O HI O liNl y it RsitY Interoffice Communication Date: March 28, 2005 To: The President and Board of Trustees From: Larry A. Corrigan Interim Vice President for Finance and Administration and Treasurer Re: RESOLUTION FOR PROJECT APPROVAL AND AUTHORIZATION TO HIRE CONSULTANTS AND DEVELOP CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS FOR BASIC RENOVATION PROJECTS ON THE ATHENS AND REGIONAL CAMPUSES Amended Substitute House Bill Number 16, which was passed and approved by the Governor in February 2005, contains a basic renovations appropriation available for use on the main campus of $4,359,577. In addition, the five regional campuses received basic renovation appropriations totaling $890,086 as follows: Eastern Campus, $161,266; Lancaster Campus, $220,122; Zanesville Campus, $208,065; Chillicothe Campus, $191,356; and Southern or Ironton Campus, $109,277. Following discussions with representatives of the Provost's Office, directors in Administration, the Deans of the Regional Campus System, the Office of the Vice President for Regional Higher Education and the Ohio Board of Regents, I would like to recommend the expenditure of the basic renovation funds in the following manner: A. ATHENS CAMPUS 1. ALDEN LIBRARY ADA RAMP ($400,000) This project will provide an accessible entrance on the Park Place side of Alden Library. Presently the only accessible ADA entrance is located on the College Green side of the Library. The new Park Place ramp will provide direct access to the newly renovated learning commons on the second floor. An associate architect was hired with previous Basic Renovation dollars and the present allocation of $400,000 is for construction contracts. 2. ALDEN LIBRARY MASONRY IMPROVEMENTS ($280,000) This is an ongoing effort to address the aging masonry on the core campus buildings. These funds will be used to tuck-point masonry, re-set stone and address deteriorating parapet walls on the building. The brick veneer facing Park Place is separating from the building and bricks are loose. This project will re-anchor the veneer and tuck- point the mortar joints as needed to re-establish the integrity of the wall. 3. CHUBB HALL ELEVATOR ($480,000) This project involves the installation of a new elevator at Chubb Hall. Currently the building houses the office of admissions, business and residence services, the office • of the bursar, records and student registration.. The new elevator is necessary to Page 2 of 4 accommodate handicapped students and employees and make all areas of the building accessible. 4. CLIPPINGER HALL MASONRY IMPROVEMENTS ($280,000) This project will include stone repair work on the building structure, tuck-pointing masonry walls and the repair of concrete that has started to spall. In addition an investigation of the overhang at the front entrance at University Terrace will be conducted to determine the extent of deterioration. Clippinger Hall houses both the chemistry and physics departments. 5. EAST GREEN STORM SEWER ($400,000) This project involves the replacement of the storm sewer system from Morton Hall through the East and North Greens to the Hocking River next to Mill Street Apartments. These pipes have deteriorated and are penetrated by tree roots. The work will be completed in two phases. The first phase will be to install a new storm water system from the Hocking River to Stewart Street. The second phase will be to install a continuation of the storm water system from Stewart Street to both the East and North Greens. Local funding (matching Auxiliary funding) will be available as part of this project. 6. ELLIS HALL ROOF IMPROVEMENT ($475,000) These funds will be used to complete the second phase of roof improvements to Ellis Hall. The first phase of the project included the complete design for both phases as well as the replacement of deteriorated structural members and sheeting. The second phase of the project will involve replacing the existing roof tile, gutters and downspouts. The replacement of the existing roof tile will utilize both new and surplus tile. 7. GROSVENOR HALL FIRE ALARM SYSTEM UPGRADE ($310,000) This project will deal with the replacement of the fire alarm system in Grosvenor Hall. Environmental Health and Safety, in conjunction with the Facilities and Auxiliaries Department, has determined that the system has antiquated panels and devices. The existing systems are original to the building and do not comply with codes and campus fire safety standards. 8. HUDSON HEALTH CENTER ELECTRICAL UPGRADE ($300,000) This project will install a new switchboard and re-feed all the existing panels throughout the building utilizing new breakers and the existing cables. Additional capacity at the existing panels will be provided for any future renovations. 9. HUDSON HEALTH CENTER ROOF REPLACEMENT ($320,000) These funds will address the needs of the existing roof, replacement of insulation and the installation of new shingles and the appropriate flashing work. The roof and all its segments have served well beyond the normal life expectancy, having been installed when the building was built in 1950. • Page 3 of 4 10. JEFFERSON HILL PEDESTRIAN LANDSCAPING ($219,577) These funds will be used to plan and develop Jefferson Hill into a pedestrian thoroughfare. The city of Athens will vacate East Union Street to the University. The University will close off vehicular traffic and develop a landscaped pedestrian way adjacent to the East Green and Putnam Hall. 11. MORTON HALL CHILLER REPLACEMENT PHASE II ($350,000) The current absorption chiller is a 300 ton machine that was installed in 1969 and is over 30 years old. The water tubes are plugged and are operating at approximately 30% capacity. The spray bars are sub-par and the seals are starting to leak and do not hold a good vacuum. It is estimated that this machine is presently working at about 50% capacity, and the load in the building has increased over the last 30 years by about 30%. The existing chiller will be replaced with two 200 ton chillers. Phase I has been completed (cooling tower and pump replacement). This project will provide the two chillers with associated pumps and controls. 12. MUSIC BUILDING ROOFING IMPROVEMENTS ($320,000) These funds will address the needs of the Music Building roof This project will remove the existing membrane system and install a new single ply roof membrane and the necessary flashing. The roof is leaking and has served well beyond its normal life expectancy, having been installed when the building was constructed in 1970. 13. WEST GREEN STORM SEWER STUDY ($25,000) This study will deal with the investigation of the existing 24" storm concrete piping that has collapsed and caused two large sink holes due to the heavy rains that Athens County has experienced recently. This has created a safety hazard to motorists and pedestrians along Shafer Street. The storm pipes are 17 feet below the surface of the parking lot and major excavating will be necessary to determine the extent of the problem. These funds will help the University in determining the extent of the problem and will provide a recommendation for correcting the problem. The consultant will develop bid documents and a cost estimate for the improvements. 14. CONTINGENCY ($200,000) B. REGIONAL CAMPUSES 1. PARKING IMPROVEMENTS EASTERN ($161,266) These funds will be used to renovate the existing parking facility and entrance drive to Shannon Hall. The paved surfaces will be examined for drainage problems and improved as required. Once sub-base and drainage issues are corrected, the work area will be over laid with a new wearing course. 2. NEW SERVICE ROADWAY-- LANCASTER ($220,122) This appropriation will be used to reconfigure the main entrance to the campus along State Route 37. The Department of Transportation has developed a new intersection Page 4 of 4 with traffic signals. The project will be incorporated in the Brasee Hall 'New Front Door' project beginning June of 2005. 3. ESSENTIAL SYSTEMS IMPROVEMENT PROJECT -- ZANESVILLE ($208,065) This project will complete the roof replacement at Elson Hall and a partial replacement of the roof on College Hall. This project is jointly funded with monies from both Ohio University Zanesville and Zane State College. 4. BENNETT HALL IMPROVEMENTS-- CHILLICOTHE ($191,356) This project will serve as an ongoing interior renovation to the finishes, furnishings and equipment in Bennett Hall. 5. CAMPUS IMPROVEMENTS -- SOUTHERN ($109,277) These funds will be used to replace the EPDM roof on the Riffe Center. In addition the carpet will be replaced at the Collins Center. This carpet replacement project will also include ADA signage for the building. I would like to proceed with the projects identified above. Toward that end, I have enclosed a resolution for consideration by the Board of Trustees at their regular meeting of April 15, 2005, which seeks approval to expend the funds as described above. This resolution, if approved, will also permit the University to interview and hire consultants to prepare construction documents (as required) for the work outlined. In the case of the Alden Library ADA Ramp, the resolution will permit the University to advertise for and receive bids and award construction contracts for the project. Cc: Dr. Alan H.

Corrigan Interim Vice President for F nance and AAd nistration and Treasurer Re: Treasurer's Report The fiscal 2005 year-to-date composite return as of February 28, 2005 was 6.95%, and exceeded the benchmark return by 31 basis points (page 2). The Ohio University Student Equity Management Group (formerly known as the Student Portfolio Management Group) and the three small cap funds have outperformed their benchmarks by wide margins of 234 and 1,580 basis points, respectively. Historically, the University's endowment assets have been allocated based on the Foundation's endowment asset allocation strategy. In basic terms, the Foundation's allocation is 60% equity, 20% absolute return, 10% fixed income and 10% alternative. The University has no allocation to absolute return funds and commitments to alternative investments are funded as capital calls are • made. As a result, the University's allocation to fixed income investments is greater than that of the Foundation (page 3). The University's non-endowment or working capital asset allocation is detailed on page 4. The information required by our investment policies to be presented to the Board is included on page 5 for the outstanding investment loans, and on page 6 for unrestricted investment earnings through February 28, 2005. Investment income is on target to meet or exceed the $4.2 million budget for fiscal 2005. The University's outstanding debt is detailed on pages 7 and 8. The debt schedule includes approximately $31 million of "indirect" debt associated with the University Courtyard student housing project.

High risk drinking often centers on the intent to get drunk. Negative consequences include physical harm to drinkers and those around them (injuries, assaults, sexual assaults, drunk driving, unsafe sex), disruption of the community (fights, disturbances), damage to the reputation of an institution, academic failure (by drinkers, roommates, victims) and damage to property. Approach Critical components of Ohio University s overall strategy for reducing the incidence of high risk drinking are expanding the availability of routine, appealing weekend and late night activities for students and expanding student participation in these and other activities that are already planned. •tudent participation in campus events and activities is a meaningful dimension of the undergraduate experience, one that contributes to student learning and growth. Such participation is also a vehicle for responsible socializing and developing a sense of connection to campus life that does not revolve around alcohol use. Such activities are at least as important to attracting and retaining students who do not socialize with alcohol as they are to providing an alternative to those who do. Three initiatives that have been undertaken in this regard are 1) to expand late night programming, 2) to provide incentives for participation, and 3) to make access to information easier. Program Initiatives Expand late night programming. Efforts have been made to expand the availability of routine late night and weekend programs since 1998. These efforts were abridged due to budget cuts but revived in the past two years. What has been learned is that students are more likely to attend events that are free, are offered each week at the same time and location, and have some particular appeal (not necessarily a mass appeal). Attached is a summary of programs: • Current activities • Recent additions • Plans for future Provide incentives for student participation. In order to encourage new first year students to explore the opportunities available to them and to focus them on attending a wide variety of activities early in their college career, a plan has been developed to offer incentives for program participation. A complete description is attached: • Plan for pilot in fall, 2005 Provide easy information access. As more and more opportunities for involvement and participation exist on campus, it is increasingly difficult for students to sort through the wealth of information. Three efforts have been launched to make Onformation access simpler and always available: • Online calendar of events • Online student organization search • Online catalog of opportunities Weekend Late Night Events at Ohio University Current activities • Baker Center Front Room Coffee House Concerts Saturdays, 9 pm Free concert performances by local and regional bands, complementary sub sandwiches and soft drinks provided. Game Night Fridays Saturdays, 9 pm — 1 am Baker Center Rec Room Open to students only, free billiards, ping-pong, and foosball, free refreshments provided. Late Night Skate Selected Fridays Saturdays, 11 pm — I am Bird Arena Free for Ohio University students, after every home ice hockey game, themed, with music and activities. Music Nights Thursdays, 9 pm Baker Center Front Room Local and national bands perform for the public. Open Stage Fridays, 8 pm — 12 am Baker Center Front Room Any student may sign up to perform on the Baker Stage and share their talents with the student body. Midnight Movies Fridays Saturdays, 12 am The Athena University Program Council selects and promotes films, subsidized ticket price of $3.50, themed per quarter. First Run Movies Every Thursday, Friday Saturday The Athena Three options each night, early and late shows, first run movies, on Court St. in uptown Athens. Recent additions • Late Night Poker Fridays, 10 pm —2 am Baker Center 1954 Lounge Open to students only, play Texas Hold em poker, no entry fee, prizes awarded. After Hours Fridays, 12 am —3 am Baker Center Corner Room Late night party with free drinks, food, and recorded music, comhole game, hosted by student organizations. Laughter After Dark Fridays, 12 am — 2 am Baker Center Front Room Live comedians perform, free, local student acts open the show. OU Idol Thursdays/Fridays, 10 pm Baker Center Ballroom/Memorial Auditorium Patterned after popular television show, students sing and compete for grand prize. Weekend Intramurals Fridays, evening Ping Center/Outdoors Pilot tested in winter and spring, 2005, total of 56 teams participated in Friday intramurals for first time. Planned or under consideration Walk-In Movies — Free, late night films on the College Green during spring quarter. Xbox Competition — Video game competition, different game each quarter, large screen with high quality sound. Expanded OU Idol — Same program but expanded to fill more dates and more weekend dates. • Marti and Stewi — Weekly arts and crafts gathering where students learn how and make items. Dinner with Faculty — Faculty who host students at home are provided with complementary prepared meal. Concept: Providing Incentives to First Year Students for Participating in Campus Activities As new students join the Ohio University community, many efforts are made to encourage them to take advantage of the opportunities available on campus —joining organizations, attending athletic events, volunteering in the community, getting a job, going to a play or recital, etc. These efforts are generally in the form of marketing- oriented communication — letters, brochures, flyers, displays, newspaper or radio ads, videos, websites, etc. Regardless of these efforts, high quality events have unused seats and some students have very limited participation rates. Is there a better way to get first year students to "try" events and activities that they might otherwise not be inclined to attend? Planning Principles • Student participation in campus events and activities is a meaningful dimension of the undergraduate experience, one that contributes to student learning and growth. • Student participation in campus events and activities is also a vehicle for responsible socializing and developing a sense of connection to campus life. • Students should seek to broaden their experience by taking advantage of opportunities that are new or different for them. • Students are reluctant to attend events or activities voluntarily, particularly if they are not perceived by peers as "cool." • We currently invest significant resources in creating events across campus that are undersubscribed (in the form of empty seats at lectures, performing arts events, athletic events, films, etc). • There is very little incremental cost associated with increased attendance at already-planned events. • Students will respond to incentives when offered. Concept By offering incentives, we can expand student participation in the diverse range of campus events and activities and thereby increase the return on our existing investment in creating programs and events. As an example, we could develop a "Bobcat Passport" or an "Ohio Guide" or a "Cat Pass" that would function like a passport in that it would be "stamped" at events to verify a student s participation. • During Precollege, students would be introduced to the concept - over time, could be integrated into marketing effort • During Opening Week Orientation, students would be provided with an actual cardboard and paper document that has in it descriptions of qualifying events and activities. • Included in the passport would be the contest rules: - attend a total of 8 activities by the end of winter quarter and you ll be eligible for prizes. - of your 8 activities, one must be drawn from each of these categories (for example): Performing Arts Series Athletics Kennedy Lecture/Frontiers in Science Diversify Your Campus—Your World Campus Recreation Baker Nights/Late Night Programs Theater/Music/Dance performances - plus an activity of your choice with your Resident Assistant or a faculty member • Departments hosting the "required" events would be provided with a means to "stamp" passports, verifying participation. - could be managed through ID card and electronic readers rather than paper • Students with completed passports submit them to a central location by the end of winter quarter. • A highly publicized, public drawing is held in spring quarter to determine winners.
