At minimum I hope that my thoughts on the direction of the Graduate School may prove helpful to the search committee and the new Dean, whomever that may be. To begin, there are three important attributes that I believe I can bring to this role. I share them here, because they clearly drive my comments on the envisioning committee’s specific recommendations. - I am most passionate about student success, and I firmly believe student success represents a singular goal that we can tie all our other goals and metrics into. - I am unable to settle for anything but operational excellence in day-to-day activities, and believe that you cannot sustainably advance the boundaries of academia without operational strength. - I am applying to this role with significant leadership experience, including connecting to both leadership on campus and with government, community, and industry leaders. I will now comment on my general approach to this role and the envisioning committee’s recommendations. At this re-envisioning stage for the Graduate School, approach is arguably more important than detailed action plans.

  • Report of the Ncaa Division I Council February 17, 2021, Videoconference
    REPORT OF THE NCAA DIVISION I COUNCIL FEBRUARY 17, 2021, VIDEOCONFERENCE In an effort to connect NCAA Division I Council items to the NCAA pillars of academics, fairness and well-being, items included in this report have an identifying pillar. There is an additional pillar, operational, that is used to denote items that relate to maintaining a stable and efficient Division I. KEY ITEMS. 1. Extension of the Temporary Recruiting Dead Period. (Academics/Fairness/Well- Being/Operational) The NCAA Division I Council adopted emergency temporary legislation to extend the temporary recruiting dead period (as defined in NCAA Bylaw 13.02.5.5) in all sports through May 31. In addition, the Council committed to providing clarity regarding permissible recruiting activities beginning June 1 (e.g., campus visits, evaluations) as soon as possible, and not later than its April 14-15 meeting. The extension reflects the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and concerns regarding in-person interaction among prospective student-athletes, institutional staff, and student-athletes. Extending the recruiting dead period now provides the membership and prospective student-athletes with clarity regarding the status of permissible recruiting activities for the remainder of the spring 2021 academic term. 2. Legislative Action – NCAA Division I Proposal No. 2019-25 Adopted. (Fairness/Well- Being/Operational) Legislative actions taken by the Council are listed in Attachment A. Voting results are available in Attachment B. The Council removed Proposal No. 2019-25 from the table and adopted the legislation, which applies to bowl subdivision football and men’s and women’s basketball. The proposal specifies that the definition of an individual associated with a prospective student-athlete does not include an individual who maintained (or directed others to maintain) contact with a prospective student-athlete (or a prospective student-athlete’s relatives, legal guardians or coaches) only while employed in the athletics department at another four-year institution.

    REPORT OF THE NCAA DIVISION I COUNCIL MARCH 24, 2021, VIDEOCONFERENCE In an effort to connect NCAA Division I Council items to the NCAA pillars of academics, fairness and well-being, items included in this report have an identifying pillar. There is an additional pillar, operational, that is used to denote items that relate to maintaining a stable and efficient Division I. KEY ITEMS. 1. Season-of-Competition Waiver for Conferences and Institutions That Cancel or Suspend Spring Sport Seasons. (Fairness/Well-Being/Operational) The Division I Council approved a waiver permitting conferences and institutions that cancel or suspend seasons in spring sports to self-apply a season-of-competition waiver for their spring sport student-athletes, provided the following criteria are met: a. The student-athlete uses a season of competition in a spring sport during the 2020- 21 academic year; b. The student-athlete does not compete in more than three contests/dates of competition or 30% (whichever number is greater) of the maximum permissible contests/dates of competition as set forth in NCAA Division I Bylaw 17 in the applicable sport; c. The student-athlete is eligible for intercollegiate competition when they compete during the 2020-21 academic year; and d. The student-athlete and the institution’s team end competition by the selection date for the NCAA championship in the applicable sport and do not compete in postseason competition during the 2021 spring. Student-athletes in conferences and institutions that have canceled or suspended spring seasons will not have an opportunity for a meaningful participation experience during the 2021 spring.

The settlement agreement 5 is the result of extensive litigation and arm’s-length negotiations between the parties. Defendants 6 agree to pay $208,664,445.00, which (after deduction of fees and expenses) will be disbursed to 7 student-athletes who attended Division I schools that plaintiffs’ evidence shows would have awarded 8 the full cost of attendance at those schools (“COA”), but for the NCAA bylaw in effect until January 9 1, 2015, that capped the maximum grant-in-aid (“GIA”) at less than COA.

Access to and participation in sports improves the lives of all students, and that is particularly true for girls and women. During this time of COVID-19, we are writing to remind you of your institutional obligation to uphold Title IX.1 We understand that these are trying times for collegiate institutions, including athletics departments. In response to financial pressures, we have become aware that some universities are considering program cuts to their athletic programs.2 As the commissioner of the 1 20 U.S.C. §§ 1681-1688. 2 Sallee, Barrett. “Group of Five Commissioners Ask NCAA to Relax Rules That Could Allow More Sports to Be Cut.” CBS Sports, April 15, 2020.
