RECOMMENDATION TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONCERNING PHASED RETIREMENT OF FACULTY

Personnel Committee – June 4, 2015

Board of Trustees – June 4, 2015

RECOMMENDATION The President recommends: That the Board of Trustees extend the attached Phased Retirement Options for University of Louisville Faculty for a five-year period; and That the Executive Vice President/University Provost reevaluate this policy in the Spring of 2020 for continuation, discontinuation, or change. BACKGROUND Policy is attached. In February 2003, the Board of Trustees authorized the implementation of the subject policy for a two-year period and in February 2005 extended it for five more years; the Board of Trustees extended the subject policy for five years more in February 2010. The policy allows faculty who meet certain criteria to enter retirement through a phased reduction in their university workload assignments. This has been a successful option for faculty and has allowed the units to realize some budgetary savings. To date, fifty-six faculty members have participated in the program. The Executive Vice President/University Provost consulted with Faculty Senate leadership and deans to get feedback on their experience with this policy. The experience of all concerned has been positive and continuation of the policy is recommended. The Executive Vice President/University Provost joins the President in making this recommendation.

PHASED RETIREMENT OPTION FOR UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE FACULTY

I. Objectives: This policy is established for the mutual benefit of the university and of individual faculty members: 1. To provide full-time tenured faculty with an attractive option for gradual reduction in university responsibilities as they near retirement. The plan provides the same full health insurance available to full-time faculty and a continuing University contribution to retirement funds proportional to the percentage of work effort. 2. To permit units and departments to plan over several years for the integrated management and replacement of senior faculty while also utilizing that expertise. 3. To allow departments, units, and the University to phase in replacements of full-time faculty in a manner which benefits the future academic efforts of the University. II. Phased Retirement Plan 1. A single unified plan will be available to each full-time tenured faculty member who has at least ten years of service at the University of Louisville and whose age plus years of service equals at least 70. After an initial two-year trial period during which faculty members may elect to participate, the President shall evaluate the plan for extension. 2. Participants will officially retire effective at the beginning of their phased retirement period to enable them to have access to their retirement benefits. They will be re-employed for no less than 33% or no more than 50% effort yet receive the same health insurance benefits provided to full-time faculty and a retirement fund contribution proportional to the percentage of work effort. Tuition remission benefits available to full-time faculty would remain as well. 3. Once this plan is fully implemented, faculty may participate in the plan for no less than one (1) year nor more than three (3) years. 4. In order to meet department and unit needs, the proposal for participation must be developed as no less than 33% or no more than 50% annual work plan by the department chair in consultation with the other department faculty. 5. Upon recommendation from the department chair, the Dean shall evaluate each request for phased retirement for its consistency with the program’s initiatives and its benefits to the faculty member and the university. The Dean shall then provide the unit recommendation to the Provost. Final approval and decisions on appeals will rest with the Provost. 6. During the phased retirement period, most released CAR or general funds will remain with the unit but may be distributed to the department, following consultation with the Dean. At the end of the phased retirement period, the usual process for retention of the faculty line shall be followed. 7. Term faculty paid from general funds who meet the eligibility requirements may request a phased retirement as a final term contract. The unit has discretion to allow the phased retirement as well as to offer full-time health and tuition benefits under this plan.

Page 19/53

8. Schools may develop alternatives for faculty paid from restricted funds, which may include grant funding and/or clinical revenues to permit a phased retirement option while retaining full health and tuition benefits. Approved by Board of Trustees February 13, 2003 Extension approved by Board of Trustees February 10, 2005 Extension approved by Board of Trustees January 14, 2010

I. Call to Order

Having determined a quorum present, Chairman Hughes called the Special meeting to

order at 9:30 a.m.

Approval of Minutes, April 2, 2015

Mrs. Abrams made a motion, which Mr. Wilson seconded, to approve the minutes of the

April 2, 2015 meeting. The motion passed.

II. Information Session: Compensation

President Ramsey began a discussion regarding media reports about compensation of key

employees of the University. Dr. Ramsey stated there were flaws in the data presented

by the reporters. He then fielded questions from board members

Mr. Greenberg and Dr. Prather stated the President was being paid appropriately, but

expressed a lack of clarity regarding the compensation of University employees being

compensated by the University of Louisville Foundation, Inc. without approval by the

Board of Trustees of the University of Louisville.

Mr. Campbell stated he had requested a comprehensive list of current UofL employees

who were paid from Foundation funds during the last five years, and those projected to be

paid by the Foundation.

Ms. Moore noted board members had not contacted her as Compensation Committee

Chair regarding their questions. As a follow up to last year’s Compensation Committee

meeting, she asked the University to hire a consulting firm to do a comparison

compensation study of total compensation for management and she planned to present the

results at the July Compensation meeting during the Board Retreat. She has asked the

consultant to join her in the presentation.

Dr. Prather stated the Foundation should remain a separate entity, but should be more

transparent in its operations. Dr. Benz concurred.

Chairman Hughes stated that placing the Foundation under the Board of Trustees

authority would have serious financial consequences, e.g., the loss of the Tax Increment

Financing resources, the inability to invest in startup-businesses, immediate liquidation of

equity ownership in research companies evolving from the UofL intellectual property,

and other loss of income.

Mrs. Abrams ended the meeting with a plea for harmony on the board.

III. Adjournment

Having no other business to come before the Board, Chair Hughes made a motion, which

Page 27/53

Mrs. Abrams seconded, to adjourn the meeting at 10:19 a.m. The meeting adjourned.

II. Action Item: Approval of Managerial Group

Chairman Hughes stated the proposed action was routine and reflected changes in Board

membership and administration – Victoria Allen as Student Government President and

student constituency representative; and Neville Pinto as Interim Executive Vice

President and Provost.

Dr. Prather made a motion, which Mr. Hall seconded, to approve the

President’s recommendation that the Board of Trustees adopt the attached

Resolution revising the Managerial Group of the University of Louisville and

waiving of security clearance for officers, Trustees, and directors not a part

of the managerial group; and

that the President be authorized to take any other steps necessary with

regard to agreements or assurances to the Defense Security Service to effect

the facility security clearance of the University of Louisville and clearance of

its personnel including compliance with the provisions of the National

Industrial Security Program Operating Manual or other Federal government

policy relating to safeguarding of classified information.

Page 32/53

The motion passed.

III. Action Item: Approval of Creation of Department of Otolaryngology

Drs. Ganzel and McMasters noted the new department would be formed by combining

the Division of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery and the Division of Audiology

and Speech Pathology, both of which are currently in the Department of Surgery.

This recommendation was consistent with national trends; of the 140 Otolaryngology

programs, all but three are separate departments with audiology and speech pathology

programs as important components of those departments. The creation of the new

department would provide better opportunities for the recruitment and retention of faculty

and residents/fellows in each of the disciplines and would enhance clinical, teaching, and

research collaborations. This department structure would not change any of the degree-

conferring programs in Otolaryngology, Audiology, or Speech Pathology.

Dr. Bingham made a motion, which Mr. Butt seconded, to approve the

The President’s recommendation that the Board of Trustees approve the

establishment of the Department of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck

Surgery and Communicative Disorders.

The motion passed.

IV. Information Session: HSC Update

Dr. Dunn and his team at the Health Sciences Center provided the Board with an update

on the progress being made on the health campus.

The relationship with KentuckyOne Health through the joint operating agreement of 2012

continues to be the centerpiece of programmatic growth for the School. To date,

KentuckyOne Health provided $239 million to the University for education, research and

clinical program development. UofL hired 49 new faculty members as a result of

focused investment in the medical disciplines. Additional funds would help recruit

another 40 faculty. Further, funds for research infrastructure and resources for graduate

medical education continue to flow.

In 2012, independent reviews of the University Medical Center (Hospital) were

conducted by the accounting company of Dixon Hughes Goodman and investment

advising firm Cain Brothers. Both reviews showed the University Medical Center

needed a partner to stay competitive in the health care market. The partnership with

KentuckyOne has provided the capital and technology investments necessary for

University Hospital and the James Graham Brown Cancer Center (formerly UMC) to

remain the focal point of the most advanced medical care in the region. KentuckyOne

Health provided more than $50 million in IT upgrades at University Hospital.

Page 33/53

The School of Medicine team detailed the importance of the relationship with Norton

Healthcare, stating the joint goals were continued collaboration to bring the highest

quality of care to the children of Kentucky and beyond. At the request of the University

of Kentucky, a joint proposal was submitted to develop a statewide cardiovascular care

network and to continue the strong relationship with the Department of Surgery which

provides training for nearly 40 UofL students, residents, and fellows. UK chose to

pursue discussions with the University of Cincinnati. UofL is still under consideration

but not actively at this time.

Dr. Postel provided an update on the progress of the integration of ULP. Achieving

practice integration and increasing clinical revenue were among the goals the Board

established for the Health Sciences Center and are now being achieved. Beginning in

2012, a new governing structure was established and much needed infrastructure and best

practices developed. The organization expects to achieve $7 million in net revenues next

year. He noted the support of the Office of the Executive Vice President for Health

Affairs was pivotal in bridging this successful strategy and ULP is on track to repay the

EVPHA for its investment.

Dr. Ganzel reported the recent focused site-visit by the Liaison Committee on Medical

Education (LCME), the national accrediting body of medical schools for the first two

academic years, was positive. Members of the visiting team were very complimentary

regarding the significant changes to the undergraduate medical education curriculum and

the renovated instructional space. UofL’s investment of $9.6 million in the renovation of

facilities, including a complete modernization of technology renovated teaching space,

update to the health sciences library, assisted UofL in creating an excellent learning

environment for students. Dr. Ganzel said she was very optimistic that when the full

LCME meets in October it will lift UofL’s probation.

Dr. Dunn and his staff then fielded questions from the Board.

V. Executive Session

Pursuant to KRS 61.810(1)(c), Mrs. Abrams made a motion, which Mr. Greenberg

seconded, to enter into Executive Session to discuss litigation matters. The motion

passed.

Dr. Feldhoff left the meeting at 6:15 p.m.

Ms. Haldankar left the meeting at 6:18 p.m.

VI. Open Meeting Reconvenes

Chairman Hughes reconvened the open meeting at 7:30 p.m. and stated litigation matters

were discussed. No action was taken.

VII. Adjournment

Page 34/53

Having no other business to come before the Board, Mr. Benson made a motion, which

CONCERNING TUITION INCREASES AND RELATED CHANGES FOR

ACADEMIC YEAR 2015-16

Finance Committee – May 14, 2015


RECOMMENDATION:

The President recommends that the Board of Trustees approve tuition increases per the attached

schedules for Academic Year (AY) 2015-16. The recommendation is the result of much

deliberation and consultation with the various constituency groups across campus and is

consistent with the tuition rate increase parameters established by the Council on Postsecondary

Education.

TUITION RATE INCREASES:

The Proposed Tuition Schedule below lists the recommended tuition rate changes for

AY 2015-16.

For AY 2015-16 the proposed resident undergraduate tuition rate will increase by three

percent and is consistent with Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE) guidelines

promulgated in April 2014. Those guidelines allow universities to raise resident

undergraduate tuition by no more than eight percent over the two-year 2014-2016

biennium and by no more than five percent in either fiscal year of the biennium. The

University of Louisville raised the resident undergraduate tuition rate by five percent in

AY 2014-15; the University cannot increase the resident undergraduate tuition rate by

more than three percent in AY 2015-16.

The CPE also requires the non-resident undergraduate tuition rate to be at least two times

higher than the resident rate. UofL’s proposed AY 2015-16 non-resident undergraduate

rate is 2.36 times the resident rate.

CONCERNING INCREASE AND APPROVAL OF VARIOUS FEES

ACADEMIC YEAR 2015-16



RECOMMENDATION:

The President recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the new fees and increases to the

existing fees listed below.

College of Arts & Sciences Intensive English program: Increasing the $500 course

fee for students enrolled in the 20-hour per week IELP program. The additional

revenue generated will offset the higher costs associated with the program’s day-to-

day operations and help maintain program quality.

College of Arts & Sciences Physics and Astronomy fee: The Department of Physics

and Astronomy requests a new $50 fee for six physics courses that use computers and

specialized software for weather analysis. The fee will be assessed on courses in the

Bachelor of Science in Atmospheric Science program. The proposed course fee will

affect primarily junior and senior level students.

College of Education and Human Development, Department of Health and Sports

Sciences: A new course fee of $95 for two fitness courses and a $40 course fee will

for three lab courses will help fund the replacement of aging and deteriorating exercise

equipment. The new fees are projected to generate approximately $40,000 in annual

revenue.

Meal Plan Increase: The following meal plan fee changes are due to increased

operating costs and a goal to enhance our levels of customer service:

Increase the resident meal plans by 3%:

Residence hall with a kitchen – increase by $30 to $960 per semester

Residence hall without a kitchen – increase by $45 to $1505 per

semester;

Increase the commuter meal plan from $175 to $200 per semester; and

For Academic Years 2017and 2018, the resident meal plans will be increased

by the Consumer Price Index-Urban, Food Away from Home.

Page 40/53

2

It will be capped at a maximum of three percent annually.

The commuter meal plan cost of $200 per semester will not be increased for

Academic Years 2017 and 2018.

All proposed meal plan increases have been approved by SGA.

Student Housing: Based on projected increases in maintenance and operations costs

and other related programmatic costs, housing rates will increase by three percent for

non-family units and by two percent for family units. This recommendation applies to

the following UofL owned residence halls: Louisville, Medical Dental apartments,

Miller, Threlkeld, Unitas, and University Tower Apartments.

CONCERNING THE PROPOSED BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2015-16



RECOMMENDATION:

The President recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the proposed University

operating budget for Fiscal Year 2015-16, as attached.

BACKGROUND:

The proposed General Fund Operating Budget for the University of Louisville is $511.2

million for the Fiscal Year 2015-16. This is an increase of $13.3 million, or 2.7%, in the

overall budget, including debt service and contractual obligations.

UofL continues to embrace transparency, campus collaboration, and linkage with the strategic

plan in developing a realistic budget. All campus constituencies were briefed throughout the

budget development cycle as successive iterations of the proposed budget were developed and

discussed.

While the University’s state net appropriation for FY 2015-16 is unchanged, an additional

$1.3 million in debt service allocations is provided. After covering fixed costs and other

current expenses, the proposed budget includes investment in strategic initiatives of $10.3

million. The following table identifies the strategic initiatives.

Page 44/53

RECOMMENDATION TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONCERNING PHASED RETIREMENT OF FACULTY



RECOMMENDATION The President recommends: That the Board of Trustees extend the attached Phased Retirement Options for University of Louisville Faculty for a five-year period; and That the Executive Vice President/University Provost reevaluate this policy in the Spring of 2020 for continuation, discontinuation, or change. BACKGROUND Policy is attached. In February 2003, the Board of Trustees authorized the implementation of the subject policy for a two-year period and in February 2005 extended it for five more years; the Board of Trustees extended the subject policy for five years more in February 2010. The policy allows faculty who meet certain criteria to enter retirement through a phased reduction in their university workload assignments. This has been a successful option for faculty and has allowed the units to realize some budgetary savings. To date, fifty-six faculty members have participated in the program. The Executive Vice President/University Provost consulted with Faculty Senate leadership and deans to get feedback on their experience with this policy. The experience of all concerned has been positive and continuation of the policy is recommended. The Executive Vice President/University Provost joins the President in making this recommendation.

PHASED RETIREMENT OPTION FOR UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE FACULTY

I. Objectives: This policy is established for the mutual benefit of the university and of individual faculty members: 1. To provide full-time tenured faculty with an attractive option for gradual reduction in university responsibilities as they near retirement. The plan provides the same full health insurance available to full-time faculty and a continuing University contribution to retirement funds proportional to the percentage of work effort. 2. To permit units and departments to plan over several years for the integrated management and replacement of senior faculty while also utilizing that expertise. 3. To allow departments, units, and the University to phase in replacements of full-time faculty in a manner which benefits the future academic efforts of the University. II. Phased Retirement Plan 1. A single unified plan will be available to each full-time tenured faculty member who has at least ten years of service at the University of Louisville and whose age plus years of service equals at least 70. After an initial two-year trial period during which faculty members may elect to participate, the President shall evaluate the plan for extension. 2. Participants will officially retire effective at the beginning of their phased retirement period to enable them to have access to their retirement benefits. They will be re-employed for no less than 33% or no more than 50% effort yet receive the same health insurance benefits provided to full-time faculty and a retirement fund contribution proportional to the percentage of work effort. Tuition remission benefits available to full-time faculty would remain as well. 3. Once this plan is fully implemented, faculty may participate in the plan for no less than one (1) year nor more than three (3) years. 4. In order to meet department and unit needs, the proposal for participation must be developed as no less than 33% or no more than 50% annual work plan by the department chair in consultation with the other department faculty. 5. Upon recommendation from the department chair, the Dean shall evaluate each request for phased retirement for its consistency with the program’s initiatives and its benefits to the faculty member and the university. The Dean shall then provide the unit recommendation to the Provost. Final approval and decisions on appeals will rest with the Provost. 6. During the phased retirement period, most released CAR or general funds will remain with the unit but may be distributed to the department, following consultation with the Dean. At the end of the phased retirement period, the usual process for retention of the faculty line shall be followed. 7. Term faculty paid from general funds who meet the eligibility requirements may request a phased retirement as a final term contract. The unit has discretion to allow the phased retirement as well as to offer full-time health and tuition benefits under this plan.

8. Schools may develop alternatives for faculty paid from restricted funds, which may include grant funding and/or clinical revenues to permit a phased retirement option while retaining full health and tuition benefits.

CONCERNING THE CREATION OF THE

DOCTOR OF NURSING PRACTICE

RECOMMENDATION:

The President recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the creation of the Doctor of Nursing

Practice (DNP) effective May, 2016.

BACKGROUND:

The Dean of the School of Nursing recommends the creation of the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP).

The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) mandated all programs preparing advanced

practice registered nurses (APRNs) transition to the DNP. Therefore, the School of Nursing (SON) plan is

to transition the current Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) degree with APRN concentrations to the

DNP degree. Currently, the School prepares APRNs for the following concentrations: Adult/Gerontology

Acute Care NP, Adult/Gerontology Primary Care NP, Family NP, Neonatal NP, Psychiatric Mental

Health NP, and Women’s Health NP. The DNP is a professional practice doctoral degree.

The DNP will prepare nurse leaders to:

a. Synthesize and apply knowledge to improve population outcomes

b. Collaborate with other disciplines to improve the delivery of health care

c. Assume clinical, leadership, executive, public policy and/or teaching roles

d. Affect health policy through the application of knowledge.

DNP graduates will be better prepared to manage more complex diseases, especially applicable given the

burgeoning number of elderly coupled with the growing number of clients covered now by the KYnect

Health Insurance Connection mandated by the Affordable Care Act.

The Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) has accredited the baccalaureate and masters’

program at the School of Nursing through 2021. Pursuant to Kentucky Administrative Regulations (201

KAR 20:061 Approval of Doctor of Nursing Practice degree programs) the school will seek accreditation

after the first cohort is enrolled. APRN programs in the U.S. must be accredited by a national nursing

organization (e.g., Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing or the CCNE) in order for

students to sit for national certification.

The Faculty Senate recommended the creation of the Doctor of Nursing Practice at their meeting on May

6, 2015. The Council on Postsecondary Education approved the DNP pre-proposal on April 21, 2015.

The Executive Vice President/University Provost and the Executive Vice President for Health Affairs join

the President in making this recommendation.
