The Secretary announced the presence of a quorum. Commissioner McQueen and Trustee Gregg were unable to attend the meeting. Members of the administrative staff and media representatives were present. The meeting was also webcast for the convenience of the University community, the general public, and the media.

III. OPENING REMARKS

At the Governor’s request, Vice Chair Jubran chaired the meeting. On behalf of the Board, he thanked the Governor for his outstanding support for the University and yielded the floor to Governor Haslam for remarks.

Governor Haslam provided a brief update on higher education in Tennessee. He said the state’s economy is providing a good “tailwind” for education needs, noting that in last year’s budget, higher education received increased funding for operations and capital projects, and he hopes that will be repeated in the coming year. With what is both a luxury and challenge of a surplus, the state must make thoughtful and strategic investments for the long term. One of those investments is education, both k-12 and higher education. Drive to 55 by 2025 and Tennessee Promise are making significant headway. Tennessee Promise has increased community college attendance by 20-25%. The fall-to-fall retention rate of the first-year Tennessee Promise students was about 81%, a very promising statistic for UT and other universities in Tennessee, as many of those students will continue their education after two years. He congratulated UTK for the largest freshmen enrollment class in its history.

Commenting on the students who joined the Trustees for lunch earlier in the day, he noted that the Trustees witnessed firsthand the mission of higher education. Students from across the state were present, all with a different educational focus taking advantage of this incredible asset. Our need as a state has shifted, he said, from bringing companies to Tennessee to making certain we have a well-prepared workforce both in quantity and quality, and higher education is critical to the state’s continuing progress. The Governor closed by thanking the Trustees for their good work in helping to create the forward progress we have today.

IV. INTRODUCTION OF NEW TRUSTEES

Vice Chair Jubran introduced newly appointed Non-voting Student Trustee Rachel Smith and presented her with a Trustee lapel pin. He also introduced the Executive Director of the Tennessee Higher Education Commission, Mike Krause, attending his first meeting as an ex officio Trustee, and presented him with a Trustee lapel pin.

Before beginning the Regular Agenda, Vice Chair Jubran asked if any Trustee wanted to move an item from the Consent Agenda to the Regular Agenda. Hearing no request, the Vice Chair proceeded to the Regular Agenda.

V. RESOLUTION HONORING FORMER TRUSTEES

Chancellor Cheek presented a Resolution honoring Jalen Blue (Exhibit 1) for his service as a student Trustee. After Dr. Cheek recited the Resolution, Trustee Driver moved its adoption. The motion was seconded by Trustee Pryse, and the Resolution was adopted unanimously. In thanking the Trustees for the Resolution, Mr. Blue said he was very honored to represent the University’s 50,000 students and to have had the opportunity to work with Trustees, administrators, faculty, staff, and students to take on the challenging issues facing the University. He mentioned his advocacy for diversity and inclusion and the importance of continuing to educate students on the great value that comes from different perspectives. He recognized the UT Diversity Matters Coalition, saying it was an inspiration to him to keep fighting for what he knew was right. He expressed his hope for continued future progress in diversity and inclusion for the University. He closed his remarks by thanking his family and friends, Dr. Cheek, Dr. DiPietro, Governor Haslam, Dr. Golden, Dr. Shivers, and the Trustees for their guidance and for the opportunity to serve as a valued member of the Board. Vice Chair Jubran thanked Mr. Blue for being a great team member on the Board.

President DiPietro presented a Resolution (Exhibit 2) honoring former Commissioner of Agriculture, Julius Johnson, for his long service as a voting ex officio Trustee. After reciting the Resolution, Dr. DiPietro moved its adoption, Trustee Rose seconded the motion, and the Resolution was adopted unanimously. Commissioner Johnson thanked Governor Haslam for appointing him as Commissioner, which allowed him to serve on this distinguished Board. He thanked the Board for their great friendship through the years. He said his service on the Board included a period of time without stability in leadership, making progress difficult. He encouraged the University to cultivate its employees to move upward into leadership roles. He said he believes the Commissioner of Agriculture serves on the Board to represent rural Tennessee in UT’s land grant mission and expressed his hope that rural economic development continues to be a very important role for this University.

Governor Haslam noted that his first appointment upon assuming office was the appointment of Julius Johnson as Commissioner of Agriculture. He said Commissioner Johnson has great insight and great appreciation for and commitment to the entire state. The Governor praised him for advocating throughout his career to keep rural communities competitive in agriculture. He thanked him for his service to the University and the state.

Trustee Driver presented a Resolution (Exhibit 3) honoring James L. Murphy, III for his service as a Trustee. After reciting the Resolution, Trustee Driver moved its adoption, Trustee Lampley seconded the motion, and the Resolution was adopted unanimously. Mr. Murphy thanked the Trustees for the personal notes he has received since his decision to resign from the Board. He said his 13 years of service as a Trustee is one of the most rewarding opportunities of his life. He thanked his wife Marie for her support; Governor Bredesen for his initial appointment; Governor Haslam for his reappointment; his law partners for allowing him to devote the time he needed to devote to the University; all Trustees with whom he served with over the years, particularly Page 3, Annual Meeting Board of Trustees October 14, 2016

4 Called Meeting of the Board of Trustees - Minutes of the Last Meeting 1

Andrea Loughry, Don Stansberry and Jim Haslam, Trustees with whom he spent a lot of time working on some difficult issues and establishing foundations to move the University forward. He also thanked Dr. Jan Simek for his valuable work during a very difficult time for the University. He thanked Dr. DiPietro for his great leadership in setting the University on a course to where it needs to be while re-inventing its financial model, and Catherine Mizell for all of her excellent assistance. In closing, he expressed his sincere appreciation to his colleagues on the Board.

Governor Haslam noted that the Resolution refers to “selflessly” assuming the role of Vice Chair in 2015 and said “selfless” very accurately describes Jim Murphy. He added that in difficult times, great leaders do not inflict pain but rather bear pain, and Jim Murphy has done that over several years. He commented on the consistency, stability, and wisdom Jim gave the University, noting in particular his special ability to stand in the middle and bridge the gap between divergent constituent’s on numerous occasions through difficult times. Vice Chair Jubran added that the Trustees will greatly miss the guiding light Jim has been for the Board.

VI. PRESIDENT’S REPORT

Dr. DiPietro thanked the Governor for his strong support of higher education. His report (Exhibit 4) included discussion of the University’s commitment to expanding diversity and inclusion and to narrowing the projected funding gap. The report also updated the Trustees on capital projects, the upcoming first meeting of the independent Title IX Commission, and progress with the System Administration reorganization, searches and appointments.

VII. UT KNOXVILLE NAMING

Chancellor Cheek announced a transformational gift by John D. Tickle for the UT Knoxville College of Engineering (Exhibit 5). The gift will be used to advance College of Engineering priorities and help fuel the University’s goal of becoming a Top-25 public research university.

Chancellor Cheek said John Tickle, an alumnus and Trustee, is one of UTK’s most loyal supporters, noting that John gave his first gift to UTK one year after completing his degree in Industrial Engineering, long before his great success in business. He added that Mr. Tickle and his wife Ann have supported programs and facilities throughout the University, including the state- of-the-art John D. Tickle Engineering Building, the John and Ann Tickle Small Animal Hospital, and the John and Ann Tickle Athletic Development Suite. John has also been a key donor for the planned new engineering building that will house nuclear engineering and freshman engineering programs. He and his family are invested in the College of Engineering and supportive of its extremely high goals and desire to be better each year than the year before.

In recognition of this transformational gift and John Tickle’s selfless service and exemplary leadership on behalf of the University, Chancellor Cheek stated that it was his pleasure and honor to recommend to President DiPietro that the UT Knoxville College of Engineering be named the Page 4, Annual Meeting Board of Trustees October 14, 2016

5 Called Meeting of the Board of Trustees - Minutes of the Last Meeting 1

“John D. Tickle College of Engineering”. The naming is consistent with Board policy and guidelines on the naming of a college. President DiPietro strongly concurs in the recommendation and requests the Board’s approval.

Trustee Pryse moved adoption of the following Resolution:

RESOLVED: The College of Engineering at The University of Tennessee, Knoxville is hereby named the “John D. Tickle College of Engineering” in recognition of a transformational gift by John D. Tickle and in recognition of his selfless service and exemplary leadership on behalf of the University.

Trustee Lampley seconded the motion, and the Resolution was adopted, with Trustee Tickle abstaining from the vote. Vice Chair Jubran expressed appreciation on behalf of the Board to John and Ann Tickle and the entire Tickle family. The Trustees and audience gave the Tickle family a standing ovation.

Addressing the Board, Trustee Tickle expressed his deep honor and said that he would try to live up to the billing. He said his goal is for the University to be known for the quality of the education it provides, saying he and his wife believe education is what fuels success, not just of individuals, but also of the University and the state. He thanked Governor Haslam, the Vice Chair, and all the Trustees for their dedication, hard work, and wisdom. He thanked Dean Wayne Davis for his leadership at the College of Engineering and President DiPietro for his excellent service to the University. And lastly, he thanked his family for their support. His wife, Ann Tickle, and son and grandson, John D. (Spike) Tickle, II and Jack Tickle, were present.

VIII. BYLAW AMENDMENT ON COMPOSITION OF THE ATHLETICS COMMITTEE

Vice Chair Jubran stated that on June 23, 2016, the Board of Trustees adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws, including a Bylaw concerning composition of the Athletics Committee. The Bylaw established certain standing committee chairs as members of the committee and authorized the Vice Chair to appoint one Trustee as an at-large member.

To provide greater flexibility in committee appointments, the Vice Chair recommended that the Bylaw be amended to allow appointment of up to three Trustees as at-large members (Exhibit 6).

Trustee Pryse moved that the Board of Trustees adopt the following Resolution amending Article III, Section 2(b)(3) of the Bylaws:

RESOLVED: Article III, Section 2(b)(3) of the Bylaws is amended to read as follows:

The Athletics Committee shall be composed of the following Trustees: Vice Chair of the Board; Chair of the Academic Affairs and Student Success Committee; Chair of the Audit and Compliance Committee; Chair of the Finance and Administration; Page 5, Annual Meeting Board of Trustees October 14, 2016

and Chair of the Trusteeship Committee, all of whom shall serve as ex officio voting members. From time to time, the Vice Chair of the Board may recommend to the Board of Trustees that up to three additional Trustees with knowledge and experience that would be particularly beneficial to the Athletics Committee be appointed as at-large voting members. The President of the University shall serve as an ex officio non-voting member but shall not be counted for quorum purposes.

The motion was duly seconded, a roll call vote was taken, and the Resolution was adopted (Exhibit 7).

X. RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE

Vice Chair Jubran recognized Committee Chair Anderson, who reported the recommendations of the Finance and Administration Committee on three action items.

Committee Chair Anderson reported that in accordance with the Tennessee Higher Education Commission and State Department of Finance and Administration guidelines, the University administration has developed the Capital Outlay and Capital Maintenance Funding Requests for FY 2017-18 and subsequent years.

The five-year schedule for Capital Outlay reflects $757,850,000 in recommended state funded Capital Outlay Projects which is net of the requisite institutional funding match (25% for UTK, UTC, UTM and 10% for all others). The five-year schedule for Capital Maintenance reflects $404,200,000 in recommended Capital Maintenance Projects. The administration seeks approval of these requests and authorization to enter into contracts for design and construction within available funds.

Chair Anderson reported that at its meeting on October 14, 2016, the Finance and Administration Committee recommended adoption of the following Resolution by the Board of Trustees (Exhibit 13):

RESOLVED: The Capital Outlay and Capital Maintenance Funding Requests for FY 2017-18 and subsequent years are approved, with authorization to enter into contracts for design and construction for these projects within available funds.

The Vice Chair called for a roll-call vote, and the Resolution was adopted (Exhibit 14).

B. FY 2017-18 Revenue/Institutionally Funded Projects

Committee Chair Anderson reported that the administration has developed the revenue/institutionally funded projects listed in the meeting materials for inclusion in the FY 2017-18 State of Tennessee Budget Document. Identified projects total $162,070,000. Although, no state funds are requested, legislative approval of the projects is required. The administration seeks Board approval of these projects prior to submitting them to the Tennessee Higher Education Commission to begin the legislative approval process. The administration also seeks authorization to enter into contracts for design and construction for these projects within available funds. In addition, the administration seeks authorization to enter into contracts for design and construction associated with revenue/institutionally funded projects subsequently identified during the fiscal year. Any subsequently identified projects will be approved by the President and reported to the Board of Trustees at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

The Vice Chair called for a roll-call vote, and the Resolution was adopted (Exhibit 16).

XI. REPORT OF THE ADVANCEMENT AND PUBLIC AFFAIRS COMMITTEE

Committee Chair Pryse reported the Advancement and Public Affairs Committee heard from three speakers who had pre-registered to address the Board pursuant to the Standing Rule Governing Requests to Address the Board of Trustees. The first speaker, a graduate student and employee at UTK, urged the Board to consider changing the way salary increases are allocated and also addressed a concern regarding appeal of the performance review process. The second and third speakers, both employees of the University, asked the Board to reject outsourcing of facilities services.

XII. REPORT OF THE AUDIT AND COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE

Committee Chair Gallimore reported that at the August 30 meeting, the Audit and Compliance Committee reviewed the University’s development of a succession planning model. The goal of the project is to build a pool of candidates for critical jobs, with assessment of readiness and planned development for potential successors, based on key competencies needed in each job. Progress has been made and will continue through next summer. The team involved in the development is interviewing senior leaders in UT System Administration and will identify critical positions and key competencies in 2017.

The committee also reviewed the structure of UT’s institutional compliance program and learned more about the system-wide program to identify risks and work with subject matter compliance experts at each campus and institute. The mission of this program is to promote an ethical culture, identify compliance risks faced by the University community, and collaborate with the University community to mitigate compliance risks.

The Audit and Compliance Committee continues to provide oversight of the work conducted to improve the IT security posture of the University. At the August meeting, updates were reported from the chief information officers at UT Knoxville, the Health Science Center, and UT Chattanooga on efforts to mature information technology security at their campuses. In Page 9, Annual Meeting Board of Trustees October 14, 2016

10 Called Meeting of the Board of Trustees - Minutes of the Last Meeting 1

December, the Committee will hear updates from the chief information officers at UT Martin, the Institute for Public Service, the Institute of Agriculture, and UT System Administration.

The Office of Audit and Compliance includes both the internal audit and institutional compliance functions for the UT system and has auditors located in Knoxville, Memphis, and Chattanooga. A search is underway to hire an auditor to be located on the Martin campus. Although all team members are UT System staff and report centrally through the chief audit executive to the Committee, having a presence on each campus allows the auditors to provide better service to the campus.

As required by state statute, work is underway to audit the President’s and Chancellors’ offices. This year, the audit team is reviewing the offices of the President, Chancellor Cheek, and Chancellor Arrington (who is now retired). The results of those reviews will be forwarded to the Board in December.

Finally, in December, the Committee will review the processes at UT Knoxville to protect minors on campus.

LEADERSHIP HIGHLIGHTS 3

Strategic Planning

Established a statewide strategic planning team to lead the development of a 10-year strategic plan for UT Extension in 2009. Five goals were established to advance Tennessee through Extension educational programs. Listening sessions were conducted with employees and stakeholder groups statewide, and an online feedback instrument received more than 2,000 responses indicating future needs and priorities. One-time funds were budgeted for implementation of the plan, and 13 implementation teams were appointed. Selected accomplishments of the teams include:

· Launch of an initiative to increase visibility of UT Extension statewide, which coincided with new UTIA branding. A robust marketing toolkit was developed to provide Extension Week plans, logos, guidelines, training, templates, and many more tools for use by Faculty, Agents, and Staff;

· Development of a 3-part program called Building Exceptionally Skilled Teachers (BEST) to improve the quality of presentations and professionalism by Faculty and Agents, with the program delivered through online modules and face-to-face meetings and coaching;

· Implementation of a peer mentor program for all newly hired Extension agents, to assist them in performing their duties and improving retention of young professionals;

· Development of a county director training program to meet the needs of agents who assume administrative duties as county directors by increasing competencies and performance; enhancing job satisfaction; and establishing consistent leadership and direction among county directors; and

· Supporting a healthy lifestyles team to encourage all employees to exercise, eat well, and achieve balanced lives.

Organizational Change

Since 2008, several significant organizational changes have been accomplished in an open and transparent manner. Input, feedback, and direct involvement of internal and external stakeholders has resulted in support for the changes with minimal disruption of ongoing programs.

The most significant organizational change was a new staffing plan for UT Extension. In FY08- FY10, the budget for Extension was reduced by $5.4 million due to the recession. Extension agents and clientele were asked to prioritize staffing in our county offices, and criteria were established to guide the new staffing plan. A total of 60 positions were eliminated at the county, regional and state levels. Most reductions were through vacancies generated as a result of an incentivized retirement program, but 19 individuals were required to move in order to achieve the new staffing model. During the reorganization, numerous meetings and conversations were held with state and local leaders, agricultural leaders, and Extension agents and specialists to solicit input and feedback about the reorganization. Three regional teams were appointed to make recommendations of the number of agents in each county in their region, reflecting the needs in their communities and program areas.

The consolidation of the state 4-H office with the Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication (ALEC) was accomplished in 2014 following 18 months of planning, discussion, and departmental meetings. The joint unit now offers faculty status to qualified members of both 4-H and ALEC, and it provides an opportunity to mesh field programs for positive youth development with classroom-based agricultural education programs. Joint faculty positions have been created, and the faculty and Extension specialists are partnering to develop new curriculum, apply for extramural funding, and offer leadership and communications training for Agricultural teachers and Extension agents.

Partnerships

Partnerships with other organizations have contributed to new programs and the leverage of existing resources. Each partnership has typically been supported by the development of a contract or memorandum of understanding that specifies the responsibilities, benefits, and costs of all parties.

Beginning in 1997, UT Extension agents were tasked with making animal cruelty investigations to determine probable cause. These cases increased in frequency and severity, with more than 1,000 cases being investigated annually by 2010. Working closely with the Tennessee Department of Agriculture (TDA), the Tennessee Farm Bureau, and our state elected officials, the livestock cruelty legislation was changed in 2016 to remove UT Extension from these responsibilities, and require TDA to conduct livestock cruelty investigations statewide. This change was only possible through a strong, positive relationship with all parties, and it has resulted in improved morale and personal safety of Extension employees who can once again focus on education and support the needs of livestock owners.

Tennessee State University (TSU) is a significant partner for UTIA, and especially UT Extension. This partnership is guided by a detailed memorandum of understanding (renewed and revised most recently in 2011) that outlines responsibilities of each partner and clarifies the support to be provided for joint activities. A monthly meeting with both UT and TSU state and regional staff has been held to assess past programs and plan for future collaborative efforts. TSU has increased county staff from 13 agents to 50 agents, and this increase effectively offset the staffing reductions required due to the budget reductions at UT. A joint UT/TSU Extension Advisory Council meets twice annually to obtain feedback from stakeholders and guide future directions. Frequent communication, honesty, and respect are the keys to this positive relationship with TSU.

Two multi-state, tenure-track specialist positions were created with the University of Kentucky to conduct research and education for dark-fired tobacco growers in Western Kentucky and Middle Tennessee, as well as burley tobacco growers in Central and Eastern Tennessee and Kentucky. The two joint positions are responsible to the Department of Agronomy at the University of Kentucky and the Department of Plant Sciences at UT. Each position is located at a regional research and education facility: one is in Princeton, Kentucky and the other is in Springfield, Tennessee. One position is 25% UT Extension and 75% University of Kentucky, and the other position is 25% University of Kentucky and 75% UT Extension and AgResearch, with expenses divided according to these percentages among the two institutions including

4

3

salary, benefits, and operating funds. Benefits have included timely programs that are relevant to growers in both states, reduced travel expenses, and expanded educational programs and applied research specifically for dark-fired and burley tobacco growers.

Budget Management

Decreasing federal funds combined with flat state funding have resulted in the need to diversify the funding base for UT Extension. Three primary strategies to diversify have been grant and contract funding, gifts, and fee-based programming. Growth has occurred in funding from each of these strategies, and significant opportunities still exist to enhance these sources of support.

Grants and contracts for Extension programs at the state level totaled $10.8 million in FY09. Total grant and contract funds in FY16 were $14.2 million, representing an increase of about 30%. Support for grants and contracts has been provided through identification of funding possibilities, promotion of an incentive program for faculty and specialists receiving grants and contracts which include salary and benefits, support for an integrated office of sponsored programs for all grant and contract forms, procedures and policies, and encouragement of faculty to pursue external funds for educational programs.

Encouraging and supporting gift support has been an important growth strategy, both in the short term and (through planned gifts) for the long run. Endowment funds for UT Extension have increased from $15 million in FY09 to $20 million in FY16, a 33% increase. This growth reflects the positive results of a reorganization in the Office of Advancement to include regional staff, a more engaged 4-H Foundation Board of Directors and Executive Director, and new advancement programs such as the Commodities for Communities program in which farmers donate grain to a county UT Extension endowment fund. Annual endowment fund earnings are now approximately $1 million annually, supporting a wide range of state, regional and county programs.

Another strategy for diversification has been charging fees for specific programs and materials to recover direct costs of program delivery. Policies were established to guide the implementation of fees at the state and county level. A summary report was presented for discussion to all staff, and components of the plan are being implemented. Progress to date includes revision (with University Audit approval) of county financial guidelines to address issues related to collection and administration of fees, establishment of one deposit account for each county office, establishment of one conference account for each department, University administration approval of increased carryover of fee-based revenues, development of new fee-based programs, development of an e-commerce tool for online purchases and conference registrations, and monthly newsletter articles over a one-year period to guide staff in the establishment and collection of fees.

Facilities Management

Effective management of facilities is essential to a productive workforce and delivery of quality programs. In 2008, after making a personal visit and tour, a decision was made to close the Buford Ellington 4-H Center in Milan, TN which had been in operation since 1952. The decision

5

8 Called Meeting of the Board of Trustees - President's Recommendation for Appointment and Compensation of the Chancellor of the Institute of Agriculture

3

was based on considerable deferred maintenance issues and the inability to generate sufficient fees to recover the costs of operating the center. Support for this decision by West Tennessee stakeholders and volunteer leaders was generated through numerous meetings, phone calls, and other direct contacts. While there was a willingness to support the closure of the 4-H Center, there was also a strong expectation of replacement of the facility with a more suitable facility in the future. 4-H youth who had been assigned to camp at Milan were reassigned to the 4-H Center in Columbia, necessitating a change in youth who camped in Columbia to move to the Center in Crossville, which in turn required a move of youth from Crossville to the camp in Greeneville. The Milan closure truly lead to a statewide impact.

Following the end of the recession, a vision committee was appointed in late 2010 to establish the characteristics and site criteria for a new 4-H Center facility in West Tennessee. The committee made visits to successful facilities in other states, developed criteria for a new site in West Tennessee, and then solicited sites from throughout the West Tennessee area, receiving 19 possible locations of interest. A site review committee was appointed next to review the applications, identify a pool of 3 top sites, visit the finalists, and recommend a location for a new 4-H Center. Lone Oaks Farm emerged as the top site according to the committee’s criteria, at a cost of $15.9 million. Public meetings and tours at Lone Oaks Farm were conducted to increase awareness and support among the public, 4-H members and volunteers, university leaders, and key elected officials. The site was recommended for funding by UT, THEC and Governor Haslam in the FY15 budget which was subsequently approved by the legislature. The property was acquired in December, 2015. The new facility is now staffed, youth and adult events and conferences are being hosted, and fund raising is underway. A master plan is the next step for development of the property. Two planned gifts of $1 million each have been obtained, and about $5 million in gifts and pledges have been received for capital construction.

Leadership Development

Participation in four formal leadership development programs has contributed to professional growth, especially related to communication, personnel management, and collaborative problem solving. A brief description of each program follows.

Food Systems Leadership Institute: Development of upper-level leaders in higher education, government, and industry to prepare them to meet the leadership challenges and opportunities of the future. Objectives of the three-year program include enhancement of leadership skills, development of new skills for organizational change, and broadened understanding of food systems topics (including health and nutrition, food production and supply chains, and the environment), 2007 - 2009.

Southeast Natural Resource Leadership Institute: The purpose of this program was to develop leaders throughout the Southeast who can help groups involved in contentious natural resources issues move beyond conflict toward consensus building and collaborative problem solving. The 2004 program consisted of two, three-day workshops with a mix of mini-lectures, experiential role-plays and exercises, stakeholder panel discussions about specific environmental “hot” topics, and field trips.

National Extension Leadership Development program: A two-year program designed for Extension professionals, the NELD program consisted of four, one-week seminars and one, two- week international experience. The seminars focused on leadership theory and practice, organizational renewal and development, partnerships and collaborations, challenges and choices in a global age, and leadership models in democracy. The program was conducted from January 2003 to October 2004.

University of Tennessee Leadership Institute: This one-week institute is offered to UT employees and addresses leadership issues and styles, organizational change, team building, partnerships, and communication. February 2001.

63 Called Meeting of the Board of Trustees - President's Recommendation for Appointment and Compensation of the General Counsel Pursuant to a Reorganization

THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE 4 BOARD OF TRUSTEES

ACTION ITEM

DATE: December 15, 2016

ITEM: President’s Recommendation for Appointment and Compensation of the General Counsel Pursuant to a Reorganization

RECOMMENDATION: Approval

PRESENTED BY: Raja J. Jubran, Vice Chair of the Board Joseph A. DiPietro, President

For several months, we have been discussing the need to separate the position of Secretary from the position of General Counsel because the responsibilities of these key University Officers demand far more than a single full-time position. Catherine Mizell has held both positions for more than 16 years and has been willing to work long hours to carry out the responsibilities of both. We believe now is the time to separate the positions to allow adequate time and attention to be devoted to the distinct and critical responsibilities of each position. In particular, we believe the Secretary needs to be a full-time position that can provide support to all Trustees on a regular basis and assist the leadership of the Board in promoting more effective governance. The large and geographically diverse nature of the Board presents a significant challenge to ensuring adequate communication of information the Trustees need to exercise their fiduciary responsibilities effectively. A position dedicated full time to the Board will facilitate the flow of information and provide other governance, administrative, and legal support to the Board.

To accomplish this reorganization, Catherine will continue full-time as Secretary with additional duties as Chief of Staff and Special Counsel to the Trustees, effective January 1, 2017. This will allow the Board and the University to retain the value of Catherine’s extensive knowledge of the University and her legal expertise. For the short term, her role as Special Counsel will include working closely with the General Counsel to ensure a smooth transition; for the long term, she will provide legal advice to the Board with respect to governance and provide other legal services, in coordination with the General Counsel. Duties and responsibilities of this full-time position are outlined in the following position description.

The duties and responsibilities of General Counsel will be reassigned to Matthew Scoggins (who currently holds the title Deputy General Counsel). President DiPietro

1 Called Meeting of the Board of Trustees - President's Recommendation for Appointment and Compensation of the General Counsel Pursuant to a Reorganization

recommends Matthew’s promotion to General Counsel, effective January 1, 2017. 4 Matthew was one of the top two graduates in the College of Business at UT Knoxville in 1999 and one of the top 15 graduates overall. He graduated first in his class from the UT College of Law (1/160) in 2003 and practiced with law firms in Atlanta and Knoxville before joining the Office of the General Counsel in June 2008. Matthew has consistently been a top performer, which led Catherine to promote him to Deputy General Counsel in April 2015. President DiPietro has had the opportunity to work directly with Matthew and has developed strong confidence in his counsel and commitment to the best interests of the University. A copy of Matthew’s resumé is included in the materials.

Based on the market analysis included in the materials, President DiPietro recommends the following initial compensation for Matthew as General Counsel: (1) a base salary of $23,750.00 per month ($285,000.00 annualized); and (2) a non-accountable expense allowance of $416.67 per month ($5,000.00 annualized). Matthew will also be eligible for a potential annual performance incentive payment of up to 15% of base salary, payable in three installments over three years.

MOTION: I move that the Board of Trustees adopt the following Resolution:

RESOLVED: The President’s recommendation for the appointment and initial compensation of Matthew M. Scoggins, III as General Counsel pursuant to the reorganization described in the meeting materials is approved.
