BRIGHT SPOTS FROM FY13
• Record amount of gifts pledged/received
ENROLLMENT CONTEXT
• Record number of undergraduate applications in 2013
• Colleges, companies interested in partnering with us
• Opportunities have never been greater• But…there is a disconnect between
demand and the reality of our enrollment
• State support is not likely to increase• President Kaler has promised to reduce
administrative costs by 15M per year• More local competition for our programs
– Dunwoody– St. Kate’s
• Enrollment drops in CLA & CEHD– Impacts course enrollment
• Minimal flexibility in raising tuition– We can’t solve this by raising professional tuition
35%
ENROLLMENT CONTEXT
2013-2014 ENROLLMENT
• Total enrollment: 1576• Drop in enrollment within majors (-7%)
– 105 fewer UG students– 6 fewer graduate students– 8 fewer professional students
• Drop in course enrollment (-5.6%)– 305 fewer registered seats– 1053 fewer student credit hours
FY 14 REVENUE IMPLICATIONS
• Tuition target is $18,116,507
• Summer/Fall tuition is $9,140,797 – 50% of target
– That’s a 5% drop from normal fall tuition revenue
• If spring tuition is also down 5%, total tuition shortfall could reach $1,500,000
COLLEGIATE FEES
5-7% drop in tuition also means 5-7% drop in collegiate fees
Estimate $60,000 drop in fees revenue
Collegiate fees pay for all or part of the following services:– Computer labs– W.L. Hall Workshop– Imaging labs– Digital Collections
and Archives– Student Services– Goldstein Museum
of Design
FISCAL YEAR 2015
• If this is the new normal, we will need to reduce the budget by $1,500,000 with recurring cuts and/or increase revenue
– That’s 5.8% of total O&M budget
• Potential/possible cuts from Central are above and beyond this figure

CDES Innovation Lab as part of “New Northrop”- timeline
Spring 2013
Northrop is awarded a grant (EMC arts) to focus on their reinvention with their 3 other resident units: The University Honors Program, the Institute for Advanced Study, the CDES Innovation Lab. Teams assembled, EMC Arts facilitated meetings held on campus.
Summer 2013
Week long off site session for New Northrop team, facilitated by EMC Arts. This led to the team selecting “Pop Up Northrop” as a way to create new DNA for collaboration and to prototype ways of thinking and making new work together.
Fall 2013
First Pop-Up event held September 4: Light Plays, a performance, participatory video piece projected across the Northrop façade.
Pop-Up events will continue this fall outdoors.
Rebecca Krinke is piloting the role of a “CDES Northrop Fellow”, one of many possibilities for our work in/with New Northrop.

Questions include: criteria, process, relationship to other 3 Northrop resident units, numbers of CDES fellows, duration of fellowship, role of lab space itself. Course release? etc
CDES Northrop studios or classes
CDES faculty propose why their studio or class should be based in Innovation Lab. Or if not physically based there - but uses the Northrop building and ideas in expanded ways.
CDES Innovation Lab Team w/New Partnerships
Teams of faculty/staff find a new partnership outside the University (from industry, a non-profit, etc) to address an issue of their choice in an “innovative way”. Manifest this work in the community (?), etc
New Northrop yearly theme
All 4 Northrop resident units engage collectively/individually with the same yearly theme. The Innovation Lab is where CDES explores / manifests our College’s work on the theme.
Proposals from community
Proposals come from outside/community/public to use Innovation Lab with UMN faculty and staff providing expertise: like a start-up, incubator space.
