Call to Order Chair Bucky Wolford called the meeting or order. Mr. Scott Maclellan gave the and Invocation: invocation. President’s Dr. DiPietro commented that he appreciated being with the Trustees today. Remarks: The budget seems to be lining up when it comes to higher education. For all of higher education the total State budget is $368M. That equated to approximately $120M for the UT System. Off the top of the $120M there is $90M for capital outlay, which includes the Lupton renovation. The President commented that the UCFoundation was instrumental in helping the Lupton project proceed. UTC will receive $2.7M based on their performance. Chancellor Angle has done a great job and President DiPietro is very proud of the job being done. Martin is to receive $1.3M and $10M for Knoxville performance numbers. In reality the new money that the Chancellor has to work with is $2.7M. The tuition increase will be approximately 2.2%. The Chancellor’s will need every dollar possible. There have been several bills before legislature. There were two bills concerning tuition freezes. The President made a presentation why tuition raises are still necessary due to the funding models in place. There was a bill in place to reorganize the UT Board of Trustees. Part of which changed the numbers from 26 to 15. Then there were several bills around diversity that are still active. It is very important to have a diversity program in place. We Board of Trustees Meeting –March 23, 2016 Page - 1 - have an obligation for our students to have a safe welcoming environment to come and study. Dr. DiPietro testified for almost two hours in the house on the diversity issue. Afterwards we moved to the Senate. The Senate amends the budget to deallocate from Knoxville $8M, gives $1.5M to Chattanooga for rural outreach. Knoxville was disappointed. All the Chancellors felt this deallocation was wrong. Outsourcing – another passionate topic. Richard Brown will represent the institution in Nashville. The employees will be protected if outsourcing is done. The benefits package will be similar. The contract will be for five years with one year renewable. The employees will be guaranteed for the length of the contract as long as they perform. It will be up to the campuses if they outsource – it will need to be justified through the system. This process will play out for a longer time than the President desires. It probably won’t play out until February of next year. Lastly, there has been a lot of media attention about sexual assaults. This is a national issue problem. We do not condone any type of this environment. One assault is one too many. We have altered the code of conduct, we are offering educational programs, and training law enforcement officers appropriately. Chancellor’s The Chancellor thanked everyone for being in attendance. Remarks: Admissions and Enrollment Overall applications are up 19% 1265 Freshmen - +20% Transfer applications - +4% Overall acceptance +16% 851 Freshmen - +17% Transfer Admits - +12% Campus Housing – South Campus changed the trajectory of this campus We are running ahead on our numbers of applicants. Even with the housing going up around campus we feel we will have the numbers to justify all. Housing opportunities are needed for our international students and our dual enrolled students. We are working on several fronts and feel the housing will be filled. Our athletic students are successful on and off the field. The athletes’ have remarkable GPA’s. The wrestling, basketball and volleyball programs have all made NCAA tournament appearances. Dr. Angle thanked David Blackburn for the job he is doing. The Lupton library project is beginning. The architects are now meeting on the project and we are moving forward to a designer for the project. The Chancellor echoed Dr. DiPietro’s sentiments in thanking the Foundation for their matching of funds for the renovation project. What a great time to be a Moc stated Dr. Angle. Asst. Professor Hope Klug received the National Science Foundation Career Award in Biology. Dr. Angle presented a diagram of the Engel Stadium project. 400 parking spaces will be added. Turf fields will be added as well as a walking track along with other amenities. This will allow for intramural sports. This will be paid for out of our student activity fees. The community is very supportive of we have proposed. We have a number of new faces in the room. Dr. Angle asked that the new Alumni/Development staff stand. One of our newest hires is Kirk Englehardt, Vice Chancellor for Marketing and Communication. Board of Trustees Meeting –March 23, 2016 Page - 2 - Vice Chancellor Englehardt commented that we have a great story to tell. We want to define the brand of UTC. What makes us special, what makes us different, what it is that attracts people to be part of this campus. We want to engage you, the Foundation, in the process of defining the University stated Englehardt. Mr. Englehardt encourages everyone to take the campus tour, you will learn a lot. There are things very unique here at UTC and we want to relay those things. Consent The Consent Agenda consisted of the following items that were distributed in advance of Agenda: the meeting: Minutes-September 30, 2015 Action Items of the Executive Committee Treasurer/Finance Report Real Estate Report The Consent Agenda was approved as presented by a motion and second. Chair’s Chair Bucky Wolford commented his appreciation of the President’s efforts to keep the Remarks: Lupton renovation process in the loop. Mr. Wolford complimented the Chancellor on his great new hires and the job he is doing. We are in the process of renegotiating the 5year Affiliation Agreement. Negotiations are going well stated Chair Wolford. Bucky Wolford thanked Max Bahner for his work on the agreement years ago. The Chair informed the Board members of the upgrade of the WiFi system on South Campus in order to remain competitive. The cost of the upgrade will be $975,000. The Real Estate Committee voted to return the money to the Foundation in two years. Mr. Wolford complimented Dr. Rowland on the great job he is doing.

  • Planners As Supporters and Enablers of Diasporic Placemaking
    PLANNERS AS SUPPORTERS AND ENABLERS OF DIASPORIC PLACEMAKING: LESSONS FROM CHATTANOOGA, TENNESSEE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School Of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Courtney Elizabeth Knapp August 2014 Copyright ©2014 Courtney Elizabeth Knapp ABSTRACT Planners as Supporters and Enablers of Diasporic Placemaking: Lessons from Chattanooga, Tennessee Courtney Elizabeth Knapp, Ph.D. Cornell University 2014 Professional urban planners have long struggled with questions about how to better support the planning and development of socially equitable and racially just communities. This dissertation project expands this conversation by exploring three centuries of ‘diasporic placemaking’ in the southeastern U.S. city of Chattanooga, Tennessee. I define ‘diasporic placemaking’ as creative, everyday practices through which historically uprooted and migratory populations create communities of material security and cultural belonging from shared social and physical environments. From there, I ask how planners might come to better support and enable multiracial diasporic placemaking in Chattanooga and other complex, racially and culturally diverse cities. The project builds upon literature in citizen participation, planning education, placemaking, theories of diaspora, cultural studies, and participatory action research. Methodologically, it combined ethnographic techniques (narrative interviews, participant observation, and archival analysis) with an action research partnership between the author, Chattanooga Organized for Action and the Chattanooga Public Library. Together, we launched two experimental initiatives: the Sustaining People and Reclaiming Communities (SPARC) Initiative and the Planning Free School of Chattanooga. Both were designed to be alternatives to mainstream planning initiatives underway in Chattanooga and to be created with and for the benefit of low income residents, especially communities of color.

Chris Gilligan ABOUT THE COVER From UTC’s “did you know” category, legend has it that if you step on one of the four, smooth-faced seals of Heritage Plaza as a student, you are doomed to fail your next exam, class or even wash out of college altogether. Even though it might just be a campus myth, Mocs are not willing to tempt fate. In fact, during the plaza’s busiest foot-traffic, you can see students part like the red sea, veering right or left, careful not to step on the seals which represent the schools that partnered to form the UTC of today.
