TRANSCRIPT
People
• Debra Goldberg joins us…welcome!
• All P&T cases successful
• Oliver McBryan retiring
• New search this year (JKB chair; please get involved)
• NB: 4 of the 5 faculty hired in CEAS last year were women
• Away on sabbatical/leave this year: Ken, Leysia, Oliver, Tammy, Alex W. (NB: this helps the budget; more later on this)
• Co-appointed faculty: Connors, Colunga, Hunter, Palmer, Vachherajani, Waite.
People, cont.
• Adjuncts, adjoints sorted out.
• Research faculty: Carzaniga, Cole (joint w/CSLR), Heimbigner, Mulligan, Pellom, Repenning, Ward (joint w/CSLR). Total allocation: 25% of our headcount.
• The term “headcount” is somewhat unclear, though, as the College doesn’t quite know how to count our ICS faculty. Working on this.
• Other CS/ICS issues: salary disparity, College budget formulae. Working on this, too.
• Junior-faculty mentoring/progress review program running well.
• Nominated people for college, university, national awards (e.g., BFA)
• Other honors: Bobby, Andrzej, Hal, Alex, Henry, Mike E, …
Amer Diwan, Rick Han and John Black just became our 7th, 8th, and 9th “Young Investigator” Award winners (NSF, Packard Foundation, etc.)
SIGACT
Alex Wolf
Hal Gabow
1/6th of CS faculty > 3.5 on FCQ, and many have won University and College teaching awards.
Two of the 35 Special Interest Groups of the ACM are chaired by CU/CS faculty:
People, cont.
• Brought staff-related policies and paperwork into compliance w/CU rules (position descriptions, ratings, etc.)
• PatW hired, Steph moving into supervisory role, Schenk & Dehus running CSOps and CSELOps, respectively (+ LLAs).
• CSUAC involvement in Department affairs continues: CSEL, peer tutoring, point-of-contact/liason, long-range planning, PRP, ….. (Jeavons now leading it)
• Thanks to grad students who served on committees last year
Physical Plant:
• ECOT 1B systems lab reaching completion
• CSOps now in 727
• various OT office swapping
• CSEL complex renovated
• some other grad labs renovated
• BuffOne card access system
• College machine room (2B80) renovation still underway
• poptop may come back onto front burner; working on this…

Budget-related projects
• Got some of debt forgiven (~$100K)• Got the payback time horizon lengthened for the rest • But then the guard changed…more on this later.• Rostered Bruce ($87K off the GF)• Streamlined CSOps • Reduced instructor costs (building on Clayton’s start)
• Instituted new AY policy (not much coming in; need to work on this)
• Course fees (~$40K)• Senior Project course fees• Endowments (e.g., Patrick Martin scholarship)
• Again, it helps the budget when people* take leaves & sabbaticals
* whose salaries are rostered in CS
Budget: improvements this year:
• Have real dollars in accounts to cover promises
• Better TA support
• Better grader support
• Some grant matching
• Some renovation/facilities projects
• Instructors for popular courses that no one can/will teach
• Using course fee revenue to buy software, hardware for CSEL
Undergraduates:• 328 majors in 05/06 (82+42+69+135)• 102 BS degrees awarded in 04/05 • The trends:

Dean education projects:
• Understand the current CS funding climate, take it into account (e.g., for jr fac), and help us change it for the better by working at the Deans/National level, and maybe with the CRA. Have gotten him to understand that NSF doesn’t want us to simply spam them with more proposals.
• Understand the ICS pressures and issues, and change policies accordingly. Have gotten him to change the CEAS budget formula so it counts all SCH equally.
• Be proactive about investing in CS, so we don’t get behind the curve next time and end up buying in a seller’s market, under enrollment pressure. He is now aware of this, and has been giving us back our slots even though our enrollment/ICR/etc. are dropping.
• Understand and help us take advantage of cross-fertilization opportunities (e.g., CIMB). He has gone to bat for us at higher levels w.r.t. this — e.g., startup help.
Things that had fallen by the wayside a year ago:
• Advisory board: met for PRP• Affiliates program: still by wayside; need help• Other industry outreach: IBM, STek, Microsoft, Sandia, Sun…
• Fundraising: underway- senior projects endowment- poptop
- LLAs for CSEL- lab endowments- scholarships
On the horizon:
ERC visit to finish up PRP (thanks to Clayton & Buzz for running this)
Further state funding cuts (flat this year b/c of tuition hike; refs C & D would make a huge difference here)
Enrollment drops
Extramural funding drops • $6,982 less ICR this year• Horrible NSF success %s• Need to branch out to other agencies• We need everyone to start pulling their weight wrt grants. Our resources ($, positions, space) ride on it! • Consider a pre-review committee, like Biochem has?

On the horizon, cont.:
• “CS+X”
• The rest of the world is learning what computing can do for them, and we need to be proactively involved in that
• Add outsourcing to that picture: • many (most?) isolated programming jobs will go overseas• jobs that involves communication, interdisc teamwork less likely to be offshored
• Is the traditional CS core adequate job preparation in this climate?
• What’s the role of ABET/accreditation/assessment in all of this?
• And what about the ITLL? (<100 SCHs for CS, vs. >5000 for Aero)
Things to think about during our retreat in January…
Retreat:
12 January 2006, probably 9am-4pm or some such, off campus
Facilitator: Stan Deetz, Communications
Goal: pick a few topics, assess where we are wrt them, and produce a plan for the future
Series of Friday lunches to plan and do homework (9/9, 10/28, 12/9)
Some topics that came up last Friday:- identity- undergrad program- grad program- diversity- outreach- ways to increase resources- strategic faculty hiring- …
Budget-related projects
• Got some of debt forgiven (~$100K)• Got the payback time horizon lengthened for the rest • But then the guard changed….• Rostered Bruce ($87K off the GF)• Streamlined CSOps (budget dropped from $285K to $103K, $40K of which is paid by dept)• Reduced instructor costs (building on Clayton’s start)
• Instituted new AY policy (not much coming in; need to work on this)
• Course fees (~$40K)• Senior Project course fees• Endowments (e.g., Patrick Martin scholarship)
• Again, it helps the budget when people* take leaves & sabbaticals
* whose salaries are rostered in CS
“deficit resolution plan”
ICR:
We get ~$175K (23% of operating budget).
Department used to return some of that to individual PIs.
That policy changed in 2002 because of budget deficit: department absorbed all ‘banked’ ICR and stopped returning any.
Would obviously be better to return some, and execcomm has been discussing that for two years. Helps the people who bring in those grants to get their work done.
We always get frightened by the trends:
