ADMINISTRATIVE RESPONSIBILITIES AND
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
As President of North Dakota State University, I
am the Chief Executive Officer of the Institution. The president is
responsible for all matters concerning the Institution.
As President, I have full authority and responsibility to
administer the affairs of the institution in accordance with State
Board of Higher Education policies, plans, budgets, and standards,
including the management and expenditure of all institutional
funds, within budgetary and other limitations imposed by law or by
the Board.
Some recent
accomplishments:
NDSU's total enrollment has grown from about 9,700 students to more
than 12,000 students.
Graduate enrollment has grown from about 800 students to more than
1,600 students. An increase of 100 percent.
The 2005 Higher Education Research Institute Faculty Survey
reported that 76 percent of NDSU faculty have overall satisfaction
with their jobs, a ranking higher than faculty at NDSU's peer
institutions.
The assets of the NDSU Development Foundation have grown from about
$50 million to more than $100 million during my presidency.
NDSU has generated more than $1 billion in new economic activity
for North Dakota during my presidency.
Successfully completed and implemented NDSU's strategic plan for
diversity.
NDSU is ranked number 122nd in the latest NSF research expenditures
list making NDSU the largest research enterprise in North Dakota,
South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana and Idaho.
NDSU has developed many new and innovative academic programs such
as the Twinning program with India's Ansal Institute of Technology
and the Master's Degree program in Joint Military Logistics
tailored to the Department of Defense's strategic goals.
In 2003 the NDSU downtown campus opened which created a vibrant
addition for students in the studio arts and helped to revitalize
downtown Fargo.
NDSU research expenditures have grown from $44 million in 1999 to
$102 million in 2004. An increase of 100 percent.
In 2001 we established a Research & Technology Park which now
houses several businesses including two Fortune 500 companies -
John Deere and Ingersoll Rand.
Worked extensively with Governor, State Legislature, State Board of
Higher Education, North Dakota delegation, local municipalities and
business community to bring new Economic Development to North
Dakota.
Campus beautification projects such as the opening of the historic
gate to NDSU have demonstrated the new level of growth of activity
occurring at NDSU.
Reorganized the Athletics Department and approved the decision to
move NDSU from Division II to Division I in the NCAA.
Working with K-12 education to provide enhanced opportunities for
students and teachers throughout North Dakota.
Developed campus themes and goals for NDSU which has led to a unity
of purpose as we move to a next level of excellence.
Visited every county in North Dakota to meet with alumni, friends
and local business leaders. These visits are important because they
provide firsthand the public's expectations of NDSU.
Hosted, with Gale, dozens of events in our home on behalf of the
university. In doing so, we have welcomed faculty, staff and
students, as well as alumni, donors and members of the
Fargo-Moorhead community to the campus in a personal manner. We
also serve actively on a number of community boards and
projects.
Remained active in my academic discipline and have just finished
writing and editing a second edition of Wild Mammals of North
America, which was published by Johns Hopkins University Press in
November 2003.
Encouraged greater internationalization of the campus and recently
met with alumni and potential business partners in Europe as well
as higher education institutions in Germany, France, India and
other countries.
Hosted nationally known educational leaders including Peter
McGrath, President of the National Association of State
Universities and Land Grant Colleges, and Rita Colwell, Director of
the National Science Foundation.
Traveled, with Gale, to meet with donors in their homes and offices
and university events. The President's Circle, a donor organization
started shortly after I took office, has more than 1000 members. In
2004 we raised more than $11 million from philanthropy. In 2005 we
reached the $15 million mark.
Instituted an administrative reorganization which made additional
resources available to researchers under the new Office of Research
and Sponsored Programs, under the Vice President for Research,
Creative Activities and Technology Transfer. In doing so,
significant increases were made in external funding and collection
of indirect cost recovery.
NDSU has increased research expenditures more than 100 percent in
the last four years from approximately $44 million to more than
$102 million. GAO recently notified NDSU that the university is
among the top 200 research universities in federal research funding
in the United States.
Through increases in research and development expenditures, NDSU
now ranks in the top 25 percent nationally in research university
research and development expenditures, according to the National
Science Foundation.
NDSU has had five new centers approved by the SBHE, including the
$8.2 million Center for Biomedical Research Excellence and the $31
million Center for Nanoscale Science and Engineering.
NDSU has added more than $1 million (including fringe benefits) to
NDSU's base salary pool during FY 2002 reallocated from internal
sources including enrollment growth and research grant indirect
cost recovery.
NDSU now has 11 partially funded endowed chairs. In addition, with
a nearly $8 million gift, NDSU offers a fully endowed faculty chair
in Civil Engineering.
NDSU developed and successfully implemented A Plan for Action:
Reaching 12,000 Students which outlines our goals for graduate and
undergraduate enrollment levels. The plan outlines the classroom,
faculty and staff needs related to this growth. Our total
enrollment has grown from about 9,000 students to more than 12,000
students. Graduate student enrollment has grown from about 800 to
more than 1,600 students.
The 2001 Legislative Assembly gave NDSU the authority to add new
and remodel existing buildings to accommodate this growth. We again
will have a record number of students. New construction totals will
approach $200 million.
In response to student interest, NDSU has developed new academic
programs at the doctoral, master's, and baccalaureate levels.
Overall, NDSU has added 22 new doctoral programs in the last four
years, and now has 41 doctoral programs.
Student research opportunities are being
expanded. On May 12, 2001, the NDSU Technology and Research Park
was dedicated. At this park, NDSU students will have the
opportunity to work side by side with private sector researchers.
We take great pride in offering students advanced research
opportunities at the undergraduate level. Construction on the
40,000 square foot building to house research labs and
administration and the construction of the 76,000 sq. ft. Center
for Nanoscale Science and Engineering has been completed.
Phoenix International (Deere and Company) has opened its primary
research and development center at the NDSU Research and Technology
Park. This facility employs more than 200 engineers and scientists.
Phoenix was ready to relocate to Springfield, Ill., but because of
the Research and Technology Park partnership, we were able to
retain them in Fargo. Currently, five additional companies from
outside of North Dakota are negotiating to relocate to the NDSU
Research and Technology Park.
NDSU has accepted a series of recommendations to strengthen the
Greek Life system, including a new substance-free policy which bans
alcohol in all common areas of campus fraternity houses. The
recommendations, with full implementation in the fall of 2003, were
negotiated with and accepted by both university and Greek Life
leadership.
We have expanded Service Learning opportunities for students at
NDSU more fully integrating Service Learning in the classroom by
adding a faculty coordinator to this important part of the
students' educational experience at NDSU.
NDSU alumni and friends are in the "silent phase" of the
university's next major capital campaign. The last campaign,
completed in 1997, raised more than its $20 million goal and was
completed in less than four of the scheduled five years. The
current campaign is a $75 million capital campaign and we have
already reached $60 million.
NDSU has completed a new facility for our new equine program, F
Court, Living Learning Center and a historic downtown campus,
Criminal Justice Building, and Graduate Center. Several
construction projects are under way at NDSU, many that are the
direct result of partnerships with other groups, including a new
building for the College of Business Administration, a new Bison
Court, a teaching hotel, and Memorial Union expansion.
NDSU has increased federal and private research expenditures to
more than $100 million in fiscal year 2004. The increase from last
year continues to help regional economic growth and new resources
to support the full range of university programs.
NDSU researchers were awarded several patents for developing new
technologies. The work ranges from DNA encoding of a E.
coli gene to an oilbased coating method to prepare beta amino
acids. We rank very high in patent income, in the top 60 out of 190
as reported by the Association of University Technology
Managers.
In June, 2000, our campus was inundated by a 100 year, eight-inch,
middle-of-the-night rain storm. More than $20 million in damages
were suffered on campus. The Industrial Agricultural Communications
Center, the main branch of the NDSU Libraries, the Memorial Union
and the President's house were among the hardest hit. Just prior to
the start of summer orientation, despite the flood, we showed
significant enrollment growth to a record 10,002 students.
In October 21, 2000, a fire destroyed F Court campus apartments. We
responded that evening with alternative housing, and within 48
hours we provided an array of benefits for the 32 displaced
students which included free use of textbooks and no-cost meal
plans for the remainder of the semester. Each student also was
assigned a caseworker to facilitate their personal recovery
efforts.
We responded decisively to incidents of hate crimes, specifically
the distribution of neo-Nazi literature and the defacing of
awareness messages sponsored by the Ten Percent Society. In each
case, we met with affected student groups and made public
condemnations of the inappropriate behaviors. We took these public
actions so that people will know precisely where this campus stands
on these sensitive issues.
