The following Jndividuals responded to the invitation of the committee to present statements regarding the report

L L ' . ;. . v of the Committee on Social Responsibility in Investments. (

Those favoring a policy of divestment were:

Carolyn Bartholomew

Steve ~arlson' Richard Cooke The Reverend William

C. Hunt Professor Lansini Kaba Steve Loubert

Mark Lynch Andrew Meyer John Moorman

Carolyn Russell

Representing CLA Student Intermediary Board Representing himself Representing himself

Representing himself Representing himself Representing Progressive Labor Party Representing himself Representing himself Representing Southern Africa Solidarity Committee Representing International Committee Against Racism

The following two individuals spoke opposing divestment:

Francis M. Boddy, Emeritus Professor of Economics University of Minnesota Representing himself

Fred Germann Representing himself (

President Magrath presented a lengthy statement citing the pros and cons of divestment and then recommended against divestment at the present time ba,sed on the following criteria:

1) University investments in American corporations operating in South Africa do not constitute an endorsement of the governmental policies of that country;

2 ) The University must consider corporate gifts, including pension funds and other benefits derived from corporations active in South Africa;

3) There is little evidence that divestiture of University holdings would lead to any outcome other than having those stocks purchased by other investors;

4 ) The adoption of the Sullivan Principles by South African companies is a more socially responsible alternative, allowing trade union activity, increased numbers and functions of professional personnel, equal pay for equal work and elimination of on-the-job discrimination for black workers. (

President Magrath recommended that the following resolution be adopted by the Board of Regents as University

%. , ;. . v policy:

WHEREAS, the Regents of the University of Minne- sota oppose racial injustice, and'whereas such injustice and insensitivity to human rights exists in South Africa, therefore be it resolved that the appropriate administrative officers be directed to:

1) Actively pursue proxy issues relating to human rights in South Africa in those corporations in which the University has investments ;

2) Reinforce the University's position as a responsible, informed, and active shareholder; and

3) Work actively on the follow-up and implementa- tion of the Sullivan Principles, and to continue to provide leadership in this arena to other universities and institutions.

Regent Lebedoff moved that the Board of Regents divest of University owned stock in corporations doing business in South Africa in a prudent manner and as rapidly as possible but that prior to the sale of such stock a declaratory judgment be sought from the courts regarding the legality of such a divestiture.

Regent Moore also presented a statement indicating that after considerable thought she had decided to support Regent Lebedoff's motion. She stated that she has con- cluded that South Africa is a poor financial investment, aside from the concern for the moral, political, and social position of that country and that she could see no conflict in her role as a Regent in supporting the motion to prudently divest.

Regent Utz stated that he was opposed to the motion because he felt that divestment would not be effective in achieving the desired changes in South Africa.

Regent Goldfine stated that he opposed the motion on the basis that he felt more could be accomplished by corres- ponding and consulting with the appropriate corporations with shareholder resolutions rather than divestment of those corporate stocks.

A question was raised regarding whether or not any action initiated by the University of Ninnesota has had any affect on the human rights in South Africa.

Vice PresidenLBrown responded that the University had submitted shareholder resolutions to 16 companies

= , ;. . v urging those companies to adopt the Sullivan Principles and that 14 of those companies had responded favorably. A few companies had stated that their policies were equivalent to the Sullivan Principles. He further stated that the University has taken a leadership role in the position of trying to urge companies to adopt these principles.

Regent Schertler stated that regardless of which position the Board took, she urged a continual monitoring of the effectiveness of the Sullivan Principles.

The committee then voted by a majority of seven to four opposing the motion for divestment of stock in companies doing business in South Africa with Xegents Goldfine, Krenik, Latz, Lee, McGuiggan, Sherburne and Utz voting against the motion and Regents Lebedoff, Noore, Schertler and Unger voting in favor of the motion.

Regent Utz then moved to adopt the resolution which had been suggested by President Magrath, and the motion was seconded.

Regent Schertler stated that she would like to see the resolution altered to include the monitoring of the Sullivan Principles and additionally, the divestment of stocks in those companies that did not adopt the Sullivan Principles after a two-year period.

Regent Lebedoff stated that he would,bave preferred that his motion had been passed, but that he would vote in favor of President Magrath's suggested resolution as he felt it was an advancement in the University's policy.

Regent Latz moved that an amendment be made to the resolution to provide that the administration make a report to the Board within six months from the date of this meeting regarding the corporate response to and the effectiveness of the Sullivan Principles. The motion was seconded and unanimously carried.

The committee voted unanimously to recommend approval of the proposed resolution as amended.

Regent Latz suggested that the administration and the Committee on Social Responsibility in Investments might investigate with Congress and apprcpriate federal offices other kinds of actions that might change the present condition in South Africa including an economic boycott of South Africa and make a recommendation concerning the same to the Board of Regents.

The meeting adjourned a t 12:OO noon. ,,

NONCAMPUS SERVICE REQUESTS

Vice President Koffler submitted for approval a list of noncampus service requests by faculty members.

The committee voted unanimously to recommend approval of the noncampus service requests.

Resent Latz requested that Vice President Koffler comment-on precisel; what disclosures faculty members are to make when testifying at public hearings or before public bodies.

Vice President Koffler stated that Regent Latz was referring to two recent news articles which made reference to the consulting policy of the University and the policy concerning the identification of affiliations by faculty members. He further stated that Assistant Vice President Shirley Clark gave both oral and written material to the author, Karl Vick, but that Mrs. Clark was misquoted and that there were several other inaccuracies as well.

Inanswerto a question from Regent Moore, Vice President Koffler stated that a letter to'the editor stating the errors had not been considered, but that the newspaper had been contacted concerning the errors and the implication was made that corrections would be made by the newspaper.

Vice President Koffler further stated that annually he sends out a letter to the faculty to remind them of the consulting regulations and the deadlines for reporting of consulting.

Vice President Koffler read the Regents' policy approved March 9, 1973, relating to the identification of affiliations by Regents or University employees when presenting testimony, as follows:

"In every case where outside employment or affiliation is present, it is the policy of the Board of Regents that any Regent or employee of the University who makes an appearance, either in person or by way of a written communication, before any public body, commission, group, or individual, to present facts or to give an opinion representing any issue or matter up for consideration, discussion, or action, shall announce in a clear, complete, and honest manner, in addition to the position held at the University, that he or she speaks not as a representative of the University of Minnesota but as a member of or a consultant for, and/or a paid employee of any person, club, corporation, or other organization for whom said Regent or employee acts as a consultant, member, or paid employee."

Vice President Koffler stated that he believed that the consulting members of the faculty interpreted and perhaps misinterpreted the policy as applying to appearances before legislative bodi'es only. He further suggested that any change in the policy might be construed as a change in the conditions of employment.

Regent Latz stated that he thought the policy was very clear and that if in fact it was being misinterpreted, any action by the Regents clarifying the policy would not change the terms or conditions of employment. Regent Latz requested that Vice President Koffler draft a statement clarifying interpretations of the policy.

January 11, 1979

A meeting of the Student Concerns Committee of the Board of Regents was held on Thursday, January 11, 1979, at 1:30 p.m. in Room 300, Morrill Hall.

Regents present: Regent Goldfine, presiding; Regents Latz, Lebedoff, Lee, and Schertler.

Staff present: Vice Presidents Brown and Wilderson; Secretary Wilson; Messrs. Imholte, Smith, and Zander.

Student Representatives present: Juan Hernandez and Laurie Wilson.

Regent Goldfine introduced the new Student Representa- tives to the Student Concerns Committee, Juan Hernandez, from the Minneapolis campus, and Laurie Wilson, from the Duluth campus. He also introduced John Delaney, a Student Representative alternate.

RESPONSE TO ST. PAUL STUDENT CONCERNS

Vice President Wilderson presented responses to the St. Paul student concerns which were expressed at the December committee meeting. He stated that with regard to the recreational facilities, his office will recommend that funding for 10 outdoor tennis courts for the St. Paul campus be included in the next capital request. This component was part of an earlier request for St. Paul recreational sports facilities which was only partially funded by the Legislature. He further noted that an extensive assessment of all recreational sports facilities on the Twin Cities campus will be undertaken during the next biennium.

Vice President Wilderson also reported that with regard to the student financial aid administration on the St. Paul campus a special request has Been made to the Legislature for additional funds for the administration of the Federal Middle Income Student Assistance Act. A minimum of one new member will be housed on the St. Paul campus to assist students there if these funds are made available. He also stated that a request is now being developed for additional funds to obtain staff to provide additional services to students on the St. Paul campus.

Eldred Smith, Director of University Libraries, discussed the structure of the University library system

- . , and the hours of the Twin Cities campus libraries.

After some discussion, Regent Latz requested that the administration report to the committee the cost of increasing the number of library hours and possible sources of available funds to accomplish this.

Vice President Wilderson stated he would present such a report to the committee.

Regent Goldfine suggested that Mr. Smith meet separately with students from the St. Paul campus to discuss options for more accessible library hours.

STUDENT DISCIPLINE - APPEALS POLICY TWIN CITIES CAMPUS PROCEDURES

Neil Bakkenist, Interim Director of the Special Counseling Office, presented a revised Appeals Policy which would supersede the existing disciplinary appeals policy passed by the Regents January 11, 1963. Adminis- trative procedures to implement the proposed policy on the Twin Cities campus were also presented for review. It was specifically noted that the Appeals Policy, which required the Board of Regents'approval, applied to all campuses whereas the administrative procedures, which did not require Board of Regents'approval, applied only to the Twin Cities campus.

Coordinate campuses are expected to develop individual procedural policies or to adopt the Twin.Cities campus procedures.

During the discussion on the Twin Cities campus procedures, the following areas were identified for further discussion and review:

1) The right to have an advisor attend the hearing.

2) The possibility of tape recording all of the hearings.

3) Additional appeals in remanded cases.

4) Open versus closed meetings.

5) Past hearing data available for appeals.

Vice President Wilderson stated that the policy will be before the committee again in February for action and that the concerns identified in the administrative procedures will be studied.

1979 'SUMMER SESSION STUDENT SERVICES FEE YI

% . , ;. . v Vice President Wilderson presented the 1979 summer session student services fee recommendation to the committee for approval. He stated that the 1977-78 Twin Cities Student Services Fee Committee recommended $31.00 per session.

Regent Lebedoff stated that he felt since the Daily was only published three days a week in the summer, that the porEion of the fee for the Minnesota Daily should be three-fifths of the regular fee.

Associate Vice President Zander stated that he would take the recommendation back to the Student Services Fees Committee for their review.

Regent Goldfine suggested that the committee approve the 1979 Summer Session Student Services fee with the exception of the fee for the Minnesota Daily.

The committee voted unanimously to recommend the 1979 summer session fee noting that the Daily fee would be voted upon in February.

The meeting adjourned at 2:45 p.m.

GLENSHEEN - RECOMEilENDATIONS

Regent Moore s t a t e d t h a t t h e r e p o r t on Glensheen was p r e s e n t e d t o t h e Board i n September of 1978 and t h a t i n October o f 1978, when t h e Regents v i s i t e d Duluth, t h e y had a n o p p o r t u n i t y t o t o u r t h e p r o p e r t y .

Regent Goldf ine exp la ined t h a t Glensheen was a g i f t t o t h e U n i v e r s i t y from t h e Congdon f a m i l y o f Duluth and in t roduced two members of t h e Congdon f a m i l y , Betsy Mason and Mary Van Ever.

P r e s i d e n t Magrath s t a t e d t h a t t h e U n i v e r s i t y does a p p r e c i a t e t h e g i f t o f t h e Congdon p r o p e r t y and t h a t it i s h i s hope t h a t it can b e used i n a way b e n e f i c i a l t o t h e U n i v e r s i t y . P r e s i d e n t Magrath s t a t e d t h a t t h e r e a r e no l e g a l r e s t r i c t i o n s a s t o what t h e U n i v e r s i t y d o e s w i t h t h e g i f t , b u t it should be used i n a way c o n s i s t e n t w i t h t h e U n i v e r s i t y ' s r e s p o n s i b i l i t y t o look a f t e r and enhance t h e r e s o u r c e s of t h e U n i v e r s i t y f o r t h e purpose o f e d u c a t i o n a l programs. P r e s i d e n t Magrath s t a t e d t h a t t h e fo l lowing f i v e o p t i o n s might be cons ide red :

1. Operate the facility as a museum and for public tours. *

2. Operate the facility as a conference center.

3. Transfer the property to an agency such as a historical society.

4. Sell the property.

5. Convert the property to some form of income property.

He further stated that three options, 1, 4, and 5 made the most sense for Regental discussion at this meeting.

President Magrath recommended that the University pursue Option 1, that it operate the facility as a museum and tour facility, for a trial period of no more than three years if the University is able to secure from private sources the funds necessary to remodel the facility to meet the standards required for a public building. President Magrath also recommended that a time limit of no more than ninety (90) days be placed on efforts to secure the required funding.

President Magrath further stated that if the University is unsuccessful in pursuing Option 1, that he recommends (

that Options 4 and 5, sale or asset conversion, be explored. He stated that income derived from the sale or conversion of the Congdon Estate should be used for the support of University educational acti'vities.

In answer to a question by Regent McGuiggan, Provost Heller, UMD, stated that there has been a lot of interest expressed by various community groups to have various meetings there, and that income from these sources could be used toward the operation of Glensheen.

In answer to a question by Regent Schertler, President Magrath stated that he would not regard the operation of Glensheen as a mainline function of the University but that the University is a public service University as well as a land-grant University, and does many things in the nature of public service, if it is reasonably related to the educational mission. President Magrath noted that the University operates museums and that there are priceless pieces of art in Glensheen, and in that sense it would be analogous to the University's museum-type operations.

In answer to a question by Regent Latz, Vice President Brown stated that by June 30 of 1979, the University will have expended about $150,000 on Glensheen.
