Tuition Ordinances Senior Vice President Creamer addressed the tuition ordinances being considered that day. He reminded the Committee that tuition is now cohort based, and there is no longer a single level of tuition for all undergraduates. Addressing the three tuition ordinances in a single presentation, he reviewed the Miami Tuition Promise, compared Miami tuition to other Ohio public universities and out-of-state universities, and reviewed Net Tuition Revenue, which is expected to decline slightly from FY2019. Senior Vice President Creamer then presented the miscellaneous fees ordinance and the budget appropriation ordinances. He reviewed the budget for FY2020, which shows a modest surplus, and the financial trend for the Regional Campuses, which is improved from prior years. He stated the Regional Campuses are not experiencing a negative impact of reduced international enrollment, and are actually expecting an increase in international students on the Hamilton Campus. Finally, he reviewed RCM budgeting for the academic divisions, which show three with a surplus, and three breaking even. For FY2019, year to date, he stated the budget is trending as projected from prior meetings. The Committee then considered the tuition ordinances, the miscellaneous fees ordinance, and the budget appropriation ordinance in a single vote. Trustee Robinson moved, Trustee Ridenour seconded and by voice vote the Committee unanimously recommended approval of all ordinances by the full Board of Trustees. SVP Creamer’s presentation is included as Attachment A, and the ordinances as Attachment B. Facilities, Construction, and Real Estate AVP Cody Powell provided a capital projects update. He stated there have been no additions or closures in projects since last meeting (May 2019). For McCracken, Richard and Porter Halls, occupancy permits are expected on June 28, 2019. He reported Stanton Hall is progressing on time for August 2020 completion. For Pearson Hall, the final renovation component started three months early, and is running ahead of schedule. Wilson Hall is now largely largely deconstructed. AVP Powell’s presentation is included as Attachment C.

Current policy requires all students (from outside of fifty miles) to live on campus during their first two years, and with the large Fall 2019 cohort, Miami has arranged for 75 beds off campus to meet demand. Current long-range planning shows lower-sized classes than Fall 2019, well into the future, with no planned expectations for off-campus housing and no plans to change the first two-year residency requirement. SVP Creamer’s presentation is included as Attachment D. Final Remarks Chair Armstrong reiterated the need to be adaptable, and stated time is often the enemy, and delays are not possible, therefore there must be contingency plans in place to rapidly address challenges in the future.
