    Repout of tbe Puesi()ent Ball State UnivensiftY 1973-74 IJ Ball State University Board of Trustees Alexander M. Bracken, President Muncie Harrold W. Wallace II, Vice President Indianapolis Will Parker, Secretary Muncie Dorothy O'Maley (Mrs. Robert), Assistant Secretary Richmond F. Edwin Schouweiler Fort Wayne Dean Speicher Osceola M. Thomas Harrison Columbus r: Report of the President July 1, 1973-June 30, 1974 Much has been said and written recently to the effect that university students of the seventies are more academically serious than their counter­ parts of only a few years ago. The obvious corollary is that universities must be equally intent on strengthening academic opportunities for their students. For our continuing emphasis on academic excellence and our progress in academic innovation, we at Ball State University can review the 1973-74 year with justifiable pride. Certainly final accreditation at the doctoral level by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools was the most significant event of the year and the highest accomplishment ever accorded to Ball State University. Final accreditation means that Ball State University may introduce new doctoral programs without requesting the permission of the North Cen­ tral Association, and it means also that the University is on the NCA's regular ten-year review cycle. The excellence of our programs that made this accreditation possible is the direct result of careful planning and quality efforts by many individuals over many years. Ball State University offered its first doctoral programs in 1961 ; since then 459 individuals have been awarded the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Doctor of Education, or Doctor of Arts.

    FINANCIAL REPORT Year Ended June 30, 2013 Front Cover: David Owsley Museum of Art To The President and Board of Trustees Ball State University This financial report presents the financial position of Ball State University at June 30, 2013, and the results of activities for the year then ended. Randall B. Howard Vice President for Business Affairs and Treasurer December 13, 2013 REPORT OF THE TREASURER On behalf of the Board of Trustees of Ball State University, I am pleased to present Ball State University’s 2012-13 Financial Report. What follows is an objective record of the University’s stewardship of its human, physical and financial resources. Ball State University’s management has prepared and is responsible for the completeness and fairness of the financial statements and the related footnote disclosures included in this report, along with the discussion and analysis. Ball State is currently at an exciting juncture in its 95-year history. The increasingly global, technology-driven marketplace is demanding new skills of college graduates. The University has taken a proactive approach in recognizing these changing dynamics and responding with bold steps to ensure its competitiveness as a top-quality choice in public higher education. Ball State’s response is multi-faceted but can be summarized with one word – “distinctiveness”. The health of the University, which is defined by quality students and quality faculty, relies on being known for unique qualities and attributes. Before you get to the Financial Statements, I wanted to share with you a little bit about the University itself, our history and composition, and to highlight some of the exciting news from our Strategic Plan and the distinctive education that we provide at Ball State.
