    The past year, 2009, will be remembered as one in which the University again set record

    numbers of applications, quality of students, research expenditures, commercialization

    intellectual property, and endowment. Thanks to the efforts of our dedicated and expe

    leadership team, we have navigated effectively through the years economic challenges a

    proud of our many successesmost importantly, providing continued access to high-qu

    affordable education for the Commonwealths most powerful sustainable resource: our st

    The UMass system is an education and innovation enterprisethe Commonwealths mo

    prolific public research resourcewith nearly $500 million in research expenditures. Acr

    entire system in Fiscal 2009, UMass generated $73 million in intellectual property income

    record performance that is expected to put UMass among the nations top 10 universities

    intellectual property income when national results are next published.

    Never has our commitment to academic distinction and affordability been greater. In F

    2009, UMass spent $97.2 million of its own resources on financial aid, meeting 92 perce

    Massachusetts students estimated financial need. UMass students received more than $500 m

    in aid from all sources. The need has never been higher. Since I have been President, we have g

    our own investment in financial aid from $36 million to $138 millionan increase of 28

    UMass stands at the forefront of the most important issues of our day. Students and fac

    are engaged in research that leads to breakthroughs in medical treatments, economic

    development, and clean energy. In an increasingly interconnected and competitive wor

    University is supporting global initiatives and programs, recruiting international studen

    faculty, and working with partners to provide study abroad opportunities, service learn

    projects, and internships. We continue to build and maintain the 21st century facilities

    our students and faculty need and deserve.

    In spite of declining endowments nationwide, the University of Massachusetts turned i

    a record performance in Fiscal 2009, ranking in the top quartile of American colleges a

    universities reporting for one-, three-, and five-year returns, according to the National

    Association of College and University Business Officers. We are deeply grateful to our d

    who have made gifts to the endowment, and to our investment committee, a talented gr

    of alumni, parents, and friends who are accomplished investment professionals workin

    behalf of our University.

    As you may know, I have announced that I will leave the Presidency when my term en

    in June 2011 to return to my teaching and research. It has been an honor and privileg

    serve as a steward of this great University. It has also been a joy to work on behalf of

    students, faculty, and staff of the University. I would like to express my gratitude to th

    many other friends of UMasselected officials, parents, and community leadersw

    have done so much to sustain and advance the University. We continue to count on y

    support and advocacy as we work to reach our shared objectives for the University an

    The strength and culture of institutions are tested during periods of volatility. The

    University of Massachusetts has not only endured the national and global economic

    challenges presented during 2009, but has identified and fostered areas of opportuni

    and competitive advantage.

    I am grateful for the work of my fellow t rustees who have given their time, money,

    and expertise to ensure excellence for UMass, now and in the future. As a result of

    their efforts and the astute leadership of President Wilson and Chancellors Collins,

    Holub, MacCormack, Meehan, and Motley, the University serves its students and th

    Commonwealth at the highest levels while increasing available financial aid dollars a

    holding tuition and fees lower than the average of its peer New England public resea

    universities. I would like to thank our elected officials for their continued support

    in these efforts.

    The University management has taken steps, in the Presidents Office and on the cam

    to reduce spending and to focus resources on growth areas. I would like to recognize ou

    rate faculty and staff, who should be commended for their steadfast commitment to th

    University and our students and their willingness to sacrifice in order to move UMass fo

    More students and families have looked to UMass this year. They understand in

    increasing numbers the tremendous educational opportunities that are possible at

    the Commonwealths public research university. This is the place where quality and

    affordability come together.

    As we prepare our students to act as fully engaged alumni and citizens, we conduct re

    that may solve some of our most significant global concernsenvironmental securit

    sustainability, access to quality long-term health care and new medicinesand provi

    them a path to participation in the world economy.

    As a graduate of the University of Massachusetts Lowell, I know firsthand how the

    dedication of faculty and staff shapes the future of the University, the Commonwealt

    the world. As Chairman of the Board of Trustees, I encourage you to get involved in a

    way you canwhether through alumni engagement, or as a parent, donor, or friend.

    University of Massachusetts is our asset to preserve and enhance.

    Recent findings from the Massachusetts

    Life Sciences Talent Initiative (MLST)

    study Growing Talent, conducted

    by the University of Massachusetts

    Donahue Institute, identified current

    and emerging workforce trends pointing

    to life science as one of the fastest

    growing high-potential sectors of the

    Massachusetts economy.

    Several recommendations emerged

    from the study, including the need toboost the states pipeline of residents

    seeking higher education degrees and

    careers in life sciences, as well as to

    further develop connections between

    industry and academia to maintain the

    Commonwealths position as a global

    life sciences leader.

    The University of Massachusetts is

    developing Masters level education and

    training programs that respond to the

    needs of this sector and for that, the

    Sloan Foundation grant cultivates life sciences talent

    Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, a national

    leader in promoting higher education

    in science, recently recognized

    our efforts. UMass was awarded a

    $124,200 grant to develop up to 10

    Professional Science Master (PSM)

    degrees, combining interdisciplinary

    academics, industry experience, and

    practical business and communications

    skills vital to the Massachusetts

    innovation economy. These include

    health informatics, biotechnology, andenvironmental service.

    UMass produces more life sciences

    undergraduates than any other

    Massachusetts institution and this year

    conferred 710 biological/life sciences

    degrees across the five-campus system.

    Led by UMass Lowell Provost Ahmed

    Abdelal, UMass has convened a

    system-wide task force to strengthen its

    role in fostering the regions scientific

    talent and currently is launching degree

    UMass produces more life

    UMass Lowell is at the forefront of this

    initiative, which offers four PSM options.

    Plans call for PSM courses that combine

    business and communications classes

    with internships in the life sciences

    industry, offered primarily through the

    internationally recognized UMassOnline.

    UMass PSM degrees reaffirm the

    Universitys dedication to educating

    students for the 21st century. The recent

    adoption of a Masters degree in clinical

    sciences at the UMass Medical School is

    another example of this long-standing

    commitment. Guided by world-class

    research faculty, our advanced programs

    continue to prime the next generation

    of life science innovators.

    At the University of Massachusetts,top-notch research programs are thecornerstone of an incomparable educatio

    ACADEMI C AND RES EARCH ENR I CH MENT

    engine, with $489 million in research expenditures in Fiscal 2009 support

    by sources that include the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Natio

    Institutes of Health, corporate partners, and other federal, state, internal,

    private sources. The Universitys research expenditures in Fiscal 2008 (the

    recent available comparison data) placed UMass 23rd among the nations public universities that reported to the NSF.

    The Universitys research enhances a wide range of academic programs th

    enrich the student experience, spur economic growth, and feed the knowl

    economy. With more than 35 nationally ranked programs across all five o

    our campuses and extensive global programs that support study-abroad

    opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students, UMass is leading

    the way in promoting innovative programs that encourage faculty across

    disciplines to engage in research, teaching, and service.

    Our thriving academic research environment attracts exceptional faculty

    members who are leading scholars in their fields and have received award

    University of Massachusetts Dartmouth

    Professor Brian Glyn Williams of the

    Afghan people he has met. They want

    nothing more than for their children

    to grow up in a country where thereis no war.

    Williams trains his expert eye on the

    conflict in Islamic Eurasia, conducting

    field studies and traveling through

    dangerous territoriesincluding a

    recent trek to interview the notorious

    and well-insulated Taliban-killer, warlord

    Abdul Rashid Dostumall in the pursuit

    of knowledge about the war on terror.

    Dostum is the master of Northern

    Afghanistan and the Uzbek people.

    Dostum and his army of turbaned

    horsemen were Americas greatest allies

    in overthrowing Taliban forces in 2001.

    Williams journeyed from Kabul, crossing

    the landmine-covered Shomali Plain and

    Hindu Kush mountains for an interview

    with Dostum, the man responsiblefor capturing almost all of the Taliban

    militants imprisoned at Guantanamo

    Bay, Cuba.

    Williams eluded a heavy security

    detail to contact Dostum and made his

    request. With the word tanamlets

    do thisthe anticipated five-minute

    conversation morphed into a two-week,

    in-depth interview.

    Not only did Williams get the most

    extensive interview with the warlord

    ever recorded, he also experienced

    the violent but beautiful Afghanistan.

    Williams was moved by the Uzbek

    people, some of whom slept outside his

    hut to ensure his safety.

    Professor Williams invigorated the

    classroom with stories of his time spentliving in Afghanistan and with its people.

    Learning the struggles of the country

    has helped me to see how these events

    tie into and shed light on 9/11 and

    why President Obama needs to deploy

    30,000 more troops into hostile territory.

    Can a building be aesthetically pleasing,

    environmentally friendly, and provide

    heat for an entire university campus?

    Just look to the new Central Heating

    Plant at the University of Massachusetts

    Amherst for proof.

    With its distinctive south-facing

    glass wall, rounded roof, and bright

    red exterior, you might assume the

    building is an architecturally innovative

    performing arts center or a sparklingnew sports arena. In reality, it is one of

    the cleanest heating plants in the nation,

    cutting the campuss carbon footprint by

    30 percent.

    The state-of-the-art, $133 million facility

    is a part of UMass Amhersts larger

    commitment to becoming a green

    leader and fostering campus-wide

    sustainability practices. It comes two

    years after University leaders signed

    the American College & University

    Presidents Climate Commitment, a

    national pledge to neutralize institutional

    greenhouse gas emissions and to

    accelerate research and education

    efforts addressing global warming.

    The award-winning plant sets new

    standards and is expected to save the

    campus $1 million a month in energy

    costs. It generates both electricity and

    steam, uses natural gas and oil, and

    can be expanded to burn such biofuelsas wood chips, according to James

    Cahill, director of Facilities and Campus

    Planning. It replaces an obsolete, coal-

    burning facility dating back to 1918.

    The facility is designed to meet all the

    campuss needs for heat and will be

    capable of producing 80 percent of its

    electrical load after an additional steam

    turbine is installed. The plant complies

    with some of the most rigorous air-quality

    requirements in the country and uses

    The plant recovers 80 percent of

    the energy used per pound of fuel

    consumed, twice the average of

    current power plants. The operation

    also will conserve 65 million gallons of

    clean drinking water annually by using

    treated gray water from the Amherst

    wastewater treatment plant to replacewater lost in steam di stribution and use.

    In 2008, the Combined Cycle Journal, an

    international publication that recognizes

    outstanding power plant constructions

    around the world, awarded the facility its

    Pacesetter Plant Award. The new plant

    represents a major step in transforming

    the campus into a statewide showcase

    for energy efficiency.

    21ST CENTURY FACIL IT IES

    Robert C. Holub, Ph.D.Chancellor, UMass Amherst

    To advance our goalof attracting the finest students and faculty, theUniversity of Massachusetts is committed to modern living and learning

    that enhance the depth and value of our educational environment.

    The University has embarked on an ambitious capital plan for 300 buildin

    renovation projects across the five UMass campuses. With support from t

    Commonwealths higher education and life sciences bond bills, the Unive

    will invest $2.6 billion in new 21st century facilities, energy improvements

    deferred maintenance over the next five years.

    Priorities include research labs, classrooms, and student facilities that fost

    alliances among academic disciplinesthereby exposing students to facu

    whose research yields expert knowledge, and teaching them to work with

    classmates worldwide.

    With these investments in cutting-edge facilities, we have every reason to

    confident in and optimistic about the future of the University and the stu

    who are destined to become 21st century leaders.

    As the University continues to

    attract the best faculty and the

    brightest students, we must also

    provide cutting-edge facilities.

    UMass Amherst is meeting this

    challenge with state-of-the-art

    facilities that support the unique

    endeavors of living and learning

    at a major research university.

    Heres a look at some of the completed or underway projects:

    UMass Amherst: The completed Integrated

    Science building and Central Heating Plant

    reduce our carbon footprint. Design is

    being completed for the new Laboratory

    Science Building.

    UMass Boston: The completed Venture

    Development Center includes lab space

    for entrepreneurs. Construction of a new

    Integrated Sciences Complex will providefaculty researchers with advanced labs.

    UMass Dartmouth: A 22,000-square-foot,

    three-story addition to the Learning Pavilion

    at the Charlton College of Business is

    planned. Renovation of the Claire T. Carney

    Library will include assembly and study space.

    UMass Lowell:UMass Lowell Inn and

    Conference Center provides housing

    hundreds of students. Acquisition of

    Tsongas Arena will provide events as

    academic building will address dram

    growth in the nursing, criminal justic

    English, and psychology programs.

    UMass Medical School:The Albert SCenter will be a state-of-the-art biom

    research and academic support cent

    including the Advanced Therapeutic

    to enhance progressive RNAi, gene t

    and stem cell research.

    The award-winning CentralHeating Plant at the University of

    Massachusetts Amherst sets new

    standards and is expected to save

    the campus $1 million a month in

    energy costs.

    The University of Massachusetts

    Boston McCormack Graduate School

    of Policy Studies is working to protect

    the potential of the sea with the

    Massachusetts Ocean Partnership

    (MOP), a university/stakeholder

    consortium designed to advance

    ecosystem-based management of the

    Commonwealths coastal waters.

    The initiative is supported by an $8.2

    million private grantthe largestUMass Boston has ever received

    from the Gordon and Betty Moore

    Foundation, a California-based group

    that rarely funds East Coast projects.

    With additional funding from the UMass

    Presidents Office, the MOP has helped

    Massachusetts to create the nations

    first multi-use ocean management plan

    that integrates public outreach, robust

    scientific data, and effective pl anning

    tools to streamline competing uses of

    ocean resources.

    Human impact is changing coastal and

    marine ecosystems, compromising

    beaches, seafood, and storm and flood

    protection. The MOP creates forums

    designed to reach solutions to these

    regional ocean management issues.

    Its work highlights the importance

    of balancing ocean use, including

    such technology as renewable ma-

    In todays global economy,university-based innovation ensures a strofuture for Massachusetts. The University of Massachusetts provides the kno

    and manpower crucial to advancing the states innovation-based economy

    Driven by our faculty, the five University of Massachusetts campuses supp

    the Commonwealths innovation ecosystem with talent, ideas, and discov

    that generate jobs, inspire new companies, and encourage industry partne

    across the state. With 66,000 students, the University produces 12,600 gra

    per year60 percent of whom will stay in Massachusetts for their careers

    According to a recent economic impact study, UMass contributed to $4 b

    of economic activity in Massachusetts in Fiscal 2009 through local operat

    and construction expenditures; and resident faculty, staff, and student

    spending. These outlays helped to support an estimated 15,000 additiona

    throughout the Commonwealth, yielding a total of more than 37,700 job

    Commonwealths $540 million support of UMass accounts for 22 percent

    Universitys $2.4 billion total operating budget, providing excellent return

    investment for the Commonwealth.

    Since 2004, the Presidents groundbreaking Faculty Science and Technolog

    Creative Economy Initiatives have provided seed funding for faculty resea

    in science, engineering, arts, humanities, and social sciences. In Fiscal 200

    UMass awarded $1 million to faculty, with President Jack M. Wilson notin

    With support from the Office of Commercial Ventures and Intellectual Pr

    the innovation-related income on each of our five campuses has risen stea

    during the last decade, most successfully at the Medical School. The Univeintellectual property licensing income soared to a record $73 million, up f

    into the intellectual property income top 10 nationwide. UMass expended

    million in research and development in Fiscal 2009, proving its commitm

    As a senior at UMass Lowell, Amy

    Osgood never dreamed she would have

    the chance to invest $25,000 in the

    stock market. Nor did she think that, at

    age 21, she would garner investment

    advice from such industry giants as

    former Goldman Sachs Vice Chairman

    Roy Zuckerberg, Ironwood Capital

    Management President Warren Isabelle,

    and Eastern Investment Advisors Chief

    Investment Officer John Kattar. This all

    changed when she and her team enteredthe annual University of Massachusetts

    Student Managed Fund contest.

    The competition challenges business

    students from the UMass system to earn

    the highest return on a $25,000 seed

    fund through real stock market investing.

    Each team started in January 2008 with

    $25,000 from the UMass Foundation.

    Although the students decide which

    stocks to buy, actual trades are handled

    by the UMass Foundation. Students

    benefit, academically and professionally,

    from collaborating with successful

    alumni who work in the financial sector.

    We had the perfect formula:

    outstanding faculty and alumni advisors,

    simple but solid investment principles,

    and most im portantly, the opportunity,

    Osgood said. Looking back at the

    Student Managed Fund, I am forever

    grateful for the opportunity theUniversity of Massachusetts generously

    presented us with. There are certain

    topics in life that have more impact

    when they dont come from the pages

    of a text book and this is one of them.

    The UMass Lowell team won the contest

    for the second consecutive year. During

    the 200809 academic year, Lowells

    fund generated a -4.25 percent return

    and overperformed the S&P 500 fund

    by 23.44 percent.

    9/15

    For decades, Medicaid and Medicare

    have provided a health care safety net to

    millions of Americans in need of acute

    care. Long-term care (LTC), however,

    has been more complicated to predict,

    structure, and provide consistently.

    Until recently, it has been on the back

    burner of the national policy agenda. As

    the U.S. population lives longer, elders

    and those with disabilities need more

    comprehensive long-term medical and

    social services and support. Now LTChas become a major focal point in the

    ongoing national health care debate.

    In late 2008, Massachusetts Governor

    Deval L. Patricks administration unveiled

    its Community First Olmstead Plan, with

    the states Executive Office of Health

    and Human Services (EOHHS) and

    Executive Office of Elder Affairs. Its goal

    is to ensure that elders and people with

    disabilities in Massachusetts have access

    to opportunities and support that allow

    them to live with dignity and as much

    independence as possible.

    Under this plan, EOHHS, MassHealth

    (Massachusetts Medicaid), and

    Elder Affairs leadership convened

    the Massachusetts Long-Term Care

    Financing Advisory Committee,

    composed of 24 public and private

    health care stakeholders and experts.

    The committees charge was to identify

    strategic options for a sustainablemix of private and public LTC funding

    mechanisms. EOHHS, MassHealth, and

    Elder Affairs called upon Commonwealth

    Medicine, the University of Massachusetts

    Medical Schools nonprofit consulting

    and service organization, to conduct

    the most comprehensive review of LTC

    financing to date.

    Both at the table and behind the scenes,

    Commonwealth Medicine has made vital

    contributions to the committees work.

    Substantive analytic support comes from

    its Center for Health Law and Economics

    (CHLE), with expertise from its Office

    of Long-Term Support Studies, which

    administers federally funded Community

    First and Systems Transformation grants

    in Massachusetts. The two groups

    prepared a policy development framework

    and background materials. CHLEs

    explanation of Medicaids complicated

    eligibility rules laid the foundation for

    meaningful discussion, and when thecommittee delved into the public LTC

    financing system, CHLE guided the

    committee through available options.

    We are proud to support the

    Commonwealth, said Michael F. Collins,

    M.D., Chancellor of UMass Medical School.

    The involvement with the LTC Financing

    Advisory Committee is reflective of the

    long-standing, productive partnership

    between Commonwealth Medicine and

    the state.

    This collaboration between the University and our greater society, throug

    which goals and objectives are jointly developed, and expertise and resou

    are shared, ensures that every resident has the opportunity to benefit from

    education provided by the University and the new knowledge created her

    University research is springing from the labs and classrooms of our campto reach people in every corner of the state. Over the past year, University

    research has yielded dozens of start-up companies that require Massachu

    workers to operate. These new companies give way to industry clusters th

    the local economy.

    In addition to its core mission, members of the UMass community contri

    thousands of hours annually to the greater global community as well as o

    local neighborhoods, cities, and towns. These service projects provide ben

    to the community while enriching our society.

    Projects run the gamut, from a reading enrichment program for English-

    second-language school children run by the UMass Lowell basketball team

    UMass Bostons Camp Shriver, a camp that brings together students with

    without intellectual disabilities to engage in athletic activities.

    Service to the Commonwealth is

    the cornerstone of our mission.

    It is what guides and inspires us

    as we educate physicians and

    nurses to care for our neighbors;

    as we develop health policy that

    In Fiscal 2009, the UMass endowment ranked in the top quartile of American colleges

    and universities on a relative performance basis, according to the National Association

    University was seventh among endowments of $100 million to $500 million. At the clos

    Although the endowment investment performance was -15.5 percent for the fiscal ye

    our relative performance was better than the average -18.7 percent among all univers

    endowment portfolios.

    The endowment is essential to advancing the mission of the University. Its ultimatepurpose is to invest in people who drive the success of the University. President Wilso

    University Trustees, and the Chancellors have increased their commitments to financ

    aid, and the endowment is a vital source of these funds. Since 2002, the University ha
