Discussion a. Board of Trustees Meeting; VP Mike Naughton Distance Learning Workshop- Online classes will be $35/class. Hybrid classes will have a different setup. Other schools are using this type of course setup. There are three levels of the online course: Never-in-person, Hybrid (50/50), and in class. There will be more opportunities available in the future. More degrees may be attainable from using online coursework and it will be the focus for the next few years. However, this DOES NOT mean that UNF will become a tech school like the University of Phoenix for example. It will be more like what UF and other larger schools utilize. The Board of Trustees visited the Student Wellness Complex which will be opening August 17th- the Friday before the fall semester begins. After the Wellness tours the BOT had a lunch break out and talked with SG representatives about our campus and anything else they wanted to talk about. The Finance and Audit Committee: The budget will be voted on next session. It was contingent upon the plans of the 15% differential tuition increase. The budget proposed did pass and will be forwarded to the entire BOT. Housing- They looked at the server, which is a satellite server and all the information from “breached” housing has been moved back in house. The IT Auditor’s job went through the servers and found that there was no hacking. They are going to do some research on new firewalls. Although the information was opened up there was no evidence taken. P-card Fraud: Those caught were relieved of their duties. Note: P-card access is a privilege. Student Life: CITF Funding was voted on to increase. CITF increase by $2 and combined with building fee $6.76. Phase II of the Student Wellness Complex is underway. The UNF Chapel and Greek Housing are in the plans. The future housing initiative is to have groups based on demographics to dorm with each other. This is to create living, learning members of the UNF community. Renaming of Building 3 & 4. They will be called North and South Skinner Hall. They are recognizing the Skinner family who has been major contributors to UNF over the years. The family toured the buildings and was honored to have their names placed on them. Academic Committee: Graduate degrees in secondary math and sports education have been terminated. The BOG passed the budget with a 13% differential increase, and so UNF will be taking the extra $ out of reserves for this year only. Questions for Mike Naughton XI. The setup of CITF and how it works. Online course and the quality/ how it will work with other UNF initiatives. Announcements 1.
