FSU@MassBay will offer baccalaureate completion programs in Liberal Studies and Management beginning Fall 2017 on Mass Bay’s Wellesley campus.

Library ● ●



The Library’s Digital Repository Team presented Digital Treasurers at FSU at the State House where they highlighted the collection of 4905 works with 28,642 downloads researched at 1139 institutions from 126 countries. In collaboration with Career Services, Library staff submitted a successful grant to the MBLC for $6288. Funds were used to purchase electronic resources and support training sessions and workshops for students on topics such as networking and job seeking strategies. Library staff developed a systematic approach to prioritize building improvements and services based on student feedback. Annual observational studies, surveys, and focus groups have informed decision-making related to upgrades in study areas and services provided. An increase in the Library’s gate count of 46% since last year suggests that students are responding positively to the improvements.

Honors Program ● ● ●

Diversified our student population by recruiting students to the program based on academic achievement during fall freshman semester. Honors students competed 38 theses last academic year, a program record. Participated in Accepted Students Day as part of a recruiting effort for next year’s freshman class

Office of Institutional Assessment ●

Program Assessment: All Graduate and Undergraduate programs will have assessment plans by 2017 and all academic programs at FSU are on an annual cycle of reporting

● ●

assessment results related to student learning. In collaboration with CELTSS, OIA offered three semester long workshop series. 30 Chairs and faculty attended and produced Assessment Plans. OIA has completed one 5-year cycle of General Education Assessment. We have rich data documented in annual reports for program review of Gen Ed scheduled for next year. Obtained $120,000 in funding from Davis Educational Foundation for faculty development. Approximately 70 faculty went through a two semester long workshop series on assignment design and creating assessment methods for critical thinking and written communication.

The Advising Center ● ●



In 2013, created the Academic Advising Advisory Group, comprised of faculty and staff advisors from across campus, to share information between departments and units and the Advising Center; we meet four times during the academic year In 2016, collaborated with CELTSS to inaugurate and cosponsor the annual Advising is Mentoring and Teaching workshop; two workshops thus far have trained 40 faculty members on solution-based advising; becoming a culturally responsive advisor; and advising as retention, among other programs. Since 2013, created and coordinated youth mentoring program Pelham Pals that empowers middle and early high school students of Pelham Apartments Our House Recreation Center to maximize their academic potential. Hosted approximately 11 sessions each semester, impacting a total of 19 FSU mentors and 20 Pelham mentees over the last four years. Also enhanced College Tomorrow, a two-week, on-campus summer academic enrichment program that encourages high school juniors and seniors from the Metrowest area, especially those from underrepresented populations, to imagine a future that includes college. Since 2012 many enhancements have been made to the College Tomorrow program. Twenty high school students hosted each summer for a total of 103 students in the last five years. Implemented waiting list due to high demand in 2016.

Center for Academic Success and Achievement (CASA) ●



We launched Supplemental Instruction in 2012 with six faculty representing 10 sections in Chemistry and Biology. Today, we have more than 35 faculty representing six academic disciplines for more than 40 sections of courses with high rates of students earning a D, F or W (withdrawing). Student academic leaders serve as SI Leaders and work directly with faculty on content mastery. Students who participate in SI earn A’s, B’s, or C’s at a statistically significant higher rate than those who do not participate. A full-time SI Coordinator was hired to manage the intrusive academic support program. GenerationOne, an affinity group for students who are first in their family to attend college, was started in 2013. Incoming students are invited to a welcome reception during Black and Gold Beginnings, where faculty and staff who are also first-generation



share their stories to create a sense of belonging for these students. GenerationOne has heightened awareness of this student population, which comprises more than 35 percent of the FSU student population. Probation programming for first-years students was modified in 2014 and greater numbers of students. Previously students were contacted by Academic Success Advisors with little follow through by students to meet prior to the start of the semester. During the newly designed half-day workshop, first-year students on probation receive academic success coaching, academic advising, and interact with faculty about expectations. Intervention at this level has proven to be helpful in retention efforts of probation students.

Student Retention and Graduation Success ● ● ●

Launched Starfish (ongoing) Conducted nine registration/retention outreach initiatives Grew outreach team members to support FSU retention mission

Grants & Sponsored Programs ●





The Massachusetts Life Science Center (MLSC) provided two substantial grants of $3 M and of $454,000.00 for the build-out of Framingham State’s STEM facilities and for the purchase of laboratory equipment. These state agency grants permitted FSU to continue training undergraduates in the sciences for STEM careers. (Project director: Dr. Dale Hamel) The Massachusetts Department of Higher Education (MA DHE) decided to support Framingham State’s Commonwealth Dual Enrollment Program (CDEP) with a grant of nearly $50,000 in the current academic year. The state’s financial award allows underserved, first generation high school seniors and juniors to enroll in university-level coursework in STEM and in other disciplines. The program introduces students to postsecondary lifestyle and provides university course credit and content learning. (Project director: Dr. Scott Greenberg) The group facilitated the submission of two successful Fulbright Scholar Program applications. Dr. Ellen Zimmerman (Sociology) applied for and captured a Fulbright fellowship grant to provide instruction and to pursue research in India in fall 2017. Dr. Catherine Dignam (Chemistry and Food Science) and Dr. Manos Apostolidis (Chemistry and Food Science) successfully recruited a South Korean food nutritionist to teach and at Framingham State during the 2017-2018 academic year.

Each student is assigned a coach to help him/her individually with resume and interview skills. Service Programs: The Office of Student Involvement and Leadership Development (SILD) facilitated two service opportunities for students during spring break: o The Local Service Spring Break (Sponsored by the Community Service Club): Ten students and one staff member spent two days volunteering with A Place to Turn food pantry in Natick helping to support infrastructure needs of the organization. Then they spent two days working with Habitat for Humanity of Greater Boston assisting with building a home for a family in need. o Alternative Spring Break (Coordinated through the Office of Student Involvement & Leadership Development): 27 students and three staff members travelled to New Orleans for a week of service and cultural immersion. Students volunteered with the United Saints Recovery Project working on homes damaged by recent natural disaster’s (last summer’s historic flooding; the tornado that struck New Orleans East two weeks ago. Suicide Prevention The Suicide Prevention Task Force worked with the Massachusetts Department of Transportation to produce two signs identifying resources (a suicide prevention hotline and a call-to-text resource) for individuals in crisis. These signs will be placed on the pedestrian footbridge that crosses Route 9 and will serve as a suicide prevention effort to both members of the University



Community and to residents of Framingham who utilize that footbridge. In addition, the Task Force is in the process of finalizing a letter to MA DoT, calling for the construction of safety barriers on that pedestrian bridge as a prevention of suicide attempts at that location. Such barriers are demonstrated to be effective in the prevention of suicide. Ethical Citizenship Dialogues: The Director of Community Standards, Jay Hurtubise, has initiated an effort to explore the FSU culture and the perspectives of our students, faculty, and staff regarding the Student Code of Conduct and expectations for behavior. This effort is a fivepart dialogue series about Ethical Citizenship. The dialogue group is comprised of 4 students, 5 staff, 2 faculty, and 1 senior-level administrator, representing a diversity of perspectives. The first dialogue was successfully held in February, with two more dialogues scheduled for the Spring Semester and two follow-up meetings set for the fall.

Context – General Operations Historical Support

General Operations Support The impact of reduced state funding during the recession on general operations was somewhat mitigated by increases in student revenue (combination of rates and enrollment increases) and use of federal stimulus support resulting in relatively stable general operations funding during the recession; from FY2012-FY2016, general operations revenues grew significantly while FY2017 saw marginal growth. General College Operations Budget (State Appropriations and College Operations) 1.5% 8.2% 1.8%

Average Annual Operations Change (FY09-FY17): 5.9% (Impact of both enrollment-based costs and annual costs increases) Average Annual Enrollment Growth (FY09-FY17): 2.4% (Day Program)

4

Context – Trust Funds Historical Support Trust Funds Support Trust Funds that have revenue generating capability (Residence Life, Continuing Education, and Food Service) have experienced changes based on student enrollment and rates while other local trust funds (Athletics, College Center, Library, Academic Support, and Student Activities) have seen changes based on enrollment impact and changes in College Operations transfers support. Trust Funds Budgets – FY08-FY17

Average Annual Increase in General Operations: 5.9% Average Annual Enrollment Growth: 2.4%

* Residence Life has assumed some additional utilities costs and increased revenues have been directed to debt service and operations for the new hall. The increase in FY2012 is due to the opening of North Hall and the increase in FY2017 is due to the opening of West Hall. * DGCE revenues reflect both rate and enrollment changes; annual transfers in support of College Operations have increased, on average, 2.7% annually. * Food Service revenues have also supported dining capital renovations. .

FY2018 Budget Plan Assumptions FY2018 Budget Development Assumptions Category

Budget Plan

Collective Bargaining

All three contracts (MSCA, APA, AFSCME) currently not settled; budget assumes 2.5% annual salary increases (CC increases precedent).

State Appropriations

Initial FY2017 budget development plans based on anticipated increase of $280K (1.0%) to be allocated through the BHE funding formula; and, supplemental funding (assuming 2.5% cost increases) for collective bargaining.

Student Charges

Tuition and Fees increase of $590 (6.3%); aggregate comprehensive student cost increase (including room and board adjustments) of $1,000 (4.8%).

Enrollment

Aggregate Day enrollment target of approximately 3,900 total FTE UG (fall) students (represents 100 students, or -2.5%, decrease – based on level number of new students).

Inflation

General assumption of 2%-3% inflation; major exception is fringe benefits chargeback rate that is increasing at a faster rate and student financial aid increase of 5.0%; equates to approximately 2.5% adjustments on average.

Staffing Levels

Current FY18 budget assumptions based on hiring of carry-over tenure track positions plus additional 1.0 tenure track position and 0.0 additional staff (excluding assumption of Danforth Art positions)

Strategic Priorities Fund

Strategic Priorities Initiative Fund allocations to support FY2018 initiatives. New investment of $600K in FY18 represents $150 of proposed fee increase.

Trust Funds Support

Trust fund managers have been directed to submit FY2018 budgets accounting for level College Operations support and to account for impact of anticipated enrollment reduction.
