Current Mission Statement:
William & Mary, a public university in Williamsburg Virginia, is the second oldest institution of higher learning in the United States. Established in 1693 by British royal charter, William & Mary is proud of its role as the Alma Mater of generations of American patriots, leaders and public servants. Now, in its fourth century, it continues this tradition of excellence by combining the best features of an undergraduate college with the opportunities offered by a modern research university. Its moderate size, dedicated faculty, and distinctive history give William & Mary a unique charter among public institutions, and create a learning environment that fosters close interaction among students and teachers.
The university's predominantly residential undergraduate program provides a broad liberal education in a stimulating academic environment enhanced by a talented and diverse student body. This nationally acclaimed undergraduate program is integrated with selected graduate and professional programs in five facilities -- Arts and Sciences, Business, Education, Law, and Marine Science. Masters and doctoral programs in the humanities, the sciences, the social sciences, business, education, and law provide a wide variety of intellectual opportunities for students at both graduate and undergraduate levels.
At William & Mary, teaching, research, and public service are linked through programs designed to preserve, transmit, and expand knowledge. Effective teaching imparts knowledge and encourages the intellectual development of both student and teacher. Quality research supports the educational program by introducing students tot eh challenge and excitement of original discovery, and is a source of the knowledge and understanding needed for a better society. The university recognizes its special responsibility to the citizens of Virginia through public and community service to the Commonwealth as well as to national and international communities. Teaching, research, and public service are all integral parts of the mission of William & Mary.
Proposed Mission Statement:
A preeminent, public research university, grounded in the liberal arts and sciences since 1693, William & Mary is a vibrant and inclusive community. Through close mentoring and collaboration, we inspire lifelong learning, generate new knowledge, and expand understanding. We cultivate creative thinkers, principled leaders, and compassionate global citizens equipped for lives of meaning and distinction. William & Mary convenes great minds and hearts to meet the most pressing needs of our time.

WHEREAS, in formulating recommendations for the Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA), the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia notes that much progress has been made under Restructuring and other innovative programs that provide a foundation upon which to implement the Higher Education Opportunity Act; and
WHEREAS, the Council is aware that an effort to build on that foundation must recognize that “one size does not fit all” and that our implementation of the Higher Education Opportunity Act should allow for that diversity; and
WHEREAS, the Council staff presented the “SENSE OF THE COUNCIL” to the Higher Education Advisory Committee in response to its recommendations at its meeting on November 7; and
WHEREAS, the Higher Education Advisory Committee made no further recommendations to the Council; therefore:
BE IT RESOLVED that the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia commends the Council of Presidents and the Higher Education Advisory Committee on its excellent work in meeting its duties under the Higher Education Opportunity Act. The Council accepts the recommendations of HEAC and recommends them with the enhancements noted below to the Governor and the Chairs of the House Committees on Appropriations and Education and the Senate Committees on Finance and on Education and Health as required by § 23-38.87:20.B. of the Code of Virginia:
• The Council supports an incentive for enrollment growth and has recommended amounts equal to its recommendations for the Tuition Assistance Grant program for the four-year institutions -- $2,800 in year one and $3,000 in year two. The Council also recommends $1,800 in year one and $2,000 in year two for the Virginia Community College System and Richard Bland College. The Council does not support the recommendation from the Higher Education Advisory Committee that “some degree-completion threshold be set” for institutions to receive funding for enrollment growth. The Council’s budget recommendations note that enrollment growth derives from three major events: “first time in college” students, transfer students, and retained students. Because all events contribute to the desired outcome – graduation – the Council’s budget recommendations do not include an eligibility requirement for the enrollment growth incentive.
• The Council supports the recommendation of the Higher Education Advisory Committee for criteria for determining which families qualify as “low-income” and “middle-income” for the provision of student financial assistance. The recommendation is that low income would fall below 200% of poverty and middle income would fall between 200% and 400% of poverty. The income limits associated with these amounts vary according to family size. The Council’s budget recommendations include an additional $54 million for student financial aid for the next biennium. Approximately 24 percent of students receiving aid have a family income between $50,000 and $100,000 and, as such, the Council thinks funding for state financial aid has a direct impact on college affordability for thousands of middle-income Virginia families. The Council also recommends increases in the Expected Family Contribution cap for eligibility of the two-year transfer grant program, from $8,000 to $12,000. This change will allow families with incomes of more than $60,000 to participate in the program.
• The Council supports the framework recommended by the Higher Education Advisory Committee for targeted economic and innovation incentive funding. It offers the following specific enhancements to the proposed funding model:
o STEM-H: The Council supports the goal of increasing STEM-H graduates but recommends that policy makers review the emphasis placed on STEM-H and determine a balance that meets the needs of the Commonwealth between STEM-H and non-STEM-H programs and disciplines.
o Enrollment Growth: HEAC has recommended an eligibility requirement that institutions must meet in order to receive funding for enrollment growth. The Council’s budget recommendations do not include an eligibility requirement for the enrollment growth incentive.
o Degree Growth Incentive – Point System: The Council recommends adding a point metric that recognizes improved performance in degree growth and improved performance of degree progression of under-represented students in addition to the volume of degrees.
o Degree Growth Incentive – Efficiency Factor/Revenues per Degree: The Council recommends that the expenditures per degree metric be used as an interim measure as policy makers continue to analyze efficiency factors. The Council will develop an alternate set of peer institutions to be used in this year’s calculation. The alternate set will be based on the statistical model used to determine salary peer groups and consist of an equal number of public peers unique to each Virginia institution.
o Degree Growth Incentive – Efficiency Factor/Graduation Rate: The Council recommends changing the comparison of graduation rate to the salary peer group average. The emphasis should be on improvement of the institution’s graduation rate over time.
• The Council supports a funding model that includes additional general fund appropriations for the cost of education, enrollment growth, and targeted economic and innovation incentives. Because base funding is essential to the efficient and effective operations of all institutions, the Council recommends that it have priority over incentive funding. Assuming a 2:1 ratio of cost of education funding (or a 3:1 ratio of total operating budget), the Council budget recommendations would result in an incentive fund of approximately $80 million for the biennium. These additional funds should become part of the base operating budgets of the institutions. The Council recommends that a single competitive funding pool be established for the 2012-14 biennium and be allocated to four-year institutions, Richard Bland College, and the Virginia Community College System based on an allocation methodology developed by the Council of Presidents with Council modifications.
• The Council further recommends that, working with the Governor and the General Assembly, it should seek ways to incorporate elements of the incentive funding model into the cost of education funding model, i.e., degrees in addition to enrollment.
• While the Higher Education Advisory Committee has made no recommendations on economic opportunity metrics outlined in the Higher Education Opportunity Act, the Council commends staff’s efforts to develop a standard methodology and presentation format of earnings of graduates by program, one and five years post-completion. This is the first phase of a metric of economic opportunity and will provide information not only regarding earnings but also on the numbers of degree completers at all levels that remain within the state, and continuity of employment.
• While the Higher Education Advisory Committee has made no recommendations on additional autonomy and reduced reporting, the Council has a long history of supporting efforts to improve efficiency and accountability.
• The Council supports the Higher Education Advisory Committee consensus on increased funding for the Tuition Assistance Grant program and including students attending private nonprofit institutions in a summer STEM-H internship grant program should such a program be established and funded. The Council also supports options to engage nonpublic institutions in addressing the goals set forth in the HEOA, such as providing incentives for additional STEM-H degrees.

| Higher Education Opportunity Act Targeted Economic and Innovation Incentives Funding
October 25, 2011

WHEREAS, the Council notes that one of the distinguishing factors about the Virginia higher education system is its diversity of institutions and their missions and providing them with appropriate autonomy to achieve Higher Education Opportunity Act Targeted Economic and Innovation Incentives Funding
October 25, 2011
SENSE OF THE COUNCIL
Council Minutes 10-25-11 Page 7 January 10, 2012
WHEREAS, the Council notes that one of the distinguishing factors about the Virginia higher education system is its diversity of institutions and their missions and providing them with appropriate autonomy to achieve those missions; and
WHEREAS, in formulating recommendations for the Higher Education Opportunity Act, the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia notes that much progress has been made under Restructuring and other innovative programs that provide a foundation upon which to implement the Higher Education Opportunity Act; and
WHEREAS, the Council is aware that an effort to build on that foundation must recognize that “one size does not fit all” and that our implementation of the Higher Education Opportunity Act should allow for that diversity; new therefore:
BE IT RESOLVED that the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV) commends the Council of Presidents (COP) and the Higher Education Advisory Committee (HEAC) on its excellent work in developing criteria for allocation of financial incentives outlined in the Higher Education Opportunity Act. The Council supports the recommendations of HEAC with the enhancements noted below:
STEM-H: SCHEV supports the goal of increasing STEM-H graduates but recommends that policy makers review the emphasis placed on STEM-H and determine a balance that meets the needs of the Commonwealth between STEM-H and non-STEM-H programs and disciplines.
Enrollment Growth: HEAC has recommended “some degree-completion threshold be set” for institutions to meet to receive funding for enrollment growth. SCHEV’s budget recommendations note that enrollment growth derives from three major events: “first time in college” students, transfer students, and retained students. Because all events contribute to the desired outcome – graduation – SCHEV’s budget recommendations do not include an eligibility requirement for the enrollment growth incentive.
Degree Growth Incentive – Point System: SCHEV recommends adding a point metric that recognizes improved performance in degree growth and improved performance of degree progression of under-represented students in addition to the volume of degrees.
Degree Growth Incentive – Efficiency Factor/Revenues per Degree: SCHEV recommends that the revenue per degree metric be used as an interim measure as policy makers continue to analyze efficiency factors. SCHEV further recommends that it develop an alternate set of peer institutions to be used in this year’s calculation. The alternate set will be based on the statistical model used to determine salary peer groups and consist of an equal number of public peers unique to each Virginia institution.
Council Minutes 10-25-11 Page 8 January 10, 2012
Degree Growth Incentive – Efficiency Factor/Graduation Rate: SCHEV recommends changing the comparison of graduation rate to the salary peer group average. Instead, the emphasis should be on institution improvement of its graduation rate over time.
Performance Measures: SCHEV staff will work with HEAC as it further develops performance measures related to incentive funding, notably the measures for revenue per degree and graduation rate improvement.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED SCHEV supports a funding model that includes additional general fund appropriations for both cost of education and incentives. Because base funding is essential to the efficient and effective operations of all institutions, SCHEV recommends that it have priority over incentive funding. Assuming a 2:1 ratio of cost of education funding (or a 3:1 ratio of total operating budget), the SCHEV budget recommendations would result in an incentive fund of approximately $80 million for the biennium. These additional funds should become part of the base operating budgets of the institutions. SCHEV further recommends that, working with the Governor and the General Assembly, it should seek ways to incorporate elements of the incentive funding model into the cost of education funding model, i.e., degrees in addition to enrollment.

| BE IT RESOLVED that the State Council of Higher Education approves the following addendum to its 2010-12 budget amendment recommendations:
Budget Addendum Language:
The policies and goals contained in the individual budget amendment items reviewed by the Council at its October 26, 2010 meeting are critical to the quality, affordability, and sustainability of our system of higher education. BE IT RESOLVED that the State Council of Higher Education approves the following addendum to its 2010-12 budget amendment recommendations:
Budget Addendum Language:
The policies and goals contained in the individual budget amendment items reviewed by the Council at its October 26, 2010 meeting are critical to the quality, affordability, and sustainability of our system of higher education. However, the current economic conditions make it necessary to continue to distinguish between the Council's long-term and short-term funding goals for higher education in the Commonwealth.
Long-term goals that have been supported strongly and consistently by the Council include:
1. Providing sufficient financial aid to needy in-state undergraduate students based on the Partnership model and adequate financial aid to graduate students to ensure competitiveness, strengthen our research efforts, and enhance economic development. Also include in this category is our steadfast support for the Tuition Assistance Grant (TAG) program, designed to make private non-profit colleges in Virginia a more affordable option for Virginia residents thus increasing the level of student choice and access to higher education.
2. Securing the funds needed to properly operate and maintain new facility space, address deferred maintenance needs through the Maintenance Reserve program and construct new academic and research facilities based on guideline calculated needs.
3. Reaching full funding under the base adequacy funding guidelines.
4. The acquisition of new and replacement equipment for both instruction and research through the Higher Education Equipment Trust Fund.
5. Raising average faculty salaries to the 60th percentile.
Five consecutive years of general fund budget reductions have put the affordability and accessibility of Virginia's nationally acclaimed system of public higher education at serious risk. Measurements of the student cost share of education and the cost as a percent per capita disposable income at Virginia institutions have both surpassed their highest historical levels. Without the help of the State Fiscal Stabilization (SFSF), part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), the reductions and risk would be much greater. This funding, which is provided over a two-year period, will not be available after September 2011.
In order to preserve our nationally acclaimed system of higher education and ensure the well being of our citizens, the continued pursuit of these long-term goals is a necessity. However, the weak economy and its impact on current state revenues, make it necessary to recommend strategies for higher education in Virginia that focus on the following short-term goals for the 2011 legislative session.
1. We recommend that need-based financial aid for in-state undergraduate students and Virginia Commonwealth awards for graduate students be identified as the highest priority for any additional funding that may be available since our public institutions must rely more and more on revenue raised through tuition increase and additional students to support their basic operating needs and there is currently no increase in financial aid budgeted for this biennium.
1.1 We recommend an additional appropriation of $29.8 million from the general fund in FY2012 and each year thereafter in order to phase-in to a minimum of 70 percent of the Partnership Model guidelines for in-state undergraduate students over a five-year period. The system is currently funded at about 55 percent of guidelines.
1.2 We also recommend an additional appropriation of $5.3 million from the general fund in FY2012 and each year thereafter in order to return to the 1995 award proportionate level (about 13 percent of the cost of tuition and fees) for the Virginia Graduate Commonwealth Award over a five-year period. The primary purpose of this program is to help our institutions attract the best possible graduate students by providing competitive financial packages-which is particularly important in the research-intensive departments.
1.3 We further recommend that funding for the Tuition Assistance Grant (TAG) program, established to assist Virginia residents attending accredited nonprofit independent institutions in Virginia, be increased by $5.8 million from the general fund in FY2012 in order to restore funding levels and attain an undergraduate and graduate maximum annual award of $2,700.
2. We recommend funding for the incremental resources needed by the institutions to operate new facilities. As new E&G and Research facilities come online, incremental resources are needed to provide general maintenance, housekeeping, supervision, grounds maintenance preventive maintenance, utilities and service contracts expenses. Specifically, we recommend n additional appropriation of $33.9 million from the general fund and $46.2 million from nongeneral funds for a total of $80.1 million for the 2010-12 biennium.
It is essential that a long-term financial plan for the future funding of public higher education in Virginia be developed and implemented to ensure that Virginia's world-class system of colleges and universities remain affordable, accessible, sustainable, and vibrant. Doing so will ensure that Virginia's students have an opportunity to obtain an education that enables them to compete in the global marketplace and contribute to a healthy economy within the state. We applaud the Governor's Commission on Higher Education Reform, Innovation and Investment for seeing the value in implementing such a long-term financial plan and look forward to working with the Commission to accomplish this goal.

WHEREAS, the strength of Virginia's higher education system has been a major component of the Commonwealth's economic development efforts, as witnessed by the recent establishment of corporate locations in Virginia by Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), Hilton Worldwide, Rolls Royce, Volkswagen and others who were attracted, in part,because of the superb quality of the higher education system in Virginia and our skilled workforce, and
WHEREAS, we recognize that the Commonwealth, like the rest of the nation, is experiencing an economic crisis that has resulted in unprecedented budget reductions, especially in the higher education arena. For example:
Between 1992 and 2010, general fund appropriations to Virginia public higher education fell from 14% to 11 % of total state appropriations. The net general fund reductions to higher education institutions were $320 million FY2010, equivalent to a 22% reduction over the amended FY2008 funding level.
On a per student basis, general fund appropriations declined by 18% at four-year institutions and 9% at the VCCS between 1992 and 2010.
Virginia ranks 40th for state and local appropriations for higher education. In comparison, Maryland ranked 14th, and North Carolina ranks 7th (Based on data provided by SHEEO's State of Higher Education Funding 2008 Final Report).
The national average for educational appropriation per student was $7,059 in 2008, Virginia's appropriation per student was $5,805.
WHEREAS, students and their families have been forced to shoulder an ever increasing portion of the financial burden through tuition increases, and between 1992 and 2010, tuition revenues have increased by 90% for four-year instuitions and by 86% for the VCCS, and
WHEREAS, these fluctuations in state funding present a tremendous challenge to the well-being of our public higher education institutions and the state's student and families, and
WHEREAS, it is essential that a long-term financial plan for the future funding of public higher education in Virginia be developed and implemented to ensure that Virginia's world-class system of colleges and universities remain affordable, accessible, sustainable, and vibrant. Doing so will ensure that Virginia's students have an opportunity to obtain an education that enables them to complete in the global marketplace and to contribute to a healthy economy within the state, and
WHEREAS, a recent study by the Weldon-Cooper Center estimates that for every dollar spent on higher education, Virginia receives a $1.39 in tax revenue, now therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED that the State Council of Higher Education approves the following addendum to is 2010-12 budget recommendations:
Budget Addendum Language:
It is essential that a long-term financial plan for the future funding of public higher education in Virginia be developed and implemented to ensure that Virginia's world-class system of colleges and universities remain affordable, accessible, sustainable, and vibrant. Doing so will ensure that Virginia's students have an opportunity to obtain an education that enables them to complete in the global marketplace and to contribute to a healthy economy within the state.
To that end,the policies and goals contained in the individual budget items (see list below) reviewed by the Council at its October 27, 2009 meeting, are critical the quality, affordability, and sustainability of our system of higher education, but the current economic conditions necessitate that the Council distinguish between its long-term and short-term goals for higher education in the Commonwealth.
Long-term goals that have been supported strongly and consistently by the Council include:
1. Reaching full funding under the base adequacy funding guidelines.
2. Raising average faculty salaries to the 60th percentile.
3. Acquiring new and replacement equipment for both instruction and research through the Higher Education Equipment Trust Fund.
4. Securing the funds needed to properly operate and maintain new facility space,address deferred maintenance needs through the Maintenance Reserve program,and construct new academic and research facilities based on guideline-calculated needs.
5. Providing sufficient financial aid to needy in-state undergraduate students based on the Partnership model and adequate financial aid to graduate students to ensure competitiveness and strengthen our research efforts.
In order to preserve our nationally acclaimed system of higher education and ensure the well being of our citizens, the continued pursuit of these goals is a necessity. However, the economic crisis in the nation and the Commonwealth makes it necessary to recommend the following strategies for higher education in Virginia that focus on the following short-term goals for the 2010-12 biennium:
1. We recommend that need-based financial aid for in-state undergraduate students and Virginia Commonwealth Awards for graduate students be identified as the highest priority for any additional funding that may be available.
1.1 We recommend raising the current level of guideline support (60.9%) provided for in-state undergraduate students to at least 70% over a four-year phase-in under the Partnership Model. This level of support would require an additional $19.9 million in FY2011 and $38.8 million in FY2012. This detailed calculation, along with two other options-including one that would attain full funding of the Partnership Model goal over four years-will be submitted to the Governor and General Assembly for consideration.
1.2 We also recommend additional funding of $5.9 million in FY2011 and $11.8 million in FY2012 for the Virginia Graduate Commonwealth Award. These funds would represent the first two years of a four-year phase-in to the goal of returning to 1995 student award levels which represented about 13 percent of the cost of tuition and fees. The primary purpose of this program is to help our institutions attract the best possible students by providing competitive financial packages-which is particularly important in the research-intensive departments.
1.3 We further recommend that funding for the Tuition Assistance Grant (TAG) program, established to assist Virginia residents attending accredited nonprofit independent institutions in Virginia be increased by $7.5 million in FY2011 and $9.0 million in FY2012 in order to maintain an undergraduate and graduate maximum award of $3,200 and $1,900 respectively.
2. We recognize that our institutions should be given the flexibility needed to increase tuition appropriately to help offset necessary general fund reductions provided that, as in many states, institutions be encouraged and strongly urged to dedicate at least 5% of such tuition increases (depending on their circumstances) to need-based financial aid for in-state students. This recommendation could very well adversely impact the affordability of our institutions in the short-term, but such flexibility may be necessary in order to preserve an acceptable level of service to our students and their families. Without this flexibility, access to essential course offerings and timely graduation could be at risk. Further, we recommend to the institutions that tuition increases be structured so as to minimize as much as possible-the impact on Virginia students, particularly in-state undergraduates.
3. Finally, we recommend a total appropriation of $12.2 million in FY2012 for debt service on Virginia College Building Authority (VCBA) revenue bonds necessary to finance $148.2 million in equipment, including $27.8 million for a new research equipment initiative through the Higher Education Equipment Trust Fund (HEETF). Given the current fiscal constraints that preclude salary increases, the Council sees the HEETF as an effective, targeted investment that support our institutions and faculty.
While the above short-term goals are set as our funding priorities in the 2010-12 biennium, the Council would like to underscore its commitment to the long-term goals, in particular on the issue of faculty salaries. We are concerned that the average salary of Virginia teaching and research faculty has fallen behind that of their national peers due to two consecutive years of no salary increases. We recognize the Commonwealth is currently having a very difficult budget situation. The Council will monitor the state economic development closely and would like to see the faculty salary issue be addressed as one of the first funding priorities when the state economy grows.

The priority groups to which the projects have been assigned are:
Priority Group "S" (Six-Year Plan)- these are projects which are included included in the legislatively mandated Commonwealth Six-Year Plan (Virginia Acts of Assembly Chapters 46 and 696) and which have the support of the Governor and General Assembly.
Priority Group 1 - these are projects which are fully justified under Council's Fixed Asset Guidelines.
Priority Group 1.B - these are projects which address critical state wide capital outlay needs and which meet some but not all of the space need and space utilization criteria in the Council's Fixed Asset Guidelines.
Priority Group "C" (Cost Overruns) - Council supports the pooled approach to authorizing project supplements. This approach provides for an appropriation to a central account with release of the funds based on an independent review by the Department of General Services to insure that all steps necessary have been taken to complete projects within budget while maintaining the programmatic intent of the project.

The policies and goals contained in the individual budget amendment items (see list below) reviewed by the Council at its October 21, 2008 meeting, are critical to the quality and affordability of our system of higher BE IT RESOLVED that the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia approves the following addendum to its 2008-10 budget amendment recommendations:
Budget Addendum Language
The policies and goals contained in the individual budget amendment items (see list below) reviewed by the Council at its October 21, 2008 meeting, are critical to the quality and affordability of our system of higher education, but the current state revenue shortfall makes it necessary to distinguish between the Council's long-term and short-term goals for higher education in the Commonwealth.
Long-term goals that have been supported strongly and consistently by the Council include:
1) Reaching full funding under the base adequacy funding guidelines
2) Raising average faculty salaries to the 60th percentile
3) Securing the funds needed to properly operate and maintain new facility space and address deferred maintenance needs through the Maintenance Reserve program
4) Providing sufficient financial aid to needy in-state undergraduate students based on the Partnership model and adequate financial aid to graduate students to ensure competitiveness and strengthen our research efforts
In order to preserve our nationally acclaimed system of higher education and ensure the well being of citizens, the continued pursuit of these goals is a necessity. However, the economic crisis now threatening the Commonwealth and the nation as a whole makes it necessary to recommend the following strategies for higher education in Virginia that focus more on short-term goals.
1) We recommend that need-based financial aid for in-state undergraduate students and Virginia Commonwealth awards for graduate students be identified as the highest priority for any additional funding that may be available since there is currently no increase budgeted in the Appropriation Act in the second year of the biennium. We further recommend that the Tuition Assistance Grant (TAG) minimally be continued at the current level to ensure that resident Virginia students have access to higher education.
2) We recommend the use of the base adequacy funding guidelines as a means to equitably reduce institutional budgets if reductions are necessary. In general, institutions that are currently funded at a higher percentage of guidelines could afford a larger reduction than those institutions at the lower end of the scale.
3) We recognize that our institutions should be given the flexibility needed to increase tuition appropriately to help offset any necessary general fund budget reductions provided that, as in many other states, institutions be required to dedicate between 5% and 30% of such tuition increases (depending on their circumstances) to need-based financial aid for in-state students. This recommendation could very well adversely impact the affordability of our institutions in the short-term, but such flexibility may be necessary in order to preserve an acceptable level of service to our students and their families. Without this flexibility, access to essential course offerings and timely graduation could be at risk. Further, we recommend to the institutions that tuition increases be structured so as to minimize-as much as possible-the impact on Virginia students, particularly in-state undergraduates.
Finally we direct our staff to begin preparing a financial plan that will address the growing imbalance in the higher education cost-sharing policy between the Commonwealth and our in-state students and their parents, so that when the economy improves, we can be assured that our acclaimed system of higher education is in a stronger position to meet the challenges of not only today's students but also the students of tomorrow.

WHEREAS, since 2004, corporate sponsorship has allowed the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia to continue the program with monetary awards; and
WHEREAS, Dominion made it original three-year commitment in 2005 to support the annual recognition of the outstanding faculty in Virginia; and
WHEREAS, in 2007, Dominion generously renewed their commitment, extending their corporate sponsorship of the program through 2010; and
WHEREAS, the extension of this partnership will focus public attention on the many outstanding institutions of higher education in Virginia and recognize the exceptional faculty on campuses across the Commonwealth;

| WHEREAS,
1. ODU has requested that it be permitted to operate an "extended campus location" at the Virginia Beach Higher Education Center,
2. The term "extended campus" is not recognized in the Code of Virginia or by SCHEV,
3. § 23-221 of the Code of Virginia provides that no institution of higher learning shall offer courses of study similar to those offered by a comprehensive communi WHEREAS,
1. ODU has requested that it be permitted to operate an "extended campus location" at the Virginia Beach Higher Education Center,
2. The term "extended campus" is not recognized in the Code of Virginia or by SCHEV,
3. § 23-221 of the Code of Virginia provides that no institution of higher learning shall offer courses of study similar to those offered by a comprehensive community college, "except as authorized by the State Council of Higher Education."
4. The Council believes that in exercising the discretion conveyed by the Statute, the Council needs to balance the goals of (1) safeguarding the mission of the community college system to provide broad access in higher education to students on an economically efficient basis with (2) the desirability of providing student choice between a four-year institution and a two-year institution.
5. Especially in metropolitan areas, where commuting times can be burdensome and there is adequate total demand to support viable and robust community colleges, student choice is an important factor in exercising SCHEV's discretion.
6. Nothing in this resolution establishes a precedent that cooperation among four-year institutions and community colleges is not the guiding state principle. This resolution should not be taken as an invitation to other institutions to take actions that SCHEV determines unnecessarily duplicate courses in a manner inconsistent with SCHEV's obligation to assure fiscal responsibility.
BE IT RESOLVED that the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV), acting pursuant to Virginia Code Section 23-221, grants approval to Old Dominion University (ODU) to offer 4-year baccalaureate programming at the Virginia Beach Higher Education Center (VBHEC), subject to the following conditions:
1. that ODU's 4-year baccalaureate programs and lower division courses at the VBHEC be available only to individuals admitted through the standard admissions process at ODU;
2. that the 4-year baccalaureate programs available at the VBHEC be limited to those listed in the proposal summary in this Agenda Item prepared by SCHEV staff;
3. that the number of sections of lower division courses offered by ODU at the VBHEC be kept at the level in its proposal-a maximum of 25 course sections (out of 300-350 per semester);
4. that approval be granted for a period of five years, beginning in fall 2007, with annual interim reports to be provided by Old Dominion University, (ODU), Tidewater Community College (TCC) and Norfolk State University (NSU) to the Council on the status and impact of 4-year baccalaureate programming at VBHEC on ODU and TCC enrollments in 100 and 200 level classes, the space utilization of VBHEC, the increased numbers of students/graduates in critical shortage professions, and student demand for the implemented programs; and that a subsequent report be provided by ODU to the Council in fall 2011;
5. that ODU reach out at the earliest possible date, but no later than June 2007, to TCC and NSU regarding expanded collaborations in offering joint baccalaureate programming within the Princess Anne Commons that create greater opportunities for higher education learning in Virginia Beach; toward that end, SCHEV shall strongly encourage TCC and NSU to participate in that joint effort; and that the progress of these discussions be reported annually to SCHEV, with the final outcome to be included in the report required under 4 above;
6. that any future plans by ODU to alter the programming at the VBHEC beyond the conditions listed above be subject to the Council's authorization before implementation; and
7. consideration by SCHEV to extend approval beyond the 2011-12 academic year of ODU's programming shall be conditioned upon compliance with the provisions set forth in 1-6 above, including the outcome of discussions with TCC and NSU on expanded collaboration and such other factors as may be relevant at that time;
8. all parties involved in VBHEC are encouraged to adhere to the spirit and letter of this resolution. Any actions determined by SCHEV to violate that guidance may result in revocation of this approval.

WHEREAS, Chapter 3 of the 2006 Virginia Acts of Assembly requires the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia, in consultation with the Health Care Workforce Task Force, to develop and recommend criteria for awarding additional state funds via a competitive grant process to innovative regional public-private sector partnerships that seek to maximize the number of newly licenses nurses and increase the supply of graduate nursing faculty; and
WHEREAS, the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia has a record of supporting additional state funds for increased nursing enrollments, graduates, and faculty and has endorsed collaborative public-private partnerships designed to leverage the resources of healthcare facilities and nursing education providers in an effort to address the Commonwealth's registered nursing shortage; now, therefore be it

| WHEREAS the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV) reaffirms its long-standing commitment to keeping a college education affordable and within reach for Virginia students; and
WHEREAS SCHEV believes the Commonwealth has made tremendous progress in making a college education more affordable to its citizens as evidenced by Virginia’s improved rankings relative to other states and WHEREAS the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV) reaffirms its long-standing commitment to keeping a college education affordable and within reach for Virginia students; and
WHEREAS SCHEV believes the Commonwealth has made tremendous progress in making a college education more affordable to its citizens as evidenced by Virginia’s improved rankings relative to other states and peer institutions; and
WHEREAS SCHEV recognizes in the challenging fiscal and state budget environment, the Governor and General Assembly may choose to lift the tuition freeze, thereby allowing Virginia’s public colleges and universities to raise tuition and mandatory E&G fees for in-state, undergraduate students; now therefore
BE IT RESOLVED THAT SCHEV is deeply concerned that while trying to minimize the impact of budget reductions on colleges and universities, the Commonwealth does not return to double-digit annual tuition increases experienced in the early 1990’s;
BE IT ALSO RESOLVED THAT SCHEV recommends that should the Governor and General Assembly agree to remove the tuition freeze on in-state, undergraduate students, then the Commonwealth also ought to take steps to minimize the impact on those students. Among these steps, the Commonwealth should include requiring, first and foremost, that the institutions’ governing boards set tuition rates for out-of-state students, graduate students, and first professional students, at least at market rate without adversely impacting the access of in-state students to Virginia’s public colleges and universities;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT SCHEV recommends that in the absence of a tuition freeze, the Governor and General Assembly give the institutions’ governing boards limited discretion on tuition and fee increases for in-state, undergraduate students and that the governing boards consider at least the following factors in setting tuition and fee rates for Virginia undergraduates:
- the consumer price index;
- the share of cost borne by the student;
- tuition and fee rates at public peer institutions;
- availability of student financial aid;
- alternatives to achieve potential cost savings and reduction of administrative and other costs as opposed to tuition increases;
- reduction of duplicative and non-productive programs and the use of alternative and less costly, but not less effective, methods to provide educational courses;
- the impact of a tuition increase on the increased quality, quantity, and diversity of the institutions’ applicant pools;
- the adoption of additional benchmarks and reports to assist the governing board in focusing appropriate resources on the educational mission of the institution;
- impact of increased tuition on consumer and other debt incurred by students and parents; and
- consider a four-year tuition and fee contract to assure students and their parents of the total cost of attending and graduating from the institution within the time required to obtain the designated degree, in most cases four years.
BE IT ALSO RESOLVED THAT SCHEV recommends that the Governor and General Assembly monitor tuition increases through SCHEV’s annual report on tuition and fees required under Section 4-2.01, b2a. of the Appropriation Act and other documentation as may be appropriate.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT SCHEV recommends that should the Governor and General Assembly agree to allow an increase in tuition and mandatory E&G fees for in-state, undergraduate students, the Commonwealth also should help offset its impact by sufficient and concomitant increases in general fund support for state financial aid to ensure that Virginia’s most financially needy students will continue to have an opportunity to benefit from all that a Virginia college education has to offer.

| BE IT RESOLVED that the Council of Higher Education: (a) approves the study of general education, including the list of recommended characteristics of general education programs; and (b) adopts and transmits to the institutions of higher education the recommendations printed below.

The Council of Higher Education makes the following specific recommendations concerning general education programs.
Institutions and their Boards of Visitors, if they haven't already done so, should:
state and make widely known across campus the rationale and student learning goals for their general education programs;
define what they mean by an educated person;
define strategies to meat their student learning goals;
require their students to complete at least 40 credits in general education;
set criteria that determine which courses are appropriate for general education, and periodically review those courses to determine if they continue to meet the goals of the general education program;
require that all students gain competency in writing, oral communication, mathematics, natural or physical science, social sciences, foreign languages (through the intermediate level), humanities, and history (including U. S. history), in ways that best meet institutional curricular rationales and designs;
provide funds for faculty development related to general education programs;
develop mechanisms for faculty oversight, periodic review, and revision;
develop ways to strengthen faculty ownership of the general education program or courses within it;
use multiple methods to assess their programs and use data gathered to improve them;
insure that class size is appropriate to subject mater, level of instruction, and the need for class discussion; and
request periodic reports on how well students meet the general education goals set by the institution.
Moreover, the Council of Higher Education makes the following general recommendations concerning areas in which institutions might focus attention in improving their general education programs:
(1) Each institution should emphasize acquiring intellectual skills as an important rationale for a general education program.
(2) Each institution should include in a rationale for general education discussion of its general education program's importance to our polity, our economy, and our cultural heritage.
(3) Each institution should ensure that students gain breadth of knowledge through the general education experience, as a complement to the depth of knowledge gained through the major.
(4) Each institution should develop its own appropriate balance of emphasis on skill development and emphasis on content knowledge in its general education program.
(5) Each institution should judge deliberately when such special features as honors courses, freshman seminars, and service learning are appropriate for a general education program and include review of those special features in assessments of the general education program.
(6) Each institution should examine the number of course titles that may satisfy each general education requirement and seek to limit the range of such choices.
(7) Institutions with general education requirements that vary among multiple units or by degree type should seek to minimize those differences in general education requirements.
(8) Each institution should review its practices with respect to placing out of general education requirements and limit the percentage of requirements that may be satisfied in this way.
(9) Each institution should establish clear oversight responsibility for its general education program.
(10) Each institution should formally review its general education programs as part of the institution's regular cycle of academic program reviews and conduct a comprehensive review not less than once each decade.
(11) SCHEV staff will alter its data collection from the institutions so that its inventory will reflect the courses meeting general education requirements.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the Council also recommends to the Governor and General Assembly that the first priority for additional appropriations for public colleges and universities be faculty salary increases of 4% to 6%. Such increases, consistent with the budget language, will not be applied across the board, but only to those schools which have pre- and post-tenure faculty review policies satisfactory to the Council and to the Secretary of Education. Should funds for such increases not be appropriated due to the unavailability of resources, the Council in recognition that colleges and universities view faculty salary increases as a major priority, urges institutions to use savings achieved through restructuring for faculty salary increases.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the Council recommends that the second priority for additional appropriations be additional student financial assistance in recognition of the laudable goal of meeting one-half of the tuition and fee-related need of Virginia undergraduates. In the same manner that the Council recognizes that any additional financial assistance will move the Commonwealth closer to its goal of meeting financial aid need.
Specially, the Council recommends the following:
General Fund Appropriations

Position Adjustments (2.7)
Faculty Salary Increases 18.6
Student Financial Assistance 24.9

| RESOLVED: The State Council of Higher Education for Virginia, having received and reviewed the report of the hearing officer, dated July 31, 1987, on the formal appeal of Northern Virginia Law School from the resolution of the Council on August 6, 1986, such appeal being heard by the hearing officer in proceedings conducted February 27, 1987, in accordance with Section 23-271.B of the Council's R RESOLVED: The State Council of Higher Education for Virginia, having received and reviewed the report of the hearing officer, dated July 31, 1987, on the formal appeal of Northern Virginia Law School from the resolution of the Council on August 6, 1986, such appeal being heard by the hearing officer in proceedings conducted February 27, 1987, in accordance with Section 23-271.B of the Council's Regulations Governing the Approval of Certain Institutions to Confer Degrees, Diplomas and Certificates (adopted July 1, 1980), determines that it is in the public interest not to accept the recommendation of the hearing officer to grant an additional extension of provisional approval to the institution to confer Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree in the Commonwealth. Accordingly, the resolution of the Council of Higher Education August 6, 1986, is affirmed.
On the basis of the record, the Council finds and so determines that: the institution has been on notice since at least October 1980 that it must gain requisite accreditation with an accrediting body recognized by the United states Department of Education; the Council, in accordance with subsection B of Section 23-269 of the Code of Virginia and Section 23-269.B.3, of its 1980 regulations, stipulated in its initial grant of provisional approval April 7, 1982, and in subsequent extensions of provisional approval dated April 5, 1984, and May 1, 1985, that the institution must make satisfactory progress toward gaining accreditation with a recognized accrediting body; and the institution has not obtained requisite accreditation from any recognized accrediting body, notwithstanding two extensions of provisional approval from the Council to assist it in this regard. The Council accordingly determines that the institution already has been granted more than reasonable time and opportunity to gain accreditation.
The Council also determines that the record fails to establish that the institution has taken reasonable and timely steps to gain the requisite accreditation. In addition, the institution has not presented to the Council adequate evidence that its appointment of a full-time faculty member, as established in its letter of May 16, 1987, attached to the hearing officer's report, satisfies the criteria for appointing a Candidate Committee or that the institution has the minimum four full-time faculty appointments required for the accreditation of a graduate-level institution.
The Council authorizes the institution to offer the courses necessary to enable students who were enrolled prior to June 1, 1986, to complete the requirements for the Juris Doctor degree and to award the degree to those who complete the program, provided the institution complies with the three stipulations set forth in the said August 6, 1986, resolution of the Council.
The foregoing constitutes the final action of the Council on this appeal in accordance with Section 23-271.B. of the 1980 approval regulations. This action shall not prejudice the institution if it chooses to file a new application for approval to confer degrees in accordance with Council regulations applicable at the time of such filing.

Faculty Salary Increases: The Council recommendations anticipate further revisions to the faculty salary benchmark system, and embody general policy that can be applied to each institution's current or pending benchmark system. The Council took the following actions:
Reaffirmed its previous recommendation that each institution receive salary increases sufficient over the next three years to achieve the 60th percentile of its group by 1990 and that all institutions should be at the 75th percentile of their peer group by 1992.
Recommended that funds sufficient to support a ten percent across-the-board increase be set aside pending determination of the benchmark lists that will be used. Increases sufficient to reach the 60th percentile objective should be spread approximately evenly over the next three years.
Recommended that increases be awarded differentially, based upon how far each institution is from meeting its objective.
Recommended that the estimated national salary increase be established as a minimum for any Virginia institution already at or above the goal of the 60th percentile, so that progress resulting from the significant increases in faculty salaries over the last three years should not be lost.
Higher Education Trust Fund Allocation:
The Council's recommendations are based on its earlier recommendation that allocation of funds for 1986-87 reflect equal emphasis on engineering, academic computing and obsolete equipment. The council took the following actions:
Recommended a funding policy for the replacement of research equipment and new equipment for graduate engineering that would require an equal match from federal grants and contracts, industrial gifts, endowment funds, or other private sources.
Recommended that institutions with fewer than 2,500 FTES receive at least $50,000, and that institutions with more that 2,500 FTES receive at least $100,000.

The Council directed its staff to work with the staff of the Department of Planning and budget to provide the required documentation for the budget document.

The Council recommended that the Secretary of Education support a study of the administrative computing needs, both hardware and software, of the comprehensive colleges and universities. The Council further recommended that the study be conducted in participation with the Department of Accounts, Department of Planning and Budget, department of Information Technology, and the state-supported comprehensive college and universities at a maximum cost of $50,000.
Student Financial Assistance:
The Council recommended that institutional financial aid appropriations be increased to offset anticipated increases in required tuition and fees for 1987-88. The amount of the increase needed should be calculated after decisions about major amendments, such as faculty salaries, are made. Additional financial aid should be provided at the ratio of one dollar of financial aid for each seven dollar increase in required tuition and fees.
Virginia Community College System Tuition and Fees:
The Council supported the request of the VCCS for funds in 1987-88 to continue the system's 1986-87 reduction in tuition and fees. The Council recommended that the VCCS' current policy be revised to calculate the tuition and fees of all Virginia enrollments at 20 percent of cost. The Council recommended that out-of-state enrollments continue to be calculated at 100 percent of cost. The Council further recommended that the policy should be applied considering the revised estimates of VCCS enrollments and any adjustments to the budget for 1987-88.

RESOLVED: The Council of Higher Education extends its authorization of Chapman College to offer the following degree programs at its Fort Lee Residence Education Center (REC) for a period not to exceed 90 days: the M.B.A. in Business Administration and the M.A. in Counseling Psychology. To qualify for full approval by the Council, Chapman College must meet the following four conditions within the 90-day period:
1. Chapman College must provide evidence, in accordance with Standard #13, (a) that each REC Instructor or adjunct faculty member teaching in its programs at the Fort Lee REC possesses a degree in the field in which the program is offered or (b) that each such faculty member demonstrates competence by virtue of prior experience or academic training, or both which are related to the field in which the instruction is offered.
2. Chapman College must demonstrate that it has at least one academically qualified, full-time faculty member teaching in each of its two master's degree programs at the Fort Lee REC, in accordance with Standards #13 and #14.
3. Chapman College must present evidence, that the requirements for completing its two master's degree programs at the Fort Lee REC are identical to those at the home campus, in accordance with sub-section C.2. of Section 23-269 of the Council's regulations.
4. Chapman College must present evidence that it is making available adequate library resources to support master's degree work in its two programs at the Fort Lee REC and is allocating at least five percent of its total Educational and General (E&G) budget for the Fort Lee REC to library resources. In demonstrating compliance with Standards #17 - 20, Chapman College should consider entering into contractual or other arrangements with one or more institutions of higher education in the Fort Lee area, in accordance with Standard #21.
Chapman College must demonstrate in writing to the Director of the Council, prior to October 5, 1981, that the institution is in full compliance at its Fort Lee REC with the Council's regulations, including the four conditions stated above. If Chapman College demonstrates such full compliance by October 5, 1981, then the Council, at its next scheduled meeting, will reconsider the application and grant full approval to the institution at its Fort Lee REC.
The Council also endorsed the Site Visit Committee's recommendation that Chapman College give serious consideration to the following suggestions for improving library services at its Fort Lee REC:
(a) Library hours should be expanded, At a minimum, the Army Logistics Library should be open one evening each week and a few hours each weekend.
(b) Bound periodicals should be consolidated with the mongraphic collections at the Army Logistics Library. Presumably this would require expansion of the facility, but it would be a worthwhile and important long-range goal.
(c) Serious thought should be given to establishing a union catalog for the two libraries at Fort Lee. Although retrospective and conversion would be expensive, such a catalog could pay real dividends in time.
(d) The Army Logistics Library should establish a formal program of bibliographic instruction and should coordinate with Chapman College some regular means of acquainting new students with library services.

Declining numbers of 18-21 year-olds in Virginia''s population, along with even greater declines in other states, will probably result in fewer student desiring dormitory accommodations in the later years of this decade. Some of Virginia's less selective non-urban universities may find it difficult to fill their dormitories if additional dormitories are constructed at the urban universities.
For this reason, the Council of Higher Education does not recommend construction of additional student housing at Old Dominion University of the other urban universities.
If the General Assembly determines nevertheless that such construction should be authorized, the Council recommends that it be authorized at all four urban universities according to two general principles which would control the amount of student housing constructed.
First, while each university's needs will differ and should be assessed separated, urban universities generally should not be authorized through 1982-84 to have more than .25 available beds per full time residential student.
Second, urban universities should not build student housing as a way of recruiting more students, or to house students from the immediately surrounding area.
The Council further directed that the above recommendation be forwarded to the General Assembly and to Old Dominion University.

The recommendations of the Council are listed below:
1. The Council recommends that the Virginia General Assembly express its concern about the national financial aid situation and that the leadership of the Assembly urge the Governor to call the attention of the new administration to the student aid crisis.
The federal government should take action regarding the following items:
A. The Guaranteed Student Loan program should be modified in order to control its cost. Specifically, the federal government should subsidize GSL loans only if they are of last resort and are really needed by a student or family, as determined by a standardized needs test. At a minimum, the federal government should establish an income ceiling beyond which a student would not qualify for the federal interest subsidy which is now paid while the student remains in school.
B. The method of calculating student need and family ability to contribute toward educational expenses should be revised so that families with incomes between $15,000 and $30,000 are not penalized as they are under federal methodology adopted in Education Amendments of 1980.
2. The Council recommends that the funding for the College Scholarship Assistance Program be significantly increase. However, if sufficient State funding is not available to accomplish this goal, the Council recommends that the General Assembly consider alternative proposals for using the program to assist a limited group of students rather than continue the present effort to aid all students with financial need. One alternative might be to target the awards toward students with a particular need, for example, those from middle income families. A second alternative might be to develop a program which used both financial need and academic merit as criteria for receiving an award.
3. The Council reaffirms its support for a per-student Tuition Assistance Grant program award of $900 and recommends that the award increase to this level for the 1981-82 academic year.
4. The Council recommends that a bill pre-filed for the 1981 session of the General Assembly which would extend Tuition Assistance Grant program awards to graduate students should not be enacted.
5. The Council recommends that the institutional appropriations for student assistance not continue to decline. Instead, it is recommended that the institutional appropriations increase from a total of $3.1 million to a level of $3.75 million annually and then be stabilized at that level, except for periodic adjustments for inflation, on the premise that the federal programs and the Commonwealth's statewide need-based program (CSAP) should be principally relied upon to meet the financial need of undergraduate students.
6. The Council recommends that Section 4.10.01 (a) of the Appropriations Act be changed to allow an institution to use more than 50 percent of its institutional appropriation to provide grants to graduate students.
7. By 1982-83, the Council and the institutions will have completed a review of the commonwealth Incentive Grant Program in order to determine if it has met its objectives or if the funds could be used more beneficially in providing other forms of student assistance.
8. It is recommended that the Directors of the Council, the State Education Assistance Authority, and the Virginia Education Loan Authority agree to meet every six months to review the status of financial aid in the State and to seek ways to improve the coordination of the Guaranteed Load program with the other federal and State programs.
9. The Director of the Council will invite all agency heads who administer one or more financial aid programs to convene annually in order to discuss the status of financial aid in Virginia and to seek ways to improve coordination among all aid programs.
10. The Council recommends that the General Assembly modify the student aid language in the Appropriations Act to permit an institution, at its discretion, to use a portion of its institutional student aid appropriation to assist part-time students. The Council recommends that the CSAP program be opened to part-time students if the funding for the program reaches a level which permits the Council to make larger awards to recipients or if the program is modified to assist a targeted group of students.
11. The Council recommends that no action be taken to convert CSAP into a portable program in the near future.
12. The Council emphasizes that the Guaranteed Loan should be pursued by a student only when absolutely necessary in order to meet total educational costs. Therefore, it urges financial aid officers and institutions to forego using the program as the foundation of a student's aid package.
13. The Council will organize a statewide workshop, or a number of regional workshops, as appropriate, for high school guidance counselors in order to provide more information about financial aid programs. The Council will also use a portion of the funds provided to it through the federal Education Information Services program to prepare informational materials which can be distributed in the high schools in order to provide additional information about the aid programs. Finally, the Council will prepare and disseminate public service announcements which can be used on both radio and television in an effort to provide more information to prospective students.

The study, requested by House Bill 419 of the 1980 Session of the General Assembly, considered graduate engineering and high technology education, especially in Northern Virginia and Richmond-Petersburg, and recommended ways in which urban institutions and others might cooperate to meet the engineering needs of Northern Virginia and the Richmond-Petersburg area. Council also directed that the study be transmitted to the Governor and the General Assembly. The recommendation of the Council are listed below.
1. Northern Virginia:
a. Council approved several George Mason programs in computer science, operations research, information systems, computer electronics and design to meet need for graduate high technology. These should be offered cooperatively with Old Dominion, and with the University of Virginia and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University as appropriate.
b. Three graduate engineering schools (ODU, UVA, VPI&SU)continue or increase off-campus offerings in traditional engineering in Northern Virginia. Off-campus engineering should be funded at on-campus levels.
c. George Mason seek an agreement with the University of Maryland under which Maryland's television and two-way voice capacity can be used to offer graduate engineering in Northern Virginia on a trial basis for one year. If successful, Virginia should consider equipping its graduate engineering schools to offer similar programs across the state. Funds necessary for such an agreement should be appropriated as a separate line item either to GMU or to the Council of Higher Education for subsequent transfer to GMU.
d. The Council of Higher Education, acting on behalf of the Commonwealth, should seek contracts for spaces in the five undergraduate engineering programs in the metropolitan Washington area (Maryland, George Washington, Catholic, University of the District of Columbia, and Howard University).
2. Richmond-Petersburg
a. Three graduate engineering schools (ODU, UVA, VPI&SU) continue or increase off-campus offerings in traditional engineering in Richmond-Petersburg. Off-campus engineering should be funded at on-campus levels.
b. Virginia State and Virginia Commonwealth develop cooperative engineering programs for undergraduates, consisting of two or three years at VSU or VCU; work experience in Richmond-Petersburg industry; transfer to ODU, VPI&SU or UVA with formal education and work experience alternated over three years until the degree is earned. This classic "cooperative education" pattern has been used for years by Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts.
3. Statewide
a. Virginia's institutions offering engineering and Virginia Commonwealth University, Virginia State University and George Mason University should form an engineering education planning group to perform the following tasks:
1. coordinate off-campus engineering program offerings, and draw the Council's attention to any logistical or funding problems that arises;
2. monitor the trial use of closed circuit television as a means of providing instruction, and report to the Council with recommendations;
3. develop the agreements necessary to begin cooperative undergraduate engineering programs in the Richmond-Petersburg area; and
4. assist VSU in developing transfer agreements with two-year institutions to enable their students to continue work toward bachelor's degree in engineering technology.
The Engineering education planning group should elect a person representing one of the institutions as it convening officer, and should make a report on its activities to the Council of Higher education in the Fall of each year at a minimum. The Council should assist the planning group in its activities, and a member of the Council staff should be a member ex officio of the group.

The Institute's Board of Administration should cease The Council unanimously approved the study as amended for transmittal to the Governor and the General Assembly. The principal recommendations contained in the study are as follows:
1) "The Virginia Institute of Marine Science should be merged once again with the College of William and Mary and become the College's School of Marine Science. The Institute's Board of Administration should cease to exist, and the Institute's statutory responsibilities should be assigned to The College of William and Mary. As part of The College of William and Mary, the Virginia Institute of Marine Science would be subject to the guidelines for operating and capital outlay budgets used by all state-supported colleges and universities, and to all other policies and procedures which apply to the College.
2) "The great number of statutorily mandated services provided by the Virginia Institute of Marine Science to industry, other State agencies, and Virginia citizens are extremely important and should be continued under the auspices of the The College of William and Mary. The College's statement of mission should be modified to reflect these new responsibilities.
3) "Consortium should be formed, composed of those institutions which offer graduate marine science programs: Old Dominion University, the University of Virginia, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, and The College of William and Mary. This consortium, to be named the Virginia Graduate Marine Science Consortium, should promote greater cooperation among the institutions, advance marine science education in the Commonwealth, and improve Virginia's position in seeking funding from federal and other sources. The consortium should be formed by compact among the institutions.
4) "The Virginia Graduate Marine Science Consortium should be guided by a full-time administrator experienced in marine science education and without affiliation with any of the member institutions. The administrator also should be the Director of Virginia's Sea Grant effort.
5) "The Virginia Graduate Marine Science Consortium should be funded by a state appropriation for operating expenses. The public service function of this consortium could be seen as having the greatest practical economic impact of any higher education public service function in the Commonwealth. The economics of the ocean are in their infancy, and the marine science public service function can only be timely and useful if it is based on the most current research in the discipline. This service must not be allowed to wither in academic discussions with their endless nuances that can be characteristic of consortium operations. On the basis of examination of Sea Grant activities in other states, the Council of Higher Education strongly urges and recommends that the sum of $200,000 annually be available to the consortium administrator to use as matching funds for research grants obtained from other sources."
The Council emphasized that its recommendations should be recognized as closely inter-related and acted upon accordingly. It noted that "selective enactment of the recommendations will not produce acceptable results."

| The State Council of Higher Education has carefully considered The Virginia Plan for Equal Opportunity in State-Supported Institutions of Higher Education, Civil Rights, Department of Health, Education and Welfare. This plan will require the Council to undertake a number of studies and assume a variety of additional responsibilities.

This plan will require the Council to undertake a number of studies and assume a variety of additional responsibilities.
To the extent authorized by law, the Council agrees to assume the additional responsibilities assigned to it, so doing, the Council is fulfilling its statutory responsibility to "conduct such ... studies in the field of higher education... as may be requested by the Governor or the General Assembly." In addition the Council will continue to provide the services which it has provided under the previous plan for equal opportunity in higher education which was accepted by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare in 1974.
The Council has other specific statutory duties through which it is charged to "promote the development and operation of an educationally and economically sound, vigorous, progressive and coordinated system of higher education in the Commonwealth of Virginia" (Virginia Code, Section 23-9.3). The Council is convinced that all of its work is important for the good health of Virginia higher education, and its is, therefore, firmly committed to fulfill its statutory duties to the best of its ability. The tasks assigned to the Council by the new plan to promote equal opportunity in higher education were not anticipated in preparing its budget request for the 1978-80 biennium, and the Council has not been appropriated sufficient resources to accomplish these tasks. The Council must, therefore, request of Governor Dalton the assistance of other central state agencies and supplemental staff and operating funds. A detailed assessment of the additional resources required will be presented shortly.

| The following position statement was adopted by the Council:
COUNCIL POSITION ON STATE AID TO PRIVATE HIGHER EDUCATION
Virginia's private institutions are among the oldest and most respected in the nation. They offer a diversity of choice for the Commonwealth's students and serve to educate a large number of Virginians for whom public facilities and services must otherwise e provided. Ever The following position statement was adopted by the Council:
COUNCIL POSITION ON STATE AID TO PRIVATE HIGHER EDUCATION
Virginia's private institutions are among the oldest and most respected in the nation. They offer a diversity of choice for the Commonwealth's students and serve to educate a large number of Virginians for whom public facilities and services must otherwise e provided. Every appropriate and beneficial effort should be supported which assists their continued existence and helps assure students who elect to attend then an opportunity to do so.
The proposal to seek legislation which allows the State and its political subdivisions to enter into contractual arrangements with the private institutions for educational services has mutual benefit for the Commonwealth and the private institutions. The proposal should, therefore, be supported.
Similarly, the request to seek legislation to amend the College Scholarship Assistance Program to provide grants, based on need, to students attending private institutions not only has mutual benefit but helps to foster the diversity we seek to guarantee. This request also deserves support.
The Council continues to believe, however, that there are more beneficial, and perhaps more appropriate, methods for assisting private higher education than by converting the Tuition Assistance Loan Program into a non-need-based grant program. This opinion, arrived at after considering alternative approaches to aiding private higher education, is motivated by a desire to see that State funds are used wisely and are ultimately targeted into a program which will have maximum, positive impact in assisting the continued survival of the State's private institutions.
We cannot at this time recommend the tuition assistance grant approach as the program which will offer the kind of assistance needed by the private institutions. Neither will it in our judgment, ever serve to attract large numbers of additional students to the private institutions. In fact, our research shows that it would require between $9.5 million and $10 million biennially just to provide $400 grants to all those Virginia students already enrolled in the State's private institutions.
There is no question but that private institutions, in Virginia and elsewhere, are suffering serious economic hardship and that students who would like to attend such institutions are being prevented from doing so. But the seriousness of the situation calls nor for quick and precipitous action, but for a deliberate and reasoned approach. It seems imperative, therefore, that Virginia first determine to what extent it would choose, and can afford, to aid private higher education and then develop a program to achieve that maximum benefit with the available dollars. In accordance with this view, we believe that no change should be made in Tuition Assistance Loan Program during 1975-76 and that the Council should use the period of time to undertake a thorough study of State aid to private higher education. The Ccouncil's study should especially focus on determining methods of assistance which will allow Virginia's students maximum freedom in selecting an educational institution. The Council's recommendations should be transmitted to the Governor and the General Assembly prior to the 1976 Assembly session.
Finally, we recommend that if the General Assembly eventually determines that the present Tuition Assistance Loan Program should be converted into a grant and load program during 1975-76, the change should serve only as an interim step while a permanent program is devised. The entire question of State aid to private higher education should be considered at the 1976 session, following the publication of the Council's in-depth study.

| The attached policy statement on continuing higher education regional consortia was adopted by the Council and the Director was requested to circulate it to the appropriate institutions and individuals.
POLICY STATEMENT ON CONTINUING HIGHER EDUCATION REGIONAL CONSORTIA
The regional institutions in each consortium will provide continuing education credit opportunities in those discipline area The attached policy statement on continuing higher education regional consortia was adopted by the Council and the Director was requested to circulate it to the appropriate institutions and individuals.
POLICY STATEMENT ON CONTINUING HIGHER EDUCATION REGIONAL CONSORTIA
The regional institutions in each consortium will provide continuing education credit opportunities in those discipline areas in which they are authorized by the Council of Higher Education, assuming institutional resources are available. The comprehensive universities and other institutions non-resident in the consortium region will supplement the offering of the resident institutions.
If a regional institution gains approval to offer a program that is currently provided by acomprehemsive university, the comprehensive university will phase out its program (or courses) over a mutually agreed period of time. Cooperative programs between institutions are encouraged.
Lower level credit offerings will be the responsibility of the community colleges. If it is determined that a community college cannot fulfill certain needs, then the consortium board should decide which four-year institution can best fill the need.
In summary, regional institutions will meet continuing education credit instructional needs at the upper, master's, professional, and doctoral levels (in those discipline areas in which they are authorized); community colleges will meet continuing education credit needs at the lower level; and the comprehensive institutions will meet credit needs in master's doctoral, and professional discipline areas not available from the regional institutions.
Each consortium is directed to develop a comprehensive plan for providing continuing education credit courses and programs for its citizens using the resources of the resident institutions and non-resident institutions as appropriate. This plan will include provision for orderly and progressive transition to full implementation of the policy statement no later than June 30, 1976.

a) The State Council should undertake a thorough productivity study of degree programs at all levels and the institutions be invited to propose programs which could be eliminated. The study should be conducted in two stages: baccalaureate and above; and associate programs. The baccalaureate stage should be completed as soon thereafter as possible.
b) The Instructional Program Advisory Committee should be asked to recommend for Council approval new standards of productivity, especially with a view toward making them more stringent and reflective of productivity criteria other than degree production.
c) The Instructional Program Advisory Committee should be asked to work with the Council staff on a revised set of policies and procedures for degree program approval and to submit them to the Council in the Spring of 1974. The Committee should also consider periodic review of existing programs, particularly at the graduate level.
d) The Council should convey its concern about program productivity, standards of productivity, and new program approval procedures to the General Professional Advisory Committee and ask it to recommend other actions which it believes would be beneficial.

To develop and safeguard these resources, education and mental health opportunities must be made available for all citizens according to their abilities and needs. On November 5, 1968, Virginians will have an opportunity to invest in the future of these resources as well as the future of the Commonwealth, by approving the issuance of $81 million in general obligation bonds to finance capital outlay for higher education and mental health.
Virginia currently maintains 28 public colleges and universities with a combined enrollment of approximately 75,000. The State Council of Higher Education has forecast the enrollment in the public institutions of Virginia should more than double in the next ten years. To accommodate these additional students, new community colleges must be constructed and facilities in the four-year colleges and universities expanded. Current tax revenues will not meet these and mental health needs and it is necessary to issue bonds to finance these structures.
Consistent with its responsibility to promote the orderly development of a sound, progressive and coordinated system of higher education in Virginia and because of its belief that human resources hold the key to the future greatness of Virginia, the State Council of Higher Education endorses the general obligation bond referendum and urges all citizens of the Commonwealth to support its passage

| (to supersede Statement of the State Council of Higher Education of April 3, 1967, concerning Virginia State College-Norfolk)
Pursuant to a request from the Board of Visitors of Virginia State College for a clarification of the role and scope of its Norfolk Division, and in accordance with the statutory responsibilities of Section 23-9.6 of the Code of Virginia, the State Council of Higher Educ (to supersede Statement of the State Council of Higher Education of April 3, 1967, concerning Virginia State College-Norfolk)
Pursuant to a request from the Board of Visitors of Virginia State College for a clarification of the role and scope of its Norfolk Division, and in accordance with the statutory responsibilities of Section 23-9.6 of the Code of Virginia, the State Council of Higher Education had determined that Virginia State College-Norfolk, either as a branch or as an independent institution, shall limit its curriculum offering to strong baccalaureate programs in the arts and science, business, teacher education, and technology (industrial, electrical, science) according to its resources and the needs of the area in which it is located. Although it is expected that faculty members will engage in research or other scholarly activity, it should be stressed that Virginia State College-Norfolk is envisioned as an institution for providing instruction at the baccalaureate level in the four areas named above.
It is the opinion of the State Council of Higher Education that existing and proposed master's and doctor's program at other state-controlled institutions of higher education obviate the need for graduate level instruction at Virginia State College-Norfolk.
In planning the future of Virginia State College-Norfolk, the State Council of Higher Education assumes that the Bord of Visitors will bear in mind the growth and development of the state system of comprehensive community colleges with their offerings of certificate and associate degree programs.
