AGB National Conference on Trusteeship April 21-23, 2013 Hyatt Regency San Francisco
Floor Plan Hyatt Regency San Francisco
WELCOME TO AGB’S 2013 NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON TRUSTEESHIP,
the only national gathering designed specifically for higher education boards and institution leaders. We will focus on governance-related issues and provide opportunities to learn best practices, find out how other boards are addressing challenges, hear provocative talks by internationally recognized thought leaders, and engage with board members and leaders from across higher education. You will examine the evolving issues of technology, institutional financial aid, and educational quality; hear new ideas on global trends in higher education and the changing academic workforce; and have the opportunity to discuss challenges particular to your institution’s sector in facilitated discussions among board members and institution leaders. This year, we will look at the big ideas and emerging trends that are transforming higher education and the responsibility of governing boards, together with institution heads, to lead that change.
Sincerely,
Richard D. Legon President, AGB
The Hon. Jim E. Geringer Chair, Board of Directors, AGB Chair, Western Governors University Former Governor, Wyoming

SUNDAY, APRIL 21
Finance 101: Financial Literacy for Board Members* As the stewards of the institution, board members have the responsibility to protect the institution’s financial assets and health. An important element of this charge is understanding basic terms and concepts that underlie the institution’s financial strategy, reporting, and analysis. This session will provide a jargon-free overview of higher education finance and discuss best practices for board members to use during meetings. Learn the fundamental questions each board member should be asking of the administration to ensure the board is meeting its fiduciary obligation.
Strengthening the Board through the Governance Committee: Recruiting Board Members, Assessing Board Performance, and Getting the Most from Board Members* The governance committee (a new-and-improved committee on trustees) shapes and enhances the performance of the board by identifying needed talent, orienting new members, providing continuing education, assessing individual and board performance, planning for leadership succession, and inspiring and rewarding service. It’s also the board’s central resource for best practices, knowledge, inspiration, and innovation to drive, develop, and sustain the board’s policies and practices at the highest levels of governance excellence. Learn the tools for transforming a good board into a great board and how to successfully engage board members in that work. SPEAKERS

SUNDAY, APRIL 21 8:30-11:30 am Leading Change* When do boards need to step up and lead change at the institutions and university systems they govern? What value can board members add to the change process?

Board Structure (or Restructuring) and the Effective Use of Its Committees* Boards and their committees can get stuck in the past. As the higher education environment continues to change, and in some dramatic ways, to what extent is your board structured to govern effectively? How effective are its committees, the place where boards do the bulk of their work? Boards must align their structures and committees with strategic priorities to best fit the needs of the institution while remaining true to bylaw intent and demonstrating a nimbleness that is required in today’s

New Presidents Seminar: Working Effectively with Your Board* At the heart of a successful presidency is a successful relationship between the board and the president. The comfort of a honeymoon period can mean that new presidents do not adequately invest the necessary time and energy developing their working relationship with the board. Yet, it is imperative for new presidents to work smartly with their boards. This half-day set of conversations directed to presidents in the first three years on the job focuses on the key issues to which new presidents need to give appropriate attention. Participants are invited to join us for lunch and to participate in the afternoon presidential working group sessions. Complimentary for those registered for NCT. Lunch is included.

This set of working groups will tackle the real work of governance. As the institution evolves, and the environment in which it operates presents new challenges and offers new opportunities, governance must keep pace. Developed in conjunction with presidents, this session provides opportunities to develop strategies for enhancing the board, avoiding key pitfalls, and developing the president-board partnership that is necessary to ensure a successful presidency. Complimentary for those registered for NCT. Lunch is included. Pre-registration required.

Sharing Governance: Balance of Influence Among Board, Faculty, and Administration Faculty, trustees, and administrators are often accused of speaking different languages, coming from different backgrounds, promoting different priorities, and having different understandings of their institutions. Yet, they share a common commitment to strengthening the institutions they serve. It is because of this shared responsibility for the institution’s future and well-being that these three stakeholders must interact successfully. This workshop focuses on strengthening the collective work through the sharing of governance with the aim of helping institutions advance their missions and deepen their impact. SPEAKERS

Resolving Sticky Governance Issues* Recent high-profile events provide an impetus for boards to rethink their work, revisit current practices, and determine how to best address future challenges, anticipated and unforeseen. This session draws on the experience and wisdom of former trustees and campus leaders to explore how your institution and board can best respond to today’s pressing governance challenges, often attended to in the glare of the public spotlight. Beyond the day-to-day work of governance, how are boards handling the big issues? How are they not prepared to handle them? What can be done? SPEAKERS

Using Metrics Effectively* Governing boards can make a substantial contribution to effective governance by helping to establish specific measures and indicators that monitor the institution’s or system’s performance. A good set of metrics provides data to assist the board in governing strategically. Cooperating in the process of developing and regularly reviewing dashboard indicators can help the board engage with the administration and keep institution or system priorities fresh in everyone’s mind. Understand how other boards (both public and independent) have effectively used metrics and dashboard indicators and outline effective metrics and strategies to use them in your own governance work.

SUNDAY, APRIL 21 12:30-3:30 pm Investment Outsourcing: A Guide for Boards Exploring New Approaches to Asset Management* Institutions are increasingly delegating investment decision making to discretionary investment advisors and outsource CIO services. While the use of outsourcing may provide benefits for institutions, the proliferation of different service models poses serious challenges for boards considering changes to their investment management processes. Outsourcing may also change the ways boards and investment committees fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities. This workshop provides an overview of the various types of outsource CIO or discretionary investment services available, detailed guidance on the RFP and selection process, manager oversight, due diligence, and cost considerations. The workshop will also discuss the implications of new investment models for governance practice and committee work.

Aligning Money and Mission: Rethinking the Institution’s Business Model* Nearly all institutional leaders know that the times require a more strategic allocation of resources if institutions are to thrive. Colleges and universities will need to intentionally align their money with their mission. This approach, which we label strategic finance, is a comprehensive method to address that challenge. It begins with defining an institutional future that will sustain equilibrium between revenue and expense trends. Learn proven strategies to ensure that the board, president, and other officers are setting strategic direction, aligning all resources in that direction, monitoring progress, and making needed course corrections.

Education for a Competitive Future AGB is pleased to welcome Robert Reich, one of the world’s leading thinkers about work and the economy. During his speech, Secretary Reich will focus on the subject of the nation’s economic competitiveness and what the trends in higher education will likely mean.
The Velocity and Trajectory of Change in Higher Education Boards are not only in the news these days, they are the news. They are newsworthy as they attempt to govern in a dynamic environment that expects, if not demands, change. Don’t effect enough change or fast enough, and institutions are in the headlines. Push for too much change, too quickly, or in the wrong direction, and boards, too, become news. Adding further visibility is the emphasis on change guided by a business-minded approach to change within the academy. This session focuses on the challenges facing boards as they try to manage the trajectories of their institutions and the velocity of change.

How is technology (finally) changing everything? (It is, isn’t it?) Technology has long promised to upend everything done in higher education. Commentators have argued that breakthroughs will change how we teach, what is taught, how students learn, and how higher education is paid for. Yet, to date, the realities of technology have rarely lived up to its promises. Are the tides turning? Is technology (finally) poised to change higher education? In what ways? With what benefits? And at what costs? What are the implications for technological breakthroughs, current and yet emerging? How can boards best prepare (if they really have to)? SPEAKERS

Understanding Institutional Aid: Guidance for Board Members For several reasons, institutional student aid has been growing steadily if not rapidly at public and independent institutions. The “discount rate”—institutional aid dollars as a share of gross tuition revenue—is rising. Awarded on the basis of financial need, for merit, or other reasons, institutional student aid requires a funding source: institutional revenues (primarily tuition dollars) and other dedicated revenues, such as private sources. In this time of heightened sensitivity to the cost and value of higher education, it is becoming clear that institutional student aid models must be examined. With funding from the Woodruff Foundation, AGB has partnered with the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO) on a project that will help inform board discussions about future institutional aid policies.

The Board’s Role in Ensuring LGBT Inclusion This panel starts with the assumption that addressing issues of lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender (LGBT) inclusion in the selection of board members and senior executives at colleges and universities is a critical component of 21st-century institutional success. Demographic changes make clear that as the next generation of leaders in higher education moves to assume responsibility for governance of colleges and universities, they will be more diverse in every way, including sexual orientation. The fact that 5 percent of voters in the recent presidential election self-identified in exit polls as LGBT perhaps offers a sense of the ramifications for higher education. Utilizing their personal experiences in different institutional settings, panelists will explore how boards can effectively engage the talents of LGBT alumni, community leaders, and academic professionals for the critical roles of board members and presidents.

The Board’s Role in the Oversight of Educational Quality and Student Learning* The continued call for higher education to be accountable for student learning has put academic quality on the forefront of strategic issues. But this issue, traditionally a prerogative of the faculty given little attention by the board, can be difficult to approach from a governance perspective. Yet effective board engagement regarding educational quality is imperative; it is a core fiduciary responsibility. This session frames the issues and challenges, including academic quality, productivity, student learning outcomes assessment, and effective relations with faculty and academic administrators.

Athletics: The Board’s Role in Oversight* The heat map for institutional risk has a hot spot for intercollegiate athletics. The significance of managing risk as well as the financial investment of the institution in athletics programs demands informed board oversight. Yet AGB’s 2012 study, Trust, Accountability, and Integrity: Board Responsibilities for Intercollegiate Athletics, revealed a big gap between actual board practices and those recommended in AGB’s Statement on Board Responsibilities for Intercollegiate Athletics. Learn about the results of this recent study, supported by the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics, including AGB’s provocative recommended best practices. Copies of the study report will be provided.

Is U.S. Higher Education Still the Best in the World? Global Trends in Higher Education Higher education is a global enterprise that is becoming increasingly competitive. Other countries are making renewed investments in their universities and actively recruiting not only international students, but also faculty. As other countries strengthen their systems of higher education, numerous questions emerge: What are the key global trends and issues? Where are the global hot spots for higher education? What does it all mean for U.S. colleges and universities? How worried should we be? SPEAKERS

Form 990 as a Governance Tool The Form 990 is one of the most comprehensive publicly available documents representing your institution. The IRS requests that this form be provided to the entire governing body, but do you use the document as a governance tool? What about the hundreds (yes, hundreds) of tax disclosures completed by your institution each year? Do you have visibility to the federal, international, and state reporting requirements? Is your institution in compliance? This session will highlight the “new normal” with respect to reporting and the questions a board or committee member should ask. We’ll also share benchmarking data leveraging Crowe’s proprietary software: the Crowe Tax Risk Assessment & Control Solution (C-TRAC®). SPEAKERS

The Impact of Fiscal Realities on Institutional Mission The fiscal pressures on institutions today are tremendous: cut expenses, provide expanded and better services, increase educational quality, be efficient, and offer more and different academic programs. Few institutions, if any, have the resources necessary to produce in the ways they envision. The realities facing boards and institutional leaders consist of a series of trade-offs about how best to deliver on their missions. The choices are often between competing expenditures that individually would contribute to the mission yet cannot be made without sacrifices. This session explores the experiences of institutions where boards have had to make difficult decisions.

Today’s College Students: Asking the Right Questions Who are today’s college students, really? What do they think? What do they want? How do they behave? When do they sleep? The answers are likely different than someone of an older generation might think. Join our speakers along with some students (who also happen to be trustees) to understand better the students in your classrooms, how they perceive the world into which they are about to graduate, and how well-equipped they are to thrive. The new insights into today’s students have profound implications for the work of boards and campus leaders. INTRODUCTION

The Risk of Not Assessing Risk Recent headlines demonstrate that the potential for institutionally damaging risk can be just around the corner. Risk occurs in many ways and on many levels. Not all risk is equal, and the types of risk calling for board attention tend to be ill-defined. Yet, because the responsibility for managing risk well extends into the board room, trustees must have a strategy for addressing risk while not becoming overwhelmed, and thus becoming unresponsive or irresponsible.

AT&T AT&T believes that investing in a well-educated workforce may be the single most important thing we can do to help America remain the leader in a digital, global economy. For young adults who have not graduated from high school or who are at risk of dropping out, work and work-based learning can be a highly effective lever to reengage them in education and the community. In 2008, with an initial $100 million commitment, AT&T launched its Aspire initiative to promote high school success that leads to college and career readiness. Through Aspire, AT&T and the AT&T Foundation are working to help more students at risk of dropping out graduate from high school. The company’s commitment and investment support achievement of the national graduation rate goal of 90 percent by 2020. AT&T also created the Aspire Mentoring Academy, giving its employees opportunities to work closely with students most at-risk of dropping out in the communities where they live and work.
ASSOCIATION OF GOVERNING BOARDS OF UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES // WWW.AGB.ORG
Since 2008, and with an additional $250 million pledged in 2012, AT&T has reached more than 1,000 national and local nonprofits and community-based organizations that have, in turn, impacted more than 1 million students at-risk of dropping out.

AT&T 208 S. AKARD SUITE 100 DALLAS, TX 75202 WWW.ATT.COM
In 2013, AT&T is working to address the high school dropout crisis in ways that are more effective and sustainable than ever before. The company is embracing innovation in education that is fueled by technology, local investment, people, and proven programs all joining to drive exponential change and high school success. As an example, AT&T enlists the help of its AT&T Foundry innovation centers to work with the education community, social entrepreneurs, and other companies to develop mobile technologies to give students, parents, and educators new ways to connect and to improve education outcomes. The company is exploring the use of web-based applications, and mobilized gamification and entertainment technology—the communications environments in which many of today’s students are most comfortable—to instill a new level of excitement into learning. AT&T is working to reverse the dropout crisis by advancing understanding of underlying issues and effective solutions, helping to bring proven programs to scale, and engaging youth and families in education success—all with the goal of helping students achieve their best possible futures.

BOARDVANTAGE About Us Used by over half of the Fortune 100, BoardVantage is making the paperless board room a reality. As leaders in secure mobility, we’re setting the bar for a rich director experience, and as experts in process capture, we are driving the shift from book access to board process. BoardVantage consistently meets the security standards of enterprise IT departments, including those of global financial institutions. Platform Today, directors rely on their iPads to access board materials in meetings and in between meetings. Not unreasonably, they require access to their content even if they are out of Wi-Fi range. This is a common scenario when board members are prepping for a meeting while in transit, perhaps reviewing materials or making annotations in-flight on the way to a meeting.
With the briefcase, BoardVantage extends the security of its board portal to the iPad. iOS Integration Whether in annotations, the time line, discussions, or any other functionality, BoardVantage has invested in deep integration between the iPad front end and the server back end to create a richer and more interactive director experience. This deep iOS integration opens up a wider range of access to board content. Now, it’s no longer just about the current meeting. Directors also get a bird’s-eye view of all previous meetings in animation, so that dense board information is presented with unprecedented efficiency. This means that directors now have information at their fingertips that was previously unavailable, along with access that is more efficient than before. The result is a director experience that is not only better than the browser, it is also better than print.

Online and Offline To address this need, BoardVantage offers the briefcase, an offline repository for downloading meeting materials. The briefcase syncs with the server so that any annotations made offline are immediately available online. Also, annotations made while offline are carried forward on the latest version of the boardbook, even if the boardbook was updated while the director was in offline mode. To make sure that directors always have the latest information at their fingertips, sync technology lets the corporate secretary push any new material directly to the director’s briefcase. All of this is accomplished in a seamless manner to make for a hassle-free director experience.
Mobility with Security But along with these advantages, the iPad has created new security risks, particularly discoverability. To address these concerns, all content downloaded remains under the central control of the administrator so that documents and annotations can be purged remotely. And in case individual directors have not deleted notes, expiration is automatic after 21 days. The briefcase is encrypted and password protected to safeguard its content if the device is lost or stolen. In that event, all content can then be purged centrally by the administrator.

David has extensive endowment, foundation, and pension fund management experience across multi-asset class portfolios, having also served as treasurer of the regents of the University of California; managing director, public markets, at University of Texas Investment Management Company; and founding member of Stanford Management Company. In addition, our investment team has significant experience in both direct and fund-of-funds investing at leading alternative asset management firms. Constituent was formed in 2012 by JZ Capital Partners (“JZCP”) and Constituent’s senior management. JZCP was founded in 1986 and is managed by Jordan/Zalaznick Advisers, Inc. Constituent has a deep network of contacts in the endowment and foundation community.

AO K\O ^RY_QR^P_V risk managers, applying a combination of traditional analytical risk tools together with practical judgment and insight honed by navigating previous investment cycles. We define risk in an absolute sense. Risk is the probability that capital is permanently impaired, not volatility. Differentiation Principal Investing Experience. Our investment team has extensive experience managing discretionary portfolios with full responsibility for the bottom line. We also have significant experience evaluating direct transactions and secondary investment opportunities in both traditional and alternative asset classes. Customization. We will manage all or part of our clients’ portfolios and offer customized solutions that are tailored to the objectives of our investment partners. Manager Selection and Access. Manager selection, not asset allocation, has driven historical relative out-performance. We believe we have a rigorous manager selection process that identifies potential top quartile performers early, especially within alternative assets where the potential for differentiation is greatest given the wide dispersion of returns. However, identifying top managers is not meaningful without access. At Constituent, we develop close partnerships with potential top managers to access their funds as value-added partners. Direct Transactions. Constituent has the ability to generate and execute both direct co-investments and secondary purchases of mature, existing funds by leveraging our relationships with top managers in the alternative asset classes. This provides our investors the potential to capture opportunities that are otherwise unavailable in a pure manager-of-managers model.

DILIGENT BOARD MEMBER SERVICES, INC. Diligent Boardbooks®—The World’s Most Widely Used Secure Board Portal Only one board portal in the world has been selected by over 2,500 boards, including AGB’s own board of directors, and more than 50 colleges and universities. It’s Diligent Boardbooks. With committed staffs and ambitious goals, the boards of educational institutions often look to pare down printing, support, and IT staff costs while improving trustee and director visibility with timely board information and updates. Here’s why Boardbooks is the ideal solution for higher education institutions that want to speed up and simplify how their board materials are produced, delivered and reviewed:
ASSOCIATION OF GOVERNING BOARDS OF UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES // WWW.AGB.ORG
F[h\ehcWdY[0 Built on the only page-level proprietary software in the business, Diligent Boardbooks offers the fastest screen views, quickest updates, easiest navigation, and most intuitive user interface. Our relentless focus has been on simplicity in design. The result: A board portal that trustees call fun and easy to use!
36
CeX_b_jo0 Trustees need a board portal that stays with them as they move from online to offline modes and among the iPad, PC, and browser. With a copy of the Diligent board portal app resident on each user’s iPad, trustees can view the app locally instead of relying on Wi-Fi or network connections.
I[hl_Y[0 High-quality, 24/7/365 service is crucial when an institution’s most important leadership needs access to board-related information under any circumstances. Support can help smooth the transition from the paper to digital world—and from internal or other portal solutions. 9edjheb0 With Diligent Boardbooks, institutions can rest assured that confidential board materials remain in the right hands. Designated individuals and groups can be given rights to view certain types of data. Rules can be put in place to control how board materials can be accessed and shared, and document-retention policies can be enforced electronically. Ekh 9b_[dji IWo ?j 8[ij “The difference that Diligent Boardbooks has made for us is nothing short of remarkable. We can now post information in real time, which means all documents are always up to date. It has also made our meetings more efficient in terms of accessing information.” Earnest Edwards, rector, board of visitors, Virginia State University
With a 97% client-retention rate over the past eight years, Diligent knows what drives successful board portal adoption and can help your institution improve its board effectiveness. Contact us today for a product demonstration or visit www.boardbooks.com for more information.
I[Ykh_jo0 Ever vigilant when it comes to security, Diligent combines a keen understanding of how the board process works with deep expertise in the constantly evolving technologies that underlie the board portal. It converts and encrypts at the page level, whereas other portals often protect only at the file or even filing-cabinet level.

GATEWAY INVESTMENT ADVISERS, LLC Specializing in risk-managed investment: Gateway Investment Advisers, LLC In today’s evolving financial markets, risk management has taken on renewed importance. That’s why Natixis Global Associates is pleased to bring you Gateway Investment Advisers, LLC (Gateway), a Cincinnati-based investment firm with over 30 years of history. As of December 31, 2012, Gateway managed $10.5 billion in assets in a combination of mutual funds, private accounts, and sub-advised assets.
An “alternative” manager Gateway was an early entrant into the alternative investment arena. But unlike other alternative strategies, Gateway Index/RA is liquid, transparent, and has had low relative volatility compared to equity investments. When compared to intermediate- to long-term fixed-income investments, it has had similar historical volatility but low risk correlation. Gateway clients include many foundations and endowments, pension funds, family offices, and private individuals.
Consistent long-term strategy Gateway’s core strategy uses a well-diversified equity portfolio as its foundation, but typically generates the bulk of its returns from the sale of index call options. It also uses index put options to help offset potential losses that may occur during dramatic, short-term market declines. This combination has produced a track record that has exhibited relative consistency in most equity markets and significantly lowered downside risk in stressed equity markets. Of course, past performance is no guarantee of future results.
About Natixis Global Associates Natixis Global Associates is the distribution affiliate of Natixis Global Asset Management, a $779 billion* firm with over 20 investment affiliates in the U.S., Europe, and Asia. This multi-boutique structure provides a direct connection to a world of specialized professionals with unique insights and diverse approaches to investing. The firm’s hallmark is a consultative approach focused on solving the big investment issues, a process known as Better thinking. Together ®. *As of 12/31/12

Finding opportunity in volatility Gateway believes that volatility can present opportunity and is dedicated to helping investors benefit from the volatility inherent in the marketplace. The Gateway Index/RA (risk-adjusted) objective is to capture the majority of the higher returns associated with equity market investments while exposing investors to less risk than other equity investments. The historical performance for this discretionary account program illustrates the success of Gateway’s approach.

HIGHVISTA STRATEGIES LLC Comprehensive Investment Strategy to Help Endowments Protect and Build Wealth Firm Overview and Mission HighVista Strategies seeks to help investors achieve their return and spending goals within their tolerance for risk. We strive to generate attractive, long-term, risk-adjusted returns through active asset allocation, broad diversiďŹ cation, and our access to extraordinary managers and other distinctive sources of return. Our approach is anchored in the endowment model but is distinguished by its focus on controlling risk and liquidity. The priority we place on capital preservation and avoiding major drawdowns fosters the patient and rigorous pursuit of excess returns, and it is a critical driver of long-term outperformance. Over the prior seven-year period, we have exceeded the return of both a Global 60/40 benchmark and the Wilshire TUCS Foundation & Endowment universe while maintaining lower risk.*
ASSOCIATION OF GOVERNING BOARDS OF UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES // WWW.AGB.ORG
Our clients utilize HighVista in a variety of ways: as a complete outsourced solution, as a long-term core portfolio holding, and as a tool to more efďŹ ciently manage risk through periods of changing volatility. We presently manage $3.7 billion.

How We Invest We do not pursue static policy allocations, but instead focus on optimizing return for a speciďŹ c amount of risk, or volatility. Our goal since inception has been to maintain portfolio risk at a moderate levelâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a modeled 8% to 9% annualized standard deviation of return under normal market conditionsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and to maximize return for that risk budget.

We have developed robust internal resources to match the investing capabilities of the largest university endowments, with 18 professionals dedicated to efďŹ ciently transacting broad market exposures, vetting managers, pursuing direct investment opportunities, and forecasting risk on behalf of our clients.

The foundation has a long-standing commitment to furthering the educational programs at many colleges and universities where we recruit staff. Our financial support provides some measure of assurance that the educational programs
at these institutions will remain competitive in attracting top academic talent in both the teaching and student bodies. More than $2.8 million has been donated in the past five years by our foundation for the purpose of supporting higher education and humanitarian causes. The leadership at Moss Adams recognizes that without higher education, there would be no Moss Adams.
