Executive Summary The University received $329M in research funding in FY2020 thus far, which is an increase of $13M (4.1%) over first quarter of last fiscal year. Funding from most federal agencies was up, funding from Private sponsors declined, and funding from the State of MN increased, as it often has in the past at this point in the state's biennial funding cycle.
The College of Biological Sciences had the highest funding increase this year ($8.9M). The College of Pharmacy also had a large increase ($6.6M). The Duluth campus had a $3.3M increase, most of which came from the State of MN. Funding for the Medical School, however, dropped by $19M.
Fiscal Year Highlights
• The U received 49 high-dollar awards thus far this fiscal year, the most ever received in the first quarter (by one).
• This was the highest funded Q1 ever as well.
• Carolyn Ann Fairbanks in the College of Pharmacy received a $4.6M award from the U.S. Department of Defense for "Therapeutic Development of Non-Opioid Strategically Substituted Agmatines for Chronic Pain Management."
• The Duluth campus had an increase of $3.3M comprised of 55 grants.
• The $19M drop in funding for the Medical School is primarily due to 11 fewer high-dollar awards than first quarter of last year.
• Carl Rosen in CFANS received a $6.1M award from the USDA for "Enhancing Soil Health in US Potato Production Systems."

July 2018 – June 2019
Residence of the President of the University of Minnesota
Managed by the Office of the President and Facilities Management
Report reviewed and submitted by: Eastcliff Advisory Board December 2019
Page 38 of 147 BACKGROUND
In the early 1920s, Mr. Edward Brooks, a local lumber baron, and his wife Markell Conley Brooks, commissioned C.H. Johnston Jr., an architect of record for the University of Minnesota, to create a home for his family. Completed in 1922, the resulting two-story, 20-room house reflects the family’s understated taste as well as the Brooks’ lumber heritage. Walnut, ash, cherry, cypress, knotty pine, and bleached oak were used in the construction and detailing; the unusually thick and wide, white clapboard siding was custom cut, and nine fireplaces allowed the Brooks family to burn wood from their lumberyards. Because of its perch atop the eastern cliffs of the Mississippi River, the Brooks family began calling the home Eastcliff – a name still used to this day.
In 1958, the Brooks family graciously donated their majestic home to the University of Minnesota. Today, surrounded by a white wooden fence, Eastcliff occupies approximately two acres and serves as a living laboratory. Faculty in design and architecture assist with renovations and improvements to the home and grounds. Artwork within the residence is on loan from University of Minnesota museum collections and in the gardens, sculpture further accentuates the property.
Since 1961, eight University of Minnesota presidents and their families have resided in Eastcliff. Eastcliff serves as a special gathering place for official University functions. Its historic architecture, welcoming public spaces, and manicured grounds provide a comfortable setting for friends of the University – students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors, community leaders, and public officials, as well as dignitaries from around the world. A carriage house, summerhouse, pool, and terraces enrich the property and extend the visitor’s experience beyond the main residence.
The Board of Regents created Friends of Eastcliff (FOE) and Eastcliff Technical Advisory Committee (ETAC) in the late 1980s to provide assistance and advice on matters related to the oversight of Eastcliff. In 2014, FOE was repositioned as an advisory board and renamed the Eastcliff Advisory Board (EAB). Both committees report directly to the Board of Regents. The EAB plays a key role in advising the Board of Regents on plans and major expenditures related to Eastcliff, assisting in the solicitation of private resources to support Eastcliff, and bringing internal and external perspectives to conversations about Eastcliff. ETAC brings subject matter expertise to the management of Eastcliff by making recommendations for the improvement, maintenance, operations, and use of the home in accordance with its designation on the National Register of Historic Places and its unique public and private uses. These two committees ensure Eastcliff presents an image worthy of the University’s rich history and tradition.

Page 39 of 147 EASTCLIFF ADVISORY BOARD
On February 14, 2014, the Board of Regents voted to reposition the Friends of Eastcliff committee as an advisory board rather than a fundraising committee. Renamed the Eastcliff Advisory Board, it now plays a key role in bringing internal and external perspectives to conversations about Eastcliff, nurturing public support for the home, and ensuring that the Board of Regents has appropriate governance-level oversight of this important University asset.
The Eastcliff Advisory Board (EAB) was created by and is accountable to the Board of Regents.

Page 66 of 147 FACULTY CONSULTATITVE COMMITTEE REPORT TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BOARD OF REGENTS
December 13, 2019
Chair Powell, Vice Chair Sviggum, Members of the Board and President Gabel:
On behalf of Vice Chair Phil Buhlmann and my colleagues on the Faculty Consultative Committee, I am pleased to present to the Board or Regents our committee’s fall semester report. My objective is to provide updates on selected ongoing efforts of the Faculty Consultative Committee (FCC) and Senate Consultative Committee (SCC). This report does not describe all of the efforts of the FCC and SCC.
The FCC leadership appreciates the Board's availability and openness to discussion. This semester, Professor Buhlmann and I met with Regents Davenport, Her, Kenyanya, and Mayeron. As has been the regular practice, the Board of Regents and FCC spent an evening at Eastcliff discussing University issues and further developing our partnership. Professor Buhlmann and I look forward to the fall leadership meeting with Chair Powell and Vice Chair Sviggum later this month and future discussions with all of you.
FCC 2019-2020 Priorities. The FCC selected three priorities for this academic year: 1) contract/term faculty and teaching specialist governance representation and academic freedom protections, 2) exploration of systemwide sanction guidelines for faculty misconduct, and 3) conceptualization of a combined mental health advocacy/disabilities services training program. The FCC formed a task force at the end of October to explore the conditions of term/contract faculty and staff with faculty-like roles, specifically whether and how to provide representation and academic freedom protections.
The FCC is in the early stages of examining approaches for disciplining faculty misconduct. We are consulting with the Office of Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action and the Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost, collecting examples of existing University of Minnesota colleges and programs codes of conduct and sanctioning guidelines, and learning from our Big Ten colleagues as we consider systemwide approaches.
We spent a third of our annual retreat in August focused on the Resolution on Education Around Best Practices for Disability Accommodations and Supporting Students with Disabilities that was passed at the final senate meeting this past spring. The resolution recommended that the University implement required education on accommodated instruction, testing, and best practices for supporting students with disabilities for University faculty, instructors, and student services staff systemwide. During the retreat, to better understand processes involved with student accommodation and to inform the development of future training materials, we consulted with Donna Johnson, director, Disability Resource Center; Kate Elwell, senior health promotion specialist, Boynton Health; Rebecca Ropers, vice provost for faculty and academic affairs; Katie Eichele, student services manager, Aurora Center for Advocacy; Ryan Machtmes, president, Organization for Graduate and Professional Students with Disabilities & doctoral student,

Building Names and Institutional History. On November 14, the FCC and the Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost co- sponsored, along with several other University groups, a community-wide discussion titled Our University History: Understand, Acknowledge, Engage. In attendance were undergraduate, graduate, and professional students; faculty, staff, and community members; members of the Board of Regents; and administrators from across the Twin Cities campus. We are looking forward to seeing the report generated from the small group discussions and contributing to the construction of strategies to make our University an inclusive and welcoming community.
Liberal Education Redesign. The FCC has had several opportunities to provide input to the Liberal Education Redesign Committee, chaired by Professor Sally Kohlstedt, through our regular FCC meetings and through participation in the fall public forums and November senate meeting. The FCC plans to continue to be engaged in this effort as final decisions are made regarding the model selected and certification processing are determined.
Executive Vice President and Provost Search. The FCC was an active participant in the selection of the next Executive Vice President and Provost at the University of Minnesota, meeting with each finalist and providing input to the president. We are excited to welcome Dr. Rachel Croson and look forward to beginning our partnership with her this spring.
As I close this report, I want to acknowledge all of the excellent support from the University Senate staff, especially Deputy Director Renee Dempsey. I also want to recognize all of the students, staff and faculty involved in the governance who volunteer their time and efforts to make the University of Minnesota shared governance model the robust model it is. I also thank you, the members of the Board, the president, executive vice president and provost, and University administration for your open and engaged consultation and commitment to shared governance as a value and process.
Respectfully submitted by,
Amy Pittenger Associate Professor in the College of Pharmacy Chair, FCC 2019-2020

Board of Regents December 13, 2019
AGENDA ITEM: 2019 University Performance and Accountability Report
X Review Review + Action Action Discussion
X This is a report required by Board policy.
PRESENTERS: President Joan T.A. Gabel Karen Hanson, Executive Vice President and Provost
PURPOSE & KEY POINTS
The purpose of this item is review of the 2019 University Performance and Accountability Report and related institutional data. This report provides the Board of Regents with the information needed to fulfill its accountability role. Throughout the year, this annual report is used by the Board of Regents and others as a reference guide to the University’s progress toward strategic goals.
This year’s report has been condensed to improve readability while retaining the key information and data contained in past editions. With the Systemwide Strategic Plan under development, this transitional-year report has been organized to reflect the proposed commitments, while anticipating that next year’s report will more fully align with the approved Systemwide Strategic Plan.
The report included in the docket is a near-final draft provided to the Board for review. A final printed report will be brought back to the Board for action in February. That final report will incorporate any revisions based on feedback from the Board, and will correct any errors found during a final proofreading review by section authors and administrative staff.
An external-facing companion piece has been developed for use by the Board and University Relations to communicate key messages about the University’s progress toward achieving its mission. A draft of this document is included in the docket, and it will be finalized and printed along with the full report in February.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
In 2000, the Board approved the creation of the University Plan, Performance, and Accountability Report. In its resolution, the Board noted that it “…holds itself accountable to the public for accomplishing the mission of the University” and that the report was to become the principal annual documentation of that accountability. The first report was published in 2001. In 2014, the Board revised the timetable for the production of the report to each December. In 2018, the Board changed the name to the University Performance and Accountability Report. The 2019 report is the 18th edition produced.

Gold measures represent data sources that are well understood and agreed upon, where there is the ability to set a quantifable goal over a reasonable time period, and where the University can take action to influence the results. Maroon measures are important trends and indicators, but the goals may be directional in nature or the measure may only need to be monitored, and University action alone is not likely to signifcantly influence the measure.

Page 107 of 147 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
At the University of Minnesota, we lean into our strengths and impact, finding our collective vision rooted at the intersection of our values and our action.
It is there that our core commitments to students, discovery, our state, a welcoming culture, and as fiscal stewards merge together to ensure a bright and flourishing future. And it is there, which we champion our systemness, with all of its unique strengths and imperfections which make the whole of us stronger and better.
From Crookston to Duluth, Morris to Rochester, and to the Twin Cities—we are one University of Minnesota, and as a publicly funded institution, we are accountable to the citizens of our state for how well we perform.
Our 2019 Accountability Report provides a comprehensive assessment of our performance as a university, and the results will support work towards a new systemwide strategic plan in 2020.
Thank you for all that you do for the University of Minnesota. By working together, we can be even greater, ensuring that our best days lie ahead.
President Joan T. A. Gabel

“MAISRC is one of a kind and the work that we’re doing is protecting Minnesota’s lakes.”
Angelique Dahlberg, PhD student
Guardians of the Lake Life in Minnesota depends on water. But zebra mussels and other aquatic invasive species are having a devastating effect on the state’s lakes and the businesses and recreation that depend on them. A project on Lake Minnetonka is looking for solutions to control zebra mussel populations and improve the health of the lake. It’s a collaboration between the University’s one- of-a kind Minnesota Aquatic Invasive Species Research Center (MAISRC) and the U.S. Geological Survey. If successful, the treatment could provide a blueprint for preserving this treasured resource.

Senior study author Bernhard Hering, professor and vice chair of translational medicine
Transplant Breakthrough without Long-Term Drugs
For decades, immunologists have been trying to train the transplant recipient’s immune system to accept transplanted cells and organs—that is, to exhibit “immune tolerance” to them— without the long-term use of anti-rejection drugs. Now, University of Minnesota preclinical research shows this is possible.
Working with animals, researchers at the U of M Medical School’s Department of Surgery and Schulze Diabetes Institute at Northwestern University have maintained long-term survival and function of pancreatic islet transplants after discontinuing anti-rejection drugs on day 21 post- transplant.
For many patients with end-stage organ failure, transplantation is the only effective treatment option. To prevent transplant rejection, recipients must take, over the long term, medications that suppress the body’s immune system. The immunosuppressive drugs prevent rejection over the short term, but because they suppress the immune system generally, recipients face the risk of serious infections and cancer. There are also many side effects.
In the new study, modified donor white blood cells, when infused into transplant recipients one week before and one day after islet transplant, safely induced long-term (at least a year) tolerance to the transplants.
Eliminating the need for chronic immunosuppression would substantially lower the risks associated with islet cell transplants in individuals with type 1 diabetes, and islet replacement therapy could become the treatment of choice for many more people burdened by this disease.

Board of Regents December 13, 2019
AGENDA ITEM: East Gateway Project
X Review Review + Action Action Discussion
This is a report required by Board policy.
PRESENTERS: Kathy Schmidlkofer, President and CEO, University of Minnesota Foundation Ross Levin, Recent Past Board Chair, University of Minnesota Foundation Jennifer Reedstrom Bishop, Counsel, University of Minnesota Foundation and Partner, Gray Plant Mooty
PURPOSE & KEY POINTS
The purpose of this item is to review the University of Minnesota Foundation led East Gateway Project (project).
As a land-grant institution with more than 160 years of history, the University of Minnesota has shaped and defined its campus community and the neighborhoods surrounding it for decades. The growth of the University and its rising global profile as an academic and cultural destination have prompted greater private investment in the surrounding neighborhoods. This growing interest presents an opportunity for the University to execute a vision for the future of its campus and the surrounding community.
The University of Minnesota Foundation (UMF) has worked alongside University leadership and staff to support the state’s land-grant institution in achieving its goals around education, research, and outreach. One of the most important current collaboration opportunities is fulfilling the vision of the East Gateway District, which sits at the eastern edge of the Twin Cities campus between the University’s medical teaching facilities and the Biomedical Discovery District. This District has the potential to fulfill the University’s vision for an integrated community that brings learning, culture, employment, vitality, economic activity, and residential spaces together to create a stronger, safer, more vibrant and inviting campus.
To remain competitive in the top ranks of public teaching and research institutions, the University needs world-class facilities and supporting infrastructure, as well as the ability attract top-tier students, faculty, researchers, partners, and others who will help shape its future. Placemaking can help support and increase the University’s competitiveness by creating a neighborhood that attracts and retains talented people who could choose to go anywhere – students, researchers, business owners, patients, and community.
Page 120 of 147
The East Gateway Project envisions a vibrant mixed-use destination where a variety of housing, office space, entertainment, hotel, and commercial enterprises will complement the University’s investments in its medical enterprise and its athletics complex.
University of Minnesota Foundation’s Role
The University of Minnesota Foundation (UMF) has been helping fulfill the University of Minnesota’s mission by connecting donors with projects and programs that reflect their values for more than 50 years. In FY2019, the University, through the foundation, raised a record $361 million in private gifts and managed a $2.3 billion endowment.
In 2007, James Cargill gifted $38 million in real estate in the Stadium Village area of campus to UMF. This gift, along with the University’s investments in TCF Bank Stadium and the Biomedical Discovery District on the east side of campus, prompted aspirational, visionary thinking around this area and how it could better serve as a new, intentional gateway to the University community. This led to the University and UMF discussing how real estate gifts and investments could be best used to advance the University’s mission.
The result was the creation of University of Minnesota Foundation Real Estate Advisors (UMFREA) – a subsidiary of UMF that manages Cargill’s gift (a requirement outlined in the gift agreement) and provides real estate expertise and advice to the University and UMF leaders.
As a private subsidiary, UMFREA was positioned to accelerate and elevate the University’s vision by leveraging the private sector’s connection to the University and the surrounding community. To realize this vision, UMFREA began acquiring property adjacent to the University’s East Bank and studying peer and aspirational districts around the country.
To realize the larger district-wide vision, UMFREA sought a private sector partner with experience of this scale and aspiration. UMFREA and its advisory council engaged in a rigorous national search process, targeting and vetting several dozen large-scale developers. The group ultimately chose the Pohlads (legally known as Marquette, LLC) as the planning partner for the East Gateway Project for their expertise, resources, and demonstrated long-term commitment to community benefit. As equal partners with UMF, the Pohlads saw an opportunity to be part of something bigger, a chance to leave a legacy to the community, and strong confidence that they could deliver on this mission focused vision with their development expertise. The result is the formation of a limited liability company, known as Visus, which is established to advance the East Gateway Project vision and plan.
UMF is now ready to review the project with the Board of Regents and then, with Visus, to present the project’s plan to the city and the market.
The Board of Regents will be asked to approve land transactions between the University and the foundation to align land ownership to development responsibility, a concept plan with related development principles, and a Memorandum of Agreement between the University and UMF around the roles and responsibilities in this project area. The Board’s input on these topics in December will be important in shaping that framework for future development.
