Summary of Carroll College Board of Trustees Action
March 7, 2003
The Carroll College Board of Trustees met today to review recent actions on
campus, including the faculty vote of no confidence in President Frank S. Falcone
on March 3, 2003.
Thomas F. Badciong, Chairman of the Carroll College Board of Trustees and a
1962 graduate of Carroll, said the board thoroughly reviewed the faculty rationale
for its recent action.
"These are important issues that concern all of our students, alumni, faculty
and staff," Badciong said. "The trustees remain committed to ensuring the
long-term success of Carroll College and to providing the very best educational
experience for our students."
To address issues identified by students, faculty and alumni, the board
approved the following resolutions:
RESOLUTION 1: The Board of Trustees reaffirms the Carroll College Mission
Statement and Vision Statement, both adopted in May 1995, and its Statement of Roles
and Responsibilities, adopted in May 1996.
RESOLUTION 2: The Board of Trustees requests the continuation of the
prioritization process. The Board endorses the inclusion of students and alumni, along
with faculty, in the subsequent review and study of recommendations to take
place during the 2003-2004 academic year.
RESOLUTION 3: The Board of Trustees instructs the president to lead the
appropriate constituencies of the college to once again address issues of shared
governance. This process should include a clarification of the Statement of Roles
and Responsibilities.
RESOLUTION 4: The Board of Trustees reaffirms the liberal arts as the basis of
study for all students. Faculty, staff, alumni and student views should be
considered in an examination of the liberal arts core experience.
The Board of Trustees, which includes 27 Carroll College alumni, also
unanimously approved the following resolution, proposed by Mr. P.E. MacAllister,
chairman emeritus and a 1940 graduate of Carroll College:
Resolution of Support
Whereas:
the progress of the College since 1993 has been evaluated, and is both
noteworthy and exemplary, and
Whereas:
the issues raised by the faculty have been reviewed and considered, and
Whereas:
the strategic direction of the College as currently outlined is supported, and
Whereas:
careful deliberation has been given to the record of the President over the
last 10 years, including:
10 successive years of balanced budgets.
Tuition increases averaging only 3.76 percent per year, below the average for
Wisconsin and the nation.
Enrollment increases of 50 percent, from 1,336 in 1992-93 to 2,009 in 2002-03.
Annual student financial aid increases from $6 million to $14.3 million.
Expanded educational offerings, including 9 new undergraduate majors and two
new master's degree programs.
Expanded student housing to accommodate rising enrollment.
An increase in total faculty positions, from 120 to 230.
The creation, through donor funds, of six new endowed faculty positions.
A successful capital campaign, which had an original goal $25 million, but
raised more than $36 million.
The completion of more than $30 million of campus improvements.
Be it resolved that the Carroll College Board of Trustees hereby strongly
affirms the leadership of Dr. Frank S. Falcone and authorizes the board chairman to
extend his contract.
The Board of Trustees expressed its desire to have the entire Carroll College
Community work together in a collaborative fashion to advance the college and
serve our students.
"We hope that together, we can all move forward in the spirit of cooperation to
ensure Carroll's future," Badciong said.
