The process started with a report from the Faculty Planning Committee and included input from all stakeholder groups. Utilizing differential tuition, the Graduate Career Services Offices for MBA and MSITM was established and the personnel were hired. Cornerstone 4: Facilities No major renovations or upgrades were made to the facilities. A total of 14 classrooms in the Bryan Building were upgraded with new instructional workstations, VHS/DVD players, and four received replacement data projectors at a total cost of $28,000. Strategic Direction 1: Teaching and Learning Significant progress was made on implementing the assurance of learning standards throughout the curriculum. The learning goals for all programs were reviewed and revised. Assessment plans are being developed and measurement of student learning will occur continuously beginning in Spring ’06. The School maintained and strengthened its commitment to providing exceptional learning experiences for students. More than 500 students completed some form of internship, experiential or service learning activity. In addition, there were 44 students who studied abroad during the year and 87 students were hosted as incoming exchange students. New curriculum offerings include the dual degree program, MS in Gerontology/MBA, and a minor in information technology. Strategic Direction 2: Creation and Application of Knowledge A variety of intellectual contributions were produced by the faculty including 37 peer reviewed journal articles, 5 books, 12 book chapters, and 61 peer-reviewed presentations at professional meetings. In addition, there were 39 non-peer-reviewed presentations and 53 non-peer-reviewed publications. The faculty participated in 28 department-sponsored research seminars. There were several research collaborations between faculty and students that resulted in two publications with students as co-authors and a presentation made for the N.C. General Assembly by an undergraduate. Strategic Direction 3: Campus Community New initiatives accomplished to further the goal of becoming a more diverse and actively engaged community included hiring an Asian-American female as associate professor in information systems and incorporating cross-cultural sensitivity training in the MBA “boot camp” for entering full-time MBA students. The tradition of recognizing and celebrating the successes of students, faculty, staff and alumni was accomplished through the May and December graduation events, Beta Gamma Sigma induction ceremony, the Distinguished Alumni Award Dinner, as well as with department, office and student organization events. Strategic Direction 4: Economy and Quality of Life The impact of faculty, staff and student collaborations with regional businesses, non-profit organizations and other agencies and industry has never been stronger. More than 500 students participated in internships and experiential learning experiences, primarily with Triad-based companies and agencies. Participating in professional development programs were 160 individuals representing 58 organizations. Through internships, consulting, and class-based projects, the Bryan School had a significant interaction with more than 275 businesses and organizations.

Strategic Direction 5: Access and Student Success The MBA marketing plan that was developed three years ago is continuing with some adjustments that include increased visibility at college recruitment fairs, enhanced web presence through chat rooms and message boards, and a refined email communications plan for prospective and admitted students. Approval was received to use tuition differential to establish a position of director of marketing and recruiting for the MBA program. At the undergraduate level, the recruiting initiatives started last year have been refined and continued. Retention is a primary focus both this year and in the coming years especially in regard to freshman to sophomore retention. A special effort was made to collaborate with the Math Department to assist at risk students in college algebra and calculus. A parents association for freshman parents was initiated and enhancements were made in all services provided to students including academic advising, career counseling and study abroad advising. Significant Achievements Many faculty members have made significant achievements in their profession. Five faculty members currently serve as chief editor, or co-editor, of peer-reviewed journals in their field, and another 12 serve on one or more editorial boards for journals in their field. A student team received national recognition by placing first in a marketing competition.

Executive Summary: College of Arts & Sciences Six program reviews were conducted this year: African-American Studies, Broadcasting & Cinema, History, Psychology, Theatre, and Women’s & Gender Studies. Memoranda of Understanding for all six will be signed in 2006. Cornerstone – Public and Private Support The College raised more than $2.6 million in private gifts, including two gifts of $500,000. Faculty were awarded $3.9 million in external grants and contracts and a plan was developed to set 5-year numerical goals for proposal submission for each College department. If achieved, these goals would combine to double the number of proposals submitted annually by College faculty. Cornerstone – Technology Another year with limited one-time funds made it difficult to address the continuing need for major equipment purchases in many College departments, especially in the arts. Using a combination of College and Science Building Equipment funds, the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry made one major equipment purchase, but many significant needs remain throughout the College. Cornerstone – Administration Departments submitted workload policies for approval by the Dean and the College Budget & Planning Committee, the aim of which is to encourage diversification in faculty roles where appropriate and ensure commensurate distribution of rewards. A change to the College Promotion & Tenure Guidelines was made to explicitly recognize the important attached to interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary work. The University Honors Program, which had been housed in the College for many years, was renamed the International Honors College and administrative responsibility transferred to the Provost’s Office. Cornerstone – Facilities As construction of the Studio Arts Center and the Hall for Humanities & Research Administration nears completion, planning for the move continued throughout the year. College programs continue to be limited by lack of space or suitable facilities in many areas. The AD/HD specialty clinic in the Psychology Department was moved to off-campus near Moses Cone Health Center, and we continue to hope that it will be possible to identify a suitable location for the general Psychology Clinic in the near future. Few existing College programs could be moved to the North Millennial Campus, limiting our ability to take advantage of that space. SD 1: Teaching and Leaning Two new Master’s degrees (Biochemistry and Women’s & Gender Studies) were approved and will admit their first students in 2006. A request for Permission to Plan a Ph.D. in Computational Mathematics was submitted to General Administration and planning begun on a Ph.D. in Medicinal Biochemistry. If eventually approved, these programs would bring the total number of Ph.D. degrees in the College to six. The on-line BLS program continued to attract strong enrollments, with almost 150 students in the program, although not all are taking courses full-time. The response to this offering demonstrates the strong appeal of on-line degree programs for adult and returning students. Departments have been very energetic in providing internship and research opportunities for students, providing practical experience in a variety of ways appropriate to their courses of study. The new B.S. in Chemistry & Biochemistry with a concentration in research will allow undergraduate students to earn a degree focused on laboratory experience that will make them even more competitive for graduate programs and technical employment. An NSF grant in the Department of Mathematical Sciences provides research experience for undergraduates, several of whom presented papers at a conference in the fall. SD 2: Creation and Application of Knowledge The College completed 28 tenure-track searches in 2005, including two for department heads. Dr. Anne Wallace was hired as Head of the Department of English and Dr. Charles Bolton as Head of the Department of History; both came to UNCG from the University of Southern Mississippi. Dr. Marc Bregman joined the faculty of the Department of Religious Studies as the first Herman and Zelda Bernard Distinguished Professor of Jewish Studies. An additional 19 tenure-track searches were initiated in the fall semester, 2005, and are expected to conclude in 2006. College faculty approved a revision to the Promotion & Tenure Guidelines that explicitly acknowledges the importance of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary work. The Board of Trustees approved establishment of the Center for Creative Writing in the Arts, with Dr. Mark Smith-Soto (Romance Languages) as Director. Planning began or continued for several other Centers based in the College to encourage and support interdisciplinary research. Each department has been assigned a target for submission of external grant proposals by 2010 that will double proposal submissions from the College. In addition, a policy was adopted that allows some faculty receiving research grants from


50

agencies that do not permit charging academic-year salaries to grant budgets to request such support from the College, making such grants more attractive to faculty, who can now receive release time for funded research projects. SD 3: Campus Community College departments continued to offer a wide range of programs for the campus and the local community, including conferences, lectures by visiting scholars, artistic shows, and theatrical performances. The Harriett Elliot Lectures on the theme of “Are We Energized? Politics, Energy, and the Environment” featured Amory Lovins of the Rocky Mountain Institute as the keynote speaker and drew an audience of 300. The Psychology Department’s annual Kendon Smith Lectures focused on challenges in the analysis of longitudinal data from developmental studies, an important focus of research in many departments at UNCG. SD 4: Economy and Quality of Life The Center for Drug Design established connections with several area pharmaceutical companies and received significant donations of software. Keith Debbage (Department of Geography) was assigned to work part-time with the Greensboro Partnership to continue work on developing a transportation/logistics economic cluster in the Piedmont Triad area. Syngenta Crop Protection Systems continues to fund internships for the Department of Geography, maintaining UNCG’s long-standing relationship with this company. SD 5: Access and Student Success A substantial amount of College salary resources continues to be spent on providing additional seats and sections in introductory courses to serve the growing number of undergraduates, especially freshmen and sophomores. To help these students succeed at UNCG, resources have been provided both to continue Supplemental Instruction (SI) in several introductory courses and to increase tutoring available in mathematics and foreign languages. Several introductory mathematics courses are now taught in a fully or partly on-line format, although the department will reinstate some face-to-face sections next fall to provide students with a choice of format. The College is working with department heads to ensure that we can offer on-line sections of a variety of GEC courses each semester, which will allow students across the university to complete their General Education requirements on-line. The College or Arts and Sciences Advising Center (CASA) continues to provide excellent advising for most College freshmen and all undecided students, in addition to coordinating College participation in recruitment and admissions activities.

Executive Summary: School of Education Research and Creative Activity The School of Education (SOE) ranked 35th in the nation on this year’s U.S. News and World Report list of schools of education; among counseling programs ours ranked 6th. To further enhance the research mission, a search began for the SOE Research Director, who will work with faculty members to identify potential sources for external funding and assist them with proposal development. External funding for research garnered by the SOE and its affiliated units totaled over $16 million. The Wachovia Foundation funded a three-year project, “The UNCG/Wachovia Teacher Mentoring Network,” for $719,000. This project will form in area school systems a network of master teacher mentors who will work with beginning teachers to ensure their success and foster retention. The U.S. Department of Education provided $800,000 in funding for doctoral fellowships in special education, which will help recruit outstanding students to the new doctoral program in special education. To continue to attract high-quality doctoral students the SOE again raised graduate stipends. Planning began for the 2nd SOE Research Symposium to be held in March 2006. This event will feature keynote speakers, poster sessions, and discussion panels focusing on key educational research issues. Teaching and Learning The SOE steered the preparation of all program reports for the national and State re-accreditation visits of UNCG teacher education programs during fall semester 2006. The SOE Director of Assessment worked with program coordinators to ensure that assessment data for students will be available. In 2004 target enrollments were established with the UNC President’s office. The first year’s data showed that UNCG far exceeded its target for traditional students but fell short in alternative licensure. The SOE developed a plan to raise the number of students in alternative licensure programs. Master’s and doctoral student cohort programs were established in Alamance County, Guilford County, Asheboro, and Thomasville. Professional Development Schools (PDS) continued in Guilford, Rockingham, and Chatham counties. Elementary and middle grades students spend over 1,000 hours in schools by the time they graduate, a number unmatched by other institutions. Planning began to develop a PDS secondary school. With an endowment from the Michel Family Foundation, the Teaching Resources Center (TRC) expanded its collection of books, materials, and technology, to enhance the professional preparation of UNCG teacher education students. The TRC also provides students with access to Praxis preparation software; the SOE also funds site licenses at Guilford Technical Community College and Rockingham Community College. Recruitment, Retention, and Professional Development The SOE Director of Recruitment, Retention, and Professional Development traveled to all Piedmont Triad area school systems to meet with superintendents and human resources directors, and conducted recruiting events in high schools. Two major recruitment events were held at UNCG: a talk by master teacher Hazel Haley and a Teaching Career day on campus attended by over 100 high school students.

The Exploring Teaching as a Profession (ETAP) program—designed to recruit into teaching UNCG students with undeclared majors—began its fourth year. The program now is part of the Grogan Learning Community. The SOE academic advisor for transfer and community college students met with advisors and students on community college campuses to ensure that 2 + 2 arrangements lead to a smooth transition to teacher education at UNCG.

The Guilford Education Partnership was formed between UNCG and Guilford County Schools. Its purpose is to foster collaboration in recruitment, preparation, and retention of educators. A master’s program for middle grades science teachers began, and in 2006 programs will begin in mathematics education and social studies.

The SOE participated in the Institute for the Recruitment of Teachers (Andover, MA), to recruit capable minority students for graduate study. The Dean and department chairs participated in graduate recruitment fairs held on campus. The SOE sponsored several summer professional development workshops, including the Yopp Professional Development Institute (with a focus on beginning teachers). The SOE Dean served on the North Carolina State Board of Education Teacher Retention Task Force.

Development and Alumni Relations Through December 2005 the SOE raised $3.25 million toward its goal of $6.5 million (50%) in the UNCG Students First Capital Campaign. The major gift was a distinguished professorship from James and Jo Yopp for mathematics and science education. The SOE held an alumni reception and awards ceremony in Greensboro on commencement weekend. This year’s recipients of alumni awards were: Early Career – Alicia Tate (Director of Special Education Services in Scotland County); Outstanding Achievement – James Merrill (Superintendent of Alamance-Burlington Schools); Distinguished Career – John Schmidt (Distinguished Professor at East Carolina University), Richard Thompson (UNC Vice President for University-School Programs). The SOE Advisory Board began its fifth year. The 28 members represent a broad constituency of educators and community leaders who either are UNCG alumni or have a close connection to UNCG, and many serve on the SOE Campaign Committee. The Board met twice during 2005 (one meeting was at Asheboro High School); members learned about SOE activities and advised the Dean on educational issues. Community and Outreach The Teaching Fellows program passed its State evaluation with all excellent or satisfactory ratings and no areas for improvement. The SOE teacher education PDS cohorts and the Principal Fellows Program help students feel part of a student community. The SOE Marshals (University Marshals who are SOE majors) assist at various events. Education students also are members of the Curry Education Society and the Kappa Delta Pi honorary. The SOE Dean visited all 15 Piedmont Triad school districts, met with the superintendents in their offices, and accompanied the superintendents on a tour of one or more of their schools. The Dean also hosted luncheons for superintendents, human resources directors, and directors of teacher education. Our affiliated units continued to provide needed services to schools and educational programs: The Collegium for the Advancement of Schools, Schooling, and Education; the Piedmont Triad Education Consortium; the Center for Educational Studies and Development; and SERVE.

Executive Summary: School of Health & Human Performance Public and Private Support. The School’s figures for the first phase of the Students First Campaign (July 1, 2004 – December 31, 2005) were $4,733,968 and 160% to Goal. Several new funds were established in 2005, including the Loretta M. Williams Undergraduate CWHW Research Fund, Theodore & Loretta M. Williams Fund for Arts Health, Marge Leonard Scholarship, School of HHP Undergraduate Research Award Fund, Dean’s Student Advisory Council Scholarship, and the Sue Stinson Award in Dance. New planned giving funds included the Safrit Measurement in Research Fund, Jo Anne Thorpe Scholar-Service Award, Mary Jean Pyatt Merit Scholarship in Dance, Araminta Little Distinguished Professorship in the School of HHP, Martha Anne Jesnak Scholarship, and the Marjory W. Johnson Pre-Physical Therapy Research Program Fund. Technology The major foci this academic year were an increased emphasis on enhancing teaching and learning in HHP and introduction of and support for several new software applications. Significant activities included expansion of support for new faculty, adjunct faculty, and Tas, and development and support for two options for administering student course evaluations online. HHP now has a listserv for adjuncts and teaching assistants (Tas) which is updated each semester. All instructional technology updates are sent both to the faculty and adjunct/TA listservs. Seventeen HHP faculty members attended the Lilly South conference. Of those, eleven presented nine conference sessions. Three faculty members also attended the UNC System Teaching and Learning with Technology (TLT) conference, and two presented. And, approximately 30 faculty and Gas attended each of the semester HHP Instructional Technology Cracker Barrel sessions, where faculty and Gas demonstrate their use of instructional technology in support of teaching and learning. Administration The formal merger of the Hospitality Management Program with the Department of Recreation, Parks, and Tourism (RPT) was completed. This resulted in a change in the name of RPT to the Department of Recreation, Tourism, and Hospitality Management (RTH). The School continues to address the federal mandate to become HIPAA compliant. The Speech and Hearing Center, which is the clinical training site for undergraduate and graduate student clinical work, became HIPAA compliant this year. Facilities A plan was developed, in conjunction with Intercollegiate Athletics, to move the existing weight training facility (room 123) to the batting cage space, and to transform the current weight training space into a complex to house the Center for Women’s Health and Wellness and the HHP Office of Research. This will generate additional faculty offices, and enable the current CWHW space to become the HHP Office of Development. The transformation of the batting cage space was completed, and construction is scheduled to begin on room 123 in February, 2006. One program, the fibromyalgia activity intervention program, was moved to the Millennial Campus in the spring semester, 2005. Several laboratory instruments were purchased to support current faculty and to provide start up packages for new faculty. The administrative staff area, academic offices, seminar room, and clinic reception area in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders was remodeled to become compliant with HIPAA. Strategic Direction: Teaching and Learning The Teaching Excellence Network was established, which consists of a core group of HHP faculty members from each department who seek to identify examples of teaching excellence within HHP and serve as teaching mentors/consultants. Additionally, a New Faculty Orientation Seminar Series was developed and provided important information on six topics – teaching, research, promotion and tenure, the history of the School, communicating across the curriculum, and instructional technology. The Measuring Student Achievement in General Education Goals initiative was also completed for the office of the Associate Provost for Undergraduate Education. Approval was granted for the establishment of a Doctor of Public Health degree in Community Health, and the first cohort of DrPH students will be admitted fall 2006. The UNC Office of the President also approved a request to plan a Doctor of Philosophy degree in CSD. The Department of PHE underwent an accreditation review with the Council on Education for Public Health and received the maximum 7-year period of reaccreditation, and the Fitness Leadership concentration in the Department of ESS was certified by the American College of Sports Medicine. Two of HHP’s programs were nationally ranked by U.S. News and World Reports 2005 Rankings of Best Graduate Schools in the Health Disciplines Category (CSD Speech Language Pathology 50th; PHE Community Health 12th in the nation tied with the University of Maryland and University of Southern California), and our doctoral program in ESS was ranked 24th in the nation by the American Academy of Kinesiology and Physical Education (tied with Purdue University).

Strategic Direction: Creation and Application of Knowledge The HHP faculty authored or coauthored 8 books, 74 refereed journal articles, 51 book chapters or monographs, and made 215 professional presentations at scholarly meetings. The Department of Dance presented 56 public performances, including 6 commissioned dance works. HHP submitted 44 proposals requesting $11,384,176 to a variety of local, state, federal, public, and private funding sources, and received 24 awards totaling $1,908,979. Six HHP faculty members participated in a February campus proposal-writing workshop conducted by GrantWriters consultants. The Center for Women’s Health and Wellness (CWHW) focused its research activities around four strategic areas that build on faculty and community interests: Improving the health and quality of life of women with breast cancer; Understanding the physiological, psychological, and social foundations of women’s health and wellness; Improving health systems and community response to women who are sick and who are well; and Promoting safe, healthy and meaningful lives at home, at work, and in the community. A CWHW study to learn more about the factors that influence the health, wellness and quality of life of women as they age, Understanding the Pathways to Women’s Health and Wellness in Later Life: A Cohort Study of Woman’s College Alumnae, will survey half of the nearly 10,000 WC alumnae. Strategic Direction: Campus Community The HHP Outstanding Staff Award was established to recognize and reward members of the staff in HHP who provide outstanding leadership and service to the school beyond the scope of normal responsibilities of a staff member. Ann Venable from the Department of RTH was the inaugural recipient of this award. The Dean’s Outstanding Student Award was established to recognize and reward two outstanding graduating students (1 undergraduate; 1 graduate) in the School of HHP, who provide outstanding leadership and service to the school, university, community, and their professional organizations. The inaugural recipients were Anomis Davis (CSD) and Robert “Bobby” Maxwell (CSD). Two HHP faculty members received the University’s most prestigious teaching and research awards. Karen “Pea” Poole received the Alumni Teaching Excellence Award for an untenured faculty member, and Sandra Shultz received the Research Excellence Award for a junior faculty member. Cindra Kamphoff received the Graduate Teaching Assistant Award. The School also awarded Emerita Professor Mariana Newton with the School of HHP Distinguished Service Award at the May 13 HHP Graduation Ceremony. Also recognized at the same ceremony were assistant professors Robert Aronson with the Teaching Excellence Award and Sandra Shultz with the Gail M. Hennis Teaching Excellence Award for Graduate Faculty. Strategic Direction: Economy and Quality of Life Through a variety of collaborations and outreach programs, the School of HHP continues to improve the quality of life of the Piedmont Triad’s citizens. For example, the Speech and Hearing Center conducted 319 on campus evaluations and 368 screenings, 43 evaluations, and 831 treatments in off campus settings. ESS faculty conducted health fairs, fibromyalgia physical activity interventions, sport psychology consultations, diabetic screenings, and a home-schooled physical education/aquatics program, and Project Effort served 51 youth from the community. RTH’s Partnership F.I.V.E. (Fostering Inclusive Volunteer Efforts) staff disseminated information, including two new videos, on inclusive volunteering at national and statewide recreation and parks conferences, regional recreation and park agencies, UNCG classes, local schools, group homes, and nonprofit and advocacy agencies. PHE engaged in research and development activities with Tanglewood Research, a for profit prevention research organization. The Department of Dance continued its involvement with Artslink, and the Dance Department Head was elected by campus arts leaders to serve as chair of the Artslink steering committee in 2005-06, and in this role organized the Graduate Research in the Arts Conference (GREAT). Strategic Direction: Access and Student Success The School of HHP Scholarship Program awarded over $72,000 to 34 undergraduate and graduate students during the 2004-05 academic year.

Executive Summary: School of Human Environmental Sciences The School received a total of $352,816 in private, corporate and foundation gifts this year. Furniture donated by Brayton Industries of High Point, N.C was used in the newly renovated 1929 wing of Stone building and will be utilized in the Studio Arts Center, due for completion late summer 2006. The Human Environmental Sciences Foundation Board continues to be a very viable support to the School. All departments within the School have advisory boards that provide advice and counsel to the programs, and contribute to fund raising activities, mentoring of students and the development of student internship sites. The School continues to be a leader at the university in the funding of student scholarships with $146,795 worth of scholarships awarded this year. The School added a Behavioral Research Facility in the newly renovated 1929 wing of Stone building. The facility houses a marketing and survey lab research room that contains equipment for telephone surveys, scanner and software to develop and tally surveys. The facility also houses observation rooms with the capacity to video/audio tape activities. The 1929 wing is equipped with a wireless environment and multimedia units in every classroom and conference room. In addition, the wing houses classrooms, an apparel design lab, the university telelearning facilities, faculty offices, and the Human Development and Family Studies Department and the Social Work Department main offices. Additional major construction for the School includes the Studio Arts Center, scheduled for completion in July 2006, which will house the Interior Architecture Department. Over $ 212,103 was spent by the School and Departments on renovation and repair of facilities. Facility safety and efficient use of space are ongoing priorities within the School. Renovation to existing facilities include converting 128 Stone into a computer design lab for design students; 244 Stone into a multipurpose classroom; 346 Stone into a graduate teaching assistants’ satellite workroom; conversion of room 317 into an office for part-time Lecturers; and renovation of rooms 305/325 to increase efficiency of laboratory research space.

Executive Summary: School of Music This summary and annual report cover the period January through December 2005. The School of Music had another extremely productive year, both by students and faculty. Details can be found earlier in this report, but students and faculty continue to garner recognition and honors for the work that they do. Probably the two most important items here are: 1) the fact that 4 of our faculty hold positions as President or President-elect of their respective professional associations; and 2) BOTH of the universities candidates for the prestigious National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Stipend award were from the School of Music! The presidencies are as follows: John Locke, American Bandmasters Association; Paul Stewart, Music Teachers National Association; Dennis AsKew, International Tuba and Euphonium Association; and Steven Stusek, North American Saxophone Alliance. The two faculty selected as NEH applicants were Gavin Douglas (ethnomusicology) and Pierpaolo Polzonetti (historical musicology), both members of the Composition, History, and Theory Division. The School’s enrollments remained steady at around 600 majors (400 undergraduates and 200 graduate students), although the number of new first-year students was higher than before, due to an exceptionally successful recruitment year. We have spent a good part of the year discussing as a faculty the enrollment targets that are appropriate for the School, given the restrictions imposed by the number of studio teachers and the number of students required to fully staff our large ensembles. These targets have been identified, and we are now in the process of working to manage the enrollments of the School by utilizing more effectively what we refer to as a “wait list” method rather than a “rolling admission” method. This simply means that in certain studios or areas, where the applications for admissions are inordinately high (saxophone, voice, viola, etc.) we will render admission decisions right away for the very top and bottom students. For those in the middle, the admission decisions will be delayed until all applicants have auditioned (March 18 is the final audition date). This will help us to choose the very best students for enrollment in the School. Because of the above increase in first-year students, the SCH generation of the School was higher for Fall Semester 2005. Given previous Delaware data (these are normally at least a year or more behind), the School of Music was finally able to meet at least the mean Delaware figures for faculty productivity. We remain convinced, however, that the Delaware data may not be the most accurate comparison. Moreover, the structure of the General Education Curriculum on campus is such that students have a plethora of courses from which to choose to meet the various requirements of GEC. With fewer options available, students would be more likely to choose music courses as GEC requirements, thus increasing the demand for such courses. As it now stands, we believe that the demand on campus is largely being met. (In comparison, one of our colleague institutions, whose students must take a course in either music, visual arts, or theatre, reports that they offer 20 sections of music appreciation to meet the demand! That will never occur at UNCG, regardless of how good the courses are, until the students have fewer choices of courses.) The School of Music conducted four searches during Spring Semester 2005: Associate Director of Bands (new line); String Music Education (replacing Valerie Trollinger who was not reappointed); Music Theory (replacing Frank McCarty who retired); and Vocal Coach/Accompanist (new line). Three of these searches were completed. Dr. Kevin Geraldi was hired as the first Associate Director of Bands to work with Dr. John Locke in our instrumental program. Dr. Irna Priore was hired in the Music Theory position. Dr. James Douglass was hired as coach/accompanist. The search for the String Music Education position was nsuccessful. The highlight of the year has most certainly been the hundreds of hours of work that have been spent preparing a bid to acquire the Bernie Krause Natural Sound Archive. The Music Research Insitute in conjunction with Jerry McGuire, Director of Technology Transfer, and John Merrill, Director of the Greensboro Center for Innovative Development and the joint UNCG/NCAT Millenial Campus, has been working feverishly to put together a plan for the acquisition of the archive. Once acquired, the archive will have a three-pronged emphasis: research, education and community outreach, and commercial. The commercial component will be housed at the Millenial Campus and will consist of a corporation to whom the archive is licensed. As of December 2005 the School had received a commitment from the Chancellor to conduct a due diligence study on the acquisition, and that is nearly completed. It is anticipated that investors will be identified and approached in March or April 2006 with the archive under full operation on campus by Fall 2006. The Music Research Institute also continues to play a lead role in at least three other areas within the School: a) noise-induced hearing loss; b) music medicine research program; and c) the Sounds of Learning research initiative. In conjunction with the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, the Mri continues research into the issues of noise-induced hearing loss and its prevention. Several projects have been conducted within the School and outside, and the School is preparing to take the necessary steps to ensure that such hearing loss is minimized within its walls.

The music medicine research program has been in the planning stages for the entire year and beyond. In March 2005 Drs. Michael That and Ralph Spintge were invited to deliver a presentation to the Greensboro Medical Society. From this presentation there developed an acute interest in the work of these two individuals in the area of rehabilitation of stroke and Parkinsonian patients (Thaut) and pain management (Spintge). Negotiations are currently under way to bring these two individuals to campus as targeted hires, UNCG funding Thaut and, it is hoped, Moses Cone Health Systems funding Spintge (an anesthesiologist). The initiation of such a program would not only provide significant opportunity for research funding, but would improve the lives of those in the community through enhanced rehabilition options and shortened hospital stays and recovery times for surgical and chronic pain patients. The Sounds of Learning project, funded by the International Foundation for Music Research and the Grammy Foundation, has gone through two rounds of grant awards to researchers who are investigating the effects of the presence of music programs on the total fabric of K-12 schools. The leading music education researchers in the United States are involved in this project from a consulting and oversight basis, including, Dr. Edward Asmus, Dr. Clifford Madsen, Dr. Bennett Reimer, Dr. Peter Webster, and many others. Having this project centered at UNCG has brought significant attention to the School of Music and the Mri. Two other events during the year also brought significant recognition to the School. The first was hosting the conference of the Society for Music Teacher Education on Campus in Fall 2005, attracting leaders in the music education field from all over the nation. Also held in Fall 2005 was the annual conference of the Society of Composers, Inc. Particularly impressive to all in attendance was the organization of the event by Dr. Mark Engebretson and the wealth and depth of musical talent that abounds at the School of Music. It was most impressive that the Wind Ensemble, the Symphony Orchestra, and the University Choirs all presented major concerts of works by these visiting composers, further impressing the attendees that the entire School could work together toward such an event. Again in 2005, the School of Music was exceptionally successful in fundraising toward the Students First Campaign. The details of these endeavors are found earlier in the report, but it should be recognized that the School of Music met its campaign goal within approximately 18 months of the inception of the silent phase. To date, the School has exceeded its goal of $3.3 million and is well on its way to reaching a new, additional goal of $1.2 million. This is again due to the exceptional work of Ms. Nancy Shane, development officer for the School of Music, whose tireless efforts have resulted in the acquisition of significant gifts to the School. Finally, the School of Music initiated or continued several projects in regard to governance and administration of the School. In response to an ad hoc committee reviewing the graduate program of the School, the faculty approved in Fall 2005 a revised DMA degree program, which gives additional flexibility to match the abilities and needs of incoming doctoral students in performance. Also, at the request of the Provost, the faculty spent Fall 2005 pondering the option of converting to a departmentalized governance structure. An ad hoc committee was established to draft a governance document based upon departments rather than divisions, and this was recently delivered to the faculty (March 2006) for their consideration. Finally, discussions surrounding a revised workload policy for music faculty continued throughout the entire year. A new policy, aligned closely with that of the entire University, will be put in place effective Fall 2006. In contrast to the current teaching load policy in the School of Music, the new workload policy will reflect all three areas of faculty responsibility for each faculty member and allow for flexibility of ratio of assignment by individual faculty members on the basis of abilities and opportunities.

Executive Summary: Office of Research & Public/Private Sector Partnerships The Office of Research and Public / Private Sector Partnerships has a threefold mission: research, economic development, and federal relations. Significant accomplishments have occurred in each of these efforts from January through December 2005. Within the research mission there are two major objectives: providing support for the infrastructure surrounding the research enterprise and visualizing new objectives / initiatives for UNCG’s research efforts. Support for the research infrastructure comes from the Office of Research Compliance (ORC), the Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP), the Office of Technology Transfer (OTT), and the Associate Provost for Research. The ORC completed its second year of operation in August of 2005. The ORC encourages a campus culture of compliance through excellent customer service. It has numerous professional training opportunities for faculty, staff, and students. A partial listing of initiatives implemented this year includes the following items. The training schedule for all committees with research-compliance related activities was revised. The training materials for IRB and IACUC were revised and distributed. Training for new committee members was updated. IRB training seminars were conducted. A follow up to last year’s internal audit using the Office for Human Research Protection (OHRP) Quality Assessment tool was conducted and a second phase of internal auditing was initiated. The ORC website was updated. The Director of ORC interacted with UNCG faculty, staff, and students to increase awareness of the ORC operation and university compliance research efforts. The training manual for graduate students working in ORC was revised. On-line education related to UNCG’s drug-free workplace policy was rewritten. OSP manages pre-award and non-fiscal post-award functions related to research. Over 316 proposals valued at almost $100 million were submitted in the 2004-05 academic year and 220 grants valued at almost $28 million were funded. Oversight of programs for professional development of faculty and staff in regards to ability to locate sources of external funding and ability to prepare competitive proposals was moved from the Associate Provost for Research to OSP. Over 31 meetings ranging in topics from a general overview of grantsmanship for graduate students to specific grantsmanship components (such as locating sponsors or post award management) for university research faculty and staff were held. Training to use COS was implemented and OSP coordinated approximately 834 COS Expertise records, representing university research faculty (673), graduate students (30), and staff (131). Training sessions related to understanding and implementing the rapidly changing electronic proposals submission process were conducted. OTT celebrated it third anniversary in 2005.This office has continued an aggressive outreach program to the faculty and graduate students. Towards this end, the Director gave numerous seminars to small groups, visited with faculty on an individual basis, and interacted with groups of faculty. A new Patent Policy was approved by Office of the President on 9/16/05. Two additional graduate assistant/licensing positions were filled. A Professional Licensing Associate Position was implemented. All outstanding issues with “Reading Together” were completed and license agreement with Learning Together Inc was established. Activities in economic development for the TRIAD were continued. The Director participated in the Technology Outreach at Nussbaum (TON). The APR’s office assumed the responsibility of managing the intramural grants program. Almost $400,000 of intramural support was awarded. Eighty faculty from departments across the campus were awarded almost $27,000 from the Scholars’ Travel Fund. Almost $80,000 was awarded through the New Faculty Research Grants Program and an additional $109,100 through the Regular Faculty Research Grants Program. An additional $92,000 was awarded through the Summer Excellence Research Award Program. The Undergraduate Research Assistantship Program gave 88 research assistantship awards in a variety of disciplines totaling approximately $88,000. The newly formed travel assistance program for undergraduates to share their research at regional and national meetings gave $648 in awards to four students. ORPPSP held over 300 meetings with groups of and individual faculty. The APR assumed the responsibility of managing the establishment, planning, and review of centers and institutes. Two centers were granted permission to establish, bringing the total number of centers to 21. Critical players in the research at UNCG are the center in ORPPSP: the Center for Youth, Family and Community Partnerships (CYFCP) and the Institute for Health, Science and Society (IHSS). The Center made two strategic hires which brought depth to its early childhood readiness initiative and program evaluation capacities. They relocated to a more prominent downtown location, combining all projects under one roof. They continued to expand their strategic partnerships, deepening expertise in translating research into practice. They received national and state recognition for work in juvenile justice, being funded for numerous projects. Finally, the Center was funded for several initiatives on child mental health and positive youth development including training and technical assistance across the state on best practices in mental health and substance abuse; model intervention programs and workforce development to support the social emotional development and academic readiness of young children; and outcome evaluation to build the capacity of


63

other organizations in supporting the health of children, families, and communities. CYFCP submitted proposals totaling $8,381,350 and received awards of $1,316,960. The major focus of IHSS in 2005 was the initiation of the Guilford Genomic Medicine Initiative, a collaboration among UNCG, the Moses Cone Health System, and the Center for Human Genetics at Duke University. The central goal of this initiative, funded through the Department of Defense, is to develop a comprehensive model for the translation of genetic discoveries into everyday medical care. In addition, IHSS secured funding to purchase equipment for a clinical genotyping core laboratory and collaborated with the Greensboro Chamber of Commerce to obtain funding from the North Carolina Biotechnology Center to offer a Biotechnology Academy for local business, community, and political leaders. The Institute also has ongoing, federally funded research programs in biotechnology that have produced intellectual property that is intended to deal with society’s concerns about environmental quality. IHSS submitted five proposals totaling $2,770,423 and received awards of $2,203,498 Dr. Jerry Meisner, a professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, and his co-investigator, Dr. Harol Hoffman, continued activities associated with the second and third years of their NSF/ITR grant; the fourth year plus a six month extension of their NSF/TE grant; and the extended year of their DED FIPSE grant. Two new research scientists were hired in 2005:a cellular biologist whose work focuses on the role of nutrients on AIDS at the molecular level and an expert in counter terrorism issues. He is participating in an initiative to implement a disaster management certificate and is trying to establish a research program on counter terrorism. Economic development is a key component among those of the ORPPSP. Much of these efforts, although not all, have been through the activities of the Director of OTT and the Associate Provost for Research. The Director of OTT is on the board or task force for five and the APR nine community groups. At the state and national level the APR is on the board or council member of five groups. Federal relations are also an important component of activities associated with the ORPPSP. In spring of 2005 six federal earmark requests were submitted and two were funded.

Executive Summary: The Graduate School The number of graduate students at UNCG continues to grow. Nearly ¼ (23.4%) of the students during Fall Semester, 2005 were graduate students. The nearly 3800 graduate students who took classes during that term included more than 500 who were exclusively taking classes through distance education. The graduate student population also included 306 international students taking graduate work, a 5.9% increase over Fall Semester, 2004. Graduate enrollment at UNCG has increased about 20% since 2000. The range of graduate programs at UNCG also continues to expand. During Fall Semester, 2005 we enrolled our first 12 doctoral students in the Ph.D. program in Nursing. During 2005 we also received permission to establish the M.A. in Women’s and Gender Studies, the M.S. in Biochemistry, and a dual degree M.S. in Gerontology/MBA program. Work has been progressing to recruit the initial class of doctoral students for the new Dr. PH program in Community Health. Planning underway for possible doctoral programs in Communication Sciences and Disorders, Computational Mathematics, Biology, Medicinal Biochemistry, Dance, and, Institutional Research. Planning has also progressed for a new joint M.S. in Family Life and Parenting Education with North Carolina State University. In recent years the biggest growth area nationally in graduate education has been graduate certificate programs. More people now receive post-baccalaureate and post-master’s certificates annually than receive doctorates. UNCG now offers 32 graduate certificates, 14 of them established since 2002. The implementation of the electronic thesis and dissertation project has gone very well. A pilot during Spring Semester, 2005 and the summer resulted in the completion of 40 electronic theses or dissertations. The completion of an electron thesis or dissertation was an option for all graduate students during Fall Semester, 2005 and will be required beginning with Fall Semester, 2006. Eleven Graduate Student workshops offered in conjunction with the Office of Research and Public/Private Sector Partnerships were:

• Research Using Human Subjects: What You Need to Know (2 workshops—spring 2005 and fall 2005) • Making Your Innovation a Reality • Writing for Publication in the Sciences • Writing for Publication in the Humanities, Education, and Social Sciences • Everything I needed to Know About Publishing I Learned in Art and Music Classes • Writing to Seek Funding: Fellowships and Grants • Filing Your Thesis or Dissertation Electronically • How to Find Funding Sources • Writing for On-Line Publications • Writing for Professional Journals: What Editors Like to See

Executive Summary: University Libraries/Jackson Library Cornerstone 1: Public and Private Support The Library Campaign Committee has been busy seeking funds for the initiatives that were re-defined this year. In addition to our key areas of collections, preservation, special collections/archives, programming and the Women Veterans Historical Project, we have incorporated learning environment as a new initiative. This will assist us with some of the beautification efforts we have been involved in to make the Libraries a more attractive place for our students and faculty to come for service, study and research. This year we received some significant collections from donors and were given significant funds to renovate our Hodges Special Collections/University Archives Reading Room. Cornerstone 2: Technology Most significant was the installation of a new integrated library system to allow for an improved online catalog in terms of accessibility and flexibility for user needs. We also introduced a chat service via Instant Messaging to revolutionize the way our students utilize reference and instruction services. We worked with the Art Department to install a new server that allows for the digital display of art images in the classroom and also makes the images much more accessible to students remotely. We are continuing to work with the Institutional Repository Task Force to investigate strategies of gathering faculty scholarly output and collecting research data in ways that can automatically be harvested into a university-wide repository. Finally, we continue to lead the Carolina Consortium effort which, in 2005, has grown from participation of 38 to 61 schools with a joint purchasing power that has saved the group approximately eighty million dollars. We also developed the Digital Library of Slavery, advisee scheduling system and led campus efforts to make all UNCG web pages ADA-compliant. Cornerstone 3: Administration The Libraries were involved in career banding this year which resulted in new position definitions for the members of our Electronic Resources and Information Technology Department. We also established a mentoring program for our non-tenured library faculty. This program provides for pairing between a tenured and non-tenured library faculty member throughout the year, with lunch n’ learn opportunities scheduled on a quarterly basis. We changed the name of our Binding Services unit to Preservation Services, to reflect the importance of preservation activities for our collections. A focus on digital preservation is also becoming a key issue and the recruitment of a new Digital Projects Coordinator emphasizes our focus on digital collections and preservation. Cornerstone 4: Facilities Most importantly, the EUC/Library Connector provides for a new entranceway into Jackson Library and allows us to re-define our current services and space. We utilized the opportunities afforded by the Connector to combine service desks on the first floor of Jackson Library to provide for greater ease of use of our services and for even more efficiencies by our students and faculty. The first floor of Jackson Library is now wireless, and joins the Music Library with its wireless capabilities. The first floor of Jackson Library is also in the process of being carpeted and new furniture is being acquired to make the library a more attractive place to study and do research. Strategic Direction 1: Teaching and Learning The Libraries’ teaching and learning contributions are in the growth and strength of our collections, the quality of our instructional literacy classes and in our technological capabilities. The Libraries continue to add to our strong collection of materials. We added over 18,000 print tiles and 1,900 electronic serials and over 5,600 electronic books this year. This year we have also provided records in our catalog that provide for the streaming of audio and musical recordings. Reference and Instructional Services and the Music Library continue to provide library instruction sessions and in 2005 they provided 335 sessions reaching over 6,600 students. Strategic Direction 2: Creation and Application of Knowledge The University Libraries are in the knowledge business. We make knowledge available by cataloging and providing access to our rich resources. This past year, Hodges Special Collections/University Archives has been very busy with the Women Veterans Historical Project, adding thirteen new interviews and the creation of the Civil Rights Oral History


67

Digital Library. We have added new resources from the Teaching Resources Center and the Multicultural Resource Center. We have also added many new databases, web sites and e-journals to our collection of resources. Strategic Direction 3: Campus Community Through the Friends of the Library and other collaborative venues, the Libraries have organized, conducted and collaborated on a number of significant programs in 2005. Exhibits were held and receptions were mounted for Keith Cushman, Mark Schumacher, Jan Hensley, Paul Hessling, and the Lelia Tuttle collection. Clyde Edgerton was the speaker at our Friends of the Library Annual Dinner. The Libraries also held a reception for new faculty members in the fall. The reception created an opportunity to welcome new faculty to the university community and to introduce library services and resources to them. This year we co-sponsored programs and readings with the American Democracy Project, Political Science Department, Romance Languages Department, International Poetry Review, a member of the English Department and the MFA Writing Program. Strategic Direction 4: Economy and Quality of Life Journal Finder, our product that links the different formats of journals together in a single search, is one of the best examples of community-wide partnerships. In addition to other university libraries in the Triad, four community colleges participate with us- Guilford Tech, Durham Tech, Central Piedmont and Wilkes Community College. Our membership in and activity with NC LIVE serves all of the public, community college, UNC system and private educational institution libraries in the Triad and state-wide. Our Hodges Special Collections/University Archives is very active in community support, due to the rich nature of their collections. In 2005, they provided information and materials to such partners as the Yeshiva University Museum and the News & Record. Strategic Direction 5: Access and Student Services The Libraries have been active participants during SOAR. This year, to try to reach our students better, we advertised library services in Facebook. We meet with student representatives to gauge their needs and respond as best we can. We developed quiet floors and group study floors in response to their requests. We were also open during longer hours during study periods and offered free coffee and coffee mugs as a perk. We are also co-sponsoring the LIS/Library Speaker Series as an effort to bring LIS students and faculty and our own library faculty and staffs together to hear speakers of national acclaim discuss issues affecting our libraries and information studies programs.

Executive Summary: Division of Continual Learning The Division of Continual had an exceptionally successful year in 2005 in terms of enrollments, online course development, and community workshops. Specifically, DCL:

Increased total enrollments (credit + non-credit) in DCL programs to 28,734, an increase of more than 3% over the previous year

Generated 3,990 distance learning fundable SCHs through MALS, Wintersession, and 15,363 summer stand-alone courses; this was 26% of UNCG’s distance learning credits

Generated another 3,138 SCHs in the Fast Forward program (now UNCG iSchool) Enrolled 12,329 North Carolinians in outreach workshops and activities Won a total of 11 national and regional awards in programming and marketing Developed 29 highly interactive and educationally effective online courses Generated 9,145 enrollments in Summer Session courses.

Credit Courses A major accomplishment for DCL for 2005 was the completion of all of the online courses for the new Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies (BLS), which is a partnership with the Arts & Sciences. The program greatly exceeded enrollment goals by enrolling 142 majors. Another major accomplishment in 2005 was launching the online version of the Master of Arts in Liberal Studies (MALS). Combining both online and face-to-face instruction, MALS generated 1,500 credit hours this year. The program now has 154 majors. As evidence of the program’s quality, MALS was given the 2005 award for the most outstanding distance learning program by a four-year college or university from the North Carolina Distance Learning Association and a similar award from the University Continuing Education Association (UCEA) Southeast region. Another credit program housed in DCL is Fast Forward, which offers advanced high school students the opportunity to earn college credit. To reflect its transition to an online program, Fast Forward changed its name to iSchool in 2005. The program had 1,750 enrollments, served 5 private schools and 15 public schools in 9 counties, and offered 101 total sections of 15 UNCG courses. The third credit program housed in DCL is Wintersession, which is an accelerated session during the break between fall and spring semesters. The 12 online courses offered during Wintersession this year allowed 331 students to expedite their progress toward a degree. DCL also runs Summer Session for the entire campus, and in 2005 over 591 Summer Session courses were offered with 9,145 enrollments.

Community and Economic Development In terms of community outreach, DCL enrolled a total 12,329 learners from the community. The main community development program is CALL (Community Advancement through Lifelong Learning), which provides instruction and personal enrichment to the community at large. The CALL program promotes lifelong learning in the community by moving the classroom experience beyond the traditional setting and timeframe, thereby furthering UNCG’s role as a “community university.” Through CALL, the University offered 200 workshops to 2,046 citizens.

DCL’s Emeritus Society provides stimulating non-credit but highly academic learning opportunities for retirees and other adult learners. In 2005, Emeritus Society registrations were 825. Another non-credit program is the All-Arts and Sciences Camp, which is a series of one-week, residential academic summer camps for youngsters from 7–15 years old. Now in its fifteenth year, the camp focuses on innovative arts programming and hands-on science instruction and includes a recreation program and a citizenship component. In summer 2005 the camp served almost 2,000 campers over six weeks on five university campuses in North Carolina and Virginia. With funding from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund, full scholarships were provided to 36 Latino and minority students this year. In terms of economic development, DCL launched a computer certification program to enhance the workplace skills of Triad employees. This program directly benefits the economy of the Triad by providing training in various information technology tracks.


69

In addition, DCL continued its Command Spanish®) program, which provides elementary occupation-specific Spanish training for non-Spanish speakers who interact with the Latino community in the workplace. DCL delivered 25 contract programs to businesses in the Triad, reaching 403 employees, a 25 percent increase over last year. Furthermore, a number of the courses in CALL are workforce development workshops, such as public speaking, computer classes, Web design, paralegal certificate, and medical certificates.

Campus Services DCL provides two very important services to the University: marketing and online course development. In 2005, DCL launched an Internet marketing campaign that generated worldwide inquiries and resulted in enrollments in three degree programs. In addition, the division distributed over a million copies of brochures and newspaper inserts. The highly creative marketing campaigns designed by and paid for by DCL significantly enhance the visibility of UNCG throughout the Triad and the state. In recognition of these efforts, DCL was presented with 8 national Marketing Awards of Excellence at the annual meeting of the UCEA and a silver award from the United States Distance Learning Association. Finally, DCL has established itself as a premiere source of expertise in online course development on campus. As the University seeks to provide e-learning opportunities for students who cannot come to campus, faculty across campus have turned to DCL for assistance, and in response DCL has developed teams of Web experts to ease professors’ workload in implementing these courses. The courses resulting from such team efforts accommodate different learning styles and are highly interactive, academically challenging, and graphically appealing.

Executive Summary: International Programs Center Cornerstone1: Public and Private Support The major source of support for UNCG’s students going on study abroad comes from the travel grants program of the UNCG Endowments for International Programs. During 2005, 165 students received travel grants totaling $104,550.00. Cornerstone2: Technology We have examined the benefits of acquiring “Studio Abroad”, a program to manage our student exchange and study abroad programs. It will develop and maintain our database and permit us to report on many important facets of our successful programs. We are preparing to install the program next year. Cornerstone3: Administration Daniel Diaz, was hired as Program Coordinator for the International Programs Center. Daniel has studied abroad as an undergraduate at UNCG. In order to help faculty design and manage faculty-led study abroad programs Penelope Pynes has revised Faculty guidelines for study abroad found on the website: http://www.uncg.edu/ipg/facultyguidelines.pdf to tighten up deadlines for proposing new programs and to systemize renewal of programs. She has also compiled a detailed Program Director’s Handbook for faculty-led programs (http://www.uncg.edu/ipg/programdirectorhandbook.pdf) and created a Student Pre-departure Handbook for faculty-led programs (http://www.uncg.edu/ipg/studenthandbook.pdf). New safety measures have been put in place for these programs and they are outlined in the handbooks. Strategic Direction 1: Teaching and Learning During Fall Term, 2005, UNCG had a total number of 482 international students, among those were 220 degree-seeking international students, 103 exchange students, and 57 in the INTERLINK English Language Program. It is important to note that the number of graduate degree-seeking international students (156) has tripled since 1994 (when 51 were enrolled), in spite of the challenges resulting from increased security measures since 2001. The UNCG/INTERLINK English Language Program continues to be a strong supplier of degree-seeking students. Since INTERLINK’s arrival in 1997, over 180 students have matriculated from INTERLINK to UNCG, an average of more than 20 students per year. During 2005, 316 UNCG students took part in Study Abroad Programs. For the first time, less than half of the students (47%) were on semester or year long one-for-one student exchange programs. In return for the outgoing exchange students, UNCG welcomed 168 international exchange students, 46% were at UNCG for the entire academic year. The International Programs Center at UNCG expanded opportunities for students to study in Asia through exchange agreements with Yonsei University and Sungkyunkwan University, in Korea and Seinan Gakuin University in Japan. We also developed new exchange programs with the University of Southern Queensland, Australia, Fachhochschule Heilbronn, Germany, and Foggia University, Italy The first students participated in the study abroad options at Kazan State University in Russia and the program in Hyderabad University in India will begin in 2006. As a part of our Baden-Wuerttemberg exchange, we had one graduate student work in Vince Henrich’s lab (Thorsten Fauth). As a part of our Angers program, we brought in a graduate student (Prono) to teach French at UNCG, and this year we sent one graduate TA to Anger to teach English (Josh Lunsford). See above under 1.5.3. We also had three exchange students do internships at the conclusion of their programs (Prono, Wallprecht, Schmitt). Penelope Pynes offered a HSS 208 course (social and behavioral) fall 2005 incorporating Milton Bennett’s Developmental Model of Intercultural Sensitivity (DMIS) and the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) in preparation for the opening of the Lloyd International Honors College Strategic Direction 2: Creation and Application of Knowledge Intramural support for faculty to get international research experience reached $19,000 an increase of $6,800 from the previous year. IPC staff has encouraged the development of a lecture series by international scholars. The presentations are given in the I-House Residence Hall to students who are interested in learning more about the culture and scholarly activities of our guests.

Strategic direction 3: Campus Community UNCG’s 23rd Annual International Festival, April 16, 2005. Visitors interacted with international students among 30 country booths where artwork, food and cultural information were displayed. It attracted over 3,000 campus and community people, the largest crowd ever to attend this annual signature event. International Education Week in November involved a reception and introduced new successful activities such as two cultural simulations delivered to UNCG faculty and staff. The purpose of those activities was to raise awareness of how international students deal with the first stages of their academic and cultural experience in the United States The weekly Friday Fests, held in UNCG’s International House (Phillips-Hawkins) each attracted 70 to 80 people drawn from both on- and off-campus The Office of Housing and Residence Life and IPC cooperatively developed and implemented the I-Fellows program. Four I-House residents, I-Fellows, assist with the efforts of Housing and Residence Life and (IPC) to guide the transition of international students into the university community and provide opportunities for American and International students to interact and learn about different cultures. I-Fellows activities encompass Weekly International Movie Night in I-House, and International Dinner Night. During 2005, 77 UNCG faculty members traveled overseas on IPC funding. These included 47 who attended international conferences and were funded by the International Travel Fund; 26 whose international travel was supported by the Kohler Fund; and 4 who went overseas in their capacities as directors of UNCG’s various Study Abroad programs. (IPC) UNCG had 15 visiting scholars from 13 countries. They have been developing research and/or teaching in the following departments: Sociology, Education, Political Science, Math Sciences, Exercise and Sports Sciences, Physics, Psychology, Business Administration Strategic Direction 4: Economy and Quality of Life UNCG’s 23rd Annual International Festival, April 16, 2005. Visitors interacted with international students among 30 country booths displaying artwork, food and cultural information. It attracted over 3,000 campus and community people, the largest crowd ever to attend this annual signature event. International Education Week in November involved a photo contest, talent show and introduced new successful activities such as two cultural simulations delivered to UNCG faculty and staff. The purpose of those activities was to raise awareness of how international students deal with the first stages of their academic and cultural experience in the United States. Finally, the weekly Friday Fests, held in UNCG’s International House (Phillips-Hawkins) each attracted 70 to 80 people drawn from both on- and off-campus. IPC provided monetary support for several international campus events including the Shades of Color Conference hosted by the Office of Multicultural Affairs, a Professional Etiquette Workshop organized by Career Services, and bringing in a Spanish poet with the department of Romance Languages.

Strategic Direction 5: Access and Student Success As part of IPC international recruitment efforts Anelise Hofmann visited the Embassies of Saudi Arabia, and in Washington D.C. Several applications have been forthcoming because of these visits.

Anelise Hofmann, with the support of undergraduate admissions, CASA, the Graduate School, and Bryan School of Business, delivered a workshop on Admission to UNCG targeting INTERLINK students that are still in intensive English language training at UNCG and are interested in pursuing a degree in the U.S. Quality services result in students’ satisfaction and consequently retention.

The International Programs Center used Hobsons and Study Link, to recruit and help promote UNCG’s web presence for potential students in Asia. A large number of admission information requests have resulted from this investment.

Thirty (30) international students who graduated at UNCG in Fall ’04 and Spring ’05 engaged in 12 months of Optional Practical Training (OPT) in order to have more work experience before going back to their home countries. International Programs staff provided counseling regarding immigration regulations and compliance.

Executive Summary: Weatherspoon Art Museum Cornerstone 1 The Weatherspoon Art Museum garnered substantial financial support from varied sources. In 2005, an additional $404,101 was given to The Student First Capital Campaign; with pledges that brings us to more than 90% of our five-year goal of $1 million. In non-campaign support, the Weatherspoon received $53,753 in contributions to the Benefactors Fund (for art acquisitions); $40,500 in foundation gifts; and $42,541 from individuals. Continuing efforts to strengthen the Museum Association and Arts Foundation boards are proving successful. New members are providing increasing financial support and expertise in various pertinent areas. The Association Board raised the funds to hire consultants to prepare for and hold a retreat, one of the objectives of which is to reconsider the board’s responsibility in giving and role in fundraising. Cornerstone 2 An ongoing project is the further digitization of images for inclusion in the web database. Funding from the F. M. Kirby Foundation this year is being used to complete digitization of the Dillard Collection supported purchase and installation costs to equip the Dillard Room for video/DVD projections and power point presentations, making it more useful for small guest lectures and board meetings. The museum continues to expand its listserv to distribute program and event announcements to members, and the majority of press material is now provided to writers directly through the Internet. Cornerstone 3 In August, the Weatherspoon was awarded subsequent accreditation from the American Association of Museums (through 2015). A new Community and Public Relations Officer was hired in September. Strategic Direction I The Weatherspoon is committed to supporting academic programs at the university whenever possible and believes that the first-hand experience of works of art is a valuable part of a college education. WAM staff offer tours to UNCG classes and programs; serve on review boards and thesis committees for the Department of Art; lecture regularly in Museum Studies, Art Education, and Interior Architecture classes; make works of art available for classes to view first-hand; and permit students and faculty access to object and artists’ files for research purposes. We increasingly work with other academic departments on campus, often involving them in programming. Two graduate students from the Art Department work as assistants at WAM each year (most of them for the two-year period of their MFA program): one in the Registrar’s Office and one for the Curator of Education. They gain invaluable experience across a range of practices and procedures involved with museum work. The museum also uses six to eight FWS students each year who answer phones, help at special events, and work on a variety of miscellaneous projects. Interns often work in the summer and are assigned to a specific curatorial or education project that offers in-depth learning experiences. Strategic Direction 2 The Weatherspoon contributes to the scholarly, research and creative aspects of the university. In 2005, museum staff organized 12 of the 15 exhibitions it presented: two were accompanied by major books, one by a small catalogue, and several others by gallery guides. All of these publications included original essays and/or historical and interpretive information based on research and expertise in the field. In addition, educational programs and other special activities were offered for students and community members. Museum staff members are encouraged to actively participate in their fields by attending conferences (this year the North Carolina Museum Conference, North Carolina Museum Conference Southeast Museum Conference, ArtTable, Banff Curators;’ Conference, and National Art Educators Association) and by participating in gatherings of colleagues across the state and country (NC Educators Consortium, Contemporary Directors Consortium, and NC Curators Group). In a number of cases, staff presented papers. Strategic Direction 3 The Weatherspoon ensures a supportive and positive environment for the UNCG campus, the community, and other visitors through staff outreach, visitor services within the museum, and a commitment to collaboration and interdisciplinary learning. It provides opportunities that strengthen the diversity and engagement of the UNCG community. A small show this year of some twenty-five pieces from our collection, Artists and Civil Rights provided one of the many opportunities at Weatherspoon that strengthen diversity and engagement on campus. The exhibition was visited by classes and student groups from across campus, and the tours generated some meaningful discussions about the issues addressed. The aesthetic merits of the museum’s building and the great attention paid to exhibition installations make it a welcome space for meetings and events by both campus and community groups; these are


73

frequently noted by visitors. The museum also serves community learners through its educational programs and “New Art/New Audiences” project. Through local, regional and national publicity it helps raise awareness of UNCG. Strategic Direction 4 Weatherspoon staff is engaged in numerous outreach efforts that help to enhance the quality of life in the area. These range from talks on art to civic and community groups and working with cultural and economic development groups (United Arts Council, Action Greensboro, GCVB, etc.) to providing tours to a wide range of school and public groups. With cultural tourism growing in economic importance, and with the Weatherspoon becoming more of a destination due to regional and national publicity, the museum contributes to the economic vitality of the Piedmont Triad. Strategic Direction 5 As a unit of Academic Affairs, WAM provides critical support to the academic and learning environment of the university. It offers learning opportunities for children (K through 12), the campus community, and adults. With a national reputation for the excellence of its collections and exhibitions, the museum reinforces UNCG’s efforts to grow as a university of first choice. Museum staff advises students on career opportunities in the fine arts and in the museum field. By participating in the Art Department’s Museum Studies program, staff members offer a solid overview of the practices and procedures of museum work and, through working with interns and graduate assistants, provide first-hand learning experiences in the field.

Executive Summary: Enrollment Services Cornerstone: Technology Six kiosks with terminals for student and public use were installed in the Mossman Commons. These kiosks, including an ADA approved workstation for handicapped, are set with only UNCG network approved access and are networked to a small printer. The Curriculum Advising and Program Planning (CAPP) portion of the Banner student information system was expanded to include the programs in the School of Education. About 73% of the currently enrolled students and their advisors are able to follow their progress to degree using CAPP. In fall 2005 a new system of coding and tracking veteran students was initiated allowing for improved communication with students based on their benefit chapters. The system enhances interaction with the Veteran’s Certifying Official, facilitates the payment of their veterans’ benefits, and enables faster verification of their enrollment. The Communications division of the office

• Converted ShareNet intranet to an extranet for off-campus accessibility • Created online Undergraduate Bulletin Preview. Students registering in the spring for the following fall

semester can now see new course descriptions before print catalog is published. • Increased course schedule loading training and open lab opportunities; hence, the percentage of departments

loading their own course schedules has risen from 30% to 47%. • Conducted a comprehensive review of all user documentation and created a production schedule for reviewing

screenshots and updating instructions in advance of anticipated upgrade to Banner 7.0. • Established an in-house creative process for publication design; photography, design, and prepress all prepared

in the URO. Upgraded to Adobe CreativeSuite2 products. Cornerstone: Administration The Evening University Program was phased out in December 2005 – a new marketing initiative will be undertaken during 2006. In October a new EPA position, Director of Academic Systems and Student Achievement, was created. This position will be responsible for gathering data and general anecdotal information from across campus to evaluate current retention efforts and to begin to draw conclusions about their impact on retention. Student retention and graduation rates will be studied, and the report by the Retention Task Force will be revisited to renew the emphasis on student achievement and success. The Academic Systems portion of the position got off to a quick start in fall 2005 as data management responsibilities in Student Academic Services were shifted to the University Registrar’s Office, where it can be more efficiently handled. This shift has allowed staff in Student Academic Services to staff more focused on retention, advisor training, and an early warning system for identifying unsuccessful student achievement. As a function of this effort, Virtual Advising as it currently exists for new freshmen will be expanded to become a Virtual Services portal that will be readily available to all students, customizable so that it can serve as a tool that students can use from orientation to graduation planning. Cornerstone: Facilities The renovations to the old chancellor’s residence were completed – creating a new visitors center. Admissions moved a major portion of their recruiting staff to this location in May 2005. SD 1: Exemplary Learning Environments Improving support services for teaching and learning The Advising Council continued to increase the participation in the Master Advisor Program. To date, over 90 faculty and professional advisors have completed the program. During the 2005 year, the program sessions were enhanced to provide former participants and interested faculty and professional advisors with additional training opportunities. The Advising Council began work on a formalized assessment plan for academic advising on the UNCG campus. Following a shift of data management and reporting responsibilities from Student Academic Services, the University Registrar’s Office developed improved reports for faculty advisors during the spring 2006 rolling registration period for new transfer students. The reports provided expanded information, were emailed rather than sent through campus mail,


75

and allowed the academic units to utilize and customize the reports for their own use. Response to the improvements has been very positive. SD 4: Economy and Quality of Life Enrollment Services staff are serving in leadership roles a myriad of community and international agencies, in the Community College System, and represent UNCG in the educational consortia in Greensboro and across North Carolina. SD 5: Access and Student Success The Freshman Advantage initiative continued for the second year. Admitted freshmen who attended the Admitted Student Open House Programs in spring 2005 were allowed to register for a block of two fall 2006 courses. Data indicate that the yield of students who have not attended Open House in years past was 36.8%, compared with a yield of 86.2% for students who attended Open House in spring 2005. The retention rate from fall ’05 to spring ’06 for students who attended the Open House was 94.19%, compared with 92.98% of those who did not participate in Open House. In summer 2005, Student Academic Services published a new textbook for the University Studies program entitled Momentum: Your transition to UNCG. Micah Martin and Scott Amundsen coauthored this book, which is now the required text for UNS 101 and UNS 102 courses. The freshman to sophomore retention rate of freshmen who completed University Studies 101 UNS 101) in fall 2004 and returned for fall 2005 was 77.7%. This compares to a retention rate of 76.1 for freshmen who did not take the course. The average GPA for students taking UNS 101 in fall 2005 was 2.71, while the average GPA for new freshmen who did not take UNS 101 was 2.68. A multicultural task force was established in Admissions. Partnering with the Center for New North Carolinians the task force will be shaping culturally appropriate recruitment efforts of a variety of non-white populations. Multicultural themes are being introduced into all programs sponsored by Admissions. An admissions publication “UNCG at a Glance” has been translated into Spanish. Many of the offices in Enrollment Services participate in five Adult and Transfer information sessions hosted on UNCG’s campus. These information sessions offer adult and transfer students information about admission, financial aid, transfer credit and continual learning options.

Report A Academic Fiscal Resources 20005-2006

State Appropriations

Due to growth in student credit hour production, the Division of Academic Affairs in 2005-06 received an increase from state appropriations for both regular term and distance instruction. A legislative program for addressing the salaries of faculty and staff was provided.

Expansion:

Some $4.396 million was allocated within Academic Affairs to address enrollment-related needs; 43.03 teaching positions are included in this appropriation. These funds were allocated for teaching positions and salaries, for upgrade and acquisition of the necessary educational and data processing equipment to carry out these initiatives, for instructional and service operations, and for library enhancements.

Legislative Budget Reductions:

Budget reductions to the Division of Academic Affairs stemming from cuts implemented by the North Carolina General Assembly totaled nearly $1.397 million. These cuts resulted in the loss of teaching positions and salaries and in operating funds throughout the Division of Academic Affairs.

Salary Increases:

Legislation provided funding for salary increases for continuing faculty and staff.

For faculty and EPA non-faculty, the Board of Governors allocated 2% of our salary base to be used to recognize performance, merit, to respond to market conditions, to address salary inequities that may have arisen during a period of scarce resources for academic salaries, and to be used in any other manner that the Chancellor would determine to be in the best interest of the institution. Proceeds from the Campus-Initiated Tuition Increase provided additional salary increase funds for faculty and EPA non-faculty.

Members of the SPA workforce were provided with a $850 salary increase increment.

Budget Flexibility

During 2005-06, units in the Division of Academic Affairs used budget flexibility to meet needs of strategic importance in the realms of teaching and research. Funds were transferred to purchase computer equipment, office equipment, educational equipment, as well as specialized supplies and materials for use in the classrooms, laboratories, and studios of the campus.

Unrestricted Gifts and Investment Income

The University's unrestricted endowment allowed the Chancellor to allocate the sum of $374,000 (6.5% less than the 2004-05 allocation) to support the annual Conference on African-American Culture and Experience, the Excellence Awards day, awards programs for teaching, research, and graduate teaching excellence, the Race and Gender institute, searches for key administrative posts and general discretionary needs in the instructional and service units of academic affairs. Through an allocation of unrestricted gifts and investment income, the University continued the contract with a consulting firm in the nation's capital, which will enhance the University's ability to acquire research and training funds from Federal sources.


140

Indirect Cost Recovery

Some $3.43 million from indirect cost funds recovered by the University was available for distribution in 2005-06. These revenues reflect a $638,000 decrease when compared to 2004-05 available funds, and this decline was attributable to decreases in the SERVE and ERIC/CASS grants. Of that which was collected, ten percent of each grant's earnings was allocated to the principal investigators, and an equal amount was appropriated to the principal investigator's home department.
