Ohio State University Trustees to meet June 4, 2004

COLUMBUS – The Ohio State University Board of Trustees and its committees will
meet Friday, June 4, 2004, at the Longaberger Alumni House, 2200 Olentangy River Road.

As you will see in reviewing materials for the June 4 Board of Trustees meeting, the format for these monthly meetings has changed. The Board’s two major committee meetings (Academic and Student Affairs and Fiscal Affairs) will be held concurrently on Friday mornings beginning at 10 a.m. (For the June meeting, a third committee meeting, the Investments Committee, will meet at 11:15 a.m.) The full Board will meet Friday afternoons beginning at 1:30 p.m.

Occasionally, the Board will host a luncheon with various constituent groups between committee meetings and the full Board meeting. On June 4, for example, the Trustees will host a luncheon for this year\'s Distinguished University Professors and their families and guests.

The purpose of the new format is to facilitate the active participation of all Board members on the most significant matters under consideration, to assist interaction with President Holbrook and her staff on these topics, to ensure a more uniform reporting process for committee chairs and to use Board members’ time most efficiently and productively. The format was devised after a review and consideration of Board governance matters.

The agenda follows:
