CONVENING OF PUBLIC MEETING Chairman Hayden called the meeting to order at 11:00 a.m. He expressed his appreciation to the Trustees, who he noted are uncompensated volunteers, for taking the time to participate in today�s meeting. The Chairman called for a roll call, and upon completion, declared a quorum for today�s meeting. 2. CHANCELLOR�S REPORT Chancellor Zimpher said the primary topic for discussion today is the SUNY budget. She gave an update on the Public Higher Education Empowerment and Innovation Act stating that in the waning days of the budget, SUNY did not get what it asked for in the way of regulatory reforms, which is essentially a missed opportunity for SUNY and the State of New York. The Chancellor said the Act called for comprehensive management reform with positive zero cost solution to the economic problems of the State. She said it called for a rational tuition model that was fair, equitable and predictable, and for differential tuition that would recognize the cost of doing business at our doctoral institutions. Dr. Zimpher said it would solidify once and for all, the prevention of sweeping tuition dollars to fill budget deficits of the State of New York. The Chancellor thanked the Trustees in their steadfast support, advice and advocacy, not only for the Strategic Plan but the linkage to the Empowerment Act. She thanked the students, faculty, campus Presidents, alumni, governance leaders, building trade unions, economic development operations, business leaders, local, county and federal leaders, for support and endorsement of SUNY that is unrivaled in its history. Dr. Zimpher also thanked Julie Gondar and Ken O�Brien for their heroic leadership, stating her assurance that we will continue our advocacy and persistence will be our hallmark in bringing the Governor�s office and legislative leaders of the Senate and Assembly along. Chancellor Zimpher said today we are presenting a budget for 2010-2011 as well as a tuition proposal. She noted that during advocacy discussions it was made clear that we would not propose a tuition increase unless we were fully assured that none of it would be taken by the State for non-SUNY purposes. The Chancellor then called upon Sr. Vice Chancellor and Chief Financial Officer, Monica Rimai to present the financial plan and tuition resolutions. Ms. Rimai said there will be three resolutions presented today. The first two relate to SUNY�s Financial Plan - one relates to a proposal for tuition and the second calls for a plan for allocating resources. She thanked the Campus Presidents, Business Officers and the Budget Task Force and the staff of System Administration�s budget office. Ms. Rimai noted again that there is no proposal for an in-state increase undergraduate tuition; however the resolution provides for a modest increase of 4% for non-resident undergraduate and graduate tuition. It was noted during discussion that while 100% of the $19 million in expected revenue from this increase is allocated back to the campus, it will not come close to meeting the $210 million budget cuts. Ms. Rimai noted that it has never been the intent to balance the economic challenges of the University at the expense of its students, but rather to advocate for a balanced approach that sought new sources of revenues and greater efficiencies. She said in the ensuing months there will be layoffs, program eliminations and an increase in class size, thus there will be a significant impact as a result of the cuts. During discussion it was noted that other institutions, such as Florida, North Carolina and California have not only proposed tuition increases, but have also instituted enrollment caps. Ms. Rimai noted that while we have spending authority to raise tuition as proposed, there is concern that if we contradict what the Assembly has clearly indicated asits desire not to increase undergraduate in-state tuition, we are making our students� tuition dollars vulnerable to another sweep. Trustee Warren-Merrick acknowledged that while the tuition increase may be necessary, she expressed concern about what message will be sent to the legislature who had just cut SUNY�s budget. She inquired as to if we have completely researched and vetted every other possibility before proposing this increase. Ms. Rimai responded that increasing operating efficiency is an ongoing process given the remarkably large and complex institutions within the system. She stated the reality of cutting a program in one area, may have a huge negative impact in another. Ms. Rimai said some of the efficiencies developed today may only reap a benefit for two or three years. She noted that at the System level, there has been a reduction in force imposed and a significant number of employees have been laid off. Ms. Rimai said positions have been frozen, that all Management-Confidential staff are now experiencing furloughs and that we have cut our non-personnel expenditures dramatically. She said that a number of campuses are either contemplating or have imposed enrollment caps. Trustee Staller stated that the Stony Brook Foundation has authorized the expenditure of approximately $3 million in private funds to retain a consulting firm which has realized incredible savings at other universities and suggested this may work elsewhere in the system. A lengthy discussion ensued on cost reduction and increased efficiencies throughout the system. Ms. Rimai said the bottom line is we need to manage essentially $210 million in cuts in the past years in a manner that doesn�t burden our students or compromise the quality and experience at our campuses. She said we cannot cut our way out of a financial crisis and given the lack of flexibility and limited tools we have to find new sources of revenue, the end result will be a continued erosion of access, program offerings and personnel. Ms. Rimai noted that while the legislature claimed they were protecting access in denying SUNY the reforms set for the in the Empowerment Act, they were in reality, doing the opposite. She said the resolution before the Board today impacts a small number of students, entering relatively more lucrative professions, and in light of what other institutions are charging for these same programs, the requested increase is neither out of line nor will it have a significant impact on enrollment. There was discussion regarding the past five year�s tuition increases during which it was noted that of the last increase 90% of generated revenues were swept by the legislature to fill budget gaps in other areas; that is, it was not returned to the campuses. It was also noted it is the understanding that this current tuition increase falls under existing spending authority and that the $19 million in generated revenue will not be swept by the legislature. Ms. Rimai noted that if the Board had the authority to set tuition in a comprehensive manner, increases would reflect cost indexes largely driven by the higher education pricing list. Chairman Hayden stated that we find ourselves in a horrific political position and expressed appreciation to the administration for a carefully crafted tuition policy. He said when you cut the state�s public higher education system by nearly a third in three years there must be expected negative consequences. Mr. Hayden said the Empowerment Act asked for permission to manage against the unprecedented proportions of assessed budget cuts, and we were denied. He stated a large part of the legislature�s premise for denial was based on concern of limited access for students, and they clearly do not appreciate that by this action, they are causing this very end result. The second resolution, presented by Chancellor Zimpher, allocates the reduced amount of State support. The Chancellor said because of ongoing years of reduced support, a President�s budget task force has recently met to reexamine the model for our resource allocation model and hopefully a new model will be available for next year�s budget. She noted that a different approach will be implemented to keep the Board informed as to the overall method of budget management. She said in the spring the Board will be provided with a performance analysis on this year�s budget allocation process. Chancellor Zimpher said with this year�s methodology we attempted to bracket the impact for any single campus to try to account for the dramatic diversity in financial conditions from campus to campus. She said we also attempted to limit the disruption of services to the campuses in regard to vital university-wide programs and to minimize impact on financial aid and opportunity programs. The Chancellor said what we did not do was minimize the impact on System Administration and that it would be a fair statement to say that it took a disproportionate cut in the overall financial plan. However, she said that it was felt this was fair, given the fact that it relies exclusively on State appropriations as it does not collect tuition revenue. Chancellor Zimpher said the end result was that we netted the cut, we took the increase cost of collective bargaining and other inflationary costs and subtracted that from the total decrease. This allows the campuses to manage the increased cost associated with collective bargaining on their own. The Chancellor said we then netted the decrease in State tax support and distributed proportionally based on existing support. She noted this was the one method that helped to minimize the amount of variance across campuses. The Chancellor also noted that the legislature mandated what the allocation of cuts would be for Alfred and the Colleges at Cornell, so we had no control in reducing the variance for these campuses. The next resolution discussed was for the Maritime campus. Ms. Rimai said at a previous Board meeting a resolution was approved for a tuition adjustment for the Maritime College. She said when the proposed rule was presented to the Executive branch they requested more specific delegation of authority to the Chancellor which is what the today�s resolution does. The resolution affects only a small group of out-of-state students who reside in states which have agreements with the regional Maritime Academy. Due to increase costs, these students will now be charged 150% of in-state tuition at Maritime. 3. RESOLUTIONS Upon motion of motion of Mr. Staller, seconded by Mr. Hunt the following resolution was unanimously adopted. Regional Tuition Rate - State University of New York Maritime College Whereas the State University Maritime College is a state maritime academy under federal law (46 U.S.C. Section 51501 et seq.) and is administered and funded in accordance with federal requirements; and Whereas Maritime College is a regional maritime academy in accordance with an agreement with the United States of America, and under this regional academy status, has charged students from the participating states in-state tuition rates as authorized by this Board of Trustees pursuant to Resolution 97-70, adopted May 28, 1997; and Whereas Maritime College has requested more flexibility in its ability to set rates for students from outside of New York State; now therefore, be it Resolved that the Chancellor or designee be, and hereby is, authorized and directed to prepare, in accordance with the provisions of the State Administrative Procedure Act, a Notice of Emergency Adoption and Proposed Rulemaking with respect to amendments to section 302.5 of Title 8 of the Official Compilation of Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New York, to read as follows (brackets denote old material to be deleted; underlining denotes new material to be added): Section 302.5. Tuition charge for nonresident students at Maritime College. �(a) The chancellor hereby is authorized to execute in the name and under the seal of the State University on behalf of the Maritime College thereof, an agreement with the United States of America, acting through the Maritime Administration of the Department of Transportation, under the Maritime Academy Act of 1958 (Public Law 85-672) and applicable regulations, for annual payments in support of the Maritime College, including agreement to admit students resident in other states, and for subsidy payments with respect to students attending the Maritime College and further including agreements with other states to participate in a regional maritime academy whereby students from participating states are charged [the tuition role for State residents]a special tuition rate of 150% of the tuition [role] rate for State residents �in accordance with Federal requirements; provided, however that students from participating states who have matriculated during or prior to the State University�s 2009-10 fiscal year shall be charged a special tuition rate of 125% of the tuition rate for State students, in accordance with Federal requirements. (b) The increased annual payment in support of the Maritime College upon condition of admitting students residents in other states shall be received in discharge of such amount of the established nonresident tuition charge rate as shall reduce it to the special rate described in paragraph (a) above [rate charged State residents] in the case of such students admitted under Federal requirements. and, be it further Resolved that Resolution 2010-081, adopted May 11, 2010, be, and the same hereby is, repealed. (2010-108) Upon motion of motion of Dr. Ehrenberg, seconded by Mr. Murad, with Ms. Gondar abstaining following resolution was adopted. Amendment to Tuition Schedule Whereas analysis of the tuition schedule, appropriate comparisons to similarly situated institutions, and review of market conditions demonstrates that the out-of-state resident undergraduate and graduate tuition should be increased by 4% and that tuition for professional programs, including medical, dental, law, pharmacy, doctorate of physical therapy, and doctorate of nursing practice should be increased by 9% for resident students and 20% for out-of-state resident students, and tuition for masters of business administration should be increased by 9% for resident students and 10% for out-of-state resident students, and the rate for the optometry program should be increased by 5.2% for both resident students and for out-of-state resident students; and Whereas the Legislature's intent in�maintaining the�previous year's�level of�tuition appropriation authority for SUNY in 2010-11, was to preclude any increase in resident undergraduate tuition for 2010-11, SUNY will abide by this intent, and not propose any increase for resident undergraduate tuition for the upcoming academic year; and thus, tuition for resident undergraduate students will be held to the 2009-10 level; and Whereas tuition for resident graduate students will be held to the 2009-10 level; and Whereas adoption on an immediate basis of these tuition increases effective for the Fall 2010 semester is necessary in order for the State University to timely obtain necessary revenue while maintaining program quality and access and to give appropriate notice of the increases to students, their families and financial aid providers; and Whereas preservation of the State University�s financial health is essential because, among other things, SUNY plays a critical role in the economic well-being of New York State, through the development of an educated workforce which contributes to revenues collected by the State and spent in this State in the amount of approximately $47 billion over the lifetime of each graduating class; now, therefore, be it Resolved that the Chancellor, or designee, be, and hereby is, authorized and directed to prepare, in accordance with the provisions of the State Administrative Procedure Act, a Notice of Emergency Adoption and Proposed Rulemaking with respect to amendments to section 302.1 of Title 8 of the Official Compilation of Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New York, to read as follows (brackets denote old material to be deleted; underlining denotes new material to be added): Section 302.1.

Conveyance of Permanent Easement � State University of New York at Stony Brook Whereas the Suffolk County Water Authority (�SCWA�), a public benefit corporation, is seeking permission to build, on land owned by the State, a pumping station, water mains and associated appurtenances to improve service to the State University at Stony Brook and surrounding communities; Whereas SCWA requires a permanent easement, the approximate location of which is indicated on the map attached hereto, to construct, maintain and operate said pumping station; Whereas the State University at Stony Brook has evaluated the site requested by SCWA and has determined that the site comports with plans for improved service to the campus community, including its planned hotel; Whereas the Commissioner of General Services is authorized and empowered to convey easements in the lands of The People of the State of New York; now, therefore, be it Resolved that the Chancellor, or designee, be and hereby is authorized to take all steps necessary to execute or approve in the name of and on behalf of this Board, all documents, notices, maps, or any other instruments necessary or proper to effect conveyance of such easement pursuant to Section 3(2) of the Public Lands Law, subject to approval of the Commissioner of General Services. (2010-111) Chairman Hayden said prior to calling an executive session, he wished to express appreciation to all for work done on behalf of the SUNY Empowerment Act. In particular, he thanked Chancellor Zimpher for the time and effort devoted to the Strategic Plan, which he said will prove to be a powerful instrument for the growth of the State University. Mr. Hayden said the Chancellor has been a non-stop advocate, a tireless and articulate spokesperson who has established a very different relationship with the Governor and the Budget Office. The Chairman said no one has been more assiduous in their advocacy for access and excellence than Nancy Zimpher. The Chairman said while it is a lost opportunity of immense dimension that we were not given the tools to manage through the Empowerment Act, we are not finished and we will come back stronger in the years to come and hopefully, with a new Governor and a new legislature in place, will be successful. 4. CONVENING OF EXECUTIVE SESSION At 12:28 pm., Mr. Hayden said he wished to call for an Executive Session under provisions of Section 105 of Article 7 of the Public Officers Law, as follows: S (1) (d) "discussions regarding proposed, pending or current litigation"; S (1) (f) "the medical, financial, credit or employment history of a particular person or corporation, or matters leading to the appointment, employment, promotion, demotion, discipline, suspension, dismissal or removal of a particular person or corporation." Upon motion Dr. Ehrenberg, seconded by Dr. Lichtman, it was unanimously agreed to convene an Executive Session for the purposes specified by Mr. Hayden. Mr. Hayden recessed the Executive Session at 12:41 p.m. 12:43 p.m. 5. RECONVENING OF PUBLIC MEETING/ADJOURNMENT On August 12, 2010 at 12:42 p.m., Chairman Hayden reconvened the Public Meeting.
