Special issue: Board of Trustees
When President Mitch Daniels came to Purdue, he requested trustees lower his base pay and designate 30 percent of that money as "at-risk," meaning he would have to meet certain goals in order to earn any portion of those funds. Today (Sept. 27) the University's trustees approved the set of weighted goals that will be used to determine how much of that at-risk pay Daniels could earn annually.
The Board of Trustees today (Sept. 27) approved planning and construction of the Active Learning Center, a 162,000-square-foot structure at the site of the aged Engineering Administration Building and the vacant heating and power north building at the heart of campus. The board also approved renovation and construction of space in several engineering buildings, the replacement of a chiller, and infrastructure improvements to two Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne buildings.
The Board of Trustees today (Sept. 27) ratified appointments of three named professors and approved a resolution of appreciation for former board chairman Keith Krach.
