June 25, 1993: Board of Trustees Regular Meeting Minutes

Abstract

Presented are the minutes of the 160th meeting of the Youngstown State University Board of Trustees held on June 25, 1993. This was a regular meeting. The oath of office was administered to new trustee George Limbert. Due to a technical error, the chair announced that Board elections previously held on March 19, 1993 had to be held again. President Cochran recommended the receipt of gifts to the University, and then reported on an economic impact survey, faculty workload issues, the current administrative structure, enrollment, and the Knight Commission’s recommendations regarding Athletics, and a functional mission statement. The Board then went into executive session, with committee reports being received after the Board returned to the public session. The Board resolved: to ratify faculty/staff appointments; to amend Board policies; to confer emeritus status; to modify terms and conditions of employment for certain professional/administrative positions; to ratify the YSU-APAs labor agreement reopener; to approve the 1993-94 Budget; to define the “tuition charge”; to authorize the disposition of gifts of stock and to establish a brokerage account; to establish banking services for deposit and credit cards; to ratify changes to the Academic Senate’s bylaws; to express appreciation to outgoing trustees Dr. Earnest Perry; to appoint a parliamentarian; and to approve standing committees.
