(See attached notes for more information) CAMPUS COMPACT BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING, APRIL 2011 7 Fund Development Amy Smitter, Director of Institutional Development, presented a PowerPoint describing Campus Compact’s fund development plan. She also gave updates on the various grants that our network has obtained this past year, and those that are pending. She described the great success of this summer’s fundraising school at IUPUI in Indiana, which a majority of the Compact state directors were able to attend. With the help of the reinstated Fund Development Committee of the board, and a small pilot group of state directors, Amy plans to kick off the Compact’s individual giving campaign this fall. Amy concluded by leading a discussion about the things that Campus Compact should consider when reviewing requests to form partnerships with other organizations. She used the example of Interfaith Youth Core, a non-profit that recently showed interest in working with the Compact on joint projects. Campus Compact Network Elaine Ikeda, Executive Director of California Campus Compact, and Carie Hertzberg, Executive Director of Rhode Island Campus Compact, discussed the work of the Compact network in recent months. They explained the function of NEXCOM ( the “Network Executive Committee”) as a group of regional liaisons between the state offices and the national office, and expressed appreciation for both the summer fundraising school in Indiana and for the work Amy Smitter has done to organize fund development for the network. Presidents Leadership Summit Jack DeGioia and Maureen Curley facilitated a continuation of the morning’s discussion of the recent Presidents Leadership Summit at Georgetown University. The Summit convened over 100 presidents, chancellors, Campus Compact state directors and staff, and representatives from foundations in order to discuss the intersection between civic engagement and college access and success. Board members who attended the Summit shared their reflections on the event, feedback regarding how it could have been more effective, and suggestions for how to continue the discussion post-Summit. Conclusion of Meeting Bernie Milano made a motion to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Warrick Carter. The meeting was adjourned at approximately 1:00 PM. CAMPUS COMPACT BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING, APRIL 2011 8 Key Programs and Projects Fund Development By Amy Smitter, Director of Institutional Development Individual Giving: Campus Compact solicited individual support from board members, past donors, and national staff with a goal of raising $40,000. Since October 2010 we have raised $23,830 and $1,950 for the three pilot state Campus Compacts (FlCC, InCC, and MaCC). The pilot states have each raised some money and plan to expand their list of contacts for next year. At the January network meeting they presented to the other state directors generating interest in the possibility of annual campaigns. We are currently looking at how to affiliate with states to work collectively on annual campaigns. Committee: We are pleased to report that Preston Pulliams, David Giunta, Bernie Milano, and John Sirek have agreed to serve on the Fund Development Committee for the Board of Directors. The committee met for the first time March 16, 2011. Topics of discussion included; introductions to foundations in New York and Chicago for possible trips, committee purpose, and Campus Compact’s partnership overview language. Proposals Funded: In March 2011, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation approved an initial $45,000 grant to Campus Compact to hold a convening regarding a program to increase community college retention. This convening will bring together a small group of innovative leaders

Arnold Schwarzenegger (R-CA)..………………………………………………..33 INTRODUCTION Since 2003, CREW has closely monitored government ethics, bringing egregious conduct to light and holding public officials accountable for their misconduct. With a few exceptions, CREW has focused primarily on the ethics of federal government officials. In 2006, however, CREW launched the state-based Colorado Ethics Watch (CEW), which concentrates on public integrity at the state level. In 2009, CREW turned greater attention to state government ethics by publishing its Directory of State-based Government Watchdogs, which covers all 50 states and the District of Columbia. CREW’s Worst Governors delves further into state ethics. CREW reviewed the job performance of all 50 of our nation’s governors to determine which are the worst. CREW considered whether governors had violated ethics, campaign finance and personal financial disclosure rules as well as whether they had complied with state transparency laws. It is nearly impossible to compare governors’ adherence to the laws because state rules and laws vary so widely. Each state has its own ethical rules and standards. Requirements regarding disclosure of campaign contributions and expenditures and personal finances differ significantly as do state open records laws.

Washington, D.C. 20463 Re: Complaint Against Bush-Cheney ’04, Eric Tanenblatt, and Ofice of the Governor of the State of Georgia To whom it may concern: My name is George Anderson. I am an ethics activist in the State of Georgia. My address is 18 Twickenham Road, Rome, Georgia 30161. I seek immediate FEC investigation and enforcement action against Bush-Cheney ’04,Inc., Eric Tanenblatt, and Office of the Governor of the State of Georgia for violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1972 (“FECA”), as amended, 2 U.S.C.$0 431 et seq. (1997 and Supp. 1999). Bush-Cheney ’04, Inc., registered with the Federal Election Commission on May 16,2003, as the principal campaign committee of George Bush and Richard Cheney for ‘ federal office in the 2004 elections. Eric Tanenblatt was at the time of the activities described below an employee of the Office of the Governor of the State of Georgia. Bush-Cheney ’04 filings with the FEC list Tanenblatt as having made the maximum personal contributions allowed by law. Bush-Cheney ’04 hheracknowledges on its campaign website that Tanenblatt is responsible for raising more than $200,000 in additional campaign contributions. (www. eeorgewbush com/DonorslRanpers.aspx#rangers). The Office of the Governor of the State of Georgia violated the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1972 (“FECA”) when its employee, Eric Tanenblatt, used equipment and space in the Office of the Governor to make bdraising-related telephone calls on behalf of Bush-Cheney ’04 as well as doing so while behg paid a salary by the Ofice of the Governor.
