#CyclonesEverywhere

A MESSAGE FROM THE ISUAA BOARD CHAIR FY22 will present the Iowa State University Alumni Association Board and staff with three parallel opportunities: reflecting, doing, and planning. We will remember what we have accomplished to date related to our current strategic plan, accomplish current goals, and plan for the future. I want to thank you, my colleagues, for coming on this journey with me. As I’ve started to reflect, do, and plan, my heart swells with pride for the legacy of service, aspiration, and accomplishment we are building. As we sum up FY21, we will continue to propel the ISU Alumni Association into the next decade. This organization has amazing opportunities for the upcoming year … opportunities that will further inspire our shared vision of making Iowa, communities, and the world a better place. Our ultimate goal is – firstly – to take stock of all we have learned and accomplished through the implementation of our strategic plan over the past four years and – secondly – to build on that foundation. 2020 taught us that, when we adapt together as a family, we become stronger. Dreams and aspirations are achieved because we learn how to adapt, evolve, and engage. The following quotes from our previous four Board chairs, when paired together with the quote at the top of this message, will serve as the bedrock on which we will build our future. • Chair Schmidt championed, “Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.” - Andrew Carnegie • Chair Cunningham shared, “Someone’s sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.” - Warren Buffet • Chair Connop helped us embrace “individual commitment to a group effort—that is what makes a teamwork, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.” - Vince Lombardi

In 1862, the signing of the Morrill Act ushered in a new kind of university – one that would be accessible and open to all. In 1868, students were admitted. In 1872, the college graduated its first class of alumni. These pioneering alumni went on to establish the Iowa State Agricultural College Alumni Association in 1878.

"Every generation leaves behind a legacy. What that legacy will be is determined by the people of that generation. What legacy do you want to leave behind?" – Representative John Lewis

That land-grant idea has resulted in unparalleled success. Iowa State has consistently charted new paths. Faced with wars, famine, economic crises, civil unrest, natural disasters, and – most recently – a worldwide pandemic, Iowa State University has stayed resilient, innovative, and nimble. Our Cyclone family serves an integral role in advancing the mission and vision of Iowa State and ensures connections amongst faculty, staff, students, parents, and friends. As this Board and staff look to the future, these commitments will not change. Our diverse stakeholders, our financial operations, our definitions of engagement, and our collaboration with the university, volunteers, and internally between Board members and staff must become more intentional and strategic. We judge the success of Iowa State not just by metrics, but – most importantly – by the success of our individual Iowa State family members, partners, and worldwide friends. When they succeed, we all succeed! There is nothing more powerful than coming together and creating a legacy inspired by this amazing story of Iowa State University. Let’s leave a mark on this world that cannot be erased. Let’s leave a legacy that inspires this Iowa State family to continue doing amazing things throughout the world and for each other. Former U.S. Representative John Lewis walked across the Edmund Pettus Bridge excited for a new, more inclusive tomorrow. FY22 will be a banner year for this organization and this Board as we add to the bridge we are building toward the future. I encourage each of us to buckle up, come ready to work, and have fun charting the next decade…together as one!

FY22 ISUAA BOARD GOALS CONSTITUENT ENGAGEMENT: a. The Constituent Engagement Advisory Work Group will work with staff to determine a set of strategies by November 2021 that will enhance marketing efforts for the online business directory for regional connections between Cyclone-owned businesses and alumni. Staff will select the top three areas of focus to test by February 2022. Success will be measured by the number of new businesses added to the online directory. The work group will identify any additional specific measurables. b. The Constituent Engagement Advisory Work Group will work with staff to develop a list of strategies by November 2021 that will enhance the existing membership retention plan. Staff will select three strategies to test by February 2022.

COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS: a. The Collaborative Partnerships Advisory Work Group will develop strategies by January 2022 of ways the ISUAA can employ to better engage Board Associates and utilize former Board members. These strategies will be presented to the Board by November 2021. The Executive Committee will then work with the Board to narrow the recommendations down to the top three, in ranked order, for each group by February 2022. Management and the Board Chair will work to employ up to two of the ideas for each group by May 2022. b.

PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURE TIPS Article VIII-Section 3 (Parliamentary Procedure) of the ISUAA Bylaws states, “Matters of procedure in parliamentary practice, not covered in the Articles of Incorporation or these bylaws, shall be governed by the latest edition of Robert's Rules of Order.” The purpose of these tips is to help all board members understand some basics of following proper parliamentary procedure for board and committee meetings.

Member is recognized by chair, and member presents motion in proper form - “I move that (give specific business item) be approved.

Chair asks for a second.

Another member seconds the motion.

Chair calls for discussion on motion.

Upon completion of discussion, Chair calls for vote (All in favor; then, all opposed, and any abstaining). Special Note: Vote is usually by voice, but chair can take a vote by show of hands or by asking members to stand. If special circumstances call for a recorded vote (due to policy or chair wants to be sure all members vote), than a roll call vote is taken.

Chair announces vote results with one tap of gavel and moves on to next item on agenda.

The use of parliamentary procedures promotes efficient meetings so the business can be transacted in an orderly manner. Practicing proper parliamentary procedure also helps the group in the following ways: •

address one item at a time,

•

extend courtesy to all involved in the meeting,

•

ensure majority rules, and

•

protect rights of all members.

Use of gavel This is a symbol of leadership, and it helps keep meetings flowing efficiently. •

One tap (3 basic uses) - 1. After announcing results of vote; means that business item is completed. 2. Meeting is adjourned. 3. Members are to be seated.

•

Two taps - Officially call meeting to order.

•

Three taps - Signal that all members are to stand (such as for salute to flag).

•

Robert's Rules of Order has many specific motions that can be used to help conduct efficient and productive meetings. Two basic motions that could sometimes be used in a meeting are the motion to amend and the motion to refer to a committee. •

Amend is when during discussion on a motion, a board/committee member can add/delete language in the original motion by properly approving such an amendment before voting on the main motion as amended..

•

Refer to a committee is when discussion on a motion brings up areas or questions that need further information before a final decision can be made. If approved, the committee is charged to get information and bring item(s) back to a future meeting for the final decision to be made by the Board.

Series of taps (2 basic uses) - 1. Get members attention. Everyone is to be quiet and sit down so meeting can be called to order. 2. Restore order; help get attention and focus back on the current business item.

Basics of a motion to formally and properly make decision on a business item which is officially on the approved board or committee agenda. Agenda should clearly show which items will need board or committee approval.

Adjourn the meeting 1.

Chair calls for motion to adjourn after all items on agenda are completed.

Member is recognized and moves to adjourn.

Report/update is given by board member and/or staff

Chair gets a second from another member.

Discussion and questions on item.

Chair asks for a motion to approve specific item which has been indicated needs board/committee approval.

Chair takes vote (Note- motion to adjourn is not debatable so no discussion).

Chair announces that meeting is adjourned and taps gavel once.

Consent Agenda An organization can follow protocol to have this on agenda. Basic item is minutes of previous meeting to be approved. ISUAA Board protocol has been to include formal approval of an appointment of a board associate to a committee or a non-alumnus/a representative to the board as part of the consent agenda. Key point of proper parliamentary procedure on 'Consent Agenda' is that it means one motion is properly presented and seconded to approve the 'Consent Agenda.' Chair can ask for minor clarification or correction on minutes but no open discussion is allowed! Immediately take vote!! If a board member wants to discuss something specific on the 'Consent Agenda,' chair must move that item off the 'Consent Agenda' and place it later in the meeting as a separate item to be fully discussed and then properly voted on.

Executive Sessions (Formally known as 'Closed Meetings of the Board') Such sessions should be of very, very limited use by the ISUAA Board of Directors. The primary function of a Planned Executive Session should be to discuss/review the ISUAA President/CEO evaluation. Only if a specific legal or liability issue has come forward on an item, should such a session be on the agenda. The ISUAA Board adopted an Executive Session Policy in 2018. The current board chair needs to be responsible to ensure all board members understand this policy and ensure the policy is followed. The Executive Sessions Policy, adopted by the ISUAA Board of Directors, meets all basic parliamentary procedure rules for these sessions as well as legal requirements.

HISTORY OF THE ISU ALUMNI ASSOCIATION The Iowa State University Alumni Association was founded Nov. 12, 1878, by the first graduating class (1872) of Iowa Agricultural College. The class consisted of 26 alumni—24 men and two women. The original mission, which is still honored today, was to keep alumni close to the college (now university) and to each other. Edgar W. Stanton (class of 1872) served as the Association’s first president. Stanton served as president until 1893. The Association has functioned continuously since that time. Under the leadership of Ward R. Jones (class of 1897), president from 1893 to 1920, the Association was first incorporated in 1904 as an independent, self-governing association and began publication of the periodical Iowa State Alumnus in 1905, which continued publication for 69 years. Membership dues, $1 per alumnus/a, were first charged in 1910. This included an Alumnus subscription. In 1914, the Association employed a professional staff and established an office in Alumni Hall. Harold D. Pride (class of 1897) became president in 1921 and served until 1932. The Association’s office was moved to the Memorial Union in 1928. In 1932, the Alumni Association, under the leadership of Wallace E. Barron (class of 1928), was reincorporated to legalize the organization for the acceptance of gifts and bequests for the college. From 1934-1938, the Association had rights to all potentially patentable processes and devices growing out of the college-supported research. In 1938, the Iowa State Research Foundation was incorporated, and the Association assigned all its interests in the area of patents to the new foundation. Barron served in this role until 1968. By World War II, gifts to Iowa State through the Alumni Association totaled $100,000.

From 1951 to 1980, alumni gifts were solicited annually by the affiliate organization, the Alumni Achievement Fund, to finance a wide variety of projects and activities that would not be supported by state appropriations alone. During this time, the Association was led by Robert L. Crom (class of 1950) serving from 1968 to 1971, Don F. Gustofson (class of 1955) serving from 1971 to 1979, and James A. Hopson (class of 1969) serving from 1979 to 1999. In the 1970s, the Association expanded its outreach to include the engagement of current students by creating the Student Alumni Association (known today as the Student Alumni Leadership Council).

As the Alumni Association moved into the 1980s, the emphasis on service increased. Ongoing fundraising activities for the university were assumed by the newly incorporated Iowa State University Achievement Foundation, now known as the Iowa State University Foundation. The number of alumni had doubled during the decade of the ’70s, and services to the group expanded rapidly during the ’80s. Memberships in the organization soared, allowing new programs and services to be developed, including VISIONS, a full-color quarterly magazine. Programs and services for alumni in the 1990s were enhanced by an emphasis on research and planning. Since 1990, the Board of Directors has commissioned market research, conducted self-studies and external reviews, and developed five strategic plans designed to focus resources on increasing memberships, visibility, and services to alumni and the university. The recommendations from the 1996 self-study and external review and the 1997-2000 Strategic Plan guided the budget and programming decisions for the Association to better serve Iowa State and its present and future alumni and friends. In 1999, Jeffery W. Johnson (class of 2014) was hired as the Association's eighth leader. The Board also voted in 1999 to create The Circle, a group composed of Iowa State University Alumni Association former presidents/chairs and executive directors/presidents. In 2011, The Circle leadership expanded the group’s membership to include honorary members. Honorary members consisted of spouses and partners of deceased leaders and long-serving staff of the Association. Today, The Circle continues to work on behalf of the university and the Association. The 2001-2006 Strategic Plan focused on strengthening membership, engaging constituents, developing strategic alliances, and enhancing organization health. In 2003, the Board voted to focus its efforts on building a permanent home and planned for the celebration of the 125th anniversary of the Alumni Association. A proposal for an alumni center was approved by the Iowa Board of Regents in FY04. Due to the impending renovation of the Memorial Union, the Alumni Association took up temporary residence in Fisher-Nickell Hall. The Alumni Association celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2003-2004 and reached its goal of topping 50,000 members

by the end of 2005, making it the second-largest duespaying member organization in the Big 12 Conference. A new strategic plan for 2006-2009 was adopted in May 2006, with an emphasis on connecting alumni and friends to ISU and each other, engaging students for a lifetime connection to Iowa State, and positioning the ISUAA to advance Iowa State University. In 2006, the Association also assumed responsibility from the university for oversight of the ISU Retirees Association and the College for Seniors program (renamed the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Iowa State University in 2008 (OLLI at ISU), established to serve educational needs of individuals 50 years of age or older. The OLLI at ISU program was established through a grant, and subsequent $1M endowment gift, from the Bernard Osher Foundation. Construction of the new ISU Alumni Center on Beach Avenue in the Iowa State Center complex began in August 2006. Roy (class of 1957) and Bobbi (2006 honorary alumna) Reiman funded the cost of the building’s construction, with additional donors contributing to the project’s furnishings, art pieces, gardens, and endowment. HLKB architectural firm of Des Moines designed the facility, ISU’s Office of Facilities Planning and Management served as project and construction managers, and Woodruff Construction of Fort Dodge, Iowa, was selected as the facility contractor. The 34,500-square-foot facility was dedicated during Homecoming on Oct. 25, 2008. In 2007, the Board of Directors approved the creation of the Young Alumni Council (YAC), an organization charged with enhancing service to and engagement of recent graduates, defined today as less than 12 years out of Iowa State. In 2020, YAC was reconstituted to be a listserve group and had its name changed to InCYde Influencers. In 2008, the Association’s Board of Directors signed and implemented an official memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the university, clarifying the relationship between the university and the Association. This MOU was amended in 2019. As part of this understanding, the Association’s president and CEO became the sole employee of the Association. Ongoing evaluation, as well as future hiring of the Association’s president and CEO, is the responsibility of the Association’s Board with input from the president of the university. The Board signed a similar MOU with the ISU Foundation in 2010.

In 2009, the Financial Success Task Force concluded its work and voted in 2010 to have staff of the ISUAA remain “loaned” employees from the university. The Board voted in 2009 to create The Leadership Guild to be a constituent group charged with re-engaging former ISUAA Board members in the life, work, and aspiration of the Association. In 2009-2010, the Alumni Center grounds were landscaped; dedication ceremonies were held in October 2011. In 2010, the staff and Board began work on both a new strategic plan and an Alumni Center business plan. Both were approved in 2012. The 2012-2016 strategic plan focused on student and alumni networks, promoting the excellence of Iowa State, and providing exceptional service to constituents. In addition, under the new plan the Association sought to nurture loyalty, pride, and tradition; be a healthy, sustainable organization; and provide a destination for the Iowa State family in the ISU Alumni Center. In 2012, the Board of Directors kicked off a membership campaign to grow paid membership from 50,000 to 60,000 by the end of 2016 and increase the Association’s use of social media technologies. During Homecoming 2013, the Alumni Association celebrated the 5th anniversary of the dedication of the ISU Alumni Center, with a focus on the building’s themed hallways. Also during Homecoming, the Student Alumni Leadership Council celebrated its 40th anniversary. In spring 2014, the Association published a special VISIONS Across America issue of VISIONS magazine and opened its companion portrait exhibit in the Brunnier Art Museum. During FY14, the Association adopted a Strategic Values Proposition statement. In FY15 the Association’s Board approved a staff reorganization plan. The plan was implemented in FY16. The Board and staff worked together to draft a FY16 work plan that focused on the following four areas: communications, engagement, membership, and financial health. In FY15 the Association utilized a Task Force on Diversity and Inclusion to develop its Culture Statement. On Oct. 29, 2014, Lora and Russ Talbot (’17 honorary alumni) of Belmond, Iowa, signed an ISU Foundation agreement making a $2.5M gift commitment to endow the Association’s president and CEO position. The endowment led to the position being retitled to the Lora and Russ Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO. This endowment also

HISTORY OF THE ISU ALUMNI ASSOCIATION CONTINUED became the first non-academic endowed position on the Iowa State University campus and the first such endowment for an alumni relations position in the nation. Furthermore, following the hiring of a vice president for marketing, engagement, and business development, the Association issued a request for proposals for branding and marketing services. Flynn Wright of Des Moines was hired. The ISUAA Board approved three major initiatives in FY17: 1) new branding elements, marketing strategies, and the rallying cry “Cyclones Everywhere;” 2) relaunch of its legacy program under the name LegaCY Club; and 3) a new fiveyear strategic plan focusing on constituent engagement, collaborative partnerships, internal organization and diversity, and financial health. FY18 was framed by the first-year implementation of the Association’s five-year Strategic Plan. Key accomplishments were the completion of a comprehensive Programs and Services Audit, staff reorganization plan, staff professional development funding plan, successful fundraising, a refocused budgeting process, and outreach to collaborative campus partners.

FY19 saw the Association complete an all-alumni printed directory; a redesign of the ISUAA’s mobile app; including partnering with the Registrar’s Office to add the Commencement program to the app; solidify an inaugural sponsor for the annual wall calendar; increase the number of travelers, OLLI participants, University Book Store sales, Gala attendees; and focus on diversity, especially related to alumni of color. Financial policy work further enhanced the sustainable future of the organization. The Association saw engagement with its alumni of color grow from 7% in FY18 to 14.44% in FY20. A three-year Memorandum of Understanding was signed with the Office of Extension and Outreach. In September 2019, the Association hosted its inaugural Loyal Leaders Celebration Weekend. In March 2020, Association staff began working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Alumni Center was closed to the public and outreach activities and programs were moved online.

AFFILIATED ORGANIZATIONS CONTINUED STANTON MEMORIAL CARILLON FOUNDATION The Stanton Memorial Carillon Foundation (hereafter referred to as SMCF) was incorporated on Dec. 31, 1954, to preserve, improve, and further the advancement of the carillon at Iowa State University. Membership in the foundation consists of eight (8) alumni not connected with the faculty or governing body of Iowa State University who serve five (5) years with balanced terminations, the director of finance and Alumni Center operations of the ISU Alumni Association, the Talbot Endowed ISUAA president and CEO and two governors of the ISU Foundation. The SMCF meets once annually in April.

CYCLONES ARE EVERYWHERE! Alumni, students, and friends of Iowa State University are located throughout the world. The ISU Alumni Association is continuously learning more and more about these constituents. The Association's ultimate goals are to attract and retain members and to involve ISU constituents in the life and work of the University. Serving members is at the center of everything the Association does—from producing an award-winning magazine to providing innovative ways for ISUAA members to connect online to ISU, to the Association, and with each other.

ALUMNI 279,086 Iowa State alumni live in more than 150 countries. A total of 95.3% of alumni live in the United States; 2.7% live world-wide – from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. Membership in the alumni population – those holding degrees from ISU – totaled more than 33,619 in FY21, representing 76.3% of total Alumni Association members. Young alumni represent more than 23.5% of all alumni, 3.5% of whom have active Alumni Association memberships. (Source: ISU Alumni Association Country, State, County Report, July 2021.)

STUDENTS Fall 2020 enrollment at Iowa State was 31,825. Academic year 2020-2021 student membership in the Alumni Association reached 1,600 members. Sophomores made up the largest category of members, with freshmen close behind. FAN membership represented 13.3% of total students. (Sources: ISU Fact Book 2020-2021 and ISU Alumni Association FAN Report, July 2021.)

FRIENDS Friends of Iowa State are perhaps too numerous to count, but we do keep in touch with a special group of non-alumni—former students, spouses, parents, ISU faculty and staff, and others who have chosen to strengthen their affiliation with ISU through Association membership. 6,029 non-alumni friends represented 14.6% of the Association’s FY21 total membership. (Source: ISU Alumni Association Membership Statistics Report, July 2021.)

These groups/individuals are chosen by the current Board chair with input from the Talbot Endowed ISUAA president and CEO, who may also solicit input from other ISUAA staff members. To ensure the right balance of expertise and staff support, as well as to engage a greater number of individuals in the life, work, andw aspirations of Iowa State and the ISUAA, the ISUAA Board chair, from time to time, may appoint non-ISUAA Board members, referred to as Board associates, to these aforementioned groups. Board associates can serve one four-year term or the duration of the assigned task(s). They also are asked to attend the August Board retreat and participate in regular meetings related to their committees, task forces, advisory work groups, or liaison appointments. Board associates’ terminations or resignations are handled in the same manner as an ISUAA Board of Directors member.

A grievance is any significant concern, other than harassment, that arises and is in violation of Board or personnel practices, either between members of the ISUAA Board of Directors or Alumni Association employees and Board directors. Board directors are encouraged to take grievances involving another director directly to that person for discussion and resolution. If the two directors are unable to resolve their differences, they may at that time request a mediation meeting with the chair of the Board with both directors present. If the grievance is unresolved at that level, a second mediation meeting can be arranged with the Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO and/or executive committee. The resolution of the chair and the Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO and/or executive committee shall be considered final. Board directors are encouraged to take grievances involving staff directly to that person for discussion and resolution. If the two are unable to resolve their differences, they may at that time request a mediation meeting with the Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO and/or the chair of the Board of Directors. The resolution between these parties shall be considered final. Should the grievance involve a Board director and the Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO, the involved parties should meet and attempt to resolve their differences. If the two are unable to resolve their differences, they may request a mediation meeting with the chair of the Board and the executive committee. If the grievance is unresolved at that level, a second mediation meeting can be arranged with the president of the university or his/her designee for discussion and final resolution. Board members are encouraged to take grievances involving the chair directly to that person for discussion and resolution. If the two are unable to resolve their differences, they may at that time request a mediation meeting with the executive committee. The resolution between these parties shall be considered final. The ISUAA Board of Directors recognizes that certain circumstances may arise in which it may be inappropriate for Board members to pursue the resolution of a problem

in the prescribed sequence. The following exceptions are instances where a Board member may bypass steps to seek resolution of a situation by discussing the matter confidentially with the president of the university. • If the grievance or problem involves a known or suspected violation of the law • If the grievance or problem is clearly not within the authority of the Board chair to resolve

GRIEVANCE POLICY

• If the parties involved mutually agree to bypass the Board chair • If the nature of the grievance, problem, or dispute involves or has been caused by the chair and/or Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO This policy does not apply to harassment grievances, which should be handled pursuant to the harassment policy. Adopted by the ISU Alumni Association Board of Directors on May 22, 2004.

HARASSMENT POLICY The ISUAA Board of Directors expressly prohibits any employee or Board member from harassment or discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, marital status, disability, status as a U.S. Vietnam Era Veteran, or any group protected by state or local law. Sexual harassment undermines the integrity of the employment and volunteer relationship. All employees and volunteers must be allowed to work in an environment free from unsolicited and unwelcome sexual overtures. Sexual harassment reduces morale, interferes with work productivity, impugns individual dignity, and is contrary to the ISUAA mission. With respect to sexual harassment, the ISUAA Board of Directors prohibits the following: 1. Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and all other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual or otherwise offensive nature, especially where the conduct has the purpose or effect of creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment. 2. Offensive comments, jokes, innuendos, and other sexually oriented statements.

106

BOARD POLICIES – GENERAL CONTINUED If an individual alleges that harassment has occurred, the reporting of the incident shall occur as follows: 1. If the individual making the complaint is a staff member who claims harassment by a Board member, the incident should be reported to the Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO or the university’s director of equal opportunity and diversity, who will investigate the matter and take appropriate action. 2. If the individual making the complaint is a Board member who claims harassment by a staff member, the incident should be reported to the chair or any member of the executive committee of the ISUAA Board, or to the Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO, who will have the incident investigated and take appropriate action. 3. If the individual making the complaint is a Board member who claims harassment by another Board member, the incident should be reported to the chair or any member of the executive committee of the ISUAA Board, who will investigate the matter and take appropriate action. The ISUAA prohibits any form of retaliation for filing a bona fide complaint under this policy or for assisting in a complaint investigation. Adopted by the ISU Alumni Association Board of Directors on May 22, 2004.

MEDIA POLICY This policy is intended to address non-routine contact with the media and those situations that have not been previously designated by the Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO as part of the ongoing job responsibilities of specific Alumni Association staff and/or Board of Directors. To ensure the quality and consistency of non-routine information provided to media sources, the following shall be enforced:

107

• All media contacts are to be handled by the Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO, or his or her designee. • All press releases or other promotional materials are to be approved by the Talbot Endowed ISUAA President and CEO, or his or her designee, prior to dissemination. • Failure to comply with the media policy shall constitute grounds for removal.

NEPOTISM POLICY The Iowa State University Alumni Association permits the employment of qualified relatives of employees and Board members as long as such employment does not create an actual or perceived conflict of interest. For purposes of this policy, “relative” is a spouse, partner, child, parent, sibling, grandparent, grandchild, or corresponding in-law or “step” relation. The Iowa State University Alumni Association will exercise sound business judgment in the placement of related employees in accordance with the following guidelines: 1. Individuals who are related by blood or marriage are permitted to work for the Iowa State University Alumni Association, provided no direct reporting or supervisory/ management relationship exists. That is, no employee is permitted to work within the “chain of command” of a relative such that one relative’s work responsibilities, salary, or career progress could be influenced by the other relative. 2. No relatives are permitted to work in the same department or in any other positions in which the Iowa State University Alumni Association management believes an inherent conflict of interest may exist. 3. Employees who marry while employed are treated in accordance with these guidelines. If, in the opinion of the Iowa State University Alumni Association management, a conflict or an apparent conflict arises as a result of the marriage, one of the employees will be transferred at the earliest practical time. 4. The Iowa State University Alumni Association management recognizes at times, employees and their “close friends,” “partners,” or “significant others” may be assigned to positions that create a co-worker or supervisor-subordinate relationship. The Iowa State University Alumni Association management will, in its discretion, exercise sound judgment with respect to the placement of employees in these situations in order to avoid the creation of a conflict or the appearance of a conflict of interest, avoid favoritism or the appearance of favoritism, and decrease the likelihood of sexual harassment in the workplace.

The Iowa State University Alumni Association seeks to collect books, artifacts, and memorabilia that promote the traditions of Iowa State, tell the story of Iowa State and the accomplishments of its graduates, and preserve the history of Iowa State. Artifacts and memorabilia in the ISU Alumni Association collection are meant to be viewed (and books browsed) by visitors, and this collection is not meant to supplant the University Archives within the ISU Library. Items desired for the ISU Alumni Association collection should be in fair and original condition. The ISUAA will limit the collection to items that can be reasonably well preserved, cared for, stored, and displayed. The ISUAA wishes its collection to fully represent the history of Iowa State across all decades and all academic and extracurricular experiences. Artifacts related to the following areas are of particular interest to the ISUAA include, but are not limited to: 1. Publications a. Books written by or about ISU graduates or students b. Books of general interest about Iowa State or the state of Iowa 2. The Bomb yearbook, published by ISU from 1894 -1994 has now been digitized by the ISU Archives and every issue is available at http://digitalcollections.lib.iastate. edu. Donations of print copies are no longer needed for the ISU Alumni Center memorabilia collection. We are looking for unique items which highlight the memories and traditions such as: a. Letter sweaters and other clothing b. Homecoming and VEISHEA buttons; other buttons c. Class rings and other Iowa State jewelry d. Pennants e. Letters f. Scrapbooks and photo albums g. Items depicting VEISHEA, Homecoming, and other campus activities h. Select campus photographs and photos of student life at Iowa State (Note: Most donations of photos will be sent to the University Archives.)

i. Memorabilia related to fraternities and sororities, student housing, and student organizations (Note: University Archives houses all papers and documents associated with student organizations.) j. Items related to campus icons (i.e., the Campanile) k. Iowa State glassware

Process for donating to the ISUAA collection 1. Call: Anyone wishing to discuss a potential donation should call the ISUAA toll-free at 1-877-ISU-ALUM (478-2586) or locally at 294-6525 2. Email: A donor’s first contact may also be through an email to the ISUAA. Information and/or questions about a donation should be directed to alumni@iastate.edu. 3. Drop by: Although the ISUAA discourages the dropping of items without first inquiring about the donation, it is acceptable for donors to simply drop by with their item(s), or to drop by and visit with us about the donation.

Process for determining if items will be included in the collection 1. The ISUAA staff, using the collection guidelines established by the ISUAA Board of Directors outlined above, will determine whether or not the item fits the ISUAA collection. 2. If the item is accepted, the donor may drop the item off or mail it to the ISU Alumni Center. 3. If an item is left for evaluation and the item is not accepted, the donor must pick the item up, pay for its return shipping, or allow the ISUAA to dispose of the item (see “alternative outcomes” below). Items will be held for only one month, unless other arrangements have been made. 4. In rare circumstances, a member of the ISUAA staff will travel to the donor’s home or business to evaluate and/or pick up items that are large, fragile, or numerous if the donor is unable to deliver the item(s).

If the item is accepted for the collection 1. The item will become a part of the ISU Alumni Association collection.

2. Most items will be displayed in the ISU Alumni Center or stored in the Center. 3. In some circumstances, the item will be loaned to another ISU entity for display (i.e., University Museums, University Archives, Department of Athletics) or stored in another ISU location (i.e., University Archives) but remain in the ISUAA collection. 4. If an item is deemed too rare or fragile for the ISUAA collection, it will be transported for permanent housing in the University Archives. This includes most photographs. 5. The ISUAA reserves the right to eliminate any item at any time from its collection (see “alternative outcomes” below). By gifting the item to the ISUAA collections, the donor waives the right to restrict the item’s use unless specifically agreed upon in writing at the time of the donation.

Alternative outcomes 1. The item will not be accepted, and it will remain with the donor. 2. The item will not be accepted, but the donor will be advised to inquire about including the item in the University Museums or University Archives collections. 3. The item will be accepted but not included in the collection. In this situation the item may be included in a silent auction to raise funds for Association programs, warehoused, sold, or destroyed. The donor will approve the use of the items unconditionally upon donation.

Process for acknowledging gifts Whether an item is accepted or refused, the ISUAA staff will acknowledge each donor in writing. A copy of all acknowledgements will remain on file at the ISU Alumni Center.

Anonymity The ISUAA will respect all requests for anonymity as it relates to donor recognition of items donated to the ISU Alumni Center.
