Board meetings and strategic plans from University of Minnesota System
The committee scheduled special non-public meetings as part of the Board's regular annual performance review process to evaluate the performance of the President of the University of Minnesota.
The meeting commenced with the approval of previous minutes. The President's report covered several key areas, including the vibrancy of the Fall semester, a tour of the Health Sciences Education Center, and updates on COVID-19 safety protocols such as mask and vaccine mandates, which resulted in extremely low case numbers. The President also detailed a shift in COVID-19 positive case guidance and the launch of the 'inform' page on the safe campus website. Significant discussion focused on public safety enhancements, including hiring additional police officers, a social worker, and a community liaison, alongside preventative measures like blue light kiosks and safety guide programs. The M Safe program review, related to UMPD, was also noted. Furthermore, the President announced several new leadership appointments, including Deans for the Humphrey School and CSE, and a Director for the Weisman Art Museum. Updates were provided regarding University history transparency efforts, the review of the namings policy, and an upcoming event with poet Nikky Finney. Other activities mentioned included Homecoming, the President's postdoctoral fellowship program, and ongoing board service commitments. Finally, the agenda covered reviews related to the PEAK initiative, the Twin Cities campus master plan, the strategic enrollment plan, and initial conversations on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
