry out the Services. Crowe has implemented and will maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards reasonably designed to (i) protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of the Personal Data, (ii) prevent unauthorized access to or use of the Personal Data, and (iii) provide proper disposal of the Personal Data (collectively, the "Safeguards"). Client warrants that it has the authority to provide the Personal Data to Crowe in connection with the Services and that Client has processed the Personal Data provided to Crowe in accordance with applicable law. To provide the Services, Client may also need to provide Crowe with access to Personal Data consisting of protected health information, financial account numbers, Social Security or other government-issued identification numbers, or other data that, if disclosed without authorization, would trigger notification requirements under applicable law ("Restricted Personal Data"). In the event Client provides Crowe access to Restricted Personal Data, Client will consult with Crowe on appropriate measures (consistent with professional standards applicable to Crowe) to protect the Restricted Personal Data, such as: deleting or masking unnecessary information before making it available to Crowe, encrypting it when transferring it to Crowe, or providing it to Crowe only during on-site review on Client's site. Client will provide Crowe with Restricted Personal Data only in accordance with mutually agreed protective measures. Otherwise, Client and Crowe agree each may use unencrypted electronic media to correspond or transmit information and such use will not in itself constitute a breach of this Agreement.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY – Crowe may use ideas, concepts, methodologies, data, software, designs, utilities, tools, models, techniques, systems, Reports, or other know-how that it develops, owns or licenses ("Materials") in performing the Services. Crowe retains all intellectual property rights in the Materials (including any improvements or knowledge developed while performing the Services), and in any working papers compiled in providing the Services, but not in the Client information reflected in them. Upon payment for Services and subject to the other terms of this Agreement, Client will use Reports, as well as any Materials therein, only to the extent necessary and permitted under this Agreement.

AGGREGATED DATA – Client agrees Crowe may from time to time use and process Client's confidential information for data aggregation or industry benchmarking purposes. In using Client's confidential information in this way, Crowe will maintain the information as confidential unless Crowe removes data that specifically identifies Client and Client customers.

LEGAL AND REGULATORY CHANGE – Crowe may periodically communicate to Client changes in laws, rules or regulations. However, Client has not engaged Crowe, and Crowe does not undertake an obligation, to advise Client of changes in (a) laws, rules, regulations, industry or market conditions, or (b) Client's own business practices or other circumstances (except to the extent required by professional standards). The scope of Services and the fees for Services are based on current laws and regulations. If changes in laws or regulations change Client's requirements or the scope of the Services, Crowe's fees will be modified to a mutually agreed amount to reflect the changed level of Crowe's effort.

PUBLICATION – Client agrees to obtain Crowe's specific permission before using any Report or Crowe work product or Crowe's firm's name in a published document, and Client agrees to submit to Crowe copies of such documents to obtain Crowe's permission before they are filed or published.

CLIENT REFERENCE – From time to time Crowe is requested by prospective clients to provide references for Crowe service offerings. Client agrees that Crowe may use Client's name and generally describe the nature of Crowe's engagement(s) with Client in marketing to prospects, and Crowe may also provide prospects with contact information for Client personnel familiar with Crowe's Services.

NO PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES – Any liability of Crowe will not include any consequential, special, incidental, indirect, punitive, or exemplary damages or loss, nor any lost profits, goodwill, savings, or business opportunity, even if Crowe had reason to know of the possibility of such damages.

===== PAGE 194 =====
LIMIT OF LIABILITY – Except where it is judicially determined that Crowe performed its Services with gross negligence or willful misconduct, Crowe's liability will not exceed fees paid by Client to Crowe for the portion of the work giving rise to liability. A claim for a return of fees paid is the exclusive remedy for any damages. This limit of liability will apply to the full extent allowed by law, regardless of the grounds or nature of any claim asserted, including, without limitation, to claims based on principles of contract, negligence or other tort, fiduciary duty, warranty, indemnity, statute or common law. This limit of liability will also apply after this Agreement.

INDEMNIFICATION FOR THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS – In the event of a legal proceeding or other claim brought against Crowe by a third party, except where it is judicially determined that Crowe performed Services with gross negligence or willful misconduct, Client agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Crowe and its personnel against all costs, fees, expenses, damages and liabilities, including attorney fees and any other fees or defense costs, associated with such third-party claim, relating to or arising from any Services performed or work product provided by Crowe that Client uses or discloses to others or this engagement generally. This indemnification is intended to apply to the full extent allowed by law, regardless of the grounds or nature of any claim, liability, or damages asserted, including, without limitation, to claims, liability or damages based on principles of contract, negligence or other tort, fiduciary duty, warranty, indemnity, statute or common law. This indemnification will also apply after termination of this Agreement.

NO TRANSFER OR ASSIGNMENT OF CLAIMS – No claim against Crowe, or any recovery from or against Crowe, may be sold, assigned or otherwise transferred, in whole or in part.

TIME LIMIT ON CLAIMS – In no event will any action against Crowe, arising from or relating to this engagement letter or the Services provided by Crowe relating to this engagement, be brought after the earlier of 1) two (2) years after the date on which occurred the act or omission alleged to have been the cause of the injury alleged; or 2) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations or repose.

RESPONSE TO LEGAL PROCESS – If Crowe is requested by subpoena, request for information, or through some other legal process to produce documents or testimony pertaining to Client or Crowe's Services, and Crowe is not named as a party in the applicable proceeding, then Client will reimburse Crowe for its professional time, plus out-of-pocket expenses, as well as reasonable attorney fees, Crowe incurs in responding to such request.

MEDIATION – If a dispute arises, in whole or in part, out of or related to this engagement, or after the date of this agreement, between Client or any of Client's affiliates or principals and Crowe, and if the dispute cannot be settled through negotiation, Client and Crowe agree first to try, in good faith, to settle the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association, under its mediation rules for professional accounting and related services disputes, before resorting to litigation or any other dispute-resolution procedure. The results of mediation will be binding only upon agreement of each party to be bound. Costs of any mediation will be shared equally by both parties. Any mediation will be held in Franklin County, Kentucky.

JURY TRIAL WAIVER – FOR ALL DISPUTES RELATING TO OR ARISING BETWEEN THE PARTIES, THE PARTIES AGREE TO WAIVE A TRIAL BY JURY TO FACILITATE JUDICIAL RESOLUTION AND TO SAVE TIME AND EXPENSE. EACH PARTY AGREES IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE ITS LEGAL COUNSEL REVIEW THIS WAIVER. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND APPLIES TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS WRITTEN CONSENT TO A BENCH TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. HOWEVER, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IF ANY COURT RULES OR FINDS THIS JURY TRIAL WAIVER TO BE UNENFORCEABLE AND INEFFECTIVE IN WAIVING A JURY, THEN ANY DISPUTE RELATING TO OR ARISING FROM THIS ENGAGEMENT OR THE PARTIES' RELATIONSHIP GENERALLY WILL BE RESOLVED BY ARBITRATION AS SET FORTH IN THE PARAGRAPH BELOW REGARDING "ARBITRATION."

===== PAGE 195 =====
ARBITRATION – If any court rules or finds that the JURY TRIAL WAIVER section is not enforceable, then any dispute between the parties relating to or arising from this Agreement or the parties' relationship generally will be settled by binding arbitration in Franklin County, Kentucky (or a location agreed in writing by the parties). Any issues concerning the extent to which any dispute is subject to arbitration, or concerning the applicability, interpretation, or enforceability of any of this Section, will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and resolved by the arbitrator(s). The arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and resolved by the arbitrator(s). The parties will use the International Institute for Conflict Prevention & Resolution (the "CPR Institute") Global Rules for Accelerated Commercial Arbitration (the "Accelerated Rules") then in effect, or such other rules or procedures as the parties may agree in writing. In the event of a conflict between those rules and this Agreement, this Agreement will control. The parties may alter each of these rules by written agreement. If a party has a basis for injunctive relief, this paragraph will not preclude a party seeking and obtaining injunctive relief in a court of proper jurisdiction. The parties will agree within a reasonable period of time after notice is made of initiating the arbitration process whether to use one or three arbitrators, and if the parties cannot agree within fifteen (15) business days, the parties will use a single arbitrator. In any event the arbitrator(s) must be retired federal judges or attorneys with at least 15 years commercial law experience and no arbitrator may be appointed unless he or she has agreed to these procedures. If the parties cannot agree upon arbitrator(s) within an additional fifteen (15) business days, the arbitrator(s) will be selected by the CPR Institute. Discovery will be permitted only as authorized by the arbitrator(s), and as a rule, the arbitrator(s) will not permit discovery except upon a showing of substantial need by a party. To the extent the arbitrator(s) permit discovery as to liability, the arbitrator(s) will also permit discovery as to causation, reliance, and damages. The arbitrator(s) will not permit a party to take more than six depositions, and no depositions may exceed five hours. The arbitrator(s) will have no power to make an award inconsistent with this Agreement. The arbitrator(s) will rule on a summary basis where possible, including without limitation on a motion to dismiss basis or on a summary judgment basis. The arbitrator(s) may enter such prehearing orders as may be appropriate to ensure a fair hearing. The hearing will be held within one year of the initiation of arbitration, or less, and the hearing must be held on continuous business days until concluded. The hearing must be concluded within ten (10) business days absent written agreement by the parties to the contrary. The time limits in this section are not jurisdictional. The arbitrator(s) will apply substantive law and may award injunctive relief or any other remedy available from a judge. The arbitrator(s) may award attorney fees and costs to the prevailing party, and in the event of a split or partial award, the arbitrator(s) may award costs or attorney fees in an equitable manner. Any award by the arbitrator(s) will be accompanied by a reasoned opinion describing the basis of the award. Any prior agreement regarding arbitration entered by the parties is replaced and superseded by this agreement. The arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. All aspects of the arbitration will be treated by the parties and the arbitrator(s) as confidential.

NON-SOLICITATION – Client and Crowe acknowledge the importance of retaining key personnel. Accordingly, both parties agree that during the period of this agreement, and for one (1) year after its expiration or termination, neither party will solicit any personnel or subcontractors (if any) of the other party for employment without the written consent of the other party. If an individual becomes an employee of the other party, the other party agrees to pay a fee equal to the individual's compensation for the prior full twelve-month period to the original employer.

## General Rules

The possession and/or consumption of alcoholic beverages on KSU property is subject to Kentucky law, local ordinances, and University policies developed in keeping with this policy. All members of the KSU community, including visitors, are expected to obey these laws and policies. KSU desires to provide an environment for underage students where alcohol is not made available, and alcohol education and counseling programs are promoted.

The University prohibits serving, selling, or using alcoholic beverages on KSU property and at KSU events and activities, except as specifically authorized by this policy. All KSU events where alcoholic beverages are served, sold, or used shall be approved in accordance with this policy.

The oversight, implementation, and enforcement of this policy is delegated to the Senior Vice President for Finance and Administration (SVPFA). The SVPFA may delegate those responsibilities to other University officers or officials as appropriate and as provided in this policy. The SVPFA has delegated approval of events involving students to the Vice President for Student Engagement and Campus Life.

Except as provided by this policy, alcoholic beverages are prohibited in:

In addition, reservation of any facility is subject to approval of the University official responsible for the facility, and reservations are subject to University regulations on facilities.

KSU's designated caterer or a caterer officially approved by the KSU Purchasing Department, and licensed and in good standing with the Kentucky Alcohol Beverage Control Board, shall be responsible for the serving and sale of the alcoholic beverages on University property or at University events. The caterer shall be insured for the event either through a rider to an existing policy or through the purchase of event insurance coverage. Such coverage shall include naming of the University as an additional insured party and shall be in an amount determined by the Office of Finance and Administration.

The sponsor of the event and the licensed, insured caterer shall take affirmative and appropriate steps to ensure that persons under the age of twenty-one (21) are not served alcohol.

If the sponsor of the event is an off-campus organization or business, the sponsor shall sign a statement that the University, its Board of Regents, and the University’s agents, officers, and employees shall be held harmless for any accident, death or injury to life or property that might be found attributable to the event.

Serving, selling, or using alcoholic beverages at any official University event that is held at a personal residence or other off-campus private facility, shall comply with all aspects of this policy. This includes using KSU's designated caterer or a caterer officially approved by the KSU Purchasing Department to serve or sell the alcohol. Direct payment or reimbursement to individuals will not be made for purchases or sales of alcohol in violation of this regulation.

The SVPFA may require security measures or security personnel for an event. Security personnel used shall have the approval of the University Police Department.

## Kentucky Law Applicable to of Alcoholic Beverages

It is unlawful for a retail licensee to sell, give, purchase, or procure any alcoholic beverage for anyone under twenty-one years of age (See KRS 244.080).

It is unlawful for a person to possess or consume alcoholic beverages when under twenty-one years of age (See KRS 244.085).

It is unlawful for anyone under twenty-one years of age to misrepresent his or her age for the purpose of purchasing alcoholic beverages (See KRS 244.085).

It is unlawful for anyone under twenty-one years of age to use or attempt to use any false, fraudulent or altered identification card, paper, or other document to purchase any alcoholic beverage (See KRS 244.085).

It is unlawful for anyone to aid or assist any person under 21 years of age in purchasing, or having delivered or served to him or her, any alcoholic beverages (See KRS 244.085).

It is unlawful for anyone to drink or be under the influence of any alcoholic beverage in public place(s) (See KRS 525.100).

1. "Public place" is a place where the public or a substantial group of persons has access and includes, but is not limited to, highway and transportation facilities, schools, places of amusement, parks, places of business, playgrounds, and hallways and lobbies and other portions of apartment houses and hotels not constituting rooms or apartments designed for actual residence (See KRS 525.010).

2. The Attorney General has written: A state university campus is a "public place" and the school buildings located thereon are public buildings, so that the drinking of alcoholic beverages on the campus or in the buildings is a violation of law (See OAG 74-39).

3. The Attorney General also has written: A dormitory room on a state university campus is not a "public place" within the definition found in KRS 525.010 (See OAG 87-11).

4. The Attorney General has further written: It must be remembered that this opinion does not concern or affect the landlord tenant relationship between state universities and their student dormitory residents. As landlords, state universities continue to have the authority to include as a term of the dormitory room rental agreement a prohibition as to or restrictions on the consumption of alcoholic beverages within the premises leased, even though the student resident may be 21 years or older (OAG 87-11).

# 2018-2024 CAPITAL PLAN PLAN OVERVIEW FORM SYP-P1 PLAN VERSION - 1 4/17/2017

Branch: Executive Branch

Cabinet/Function: Cabinet for Postsecondary Education

Agency/Institution: KY State University

The Capital Plan for Kentucky State University eight priority projects for FY 2018 – 2020. KSU School of Nursing has a new title; “Construct Health Sciences Center”. It remains the number one priority for new construction on campus. The Business & Technology is second priority. Two new projects are next; renovation of the Paul G. Blazer Library to an “Academic & Student Success Center” and “Repair Boilers and Aging Distribution Lines Phase II”. Repair and refurbish existing facilities continues to be a priority. Information Technology projects included in the Plan are necessary to keep up with the constantly changing technology.

The School of Nursing at Kentucky State University is poised to grow exponentially with the further development of present academic programs and the addition of new academic programs, such as the Doctor of Nursing Practice (BSN-DNP) program. A new facility is required for this program to achieve its potential.

The School of Business is the University's largest academic program, and one that will play a key role in the University's Strategic Plan. The project will permit the development of educational technologies not now available to the school and enable it to meet its mission of providing professional development classes to the entire Frankfort community. Renovation of Blazer Library to an "Academic & Student Success Center" is required in order to provide a technology-rich learning center that has: Lecture and Event Spaces, Collaboration or Individual Learning Spaces, Writing and Communication Center, maximized space and workflow, and access to technology.

Major capital-related needs and issues facing the University are limited resources, particularly for maintenance and repair, which in turn creates deferred maintenance. The challenge in addressing its aging facilities was documented in the 2007 VFA Facility Condition Assessment and Space Study. Utilization of information obtained from the 2008 Master Plan and the 2007 VFA Condition Assessment; KSU Facilities Services Division and the Information Technology Division collaborated to establish initial priorities for the plan. Some of the projects included in this Plan were submitted in previous Capital Plan submissions.

Projects to be addressed in the “Renovation & Renewal Projects Pool” will address the deferred maintenance needs in our facilities. Note that state assistance in providing matching funds for these efforts is critical to addressing these needs before they worsen.

## 2018 -2020

$18,008,000

1 Construct Health Sciences Center

The School of Nursing at Kentucky State University is poised to grow exponentially with the further development of present academic programs and the addition of new academic programs, such as the Doctor of Nursing Practice (BSN-DNP) program. Addition of nursing and allied health programs are planned in the near future. A new facility is required for this program to achieve its potential.

A multipurpose and functional space is needed that includes laboratory space, learning laboratory configured as a virtual hospital with high-fidelity simulators, debriefing rooms, student study spaces, classrooms and teaching space in addition to a suite of offices that can be utilized for student advisement, conference space, and faculty work space. (C-O)

## Construct Business & Technology Center

$41,796,000

This project would construct a new building for the School of Business, the University's largest academic program, and one that will play a key role in the University's Strategic Plan. Proposed to be located on the Main Campus south of US60, adjacent to the proposed pedestrian bridge tower which will connect to Hathaway Hall, this facility will provide a highly visible, state-of-the-art home for the Business school that is currently housed in Bradford Hall. The project will permit the development of educational technologies not now available to the school and enable it to meet its mission of providing professional development classes to the entire Frankfort community. This initiative would be the first step in addressing the programmatic and structural issues related to Bradford Hall, current home of the School of Business. The VFA Condition Assessment and Space Study found Bradford Hall to be substandard space for the Business Program and suggested that both the Business School and the Music/Theater programs, also located in Bradford Hall, would be better served in new facilities. The School, with its new MBA program, hopes to grow 5% each year, but is in a competitive disadvantage at its present location. (C-O)

Academic & Student Success Center

===== PAGE 229 =====
The purpose of this project is to renovate the Blazer Library in order to provide a technology-rich learning center that has: Lecture and Event Spaces, Collaboration or Individual Learning Spaces, Writing and Communication Center, Maximize Space and Workflow, and Access to Technology. Paul G. Blazer Library was last renovation and addition was in 1988. It needs a full renovation to a facility where KSU students can enhance their academic and learning experience. It needs to be an academic and student success center as well as a repository of written knowledge. KSU is currently working with an architectural design firm to prepare road map of how Paul G. Blazer Library can be fully renovated and achieve the needs of our students. That Pre-Design effort is titled "Renovations in Blazer Library".

This project will provide various improvements to the Blazer Library including an upgrade in the HVAC, partial roof replacement, special fire protection for the Library's Special Collections and Archives areas; replacement of the facility's security system; and window replacements in the older section of the facility. The project will also include a state-of-the-art electrical information access and retrieval system. (C-PI)

## 4 Repair Boilers & Aging Distribution Lines Ph II

"This Phase II project is required to complete the original work scope of the current project

"Repair Boilers and Aging Distribution Lines". Consulting engineers during the programming design on the current project analyzed the existing coal-fired central plant and steam distribution system. They recommended it be replaced with a hot water distribution system and a network of distributed gas-fired boiler rooms. The current project is constructing two of the required four boiler rooms. After all four boiler rooms are constructed; the existing coal boiler system will be eliminated.

Phase II will construct two of the distributed boiler rooms and associated utility tunnel piping. That will serve approximately half the buildings on KSU campus north of US60. Phase I is currently in construction to renovate two Boiler Rooms located in Bell Gym and Blazer Library. Six buildings are served by the first boiler room which is complete. Construction is ongoing for the second boiler room which serves five buildings. (C-PI)

## Renovation & Renewal Projects Pool 2018

$5,967,000

Small projects for Renovation and Renewal of KSU facilities that need completion to keep the University's facilities at functional level. This project combines previous separate pool projects titled “Capital Renewal & Maintenance Projects Pool”, “Life Safety Upgrade Pool” and “Roof Repair & Replacement Pool”.

These projects range from electrical system upgrades to having new asphalt placed on deteriorating roads; install new or upgrade current life safety systems on campus - Upgraded fire alarm systems, Upgraded fire suppression systems, ADA improvements.

## 2020 -2022

## Renovate Bradford Hall

$29,432,000

The Performing Arts program has outgrown the available space in its present location of Bradford Hall. The VFA Condition Assessment and Space Study found Bradford Hall to be substandard space for the Music/Theater programs and suggested that both the Performing Arts program and Business School (also located in Bradford Hall) would be better served in new facilities.

Replacement is not necessary if the project “Construct Business & Technology Center” is constructed. Bradford Hall renovation to accommodate the growing Performing Arts program is planned.

"Bradford Hall was renovated in 1989 when the HVAC system was replaced. It requires a complete renovation to allow the Performing Arts program full use of the building. Necessarily, the School of Business must first be relocated to a new facility. (C-PI)"

## Renovation & Renewal Projects Pool 2020

$1,672,000

Small projects for Renovation and Renewal of KSU facilities that need completion to keep the University's facilities at functional level. This project combines previous separate pool projects titled “Capital Renewal & Maintenance Projects Pool”, “Life Safety Upgrade Pool” and “Roof Repair & Replacement Pool”.

These projects range from electrical system upgrades to having new asphalt placed on deteriorating roads; install new or upgrade current life safety systems on campus - Upgraded fire alarm systems, Upgraded fire suppression systems, ADA improvements. Repair and replacement of old roofs is part of this pool. (C-PI)

## Upgrade Information Tech Infrastructure 2020

$10,000,000

This project will continue to upgrade the data infrastructure and network (wired and wireless) for data, voice and video. This project includes the purchase and installation of fiber, cabling inside the buildings, network and communications equipment and services, video systems and other items related to the maintenance, enhancement, redundancy and security of the KSU data infrastructure and systems. Due to advancements in technology, this project will be continuous. (IT)

## 2022 -2024

===== PAGE 231 =====
This project will renovate the Betty White Health Center to a functioning modern facility required for support of KSU students residing on campus. Constructed in 1971, Betty White Health Center (10,400 gsf) is used as the University health center and nursing program clinical classroom space and office space. The facility was originally built as an infirmary and never renovated. Available space in the existing facility is inadequate and not well designed for the current Nursing program nor as a clinic for KSU students on campus. The School of Nursing will be relocated under the project “Construct Health Sciences Center”.

The building's systems have exceeded their useful life and are in need of replacement, rather than repair, including HVAC piping that has corroded and damaged exterior soffits. (C-PI)

## Additional Description/Justification

There are 120 Nursing Students with day and evening classes. Operation is from 8 am to 10 pm. There will be 50 students in BSN program in the near future. Kentucky State University (KSU) is the first HBCU to offer a post-baccalaureate (BSN-DNP) Doctor of Nursing Practice program in the role of Adult Gerontology Primacy Care Nurse Practitioner.

KSU is blazing trails nationally as well. According to the American Association of College and Nursing (AACN), the BSN-DNP program at KSU joins only 14% of nursing programs nationally that offer the BSN-DNP as an entry-level option into advanced practice (AACN, 2014). as well as expanding current service learning and community service opportunities so they become a more significant component of student performance. On-going improvements in these areas have a direct impact on graduating students ability to succeed in the workforce of the Commonwealth. The School of Nursing provides two accredited nursing programs; a pre-licensure, Associates Degree in Nursing and a RN-BSN program for registered nurses. Program Accreditation has been received since 1973 for the Associate Degree in Nursing and the RN-BSN Nursing Program since Spring 2006. Nursing (Associate & Bachelor) freshmen enrollment has risen over the past five years. Fall 2003 freshman enrollment was 34, Fall 2004 it was 44, Fall 2005 again 44, Fall 2006 increased to 62 and Fall 2007 it increased to 86. The 5

===== PAGE 239 =====
Yr Change (2003-2007) was 153%. Undergraduate Enrollment in Nursing Associate was 175 Fall 2003, 226 Fall 2004, 217 Fall 2005, 251 Fall 2006, 292 Fall 2007; a 67% 5 Yr Change (2003-2007). Undergraduate Enrollment in Nursing Bachelor was 25 Fall 2003, 14 Fall 2004, 35 Fall 2005, 36 Fall 2006, 29 Fall 2007; a 16% 5 Yr Change (2003-2007).

In response to the question: "Are Kentuckys people, communities, and economy benefiting?"— the nursing degree programs both have a direct impact on the local economy. Specific outreach programs are being developed to assist in attracting students who can enter the work force to help ease the pressure in the health fields resulting from the nursing shortage. Increases in KSUs ability to graduate more nursing students helps to stimulate the economic development for the region, while serving the needs of the community. KSUs Action Plan indicates efforts of being stewards in offering education services to meet the economic and community needs of the designated service area and beyond.

The current and enhanced plans for this facility will have an impact on the local economy in support of the community by attracting and graduating more students to serve the specific health care needs of the community.

## Brief Description/Justification:

This project would construct a new building for the School of Business, the University's largest academic program, and one that will play a key role in the University's Strategic Plan. Proposed to be located on the Main Campus south of US60, adjacent to the proposed pedestrian bridge tower which will connect to Hathaway Hall, this facility will provide a highly visible, state-of-the-art home for the Business school that is currently housed in Bradford Hall. The project will permit the development of educational technologies not now available to the school and enable it to meet its mission of providing professional development classes to the entire Frankfort community. This initiative would be the first step in addressing the programmatic and structural issues related to Bradford Hall, current home of the School of Business. The VFA Condition Assessment and Space Study found Bradford Hall to be substandard space for the Business Program and suggested that both the Business School and the Music/Theater programs, also located in Bradford Hall, would be better served in new facilities. The School, with its new MBA program, hopes to grow 5% each year, but is in a competitive disadvantage at its present location.

## Additional Description/Justification

New space for the School of Business will mean the school will be able to offer more programs in areas such as Agri-Business, Entrepreneurship, and Finance. The School of Business has out grown its present allotted space in Bradford Hall and is projected to continue to increase program size at a rate of 5 percent per year.

Bradford Hall is recommended for "major renovation and assign to a new use or demolition" in the VFA Facility Condition Report.

This will be a 65,200 square feet 4 story building with 12 large classrooms, 5 medium size classrooms, 5 small seminar rooms, two computer labs and one 160 person lecture hall.

It is further recommended in the KSU Master Plan, that this building feature a lower level parking structure, accessible from East Main Street, retail space on its street level floor and a small short term parking lot off E. Main St. The architectural character should build on the existing architecture of the new Young Hall dormitory to the east and utilize similar materials such as brick and glass. The new building should also employ some of the vocabulary of the north campus, including less

## Additional Description/Justification

Blazer Library requires a complete renovation of its space to make it serve the campus community with the latest technology. The space must be revised to become an Academic and Student Success Center and not just book storage and research. Lecture and event space, collaborative work space, individual learning space, writing and communication center plus computer labs are necessary. KSU is currently working with an architectural design firm providing pre-design services aimed at developing a program scope to accomplish these goals.

The original HVAC system does not control humidity and has created excess moisture not conducive to a library. Approximately 30% of the roof needs to be replaced. The windows on the back of the original part of the library need to be replaced. Electrical systems upgrades are needed thought the building.

The Archives and Special Collection areas need fire protection designed for such materials. The facility security system is inoperable and needs to be replaced.

Renovation of this facility will have a direct impact on the University's deferred maintenance backlog. It will significantly reduce the capital renewal and maintenance burden that would otherwise need to be done for this facility and in a more cost-effective manner.

"Repair Boilers & Aging Distribution Lines" is an authorized project currently constructing half the required scope. The consultants design requires construction of four distributed hot water boiler rooms and new hot water distribution piping. Only two of the hot water boiler rooms and associated piping could be constructed with available funds. A Phase II is required.

## Brief Description/Justification:

"This Phase II project is required to complete the original work scope of the current project "Repair Boilers and Aging Distribution Lines". Consulting engineers during the programming design on the current project analyzed the existing coal fired central plant and steam distribution system. They recommended it be replaced with a hot water distribution system and a network of distributed gas fired boiler rooms. The current project is constructing two of the required four boiler rooms. After all four boiler rooms are constructed; the existing coal boiler system will be eliminated.

Phase II will construct two of the distributed boiler rooms and associated utility tunnel piping. That will serve approximately half the buildings on KSU campus north of US60.

Phase I is currently in construction to renovate two Boiler Rooms located in Bell Gym and Blazer Library. Six buildings are served by the first boiler room which is complete. Construction is ongoing for the second boiler room which serves five buildings.

## Existing Facility? Yes

The Kentucky State University Boiler Plant was originally built in 1977 and renovated in 1989. The boiler plant has 3 boilers, two (2) coal fired, and one (1) gas fired. The two (2) coal boilers are 36 years old and were constructed in 1977. The gas boiler was built in 1987 and originally meant as a supplemental boiler to the coal boilers.

The building has 3,170 SF and is in Fair condition. The boilers are in poor condition.

The 4,363 linear feet of steam lines were also installed beginning in 1977. The steam lines have surpassed there useful life cycle. They will not hold the pressure needed to economically heat the campus. The line develops multiple leaks when pressure is being brought up.

## Program Relocation? Yes

The existing central steam plant provides heat to most of the buildings located north of US60. This project will distribute that function to four boiler rooms distributed around the campus to proved hot water heat to all the buildings. Existing space within Bell Gym, Blazer Library, Hill Student Center is being renovated to construct the boiler rooms. The existing central steam plant is the space to be renovated for the fourth boiler room.

## Phased Project? Yes

"Repair Boilers & Aging Distribution Lines" is an authorized project currently constructing half the required scope. A Phase II is required for 2018 -2020.

### 2018-2024 CAPITAL PLAN PROPOSED CAPITAL PROJECT. FORM SYP-P2 PLAN VERSION - 1 4/17/2017

complete review of the KSU central boiler plant and steam distribution system with evaluation of impact from EPA regulations. They recommended replacement of the steam heating system with a distributed hot water distribution system and multiple hot water boiler rooms. Following is taken from the Engineers Executive Summary - Programming Document date June 4, 2015.

Project Description from Original DECA RFQ:

The least expensive option discussed during the State Budget review was selected for funding. A $10,400,000 project ($8,700,000 construction) will allow replacement of the two (2) old coal boilers with one (1) new natural gas boiler and replacement of some steam distribution lines.

This project will replace boilers and repair a portion of the existing steam plant system.

## Recommendations:

Three major options are being compared for the University's consideration. Each option will consider (1) first and future cost, (2) life cycle cost (total cost of ownership), (3) energy/efficiency, (4) maintenance considerations, (5) system complexity, and (6) regulatory considerations/fuel source.

The recommended option for implementation is Option 3 based on total cost of ownership and risk for the University. This option will require an additional funding request of ~$7,000,000 for construction to fully implement the transition from steam to hot water heating.

Option 3 offers the best life cycle long-term option for the University. This option is predicated on securing additional capital funding through an additional budgetary request for another construction phase to complete the total project scope and this offers certain risk. This option will eliminate the use of coal and the future risk associated with coal and regulatory compliance. Note that the only higher educational institutions, in Kentucky, that still operate with coal plants

are UK and EKU. All other Universities have transitioned away from coal heating plants.

Option 3 Description: Replace all boilers and install (6) natural gas high efficiency hot water boilers with a total plant capacity of ~36,000,000 btu/h. Project would phase-out all of the steam infrastructure; however, the current construction funds will allow for installation of 3 or 4 of the new boilers and associated piping infrastructure. Future boilers and piping would have to be installed in a future construction phase and funding would need to be requested and secured to fully implement this option.

□ PROS

□ First Cost - Partial implementation in Phase I.

□ Life Cycle Cost - Hot water heating system offers the lowest life cycle cost of the options being considered.

===== PAGE 250 =====
# 2018-2024 CAPITAL PLAN PROPOSED CAPITAL PROJECT. FORM SYP-P2 PLAN VERSION - 1

4/17/2017

□ Energy Efficiency - ~85% system efficiency. Hot water heating system offers the lowest energy usage and least amount of installed plant capacity of the options being considered.

□ Maintenance - Hot water heating system offers the least maintenance of the options being considered.

☐ System complexity - Hot water heating system offers the least complexity of the options being considered.

1. NEW RESIDENCE FACILITIES: The University has set as a goal to double its student population (from 2,000 to 4,000 students) by 2020. Modern housing will be critical to the University meeting this goal. As a result of a student housing study conducted in 1996, housing designs will focus primarily on apartment and suite-style arrangements. Programmatic changes will include special interest housing (i.e., graduate and family housing, international housing, learning communities and theme housing). The newly constructed housing will provide for co-ed living arrangements.

2. INCREASE IN NUMBERS OF HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES: Demographics suggest that there will be an increase of Kentucky public and non-public high school graduates. KSU has experienced in recent increase in Freshman classes and projections for the next two freshman classes indicate a need for additional housing.

3. INCREASE IN AGE OF STUDENTS: Demographics suggest that there will be an increase in older students. Consequently, resources will have to be added and expanded. For example, year-round, furnished accommodations will be necessary, as well as, access to such services as childcare.

4. TECHNOLOGY: It will be necessary for the Office of Residence to recognize changes in technology in order to provide facilities that offer state-of-the-art equipment. Additional computer rooms need to be developed within or near residence facilities with appropriate instructional support. Central office and support offices must have upgraded technology.

5. LEARNING ENVIRONMENT: The residence halls are a place where students learn to live cooperatively within community standards. The environment needs to be one where students can live, learn and socialize. Linkage with academic departments, increased faculty involvement, commitment to community service initiatives and collaborative effort with the New Student Experience initiatives will enhance the resident student's academic

6. STAFFING PATTERNS: With new residential facilities, additional staff will be needed at all levels. The professional staff must be skilled in technology and in developing and promoting active learning through various collaborative efforts.

## Additional Description/Justification

This project provides a pool of money to be used for property acquisition as properties that will enhance the University program and mission become available. Its primary use is to purchase properties adjacent to the main campus. Additional land is needed for academic buildings, service, housing buildings, parking, recreational space and Land Grant research facilities. The Campus Master Plan describes areas for expanding parking development and vehicular movement changes. In order to meet the physical plant needs of the University, additional land needs to be purchased.

The land acquisitions are based on the 2008 Campus Master Plan. These acquisitions will achieve many goals and objectives of the University including the following: increase the availability of quality open space; protect and enhance the integrity and ambiance of the south campus areas; enhance the sense of arrival and entry to the campus; provide adequate parking in close proximity to campus functions; and provide landscaped pedestrian ways to connect parking facilities with high-use functions.

## Brief Description/Justification:

The Performing Arts program has outgrown the available space in its present location of Bradford Hall. The VFA Condition Assessment and Space Study found Bradford Hall to be substandard space for the Music/Theater programs and suggested that both the Performing Arts program and Business School (also located in Bradford Hall) would be better served in new facilities. Replacement is not necessary if the project "Construct Business & Technology Center" is constructed. Bradford Hall renovation to accommodate the growing Performing Arts program is planned.

"Bradford Hall was renovated in 1989 when the HVAC system was replaced. It requires a complete renovation to allow the Performing Arts program full use of the building. Necessarily, the School of Business must first be relocated to a new facility."

Project Title Renovate Betty White Health Building

Category Construction - Protect Investment in Plant

Biennium 2022-2024

Location (county) Franklin

Location (ADD) Bluegrass ADD

Appropriation Unit 435U

Additional Funding? No

## Brief Description/Justification:

This project will renovate the Betty White Health Center to a functioning modern facility required for support of KSU students residing on campus. Constructed in 1971, Betty White Health Center (10,400 gsf) is used as the University health center and nursing program clinical classroom space and office space. The facility was originally built as an infirmary and never renovated. Available space in the existing facility is inadequate and not well designed for the current Nursing program nor as a clinic for KSU students on campus. The School of Nursing will be relocated under the project "Construct Health Sciences Center".

The building's systems have exceeded their useful life and are in need of replacement, rather than repair, including HVAC piping that has corroded and damaged exterior soffits.

Projects for upgrade of IT network infrastructure.

## Phased Project? Yes

Projects for upgrade of network will be a continuous process over each biennium.

## Additional Description/Justification

Both KSU's fiber network and its wireless network need to be expanded and upgraded. The fiber network's current topology needs to convert to a star topology which will require re-installing fiber to each building and terminating each connection at a central fiber hub. Redundant connectivity will insure neat 100% uptime for the network. Create a fully wireless campus where the network can be accessed by students, faculty, staff, alumni and visitors anywhere and anytime while on campus. This will also allow advances in information distribution using handheld devices such as cell phones, I-pods, I-touches, etc. Extend wireless access to KSU's research farm in Franklin County.

I understand and agree that any and all information I review, inspect or otherwise receive as a member of the Board of Regents (the "Board") of Kentucky State University is being received by me solely in connection to my work as a Board member. All such information is strictly confidential and proprietary and no such information should be shared with any other person, unless I am specifically directed to do so by the Chairperson of the Board of Regents, by subpoena, or by a court of law. In addition, I understand that discussing such information is a breach of my agreement to maintain confidentiality. I also understand that such a breach may negatively affect the work, mission, property interests or reputation of Kentucky State University. I understand, acknowledge and agree that I have a fiduciary responsibility to Kentucky State University and that said responsibility includes the duty of confidentiality. Therefore, I will not discuss or disseminate any information or details concerning any Kentucky State University files, personnel, faculty, staff or students (collectively, the "Information") outside of official Board meetings or with any person who is not a member of the Board of Regents, unless specifically directed to do so by the Chairperson of the Board of Regents, by subpoena, or by a court of law. I acknowledge and agree that the Chairperson of the Board is the sole spokesperson for the Board and that no other Board member may speak on behalf of the Board, unless directed to do so by the Chairperson of the Board. Furthermore, I shall not use any of the Information for any purpose except for Board matters. I understand that maintaining confidentiality is a condition of my service as a Regent and that any breach of confidentiality may result in Board action, including action to have me removed from the Board.

I agree to take the following minimum safeguards with respect to the Information:

o All Information I receive as a Board member shall be maintained in files separate and apart from other information in my possession.

o I warrant that I will take such other steps as are necessary to safeguard the Information and to ensure that others will not be given access to the Information.

Upon termination of my term as a Board member, or upon request of the Chairperson of the Board of Regents, all Information and all copies thereof, shall be returned to the Board promptly, with a letter of certification confirming that all Information has been returned. I understand and agree that all such Information is and shall remain the property of Kentucky State University.

===== PAGE 295 =====
Furthermore, I understand and agree that my duty of confidentiality continues beyond my term as a member of the Board and that failure to maintain confidentiality may subject me to legal action by Kentucky State University, including, but not limited to, a civil court action for injunctive relief and/or for damages. I also agree not to disparage or demean Kentucky State University or its reputation in any way related to information I have received in my position.

By signing below, I acknowledge that I have read this document, I understand the standards and expectations it sets for me, and I knowingly and voluntarily agree to abide by it while serving as a member of the Board of Regents of Kentucky State University and afterward.
