BUDGET COMMITTEE January 28, 2009 2

Action Item: J. Nicholson to send an email confirming the meeting. L. Mitton to confirm with J. Kelton.

• The President’s Advisory Committee (ICE) convened and held its first meeting yesterday. L. Scime did a marvelous job of bringing the diverse members of the committee to the same page. Twelve issues have been identified for investigation.

3. 2009/10 ANCILLARY BUDGETS

a) Centre for Continuing Education CCE

• Tracey Taylor-O’Reilly and Peter Smith joined the meeting.

• Tracey Taylor-O’Reilly presented the 2009/10 budget for the Centre for Continuing Education. Budget Committee members’ questions were addressed.

• With regard to recent contracts for training with the Government of Alberta, it was mentioned that the province provides grants to cover indirect costs through a management fee as well as the direct costs of the program. These additional funds will be critical if CCE plans to expand this type of business further. Conferences of government managers are one of the areas used for marketing CCE’s programs. Some opportunities have been lost due to insufficient resources to follow up. Currently, CCE is heavily involved in the development and delivery of these programs but knows that it will need to increase its marketing efforts in the future.

• The Federation of Canadian Municipalities was mentioned as an area to explore. CCE has found municipal governments difficult to engage due to tighter budgets and challenging procurement policies. CCE tends to go directly to the front line managers with programs that fall within their budgetary control.

• It was agreed that Tracey has done a remarkable job of turning CCE around. This budget envelope is one that McMaster can be proud of and is well positioned to weather the recession.

• Conversations have begun regarding goals for the next strategic plan. Ideas for future goals include improving the earning capacity of the unit to provide an income stream to the University, expanding programs, or providing the infrastructure to partner with the Faculties in expanding programs and services. It will be important for CCE to be well positioned to take advantage of opportunities emerging from the recession.

• There were three areas of funding from the Federal Budget that will help CCE. There is funding for retraining for industries in difficulty, increased funding for those on EI, and funding for those that don’t qualify for EI.

• CCE is looking at working strategically in a strengthened association with rest of the university regarding Distance Learning. CCE is improving quality and delivery in its current programs. The next program launched will be an on-line certificate program


where best practices and standardization can be achieved. A new product line being looked at is graduate certificates and/or professional graduate degrees. These programs would be offered in conjunction with the Faculties.

• The assumption is currently that CCE will continue to be housed in the downtown centre. While approximately $200K of the reserve is earmarked for capital improvements, some of the balance could be used to invest in areas of interest. There is the initial development to consider and then the capacity to absorb the losses that are typical in the first year.

• Tracey Taylor-O’Reilly and Peter Smith left the meeting. IT WAS DULY MOVED AND SECONDED To receive the 2009/10 Centre for Continuing Education Budget. The motion was carried.

• The Chair reminded committee members that budgets are received rather than approved at this stage. The data from individual budget envelopes are combined into a single budget spreadsheet for the university; this spreadsheet is not complete until all budgets have been presented and received. The first version of the university budget will be available in mid to late April at which time it will be discussed; a final version of the university budget will be available for approval about the middle of May. Budget items dealing with tuition rates, fees or some other charges need to be approved.

b) Telecommunications

• Heather Grigg and Natalie Illingworth joined the meeting.

• Heather Grigg presented the 2009/10 budget for Telecommunications. Budget Committee questions were addressed.

• Demand for land lines is likely to diminish over time as new technologies like cell phones take over. Revenues could be expected to fall as well, driving up rates, which in turn reduces use.

• Telecommunications will be looking at whether the current model makes sense in the longer term and at alternative revenue sources. Web conferencing is done centrally using a product called Elluminate; video conferencing is not centralized although Media Services does offer a video conferencing service. Another service to be investigated is an “all-in-one” service for cell, fax, email, voicemail, etc. (i.e., unified communications and messaging).

• The Bell contract is up for negotiation in 2009. The period for contracts for infrastructure (e.g., phone switches) tend to be about 5 years while contracts for service are usually in the range of 3 years.

• N. Illingworth has done an analysis on the impact of the proposed phone rate increase of $1 per year for each of the next three years. This rate increase would generate about $70K per year in total. Telecommunications was asked to consider the impact this increase would have on phone usage across campus and whether


the gains in reducing the deficit would be substantial enough to offset the anticipated negative reaction of users. The new CIO starts February 17, 2009. Any rate increase should be announced prior to his arrival so that there is no negative impact on his reputation just as he is starting the new job.

• There appears to be sufficient bandwidth at the moment to tackle new projects. Telecommunications has been able to negotiate contracts with secondary providers to increase bandwidth at no extra cost.

• The switchboard is predominantly run by part-time staff. Adjustments are being made to reduce services and save costs.

• Heather Grigg and Natalie Illingworth left the meeting.

• The Budget Committee is concerned about the potential for a shift in phone usage away from land lines and what form this shift would take. The proposed $1 per year increase in phone rates may not be wise politically given the current economic climate. It was acknowledged that there hasn’t been an increase in phone rates in many years, that the proposed increase is small and that the unit needs to reduce its deficit. It was pointed out that the costs of providing phone services have decreased substantially so profits on providing this service were strong for many years. This envelope used to have a significant budget reserve and financed expensive equipment for the university. The envelope still pays for installations of telecommunications equipment in new buildings. While Telecommunications is part of UTS, it is treated as an ancillary; Telecommunications contributes approximately $250K per year to the operating budget.

• The Budget Committee received the budget with the understanding that the new CIO would pay close attention over the coming year to integrating this group with UTS and repositioning the budget envelope for success.

IT WAS DULY MOVED AND SECONDED

To receive the 2009/10 Telecommunications Budget.

The motion was carried.

c) Parking

• Terry Sullivan, Diana Parker and Natalie Illingworth joined the meeting.

• Terry Sullivan presented the 2009/10 budget for Parking. Budget Committee questions were addressed.

• Fines are still being handed out to people illegally parked in loading zones, etc. but the number of fines issued has decreased with the new automated parking lots. The number of employees is being reduced over time from 8 to 4 as a result of the introduction of the automated gates. The priority of Parking Services is to educate people on the use of the new gate system.

• There is no increase in parking fees this year. The last large increase in parking fees was 5 years ago when fees rose from $39 to $67 to match cost of a bus pass. There was discussion about both raising and lowering parking rates. The


underground parking garage is nowhere near capacity in terms of use by permit holders; increasing the number of permit holder will require some marketing. Bike storage lockers are added in response to demand.

• Access to parking on campus has been an issue in the recruitment of new faculty for several years. The current seniority-based system of awarding parking spaces does not allow flexibility to accommodate these types of requests. On the other hand, it is difficult to maintain a balance between the needs of faculty and senior/long-term staff. Many US universities use a lottery system to allocate parking on an annual basis; Parking staff were unaware of this and said that such an option would be worth examining.

• Terry Sullivan, Diana Parker and Natalie Illingworth left the meeting.

IT WAS DULY MOVED AND SECONDED To receive the 2009/10 Parking Budget. The motion was carried.

• A. Jacob left the meeting.

d) Media Services

• Suzanne Moorcroft joined the meeting.

• Suzanne Moorcroft presented the 2009/10 budget for Media Production Services. Budget Committee questions were addressed.

• A Vice-President from a US university is doing assessment reviews on print environments for the Canadian University Print Management Association to provide print strategy tools for universities and colleges. McMaster is being used as a beta site so he will be doing a review of our operations and providing useful feedback regarding services, alliances, forms of communications, etc. This report will assist in determining where copies should be made (at the office printer, office photocopier, print shop or off campus), how to provide the best service economically, and how to encourage people to make the right decisions. This report is expected to be completed in the next couple of months.

• It is difficult to gauge the needs on campus and MPS tends to have a “feast or famine” workload. MPS needs the capacity to manage heavy volumes, particularly in September, and to that end had signed a substantial agreement with Xerox. MPS needs to maintain volume to cover the substantial fixed costs of this Xerox equipment. This situation has been discussed at PVP where it was agreed that work, particularly high volume printing, would be done in-house where possible. Staff in the offset printing area has been reduced over the last 6 or 7 years by approximately 30% so MPS is a leaner department today than in the past.

• It is helpful to link service areas with academic areas. As initiatives such as video conferencing move forward, there may be an opportunity to develop projects jointly. For example, Humanities has communications-specific multi-media equipment and one of the best computer labs on campus. It is worth investigating the possible


advantages of working together on issues such as training students, efficiencies in utilization, low-cost student labour, etc.

• The envelope is forecasting a $90K deficit this year and $130K next year at the current levels. Print use as a medium may keep declining. Budget Committee looks for a positive revenue stream from ancillaries. The question was posed as to whether and at what point MPS, at least in terms of print, should be eliminated.

• There are still some areas of growth, and solutions to some of the current fiscal problems may be found. There are some large costs associated with providing course-packs such as the cost of copyright access. Some faculty members are taking the printing of course-packs off campus to print shops that simply ignore the copyright issue. Research has shown that students still want their course materials in print form so that they can make notes. The challenge for MPS is to recapture the printing business that goes off campus.

• The credibility of revenue projections was discussed. It is expected that specific aspects of printing jobs for the hospital sector will return to MPS as budgets ease. Revenues have been consistent over the past few years and it is believed that gains from the right of first refusal and new marketing initiatives will be sufficient to generate about $200K in new revenues. Given that there is a 6-year contract in place with Xerox, there are serious challenges in utilizing this equipment efficiently. Xerox has offered to assist in marketing the IGEN service to other organizations. Colour capability on the new Sharp photocopiers has caused a temporary drop in colour printing business. It is believed that quality issues will lead to a return in print volume to previous levels in the longer term. The partnership collaboration with Mohawk College has been a challenge in the past because decisions by Mohawk management had resulted in substantial decreases in print volume; it is hoped that under the new management at Mohawk there may return of Mohawk print work to MPS.

• MPS reserves are negative and there is a projected deficit for this year and next year. However in the analysis of fixed costs, if MPS can increase production to 18M impressions annually, then it would produce $400K per year. This analysis is not included in the current projections. Success in achieving this goal will be what the Budget Committee will be looking for in the 5-month budget review in the fall of 2009.

• The $130K deficit includes a $100K transfer to reserve which should be removed to reduce their in-year deficit to $30k.

• Suzanne Moorcroft left the meeting.

• At the end of the 6-year contract with Xerox, it will be important to ask whether there should continue to be a print shop on campus.

Action Item: L. Scime to remove the $100k reserve and work toward a balanced MPS budget. This budget will be brought back to be received at a later date.

TO: University Budget Committee

iate Vice‐President (Academic) FROM: Peter Smith, Assoc

E: DAT February 2, 2009

E: Centre for Leadership in Learning R

I am attaching the 2009‐10 budget for the Centre for Leadership in Learning. The budget includes the Learning Technologies Resource Centre.

The CLL is undergoing quite significant changes. I recently commissioned a review of the CLL and the report makes many recommendations on its future structure and mandate. Following planned consultation with stakeholders, many of these recommendations will likely be acted upon. Budget implications are not clear, but allowances have been made in the budget for two replacement full‐time hires for the two people who resigned from the CLL in the summer of 2008.

The LTRC, on its part, is currently implementing the new Enterprise Blackboard Learning System (to be known as ELM – eLearn at Mac), which will replace the ageing WebCT and LearnLink systems. ELM is a considerably more sophisticated system than the ones it replaces and its implementation and roll out, along with the training of users, will require additional resources.

The attached budget is projecting a $205,885 carry‐forward from 2008‐09. These funds will be expensed over the 2009‐10 fiscal year to absorb the costs of contract personnel needed for the implementation of ELM. The budget projects no deficit at the end of 2009‐10. However, the budget assumes a transfer of $300,000 (US$219,184) from the University Technology Fund to pay the costs of the Blackboard software license, as per the contract with the vendor.

The attached notes from the Execute Director of LTRC provide further background n the individual components of the budget. o

Agenda Item 3e

CLL/LTRC 2009/10 Budget Narrative

*All 2009/10 CLL budgets were based on a 0% base budget increase 2-21004 CLL Lacking information and time lines for hiring CLL staff, I have budgeted for a full complement of four FTE’s based on May 2008 levels. A small salary/benefit increment was added (2.5%) realizing that new staff would not likely be earning at the level of senior staff who have left the department. Expenses were reduced to offset the increase. There remains a $29,500 operational deficit which could be reduced considerably depending on the salary entry level of the two new hires. It is assumed in the 08/09 roll-over that new staff will not be on board until May 1/09. 2-21006 LTRC The large carry-forwards of previous years were reduced to zero in 09/10 with the hiring of 3 contract positions in 2007/08 for the Blackboard implementation. Two contracts were extended through September 2009 and one terminates on May 1, 2009. This was made possible with the addition of $75,000 from the Technology Fund approved for the 2009/10 budget year. An additional $100,500 will be transferred from the new MacLive cost centre to offset operating costs associated with the campus-wide administration of Elluminate. The operating deficit of $33,000 is a result of the LMS contracts. In order to reduce expenses to the projected level the part-time LTRC admin secretary position (91 hrs/month) will be eliminated saving $35,500. 2-21016 Learning Management System The contractual Blackboard licensing costs including the SQL database for 09/10 total $219,184 U.S. At current exchange and tax rates approx $300,000 Canadian will be required. (This money has yet to be allocated.) We are trying to do without an additional Blackboard engagement worth approx $30,000 U.S. Our staff currently feel the engagement is not necessary although Blackboard insist it is important for our success and continue to try to sell it to us. Small LMS hardware and operating software expenses will continue to be paid out of the LTRC account. The Blackboard payment is due April 1, 2009, however, we could probably push this to May 1 in order to fall within our fiscal calendar. Any unfavourable 2008/09 balance in this account is due to unpredictable U.S. exchange rates. The Blackboard contract was negotiated when the exchange was on par. There are several engagements still outstanding for 08/09. Outstanding Blackboard travel expenses will be accrued in the 2-21006 LTRC account *At this time the LearnLink (FirstClass) maintenance contract will not be renewed on July 1/09 pending a decision and timeline to shut it down or relocate the service to another department. The current plan calls to run LearnLink for another year without maintenance as courses and clients transition to Blackboard.

Agenda Item 3e

2-21012 MacLive (new cost centre) MacLive is the name we have given to Elluminate which is a self-funding online conferencing software used for remote synchronous teaching and administrative conferencing. Currently a number of faculties and admin departments pay license fees based on the number of seats they anticipate using and the income is used to offset a yearly license fee plus LTRC support, maintenance and hardware. Last year $200,000 was pledged by faculties and departments to cover Elluminate costs and this was administered out of the technology fund since it was still a technology fund project using LTRC seconded staffing. The project has been very successful and has now gone live and is administered through the LTRC. Costs in 09/10 are anticipated to be $150,500. $50,000 will be expensed out of this account for licensing and 100,500 transferred to 2-21006 for LTRC support and expenses. The 09/10 model is based on 08/09 trends and is solely dependent on forthcoming commitments by faculties and administrative departments. 2-21015 Faculty Teaching Grants After the current small grant proposals are adjudicated it is estimated that 47,598 will carry over into 09/10 to add to the 44,500 allocation bringing available funds to 92,146. Grant money is disbursed through 2 rounds of large and small faculty grants for teaching and learning projects at McMaster. Small grants (base budget) come from this account and large grants from an Imperial Oil trust fund. 2-21017 Refining Directions This fund was previously used to further the goals of Refining Directions through a faculty/departmental application process. The available funds will cover 08/09 expenses and have been moved to a contingency fund in 09/10. 2-21018 STLHE This is a cost neutral account set up to run the on-campus STLHE office. STLHE reimburses the university on a quarterly basis for all expenses incurred.

Agenda Item 3e

TO: Budget Committee DATE: January 27, 2009 FROM: Peter Smith Chair, University Student Fees Committee RE: 2009/10 Tuition Fees and Miscellaneous Fees

Attached are the proposed Tuition and Miscellaneous Fees for 2009/10. The tuition fees for Ministry funded programs comply with The Guidelines for Implementation of the Tuition Fee Policy for Publicly-Assisted Universities dated March 13, 2006. The Miscellaneous Fees comply with the Compulsory Ancillary Fee Protocol Guidelines of the Ministry of Education and Training, dated June 8, 1994, and all agreements that McMaster has with student groups. It should be noted that we are recommending tuition rates for 2009/10 following the motion approved by the Board of Governors in May 2006 that read:

That the University implements tuition fees for Ministry funded programs according to Ministry guidelines for 2007/08, 2008/09, and 2009/10. We are seeking approval of the following recommendations:

1. That the 2009/10 tuition fees be recommended as detailed in Appendix A. 2. That the 2009/10 Miscellaneous Fee Schedule be recommended as detailed in

Appendix B.

Agenda Item 3f

TUITION AND MISCELLANEOUS FEES

MCMASTER UNIVERSITY 2009/10

Background On March 13, 2006 the Government of Ontario provided Universities with the Guidelines for Implementation of the Tuition Fee Policy for Publicly-Assisted Universities, 2006/07 to 2009/10 which provided a framework for 2006/07 through 2009/10. Tuition fees for students for whom McMaster is funded by the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities (MTCU) will be regulated during this time period. The government also announced significant changes to student financial aid including the Student Access Guarantee (SAG) that will assist OSAP eligible students to access postsecondary education. The Provincial Government had previously imposed a two-year tuition fee freeze for 2004/5 and 2005/6 for Canadian citizens and Landed Immigrants in regulated programs. These programs are defined by MTCU as “Arts & Science and Other” programs that at McMaster include most BA, BA Hons, BSc, BSc Hons, BASc, BHSc programs, and “Professional and Graduate” programs that include BCom, BEng and most Masters and PhD programs. The Medicine program tuition fee guidelines are considered to be the same as “Professional and Graduate”. The freeze did not apply to (1) international students, for whom the University received no Ministry funding, and who therefore are subject to differential fees or to (2) cost-recovery programs that do not receive Ministry funding such as various Graduate Diplomas. Under the 2006/07 – 2009/10 Framework, the University governing boards may increase regulated tuition fees subject to several constraints:

• Tuition fees for Level 1 students in “Arts & Science and Other” programs may increase by a maximum of 4.5%

• Tuition fees for Level 2 and above students in “Arts & Science and Other” programs may increase by a maximum of 4%

• Tuition fees for Level 1 students in “Professional and Graduate” programs may increase by a maximum of 8%

• Tuition fees for Level 2 and above students in “Professional and Graduate” programs may increase by a maximum of 4%

• Overall the average annual increase in tuition fees for all eligible students at McMaster may not be more than 5%. This value is calculated by multiplying

Agenda Item 3f

every program’s year-over-year tuition fee increase in percent by every program’s current year FTE enrolment. These results are added together and then divided by the total FTE enrolment.

PROPOSAL FOR 2009/10 Tuition Fees The Board of Governors approved a motion in May 2006 that the University implement tuition fees for Ministry funded programs according to Ministry guidelines for 2008/09, 2008/09 and 2009/10. The overall average increase in tuition fees for 2009/10 does not exceed the 5% cap imposed by the Provincial Government guidelines. Proposed Tuition Increases for 2009/10 (Appendix A) Domestic Students (Appendix A Tables 1 and 3)

- Level 1 undergraduate tuition in “Arts & Science and Other” programs increases by 4.5%

- Level 2 and above undergraduate tuition in “Arts & Science and Other” programs increases by 4%

- Level 1 undergraduate tuition in “Professional” programs increases by 8% - Level 2 and above undergraduate tuition in “Professional” programs increases by

4% - Level 1 Medicine tuition increases by 6% (maximum allowed is 8%). This

decision was reached because the University will be providing lower bursaries to medical students beginning in 2009/10.

- Level 2 and above Medicine tuition increases by 4% - Level 1 Midwifery by 7% - Level 2 and above Midwifery by 4% - Levels 1 Graduate tuition increases by 8% with the exception of Advanced

Design and Manufacturing, UNENE (University Network of Excellence in Nuclear Engineering) – increased by 0%. These are determined in accordance with participating institutions.

- Level 2 and above Graduate tuition increases by 4%

Agenda Item 3f

International Students (Appendix A Tables 2 and 4)

- All levels of International undergraduate tuition increases by 6%. - International graduate student tuition increases by 6% with the exception of some

programs where the market demand will not permit this increase. Note: Some fees have been adjusted to whole numbers, or to values that divide equally into appropriate terms or unit numbers resulting in a percentage increase that may be marginally less than the nominal amount. Cost Recovery Tuition (Appendix A Tables 5 and 6) These programs do not receive Ministry funding and are not governed by their guidelines. The University Student Fees Committee recommends that the Budget Committee recommend the following motion:

That the 2009/10 tuition fees be recommended as detailed in Appendix A.

Miscellaneous Fees There are two types of Miscellaneous Student Fees that are detailed in Appendix B.

1) Mandatory Supplementary Fees are collected with tuition. Some are remitted to

Student Organizations such as the McMaster Student Union (MSU) and the Graduate Student Association (GSA) and others are for university student services. These fees can only increase by Consumer Price Index (CPI) unless a membership referendum is held according to the Ministry Protocol and agreements in place at McMaster. CPI has been calculated at 2.3% (rounded to the nearest cent) which is the annual All Ontario CPI inflation rate.

2) Fees charged by the University as Incurred can change based on recommendations

from the area responsible for providing the service. The recommendation must clearly outline the need for the change and be recommended by the Fees Committee and Budget Committee for approval of the Finance Committee and Board of Governors. A brief summary of the rationale for any proposed introduction of new fees or changes to these types of fees has been noted on Appendix B.

The University Student Fees Committee recommends that the Budget Committee recommend the following motion:

That the 2009/10 Miscellaneous Fee Schedule be recommended as detailed in Appendix B.
