The Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education is supporting this holiday and encourages institutions to do so. Since distributing this information, there have been questions regarding State Regents' calendar requirements to meet the "in-class" credit hour standard. As you know, State Regents' policy, "3.19 Academic Calendar" sets the requirements for a sixteen week semester and instructional minutes required to earn credit hours. While State Regents' approval is required to reduce the number of academic weeks in the standard semester, Statehood Day may be accommodated through the "3.19.5 Competency-Based Learning" section of the calendar policy which states, "....There are alternatives to reliance on a time-in-class as the basis for determining academic credit-hours earned. The achievement of academic credit-hours should be linked to demonstrated student learning either through regular class assignments and evaluations or demonstration of competencies. It is the responsibility of the faculty of each institution to translate student demonstrated competencies to academic credit-hours earned." Adjustments to academic calendars may be made, or, since most institutional calendars are set, institutions and faculty may use discretion as described above. Please contact me if you have questions or concerns. Phil Dr. Phillip K.

Have an easy question for you. Do you have a policy on the reselling by faculty of their teacher copies or the unsolicited sample textbooks they receive in the mail? I had a person from Texas Book this week going to all the offices paying cash for books and some of the faculty got $200 to $400 and now the question is who gets the Money. Thank you.

Business Officers, Attached is the application packet for submission of real property projects to be financed under the expanded Master Lease Program authority created by the State Legislature in May of 2005. You will recall that the parameters authorized in the legislation state that projects must be valued at a minimum of $50,000 up to a maximum of $25 million and have a useful life of no more than 30 years. We will be collecting your submissions beginning February 1st through February 15th. Bond Counsel will then analyze your information and determine eligibility of your projects for participation in the submission to the State Regents at their March 28th meeting. It is expected that funding would be available in late May. The next round of Real Property submissions is tentatively scheduled for the January timeframe with funding available in May. Bond Counsel will analyze carefully all the factors that could impact an issuance and may require additional information based upon your initial application questionnaire. If this is necessary we will be in contact with you. Please let me know if you have additional questions and please return an application worksheet(s) for any real property projects you wish to submit for consideration before or by February 15, 2007. The attached appendix is to provide additional information to help educate you to the aspects of private use/management contracts and research agreements and their impact on bond issuances.
