8 1 PROPOSAL FOR BOARD ACTION Project Description: Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Procedures Revisions The CMU Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Procedures is periodically reviewed and changed to reflect best practices in the Student Affairs field, and the needs of the Central Michigan University community. The Board s last revision occurred in December A summary of the significant changes is attached. Interim Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Voisin and Coordinator of Student Conduct and Behavior Intervention Ben Witt are responsible for the proposed revisions along with Mary Roy, Assistant General Counsel who has reviewed the changes to ensure compliance with all legal requirements and regulations. Proposed by: Vice President Johnson PROPOSED RESOLUTION Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Procedures Revisions BE IT RESOLVED, That the changes proposed be adopted and the Central Michigan University Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Procedures be amended as such beginning with the Fall 2012 semester.

9 2 Proposed Code of Conduct Revisions Summary July 12, 2012 General: Changed all references to Dean of Students to Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs and all references to Provost to Vice President for Enrollment and Student Services to reflect changes in university leadership. 2.1 & 2.2.1: Added local ordinances to list of rights guaranteed for protection : Added group of students and registered student organization to those prohibited from disrupting university authorized and scheduled events. Also, that which constitutes a disruption is better defined under the changed language : Added authorized in order to better clarify who has control of certain facilities : Added CO2 - powered items to the list of items that forcibly emit projectiles. Also added black powder and various bladed items to the list of banned weapons, along with replicas of all weapons banned. Finally, added language that reinforces the State of Michigan s ban on concealed carry in residence halls and classrooms : Added uploading of copyrighted information to the definition of computer abuse : Added bullying to the list of behaviors students shall not engage in. Also added language regarding texting, social media, other forms of online contact, and a catchall regarding any other type of bullying and harassment not specifically mentioned & : Changed may be treated to shall be treated regarding violations by registered student organizations and violations of residence hall rules as offenses under the Student Code : Added retaliation to the list of regulations concerning student conduct. This protects students who file complaints or grievances; request administrative hearings; participate in investigations; appear as witnesses; and who oppose unlawful acts, discriminatory practices, or policies from retribution : Moved work or service projects to a possible condition of disciplinary probation as opposed to a standalone sanction to better reflect the spirit of such a condition : Added the possible requirement of an independent evaluation that CMU concurs with prior to a student or organization s return to campus following a suspension : Added death as a grave offense to which automatic suspension is mandatory & : Removed the signing of agreements by the student and Conduct Proceedings Officer to better reflect university practice on such matters. With our current software, the letter of mutual settlement is ed from the system and a paper copy is not generated.

Also clarified that the Conduct Proceedings Officer, on behalf of the university, will be the person to maintain all copies of such recordings.

10 : Added the right to cross-examine complainants and witnesses to rights of students charged; however, the method of such cross-examination will be left up to the Hearing Officer : Added the right to cross-examine the student charged and defense witnesses to rights of complainants; however, the method of such cross-examination will be left up to the Hearing Officer & : Added language that does not allow for additional witnesses, witness statements, or other materials to be introduced during an appeal.

11 4 Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Procedures 1. Preamble The students, faculty, and staff of Central Michigan University constitute an academic community that is committed to the preservation, communication, and discovery of knowledge, and to the active pursuit of truth. Consistent with this purpose, the University recognizes its obligation to afford each student the opportunity to develop his or her educational potential while retaining free exercise of rights and freedoms as a citizen. Such opportunity should be limited only by the necessity of insuring equality of opportunity to all students, and by the corollary requirement of orderly operation of the educational processes. Each member of the Central Michigan University community assumes an obligation regarding self-conduct to act in a manner consistent with a respect for the rights of others and with the University's function as an educational institution. As guides for individual and group actions within this community, the University affirms the following general principles of conduct. These principles serve as the basis for regulations concerning student conduct. 1.1 The community requires a system of order supportive of the educational process that is the purpose of the University. Primary responsibility for preserving the system of order rests upon the individuals making up the community. Each individual must accept responsibility for his or her own actions and values and for recognizing that such actions and values affect the whole community. Implicit in the community's recognition of the rights of the individual is an obligation on the part of the individual to accept responsibilities toward the community. 1.2 Even though there is a diversity of opinion regarding many ethical and moral standards, each person should endeavor to maintain self conduct in a manner consistent with respect for others and thoughtful consideration for the needs of society. In social relationships generally, including relations involving the civil, property, and personal rights of others, each individual has an obligation to act in a manner consistent with these fundamental values. 1.3 The educational function depends upon honesty, integrity, and respect for truth. Any action not consistent with these principles is unacceptable. 1.4 As part of the democratic tradition, members of the community should be free to study and act upon social issues, including issues affecting the University. Each person ought to learn and practice the art of thoughtfully examining controversial issues, expressing views individually and as a group member responsibly, and in a manner that is consistent with the educational purpose of the University. 1.5 The University community recognizes the need for the development of personal ethics and philosophies. The members of this community should be committed to broad personal growth and development in society, realizing that each individual has both the freedom and obligation to make ethical choices and to accept the attendant responsibilities. 2. Student Rights Free inquiry and free expression are essential attributes of a community of scholars. The freedom to learn depends upon appropriate opportunities and conditions in the classroom, on the campus generally, and in the community at

12 5 large. The responsibility to secure and respect general conditions conducive to the freedom to learn is shared by all members of the University community. Students should strive to develop the capacity for critical judgment and the ability to engage in a sustained and independent search for truth, while endeavoring to exercise their freedom with maturity and responsibility. As students undertake to fulfill the obligations and duties outlined in this document, the University community of which they are a part undertakes to respect the basic freedoms of students. 2.1 Rights of Students In recognition of students' rights and dignity as members of the University community, Central Michigan University is committed to supporting the following principles and to protecting those rights guaranteed by the Constitution, the laws of the United States and the State of Michigan, local ordinances, and the policies adopted by the Board of Trustees Students have the right to free inquiry, expression and association Students have the right to editorial freedom in student publications and other student media, e.g. CM Life, Framework, WMHW, and MHTV Students have the right to representation on the appropriate, designated bodies Students accused of misconduct or of violating University policy have the right to have a determination of their violation or non-violation in accordance with University procedures Students have the right to protection against improper disclosure of their student records Students have the right of access to their personal educational records Students have the right to access all policies, rules and decisions concerning their continued enrollment, and to the required course materials and facilities necessary to pursue their studies Students have the right to educational programs that meet the objectives of the master syllabus, to teaching consistent with those objectives, and to a learning environment that encourages the students' engagement with their education Students have the right to be informed by the faculty near the beginning of each course about course requirements, evaluation procedures, and evaluation criteria to be used, and the right to expect that those criteria be employed. Faculty members have the authority to change a course syllabus after the beginning of the semester and are expected to inform students of these changes in a timely manner Students have the right to take reasoned exception to the data or views offered in any course of study; they are, however, responsible for learning the content of any course of study for which they are enrolled Students have the right to be evaluated solely on relevant academic criteria and to have protection against arbitrary or capricious academic evaluation as described in the "Grade Grievance Policy" in the University Bulletin Students have the right to request and receive timely assessment of their academic work by the instructor, or in the case of graduate students by their thesis/dissertation/plan B committee chairperson and committee members Students have the right to request and receive a reasonable and timely review of their grades by the instructor.

13 Students have the right of complaint about academic matters if they believe their rights have been violated. When not covered by another policy, a complaint is properly filed by presenting the issue first to the faculty member or thesis, doctoral research project or dissertation committee chairperson. If not resolved, the student may take the issue to the department chairperson. If not resolved at this level, the student may take the complaint to the office of the dean of the academic college or the Dean of the College of Graduate Studies. 2.2 Relationships with the University As citizens, students have the same duties and obligations as do other citizens and enjoy the same freedoms of speech, press, religion, peaceful assembly, and petition that other citizens enjoy. In all of its dealings with students, the University will respect the rights guaranteed to them by the Constitutions and laws of the United States, the State of Michigan, and local ordinances All registered student organizations are open to all students without respect to race, religion, creed, sexual orientation, gender, disability, or national origin except that certain organizations (e.g. social fraternities and sororities) are restricted as to gender, as allowed under Title IX of the Education Amendments of Students individually and collectively are free to examine and to discuss all questions of interest to them, including questions relating to University policies, and to express opinions publicly and privately. They are free to support causes by any orderly means that do not disrupt the operation of the University. 2.3 Responsibilities of Students and Faculty Students should conscientiously strive to complete course requirements as stated, and accept responsibility to contribute positively to the learning environment established by faculty. Proper evaluation of students in a course is based solely on performance in meeting appropriate standards established and communicated by the instructor for that course. Each course has a master syllabus approved through university curricular processes, which includes a description of the scope of the course and a list of the goals and objectives of the learning experience. Faculty members assigned to teach a course develop a course outline, based on the master syllabus, to provide students with greater specificity about how the course will be conducted in order to accomplish the intended goals and objectives. Proper evaluation of progress of graduate students in thesis or dissertation work or other research projects is based on attainment of objectives established by the chair of the student s committee according to written departmental guidelines. 2.4 Relationships with Law Enforcement Agencies In addition to filing complaints under these regulations, victims are encouraged to report crimes to the appropriate law enforcement agency. The CMU Police Department is the designated law enforcement agency for crimes committed on campus. As members of the local community, students are expected to cooperate with all law enforcement agencies. 2.5 Confidentiality of Information All information about students' views, beliefs, and political associations that members of the University acquire in the course of their work as teachers, administrators, advisers, and counselors is confidential. Improper disclosure of confidential information is a serious violation of the obligations of a member of this University community. Judgments of a student's ability and character, however, may be provided under appropriate circumstances. 2.6 Student Associations

14 7 Students are free to form and join associations that advance the common interest of their members. Activities of such organizations must be conducted in accordance with University regulations and public law. 3.

Student Hearing Procedures for Charged Violation of Student Conduct Regulations Intake Conduct Proceedings Officer A charge may be made to the Conduct Proceedings Officer by any member of the university community or may be brought by the Conduct Proceedings Officer on one s own initiative stating that a student has violated the Specific Regulations Concerning Student Conduct (3.2). Students subject to the provisions of this Code are defined as all persons who have enrolled at the University, either full-time or part-time, pursuing undergraduate, graduate, or nondegree studies. Persons who have been enrolled at the University, and who have not withdrawn, are students even when they are not enrolled for a particular term. Students also include persons who have been admitted to the University and who, before their first attendance, participate in activities intended only for prospective students (e.g., orientation, leadership, band, or other camp, athletic training and practices) One or more Conduct Proceedings Officers shall be appointed by the President or the President's designated representative. The Conduct Proceedings Officer will make, or cause to be made, an investigation of the charge If, from the investigation, the Conduct Proceedings Officer determines the matter may be reason for discipline under the student conduct regulations, the Conduct Proceedings Officer will notify the student that a charge has been made and will offer the student an opportunity to discuss the matter. If notified by either United States mail or by University , the notice will be mailed to the last address for the student on file with the University Office of the Registrar. The notice will be deemed received two (2) days following the date the notice is posted at facilities of the United States Post Office or electronically sent via . In the absence of mailing, personal delivery to the student cited, or delivery to the last address on file in the Office of the Registrar constitutes proper notice. If personal delivery to the student or delivery to the last address is used, the date notice is so delivered shall be deemed the date the notice is received. The student will have two (2) days from the date of receipt in which to respond to this notice. If the student has not responded at the end of this two-day period, the Conduct Proceedings Officer will set up a hearing, and cause to be delivered to the student a copy of this document The student may bring an advisor of the student's choice to the discussion with the Conduct Proceedings Officer. If the student s advisor is an attorney, the student must notify the Conduct Proceedings Officer of this at least three (3) business days in advance of the discussion. The advisor s role is limited to providing advice to the student. The advisor is not permitted to ask or answer questions or make oral arguments. Any case presented must be made by the student If the student chooses to discuss the matter, the Conduct Proceedings Officer will at the discussion inform the student of the charge(s) and the regulation(s) which are alleged to have been violated and will explain to the student the process outlined in this document If the charge is against a graduate student for a violation of the Policy on Academic Integrity, then the matter will be handled under Section Student Admits Violation If the student admits to the violation, the Conduct Proceedings Officer may: a) Issue a sanction

21 14 b) Order that the sanction be set by a University Hearing Officer, or c) Enter into a written, mutually acceptable, behavioral contract with the Student and/or d) Refer the student for counseling The student charged or the person or group who first brought the charge, or the university, may appeal the sanction (except the terms of a behavioral contract), by a letter delivered to the Office of the Conduct Proceedings Officer or University Hearing Officer within five (5) business days after the Conduct Proceedings Officer has set the sanction. Since admission of the violation by the student is a prerequisite to the Conduct Proceedings Officer acting under this section, such an appeal will only be as to the appropriateness of the sanction and not the fact of whether the violation occurred. Once a student admits a violation for which there is an automatic sanction, the sanction is automatically imposed and only the terms of a suspension may be appealed. The appeal is to the Appeals Board Student Does Not Admit Violation After discussion with the student, the Conduct Proceedings Officer may determine that the matter requires no further action. The Conduct Proceedings Officer will refer the matter for hearing if: The student denies the charge and the Conduct Proceedings Officer determines the matter may be reason for discipline The student chooses not to discuss the matter at the discussion offered by the Conduct Proceedings Officer. The student will be notified of the date and time of the hearing Alternative Resolution Mutual Settlement. In lieu of referral to a hearing, the Conduct Proceedings Officer may offer or accept mutual settlements of any charged violations under this code. Settlements shall be in writing and shall state the conditions of the agreement and any sanctions imposed. Mutual settlements may not be appealed. Cases not settled in a timely manner shall proceed to a hearing Counseling. In lieu of, or in addition to, a sanction or referral to a hearing the Conduct Proceedings Officer may refer the student for psychological counseling Behavioral Contract. In lieu of, or in addition to, a sanction or referral to a hearing, the Conduct Proceedings Officer may arrange a behavioral contract with the student. A behavioral contract is a mutually acceptable agreement between the University and a student that specifies certain behavior with which the student must comply, and specifies automatic sanctions that will be imposed if the contract is broken. If the contract is broken, as determined by a finding of fact under procedures set forth in Article 5 herein, the student may be suspended from the University as determined by the Conduct Proceedings Officer. In cases where suspension is automatic under the terms of a behavioral contract, a hearing to determine if the contract has been broken will be on fact only Referral to Behavioral Evaluation Team. In lieu of referral to a hearing, the Conduct Proceedings Officer and the student may agree to referral to a process provided by the Behavior Evaluation Team. This option is available in situations where the alleged conduct of the student appears to be related to a mental disorder or emotional problem.

22 Hearings There are two hearing forums: The University Hearing Officer and the University Hearing Body. The Conduct Proceedings Officer will assign a case to one of these forums, except that in cases where there is potential for a sanction of suspension or dismissal, the student may choose which hearing forum will hear the case. The student will have two (2) business days from the date of the meeting with the Conduct Proceedings Officer to make a final choice in writing to the Conduct Proceedings Officer. If no such timely choice is made, the Conduct Proceedings Officer will designate whether the case will be heard by a Hearing Officer or Hearing Body. The student will be notified of the time and date of the hearing University Hearing Officer One or more University Hearing Officers will be appointed by the President or the President's designee and must participate in the appropriate training sessions regarding the Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Proceedings The University Hearing Officer will be assigned by the President or the President's designee to hear the case The University Hearing Officer, based on the information presented at the hearing, determines whether the student charged violated the student conduct regulations, and sets the sanction, when applicable. Failure to complete the terms of the sanction may result in suspension from the university as determined by the Conduct Proceedings Officer. Certain violations have automatic sanctions imposed according to Section 4.4. In such cases, the University Hearing Officer will decide if a violation has occurred and, if so, the terms of a mandatory sanction University Hearing Body The University Hearing Body consists of one University Hearing Officer and two students The students will be selected from a pool of students who are selected by the President or the President's designee in consultation with Student Government Association and must participate in the appropriate training sessions regarding the Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Proceedings The University Hearing Body, based upon the information presented at the hearing, determines whether the student charged violated student conduct regulations, and sets the sanction, when applicable. Failure to complete the terms of the sanction may result in suspension from the university as determined by the Conduct Proceedings Officer. Certain violations have automatic sanctions imposed according to Section 4.4. In such cases, the University Hearing Body will decide if a violation has occurred and, if so, the terms of a mandatory sanction Hearing Procedures In all disciplinary hearings, the burden of proof rests with the Conduct Proceedings Officer, who must prove by a preponderance of evidence that a violation has occurred The student charged may have an advisor of the student's choice present at the hearing. If the student's advisor is an attorney, the student must notify the Conduct Proceedings Officer of this at least three (3) business days in

23 16 advance of the hearing. The advisor's role is limited to providing advice to the student. The advisor is not permitted to ask or answer questions or make oral arguments.

The Conduct Proceedings Officer will coordinate procedures for communicating the decision The student charged has the right to cross-examine the complainant and any witnesses in the case against him or her. The Hearing Officer, however, has the right to determine the method the cross-examination will take (direct confrontation, submission of written questions, or any other method that, in the Hearing Officer s opinion, will elicit the desired testimony). 5.3 Complainant's Rights Central Michigan University recognizes that complainants have rights that need to be protected as well as those of the person who is cited The complainant has the right to have a person of his or her choice accompany him or her throughout the disciplinary hearing The complainant has the right to remain present during any disciplinary or appeal hearings The complainant has the right to submit an impact statement" and to suggest an appropriate sanction if the person cited is found in violation of the Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Procedures The complainant has the right to be informed in a timely manner of the outcome of the hearing regarding the findings and the sanction The complainant has the right to appeal either the findings or the sanction In cases involving sexual assault, the complainant has the right not to have his or her irrelevant past sexual history discussed during the hearing.

24 The complainant has the right to cross-examine the student charged and any defense witnesses in the case. The Hearing Officer, however, has the right to determine the method the cross-examination will take (direct confrontation, submission of written questions, or any other method that, in the Hearing Officer s opinion, will elicit the desired testimony). 5.4 Appeals The following matters may be appealed to the Appeals Board: The decision of a University Hearing Body or a University Hearing Officer as provided in Section 5.2. The appeal may be as to the facts found or the sanction set or both. If the sanction is automatic, then the appeal may only be made as to the findings, or the terms of a suspension. The appeals board may not reduce the sanction below the minimum imposed by Section 4.4 or by the terms of behavioral contracts or other disciplinary actions in which automatic sanctions are specified The sanction set by the Conduct Proceedings Officer after admission of violation by the student. Imposition of any automatic sanction after such an admission may not be appealed; however, the terms or conditions of the sanction may be appealed. See Section for more information regarding this type of appeal The Appeals Board consists of the Student Government Association President or designee, the Chairperson of the Academic Senate or designee, and the Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs or designee and must participate in the appropriate training sessions regarding the Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Proceedings An appeal to the Appeals Board may be made by the student involved, by the person or group who first brought the charge, or by the University An appeal is timely only if taken within five (5) business days of the decision appealed. An appeal not made within the time limit will not be heard unless the President or the President s designee makes an exception An appeal is made by submitting a written statement of appeal to the Conduct Proceedings Officer within the time limit. The written statement of appeal must state: the name of the person appealing, the basis of the appeal, the person or group making the decision from which the appeal is made, whether a decision as to fact or sanction or both is appealed, and the remedy that the person appealing is requesting from the Appeals Board The student charged may have an advisor of the student's choice present at the hearing of the appeal. If the student's advisor is an attorney, the student must notify the Proceedings Officer of this at least three (3) business days in advance of the hearing. The advisor's role is limited to providing advice to the student. The advisor is not permitted to ask or answer questions or make oral arguments. Any case presented must be made by the student The Conduct Proceedings Officer is responsible for notifying members of the Appeals Board of the appeal and for setting a time and place for holding a meeting of the Appeals Board. The Conduct Proceedings Officer will provide notice of time and place of the meeting of the Appeals Board to the student(s) charged, the charging party, and other University persons deemed appropriate by the Conduct Proceedings Officer.

25 The Conduct Proceedings Officer will assemble the documentary evidence introduced at the hearing, the record made of the hearing, and the administrative contact history made in connection with the matter and will make these materials available to the Appeals Board The Appeals Board may establish its own procedure for conducting any appeal appropriate to the circumstances designed to achieve fairness to the student charged as well as the interests protected by the Central Michigan University Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Procedures The Appeals Board makes its determination based solely on the record of the student's hearing, facts that are presented to the Appeals Board, and arguments before the Appeals Board. No additional witnesses, witness statements, or other materials may be introduced during the Appeal The purpose of the Appeals Board is to decide if the findings and/or the sanction of the Hearing Body were so incorrect that the decision should be changed. It is not the purpose of the Appeals Board to substitute its judgment for that of the Hearing Officer or Body. It is not the purpose of the Appeals Board to decide if it would have reached the same decision had it been the Hearing Officer or Body. It is not the function of the Appeals Board to rehear the charges against the student; it is an appeal of the findings and/or the sanction of the Conduct Proceedings Officer, Hearing Officer or Body only as requested by the person or persons making the appeal. The Appeals Board may: Find that there are not sufficient facts presented to warrant the findings of fact made at the original hearing and may set aside the finding or determine the facts differently Order that a new hearing be held Change the sanction Provide such further and additional relief or changes as dictated by fairness to the student and to the interests protected by the Central Michigan University Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Disciplinary Procedures The Appeals Board must hear the appeal within fifteen (15) business days from the date the appeal is made in writing and delivered to the Conduct Proceedings Officer A decision of the Appeals Board is final except that a decision to suspend for more than one week or to dismiss a student is subject to discretionary review by the Vice President of Enrollment and Student Services or the President (see ). Any student responding to a charge under these procedures, any person bringing charges under these procedures, or the Administration, may make a written application to the Vice President of Enrollment and Student Services to review such a decision made by the Appeals Board. The application must be received in the Office of the Vice President of Enrollment and Student Services within five (5) business days after the date of the Appeals Board decision. Failure to make application for review within the time limit ends the right to make application for review unless the time limit is extended by the Vice President of Enrollment and Student Services. The application for review must contain the following information: a) Name of the student(s) charged in the proceeding in which the Appeals Board has rendered a decision. b) Name, address, and telephone number of the person making application for review. c) A copy of the Appeals Board decision involved.

26 19 d) A statement as to what portion(s) of the Appeals Board decision the applicant wishes reviewed, and the reason(s) why the person making application for review considers the decision to be capricious, or the procedures followed to be fundamentally unfair. e) A statement of the relief requested from the Vice President of Enrollment and Student Services by the person making application for review. If the Vice President of Enrollment and Student Services elects to review a decision of the Appeals Board, either in part or entirely, the Vice President of Enrollment and Student Services may establish whatever procedures are deemed appropriate and consistent with fairness to govern the review The University reserves the right for the President or the President's designee to impose a different sanction after a determination of violation, than the sanction imposed by the Conduct Proceedings Officer, Hearing Officer, Hearing Body, Appeals Board, or others under these procedures. 5.5 Charges Involving Student Organizations All notices referred to in this document, when involving a Registered Student Organization, shall be sent to the president of the organization, at his or her last address on file with the Office of the Registrar, unless another representative of the organization is designated by the organization to receive such notices.

81 74 PROPOSED RESOLUTION Project Description: Amendment to Public School Academy Administrative Oversight Fee Section of the Revised School Code establishes authorizer funding as an amount that shall not exceed a combined total of 3% of the total state school aid received by a public school academy. This administrative oversight fee is used to fulfill the authorizer s legal obligations under state law and is deducted from the monthly state aid distributions to the academy. The September 1998 Central Michigan University ( CMU ) Board of Trustees ( Board ) chartering policies stated, To effectively perform the university s oversight responsibilities, the charter schools office shall assess an annual oversight fee of three percent of the funds paid to each public school academy according to the terms of the State School Aid Act. In March 2001, and retroactive to October 2000, the Board upon the Center s recommendation amended their chartering policies to calculate the oversight fee only on the foundation grant used for general operations as opposed to all state aid as permitted by law due to the fact that "categorical" or non-general operating funds are intended for specific purposes in districts with unique needs. With this change in 2000, the academies authorized by CMU have retained $4 million to invest in the education of their students. With no increase in the foundation grant since FY , the Legislature passed a $470 per pupil reduction in FY This amounted to a reduction of more than $400,000 in the administrative oversight fee retained by the university. After realizing higher than expected revenues within the State for fiscal year , there was a change to the State School Aid Act that created a new best practices incentive that would provide $100 per pupil for academies that meet certain best practices that the schools could use for general operations. Because this was introduced as one-time funding for FY , the Center did not retain 3% from the best practices incentive funds. However, for FY , the Governor proposed and the Legislature agreed that in lieu of increases to the foundation grant directly, increased funds to be used for general operations would be available on an ongoing basis through the "best practices" funding as well as similar funding based upon a school s performance. Since these funds can be used for any purpose under Sections 22a and 22b and are a partial restoration of previous funding cuts, the Center recommends that they and any future funding provided for general operations should be included in the 3% oversight calculation. Due to the state of flux of how school funding is designated and in order to ensure the current and any future changes are considered in the administrative oversight fee calculation, the Center recommends the Board policy be amended to allow flexibility for the administrative oversight fee to be defined on an annual basis, calculated on the difference of total state aid less non-general operating funding. The administrative oversight fee will be determined annually by the Center within 30 days after the approval of the State School Aid Act. Proposed by: Provost Shapiro

82 75 PROPOSED RESOLUTION Amendment to Public School Academy Administrative Oversight Fee BE IT RESOLVED, That item F. of the chartering policies for public school academies adopted by the Board of Trustees at its September 18, 1998 meeting, and amended on March 16, 2001, is amended to read as follows: F. To effectively perform the university Board s oversight responsibilities, The Governor John Engler Center for Charter Schools shall retain an administrative fee of three percent (3%) of the difference of the total state aid less non-general operating funding, which will be determined annually by the Center within 30 days after the approval of the State School Aid Act. This amendment is effective beginning with the fiscal year.
