Campus expenditures
The remainder of the 2019鈥�20 budget, as reviewed to be approved in June, would include investments in increases in general operating expense to include graduate stipend increases, enrollment growth, libraries, information technology, utilities, an emergency stabilization fund in the event of a change in economic circumstances, and the strategic initiatives in which 欧美口爆视频 Boulder is investing for the future of the campus.
Social climate survey
Pat O鈥橰ourke, 欧美口爆视频 system vice president, university counsel and secretary of the Board of Regents, provided an update on the systemwide social climate survey. He reported he has engaged the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and the University of Massachusetts on a diversity engagement survey they have designed and tested.
This survey would address concerns about the prior survey in that it is a validated survey with benchmarking, only 22 questions, eight听dimensions of an inclusive organization, and will include reporting along internal, external and organizational traits. It will allow for actionable results, and the University of 欧美口爆视频 Faculty Council has endorsed the approach.
The Board of Regents directed Rourke to proceed with getting the survey finalized and implemented.
