BOARD OF TRUSTEES THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK

COMMITTEE ON MINUTES OF THE MEETING ACADEMIC POLICY, PROGRAMS AND RESEARCH MARCH 2, 2021

The agenda items were considered and acted upon in the following order:

I. REPORT FROM THE EXECUTIVE VICE CHANCELLOR AND UNIVERSITY PROVOST

Executive Vice Chancellor and University Provost (EVC&UP) José Luis Cruz stated, “Good afternoon. During my report today, I will provide an update on policy and research related matters.

I’ll start with policy. CUNY’s Policy for Credit for Prior Learning (CPL) was approved by the Board of Trustees in June 2020. In Fall 2020, a University-wide Implementation Committee was charged with developing the tools, guidelines, standards, and resources for college-level implementation of three methods of prior learning assessment: standardized exams, non-collegiate credit evaluation, and portfolio assessment. The committee is currently engaging in preparatory work to determine course equivalencies and configure CUNYfirst to accept and transfer credits for prior learning, while also developing recommendations for rigorous academic standards and consistent business processes. The committee has also enlisted a national expert, Nan Travers of SUNY Empire State College, for broad consulting support and professional development for faculty, whose expertise in curricular governance and the operational components of CPL policies will be a crucial factor in successful implementation. The 12-18 month implementation timeline that was approved by the Board will be rolled out incrementally as programs are built and tailored for each college based on their academic programs. This work will provide the foundation for delivering upon the policy’s promise of more equitable access to academic credit for college-level learning acquired outside the traditional classroom.

I will now provide an update on a research matter. I am pleased to announce that timely research seed funds were invested across CUNY, through the 2021 Interdisciplinary Research Grant program. Out of 63 submissions, 21 research projects in the areas of COVID-19 and climate change were selected to receive seed funds, in amounts ranging from over $15,000 up to $40,000. The 21 funded research projects include 59 faculty members across 15 CUNY institutions. The majority of these projects support training of our next generation of scholars, providing support and training to 75 undergraduate and 12 graduate student researchers. Seed funds were invested in 8 climate projects and 13 COVID-19 projects. For example, Yehuda Klein (Economics, Brooklyn College) and James Biles (Sociology, City College) will use Systems Modeling, Optimization and Geovisualization Tools to Inform Community Planning and Policymaking in Response to Climate Change. Another project, led by Yoko Nomura (Psychology, Queens College), Chialing Tsai (Computational Sciences, Queens College) and A. Duke Shereen (Neuroscience, ASRC), will study the psychological consequences of the COVID- 19 pandemic, focusing on financial inequality. Two-thirds of the projects that we’re funding involve cross-campus teams, including collaborations across community colleges, senior colleges, and the ASRC. All are interdisciplinary, including a range of disciplines, from science and engineering, to economics and art. Thank you.”

RESOLUTION

to

Extend the Special COVID-19 Temporary Suspension of Standardized Testing Requirements for Undergraduate Admission

May 3, 2021

WHEREAS, On June 8, 2020, the Board of Trustees of The City University of New York (the “University”) approved the “Special COVID-19 Temporary Suspension of Standardized Testing Requirements for Undergraduate Admission,” which implemented a temporary suspension of standardized admissions testing requirements (e.g., SAT/ACT) for undergraduate admissions for the Spring 2021, Fall 2021, and Spring 2022 admission cycles only; and

WHEREAS, This action was intended to address the inability of many high school seniors to prepare for such admissions exams as a result of the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 public health emergency; and

WHEREAS, This action was aligned with the policy decisions of a majority of universities and colleges across the country to temporarily change their standardized testing policies for admissions by making the standardized SAT and ACT admissions tests optional or suspending their use; and

WHEREAS, This action was aligned with recommendations from the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC), which urged institutions to reassess the use of the SAT and ACT admissions exams in light of the disruptive effects the COVID-19 public health emergency was having on graduating high school students and academic schedules; and

WHEREAS, In response to this action and to maintain the University’s admissions standards, the University’s colleges developed and implemented more sophisticated admissions practices for Spring 2021 and Fall 2021 admissions, including using more information from high school transcripts, with a focus on performance in key subjects and expanding the use of student essays and letters of recommendation at our most selective colleges; and

WHEREAS, The University’s highest priority continues to be to protect the health and safety of current and prospective students, faculty and staff while creating the conditions for our students to make progress in their academic programs, for our faculty to advance their creative and scholarly activities, and our staff to meet our myriad programmatic goals; and

WHEREAS, In light of the ongoing COVID-19 public health emergency, which continues to pose a threat to the continuity of business and education, challenge prospective students to effectively plan, and has disproportionately affected the most vulnerable communities in the City, the University would like to extend the temporary suspension of standardized testing requirements through Academic Year 2022-2023; and

WHEREAS, This extension acknowledge the request made by the New York City Department of Education (“DOE”), that the University extend the “Special COVID-19 Temporary Suspension of Standardized Testing Requirements for undergraduate admission, recognizing the negative impact the pandemic has had on the number of students taking such tests; and

WHEREAS, This extension would also be aligned with similar actions taken by a majority of 4-year colleges, which have announced changes to their testing policies covering the Fall 2022 admission cycle and in some instances extending to the Spring 2023 admission cycle.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT

RESOLVED, That effective immediately, the University will extend for a year the temporary suspension of standardized admissions testing requirements (e.g., SAT/ACT) for undergraduate admissions and will communicate to prospective students that it shall not consider standardized admissions tests in evaluating their applications; and

BE IT, FURTHER

RESOLVED, That this action will pertain to the Fall 2022 and Spring 2023 admission cycles and the Chancellor shall take such actions as are reasonable and necessary to accomplish the foregoing while maintaining the University’s commitment to inclusive excellence.

EXPLANATION: A core feature of the University’s mission is to provide opportunities to lift all citizens of New York City, both economically and intellectually. By extending this temporary suspension of the standardized testing requirements for admissions, the University continues to be responsive to the uncertain and rapidly changing educational situation brought on by the current public health crisis while maintaining admissions standards through more sophisticated practices, including the use of more information from high school transcripts, with a focus on performance in key subjects, and the expansion of the use of student essays and letters of recommendation as appropriate. This extension will send an important message to prospective students and their families that the University values their health and well-being, which may be crucial to building the trust they need to consider enrolling at one of our colleges, while ensuring our high expectations of student success in college are reflected in our admissions process.
