Friday, October 12, 2012 Chairman Dan Erdman called the meeting to order at 10:05 am. Dan Erdman announced Ruth Brown was elected as a Trustee replacing Catherine Colyer. Action Items Revised Mission and Vision Statements Dan Erdman discussed the creation of Ad Hoc Committees, which are a response to the Union and Mark Guthier’s needs. They will work on special projects. There are currently four new committees: intellectual property, articles of incorporation and bylaws, MUBA mission/vision and key strategies and define duties and responsibilities for Board Leadership & Governance committee. Two ad-hoc committees have already done their work and will present proposals today. Those two groups focused on: Re-looking at the mission, vision and strategy Define duties and responsibilities for Board Leadership and Governance committee Sharon Hadary presented the proposed mission and vision statements. The committee included Sharon Hadary, Ruth Brown, Ann Prisland, Jim Wessing, Liz Preston and Dan Erdman. The full report is under tab 2 of the MUBA Fall meeting binder. The committee’s goal was to connect the statements to the Wisconsin Union, making it short, memorable and action oriented. Sharon Hadary mentioned that “vision comes from the heart” while “mission comes from the brain.” Sharon Hadary proposed that the new vision be stated as: “Support the Wisconsin Union as the heart and soul of a great University.” She proposed that the mission be stated as: “We support the Wisconsin Union by providing our expertise, life experiences, philanthropy and connections.” Sharon Hadary recommended the Trustees adopt the new vision and mission statements. Walter Pancoe MOVED. Jeff Kunz SECONDED. The motion was APPROVED. Board Leadership and Governance Roles and Responsibilities Last spring the Trustees approved the creation of the Board Leadership and Governance committee. The Executive Committee asked the existing Issues Committee to establish the rules and responsibilities of the newly formed committee and asked Ted Crabb to lead the Issues Committee in their work. The committee consisted of Miguel Guevara, Dan Erdman, Lynn Stathas, Mark Guthier, Ted Crabb and George Cutlip. They requested assistance from Sharon Hadaray and Rachel O’Leary who have experience in this area. They presented a draft of the rules and responsibilities at the spring meeting which were approved. The committee added to the draft which is included under tab 2 of the Fall Meeting binder. The document includes the role of the committee as well as the responsibilities of the committee members. Sarah Mathews asked how these rules will make MUBA more nimble. Ted Crabb responded that this is something that the committee can and should discuss; the committee needs to see if there are ways that it can become a more nimble administration. Sheryl Facktor MOVED to approve the roles and responsibilities of the Board Leadership and Governance committee. Jan Montgomery SECONDED. The motion was APPROVED.
Ted Crabb added that the Board Leadership and Governance committee will be reviewing and establishing rules and responsibilities for all standing committees. Board Leadership and Governance Chair The Issues Committee was also charged with recommending a chair for the Board Leadership and Governance committee. The committee recommended Sharon Hadary as chair. Ted Crabb introduced Sharon Hadary’s new book, “How Women Lead”. Ted Crabb proposed that Sharon Hadary be elected chair. Sheryl Facktor MOVED. Jan Montgomery SECONDED. The motion was APPROVED. Development Committee and Campaign Cabinet Restructure Mark Guthier presented a history of the development committee. The development committee came into its own during the director’s campaign in the 90’s and it was still active when Mark Guthier became director in 2001. At that time MUBA did not have all of the committees that it does now. The committee focused on stewardship and monitoring endowments, and did not focus on raising any money besides normal annual gifts. The additional MUBA committees were formed a few years later and the finance committee resumed responsibility for overseeing the Union’s endowments. It was later recommended that we have a major building campaign which is when the Union received our largest gift from students. Shortly thereafter, the Union decided to fund a development director to help finish out the campaign. A development director was hired who created structure and sub-committees. A campaign cabinet was formed which was aiming to find people from coast-to-coast to help uncover potential major gifts. There were a couple of Trustees on the campaign cabinet to bridge the gap between the Development Committee and the Campaign Cabinet. The development committee helped with the structure and process. Sheryl Factor clarified that the Development Committee was the group responsible for gift acceptance – what areas were eligible for naming, etc. The creation of the Campaign Cabinet left the Development Committee to focus on raising money around the Union family (Trustees, Associate Trustees, Hoofers, Directorate, etc.). Today, we are in the final stretch of fundraising for Phase 1 and looking forward to raising the funds needed to complete Phase 2. There is currently about a $20 million gap in funding. There has been a lot of grey and overlap, confusion in committee responsibilities. In order for the Union to be successful in our fundraising efforts, Mark Guthier proposed that the development committee return to their focus on the Union family regardless of whether a Cabinet exists and the Campaign Cabinet focus on larger gifts from across the country and help us identify potential friends to support our fundraising efforts throughout the building campaign. The Cabinet would fill out with a couple more Trustees/ Associate Trustees. Both teams would work in support of the development efforts established by the Institutional Advancement Team. Mark Guthier called for better definition of each group so they can work more efficiently. Jan Montgomery asked what the difference is between what is currently employed, and what is being proposed. Mark Guthier responded that the group has struggled with campaign cabinet principal gift discussions and the two groups have overlapped too much. He went on to discuss the fact that the development committee tends to go all over the map. He wants to distinguish which group is
responsible for what, and eliminate any grey areas between the two groups. Jan Montgomery said she doesn’t see the reason for the change. Ted Crabb said that he thinks the changes are a good idea, he said that we should divide the pie between campaign or major donors and normal day-to-day activities of the ongoing union family and the annual fund. The campaign committee cabinet will expire once the goal is reached. The development committee doesn’t have the capacity to deal with major fundraising. Ted Crabb finished by stating that each group needs to focus on a role. Ruth Brown said that this new plan would solve the issues with overlapping responsibilities and lack of focus. Lynn Stathas expressed concern that when implementation of this proposal begins, trustees will be removed from being included in looking at priorities which could lead to a loss of the involvement of trustees. She suggested that trustees and associate trustees be involved with the institutional advancement teams. Ted Crabb then asked if Lynn Stathas was suggesting that MUBA trustees oversee everything. Mark Guthier suggested he find a better way to represent the proposed changes. Miriam Boegel inquired about the process of appointing Trustees and Associate Trustees to the cabinet. Mark Guthier responded by saying that they will look for people who show an interest and represent a geographic diversity. Walter Pancoe asked who is responsible for the major gifts. Ted Crabb said that major gifts may come up from the development committee. Mark Guthier said that he and his team are writing the primary focuses for each group. George Cutlip asked about who would mediate between the two groups because boundaries can turn into conflict. Mark Guthier stated that there is a continuous loop between the groups and the Institutional Advancement Team (IAT) both offers support and needs support. Sheryl Facktor said that MUBA is a receiver and steward of money received; her problem is that there is no respect for the fact that MUBA plays a large role in receiving, stewardship and thank yous. The new proposal further removes MUBA. She went on to discuss that MUBA will always be trying to raise permanent gifs. When the campaign cabinet ceases to exist, the development committee won’t be left with much. She asked what has to change in the development committee for them to do the jobs they need to do. This new proposal limits the development committee’s chance of doing what they have to do. Ruth Brown said there is no further definition of boundaries, will this be done? Has it been done? She went on to say that it is difficult to see the whole picture. Mark Guthier said he just wanted to get on the same page regarding the primary responsibilities for the next four years, these can be expanded and there will be a transition plan. Sharon Hadary asked how the plan will actually play out and who is communicating between the groups. She said there needs to be a process for communication. Don Gray said that we have more than one unit that needs to work together to make everything work - all four of the units are necessary to work together to make things happen, each one is critical for success. Dan Erdman asked if Glenda Noel-Ney’s role will change. Mark Guthier said that Glenda Noel-Ney will be first focused on the campaign cabinet, secondarily focused on the development committee, and involved in the institutional advancement team. Ted Crabb said that Timeka Rumph will be more focused on the development committee.
Sheryl Facktor asked what is going to be done with this proposal and what will happen in regards to the roles and responsibilities of the trustees and associate trustees - these need to be voted on. Dan Erdman stated that voting on this is not in the by-laws of the group. He went on to say that this is an issue that can wait. The point is that the development committee is floundering while the campaign committee is in a better place. MUBA needs to support both groups. Jan Montgomery asked why this change needs to happen. Ted Crabb said that the group needs to identify more clearly what the role of the development committee is, there needs to be a change in the development committee function. The development committee will focus on the annual campaign and union family while the Campaign cabinet will focus on principle gifts. He went on to say that the roles and responsibilities for each of these committees needs to be developed. He suggested that these roles and responsibilities be refined and then brought back to the board for approval. Mark Guthier said that he will follow up with more narrative. Jim Wessing said that this is a good move and the responsibilities of the groups needs to be split, he supports it. Ruth Brown said that the campaign cabinet needs support to focus on big gifts. Sheryl Facktor said she always thought big gifts were the focus of the campaign cabinet, this document goes beyond that. She concluded by saying that a better diagram was needed. Zebradog Signature Signage Presentation Mark Guthier briefed the group on the signature signage project. The Wisconsin Union is interested in moving forward to have professional support to open a new wing with some branding and signage which will be at a different level than the past. Mark Schmitz from Zebradog Designs has been hired for the project. The ideas are not complete; the presentation is to seek initial reactions to the proposed signage for Memorial Union. The next step will be forming a small group of five to six to make recommendations to the finance committee about the size and scope of the project, and what role MUBA will play in this project. Margaret Tennessen introduced Mark Schmitz from Zebradog. Presentation by Mark Schmitz: The idea of this project is not to change the Memorial Union, but make it better. Zebradog is committed to retaining the authenticity of the Memorial Union. He is looking at key areas for renovation and creating a holistic plan that can be followed by pieces in the future. Some historical pieces are mandated by the State historical society-those will be included in the design plan. He wants to bring some historical aspects back into the space and create icons and consistency in the visual brand and design. Mark Schmitz stated that he wants to highlight all of the spectacular people and things that have been a part of the Memorial Union. He wants to design a system that will be a thread that holds everything together in order to better the brand experience. Mark Schmitz presented a number of ideas for donor recognition including:
• Buying the signature of a famous MU performer/visitor and placing that signature in a plaque on the wall
• Digital donor recognition • Media installations throughout the building
He recommended using MU assets to create a media experience.
Another goal is to create formal identities for each area of the Union-for example, steins in the Stiftskellar contained hidden messages which he and his team want to showcase. He also discussed developing a new name in order to resurrect the craft shop. The bottom line of his presentation is that he and his team want to bring out the magic in the Memorial Union. The feedback was positive. George Cutlip said the ideas were great, especially donor appreciation. Ted Crabb suggested having continuing and new displays with no stop time. Sheryl Facktor loved the idea of video displays, she suggested that the students get involved in this project so that they can self guide themselves through history. Walter Pancoe brought up the issue of visibility, stating that black and white is the most important aspect of signage and urged the design team to keep this in mind. George Cutlip inquired if the team had looked at cut metal signage. Mark Schmitz responded by saying that the cut metal signs will be used and he and his team are trying to enhance the deco qualities of the theater. Margaret Tennessen thanked Mark Schmitz for the presentation and commended him for maximizing all of the elements that are currently present in the Union. October 12th, 2012 Chairman Dan Eardman called the annual meeting to order at 1:37 pm Introductions: Dan Erdman introduced new staff member Timeka Rumph as the Member Relations Coordinator and liaison to the development committee. He went on to announce the student leaders: Sarah Mathews, Jose Cornejo, Tara Center and Courtney Severson. Ruth Brown and Sharon Hadary were introduced as the newest committee members. Agenda Review: Mark Guthier reviewed the schedule for the meeting. He stated that whichever committee meeting one chooses to attend this afternoon will be their assumed committee. Saturday, the group will meet back in the great hall followed by a construction tour which will be dependent on the weather. Both the director and associate director will give their reports. Saturday’s lunch will focus on innovation on campus, innovative program s at the Wisconsin Union and feedback form the various committees. After arriving at Union South, there will be a focus on Directorate activity, followed by a reception and keynote speech from Lori Berquam, and conclude the night with dinner. Approval of Fall 2011 Annual Meeting minutes. Sharon Hadary MOVED. Ruth Brown SECONDED. The motion was unanimously APPROVED. Chairman’s Report: Dan Erdman stated that this has been a very busy year; the executive committee has met several times and has made a great amount of progress. He is pleased that MUBA is becoming a “real bona fide group.” He stated that the list of MUBA actions has been approved. He went on to discuss some highlights of the year: In spring, it was approved that student employees could receive discounts on memberships which was proposed by the membership committee. Numerous Ad Hoc committees were created. One Ad Hoc committee reviewed and updated the mission statement and the values statement, which was approved by trustees last spring. A board leadership and governance committee was also created in order to define the roles and responsibilities of the committee by updating by-laws and articles of incorporation, the committee also looked at a possible name change for MUBA. A third
committee was created to look at issues regarding marketing and memorabilia opportunities. Dan Erdman went on to discuss the success of the Mendota Blue campaign. He mentioned that MUBA now has a website which includes a roster, biographies, listings, minutes, meeting packets and a webcam with live feeds of the ongoing construction. Dan Erdman stated that MUBA now has its own bank account, an endowment which is worth over $7 million that will be earmarked for many different things. The account is at an all time high-the cash account is at nearly $.5 million. He attributes this bump to Union South and the membership drive. Dan Erdman stated that MUBA is here to support the Wisconsin Union, and has the cash to do so. He encouraged the group to look at innovative ways that the money could be used in order to enhance the Wisconsin Union. The goal is not to build up the bank account, but to spend it on the Wisconsin Union. Review of values, vision and mission: Sharon Hadary stated that the exact process for development of the values and mission statement is available in tab one of the meeting packet. She went on to say that the goal of her committee was to stay true to the input received by MUBA members. Her committee wanted to present these as a package. Their process started by reviewing the values and discussing how these values play out in terms of the vision and mission, and how MUBA will behave consistently with these values. Sharon Hadary said that vision comes from the heart, therefore the new vision will be “Support the Wisconsin Union as the heart and soul of a great university.” She then said that the mission comes from the brain, so the mission will be “We support the Wisconsin Union by providing our expertise, life experiences, philanthropy and connections.” She took note that these are no longer proposed, the trustees approved of them this morning. The committee focused on delivering the new mission and vision. The vision for the committee is to ensure MUBA shows responsibility and legality to the Wisconsin Union. Nominating Committee Report: Michael Brody presented the report for the nominating committee and described the actions taken since last meeting. He reviewed that Sheryl Facktor be reappointed to the executive committee. All actions have been taken and approved by the trustees. He went on to discuss issues with Ad Hoc governance: certain structural issues such as numbers and division; continuity by the nominating committee, developing a better definition and criteria for trustees vs. associate trustees and looking for people who fill particular needs, and standardizing information collected from nominees. He suggested looking to the board leadership and governance committee for support. Union Council Report: Jeff Haupt stated that so far, they are a great group of student leaders. He credits the council for ensuring that the group remains strong. He said that the directorate is group of cohesive leaders and they have a great relationship with ASM. He went on to say that there are exciting things happening with Union Building updates which will be given by Mark Guthier. MUBA Website Walk Through: Sharon Hadary stated that the website has been a true collaboration between MUBA committees, volunteers and staff. Margaret Tennessen noted that there are instructions for the MUBA website listed in tab 2 of the meeting packet. She went on to discuss that everyone has access to the website. Highlights of the website are access to the packet, handbook and roster section, the ability to post new materials, actual records and history. Additional links can be added, and feedback is greatly appreciated. Margaret Tennessen noted that this is a work in progress that depends on the feedback of members. Jeff Haupt asked who suggestions should be sent to. Margaret Tennessen responded by saying that suggestions should be sent to Timeka Rumph.
Resource Skill Directory Overview: Sharon Hadary introduced the new Resource Skills Directory which is available on the MUBA website. Two years ago, there was a discussion regarding whether or not MUBA had the skills it needs for the future. A skills inventory group was assembled who interviewed staff, chairs, etc. about what skills we will need for the future. The group then turned to MUBA to ask what skills we already have. The group decided there has to be a way to make the resources available because the group as a whole is a great tool. A directory was created as a part of the MUBA website outlining the skills and resources the members have to offer. Sharon Hadary noted that this is a soft launch of the directory. Every member can log in, however, the group wants to make sure the directory really works before opening it up to everyone. There are different search methods, including finding people by skill which is very useful. Currently, not all profiles are complete. The group urges everyone to reply and get involved. They would also like the students to know about this directory so they can use it in the future. Sharon Hadary would like everyone to use it, tell people about it, and give feed -back so the group can re-evaluate the directory in a year. Jeff Haupt mentioned that members will also be able to search WUD Students, and he suggested that a linkedin profile connection should be added to the directory. He went on to say that we need to share with each onther so we can see who is doing what and how we can collaborate. Rachel O’leary asked if e-measuring modules could be involved. Ruth Brown asked about the link, username and password settings. Margaret Tennessen said the password will be the common MUBA password, however, if you suggest something different, send the suggestion to the technology committee. She also noted that MUBA students have access to the directory. Sharon Hadary finished by saying that the directory will allow us to fulfill our mission and vision. Fall 2012 Meeting Date: Dan Erdman proposed two meeting dates. The first is the weekend of the homecoming football game, the second proposed weekend has no football game. It also needs to be decided if the meeting will be Thursday/Friday or Friday/Saturday, this issue is especially important for the home football weekend. Ruth Brown suggested having the meeting during another home game where there will be less of a crowd on campus, however, she still would prefer to come during a home football weekend. Jeff Haupt stated that he thought the football weekend was fine as long as the members were able to participate in homecoming activities. Paul Davidsaver noted that he was concerned about overextending the staff. Over all, members believed that it is too much to have it during homecoming so they requested to receive information about potential meeting dates in November. The issue was to be revisited later in the weekend. It was later decided that November 7-9 would be preferable. Next year’s fall meeting will occur November 7-9, 2013.

REPORT OF THE NOMINATING COMMITTEE
This fall, the Nominating Committee was asked to develop a slate of new and incumbent
Associate Trustees for MUBA. We learned that the following Associate Trustees had stepped
down, or had asked not to be re-nominated: Judith Crain, Roger Howard, Karen Johnson
Mathews, Marty Meyer, Jim Norton, Vinod Sahney, and Kate Young. We thank them for their
service to the Union.
New Associate Trustees. The Nominating Committee put out a call for candidates to
serve as Associate Trustees. We received nominations of highly qualified candidates from
Trustees, Associate Trustees, and Union staff. The Nominating Committee met on September
27, 2013. All members of the Committee participated, either in person, or by telephone. In
addition, Mark Guthier, Timeka Rumph, and Lori DeMeuse participated in the meeting. A
robust discussion took place concerning the process for nominations, the needs of the Union, and
the qualifications of the potential nominees. Based on that discussion, and additional follow up
and communications among members of the Committee, the Nominating Committee
recommends to the Executive Committee that the following individuals, all of whom would be
willing to serve, be proposed to the membership as new Associate Trustees:
Leslie Dinauer
Ted Gekas
Shayna Hetzel
Carol Ward Knox
Christian Krautkramer
Glenda Noel Ney
Tristan Sather
Andrew Wallmeyer
2 2237760.1
We also considered the suggestion that Henry Elsesser, now an Emeritus Trustee, be
named an Associate Trustee. Henry was a valued Trustee of MUBA who asked to transition to
emeritus status due to other commitments that prevented him from spending time on Union
endeavors. We reached out to Henry, who stated that he would like to continue his relationship
with the Union, and would consider returning to Associate Trustee status, but that he was not
able to commit the time necessary to do the job. We look forward to his continued role with the
Union.
Re-nomination of Associate Trustees. In addition to the nominees to be new Associate
Trustees, the Nominating Committee re-nominated the following incumbent Associate Trustees,
each to serve an additional term, expiring 2019, as Associate Trustees:

Based on communications of staff, we understand that all of these candidates are willing to serve
another term.
REPORT OF THE NOMINATING COMMITTEE INITIALLY PRESENTED TO THE BOARD LEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE
As a result of going through the process for nominating Associate Trustees in 2013, and
based on discussions of the Nominating Committee concerning that process, the Nominating
Committee wishes to raise the following topics for your discussion and consideration. We
initially presented these suggestions to the Board Leadership and Governance Committee, and
hereby forward them to MUBA.
1. Do we want to advise potential nominees that they are being considered? In the
nominations process, nominators often reach out to the potential nominees to gauge their interest
in serving. This provides useful information, and allows us to limit our consideration to those
candidates who are interested in serving. In addition, speaking to potential candidate allows us
to gather information about their prior Union experience, or other relevant information relating to
their skills or experience that might be of particular use to the committee beyond the information
that is contained on the nomination form. This process creates a potentially awkward situation,
however, in the event the Nominating Committee chooses not to nominate a candidate. While
we believe we can deal with this awkwardness by advising the nominee that it was an honor to
be considered but that the nomination is not going forward at this time, and we invite the
candidate’s continued participation (see item 4 below), members of the Committee questioned
whether it would make more sense not to reach out to the potential nominee until later in the
process. Perhaps we could implement a two stage process – an initial call for confidential
nominations and discussion among the Committee members as to qualified candidates, followed
4 2237760.1
by a process of reaching out to the potential nominees in order to develop a slate. In any event,
we thought this topic would merit further consideration by your group, and guidance.
2. Some of the nominations still lack sufficient information to allow the Committee
to evaluate the candidates. In the future, we intend to invite nominators to act as advocates for
their nominee. Nominators should be advised that the nomination form may be the only written
information we obtain about the candidate, and therefore it should be complete, persuasive, and
advocate the strengths of the nominee. Other ways to address this issue is for staff or the
committee to pre-screen nominations and return incomplete nominations to the nominator for
more information. In addition, committee members could investigate nominations on their own
prior to the committee meeting.
3. While the Nominating Committee attempts to meet the perceived needs of the
organization in identify new Trustees and Associate Trustees, we continue to seek guidance from
the Executive Committee and other organizations within the Union as to the needs we need to
fill. If, in advance of the nominations process, the Executive Committee could identify to us the
particular skills the organization is seeking, that would assist us in evaluating potential nominees.
It would also help us in recruiting potential candidates.
4. This year, we declined to present to the membership certain candidates who had
been presented to us. In some cases, that was because the candidate had not had much prior
involvement, or certainly recent involvement, with the Union. We think it would be useful if
potential Trustee candidates were invited to participate in MUBA committees prior to the
nomination process. If we had active, non-Trustee members of committees, we would be able to
evaluate which individuals would make good Trustees or Associate Trustees. Perhaps as to
those individuals who were nominated, but not selected, the nominators can attempt to involve
5 2237760.1
the candidate in MUBA committee work to gain a greater appreciation of the organization and
for the organization to understand the strengths of the candidate.
5. The nominations process ordinarily operates on a two-year cycle. One year we
nominate Trustees; the next year we nominate Associate Trustees. This two year cycle could
inform the selection process. That is, in a year in which the Nominating Committee is presenting
Trustees to MUBA for consideration, we could invite the members to identify potential associate
trustees for consideration the following year. That would permit the Union, and the Nominating
Committee, time to involve the potential nominees in committee work, or otherwise explore their
involvement with the Union. In the following year, we would better be able to consider the
strengths of the candidates. This two year process would require some additional thought as to
the composition and tenure of the Nominating Committee, and may require some guidance from
the Executive Committee.
6. It may also be useful to discuss the role of staff in the nominations procedure.
The committee values the role of the staff in assisting the committee, and the committee could
not complete the process without the staff’s input. The staff has a wealth of information about
the past participation of candidates and their financial and other contributions to the Union. Still,
the ultimate decision of selecting candidates is for the committee, and the trustees. It may make
sense for the committee to meet with the staff for fact finding and consider whether to go into
executive session to discuss whether to advance particular candidates to the Trustees.
7. There is some ambiguity in the governance documents as to whether the
Nominating Committee has the power to nominate, or only to recommend nominations to the
Executive Committee. There seems to be different language pertaining to the nomination of new
6 2237760.1
Associate Trustees, as opposed to the re-nomination of continuing Associate Trustees. We
suggest that the language be standardized.
Respectfully submitted, Michael T. Brody For the Nominating Committee

MEMBERSHIP REPORT Fall 2013
Update from the membership program: Sales snapshot We ended FY13 approximately10% down in life membership sales compared to FY12. On the annual membership side, revenue is also down $15,201 from FY12. The decrease in membership sales is directly related to the decreased patronage we are experiencing in Memorial Union. Membership sales traditionally mirror building traffic patterns and traffic is down in Memorial Union because of the construction. Additionally, our membership sales are also tied to Mini Courses and Hoofers participation since guests have to be Union members to participate in those programs. Programming for both units has been limited during the construction and thus fewer people are buying Union memberships to participate. Overall, most life membership categories are down this year. Surprisingly, the one category performing better than usual is the recent alumni ($150) category. This indicates we might finally be rebounding from the effects of the 2009 rate change campaign that prompted many community members and recent alumni to pay off their memberships. The new joint life category ($55) has helped us pick up some new revenue. Since the soft launch last spring, we have sold 96 joint life memberships totaling $5280 in revenue. Soft launch tactics included adding the option to most of our applications and adding a registration page to the website. We will be executing a more formal launch of the program with a phased mass marketing campaign starting this fall through next spring. Tactics include a holiday campaign email series, direct mailer, social media campaign, on site promotion, and an appreciation event. We anticipate a healthy response from these efforts. As we look ahead, we are hopeful that membership sales will pick up as the west wing re-opens. However, without knowing what will transpire because of phase two of the Memorial Union Reinvestment, it is hard to know if the new construction activities will continue to affect traffic and sales. We believe there is a tremendous opportunity to launch a new member value program and run membership specials as the building project unfolds. Current initiatives: Department restructuring: The member relations department has expanded to absorb the strategic communications/PR functions of the organization. As a result, Marc Kennedy has joined our team and office. This move more closely aligns our communications efforts with our donor and institutional advancement activities. Our initial work is focused on developing a strategy to more proactively tell Union stories to donors, media, and other constituents. This will help support the Union’s development and outreach efforts by building awareness on campus and in the community about the Union mission. Member value project: We continue to discuss the topic of how to evolve into a twenty-first century membership program that is relevant, valuable, and better aligned with our mission as an organization. We are moving forward with a pursuing a model based on advantage versus access. We will be seeking external consulting as well as resources from the MUBA membership committee to help us develop pricing models and benefits that work across units.
ABE integrated database: Work continues on converting our membership data into the upcoming new integrated alumni and donor customer relationship (CRM) database. This project is spearheaded by UW Foundation and Wisconsin Alumni Association and we are excited to be representing the University in the first phase of this project. We look forward to having a more streamlined and sophisticated system that provides a 360 degree view of our members, donors, and friends. Anticipated launch date is May 2014. Corporate membership: We are working on a marketing campaign for current corporate members that is aimed at raising awareness of the benefits available to them and increasing their usage of their membership. Integral to the plan is soliciting feedback on the value of their membership, which will be essential in helping us develop a proposal to move the program from a pilot to a permanent program next year. Updates from the MUBA membership committee: The committee has been hard at work developing goals for the next 5 years that are aligned with the vision set forth by Mark Guthier and MUBA. Recent accomplishments: Joint Life membership: The committee collaborated with member relations department and members from MUBA exec to develop recommendations on adding a joint life option to the life membership program. The proposal was approved and joint life membership is now available for spouses or partners of life members. Tax deductibility verbiage recommendation: David Cross has been hard at work researching whether or not Union life memberships are tax deductible. Many of our members ask us about this and it would be a good point to be able to emphasize in our marketing efforts. This is a difficult task and David will be telling us what he found out and making recommendations on how to word a response at the committee meeting. Upcoming projects: Student employee membership recognition program: Now that the program has been in place for four semesters, the committee will be analyzing sales and process data and making recommendations on improvement. New grad membership rate: The committee will be exploring historical rate change data for the new grad category and developing recommendations on when to increase the rate and by how much.

MUBA Development Committee Update November 7, 2013
1 of 3
MUBA Major Gift Development Committee:
Mark Guthier, Kelly De Haven, Steve Cohan, Gregg Mekler, Campaign Cabinet
KEY DEVELOPMENT UPDATES:
Glenda Noel Ney accepted a new position at the Overture Center of Madison in May 2013.
Kelly De Haven was recruited to continue the fund‐raising for MUR project in July 2013. She
has been at the UW Foundation for 7.5 years. 5 years in Development for the College of
Engineering and the last 2.5 years working on behalf of WAA and fund‐raising for the Alumni
Park (AP) project. With the help of a great team effort at WAA, Kelly raised $6.5MM during
that time and will reach the goal for Phase I of the AP of $8MM by year’s end. As she has been
primarily focused on completing this goal this year, it was agreed when she came on board
with the MUR project that she would ramp up efforts for MUR in 2014 when the bulk of fund‐
raising for AP is completed.
Paula Bonner and Mark Guthier felt the merger of their development efforts and Development
Director was the optimal way to move forward and they are committed to working closely
together to complete both projects as scheduled. Mike Knetter, UW Foundation President,
agreed to help with major gift solicitations in this new configuration to accomplish our goals
on time.
Mark Guthier has been involved in the Concept and Design meetings for AP in order to
ensure a seamless flow between the two projects and their design.
Mark Guthier; Mike Knetter, CEO UW Foundation; Paula Bonner, President of WAA and
Kelly De Haven met in August to discuss the Campaign goals and funding timelines.
Outcome was to create a gift pyramid that combined new donor opportunities for both WAA
and MUR. The purpose was to solicit major gifts as part of a unified Lakeshore campus
project.
As final costs and new project developments emerged through facilities management
scheduling deadlines and state building commission requirements, Paula, Mark and Mike met
with the Provost, Building Facilities, and other UW leadership to confirm the University’s
commitment to support MUR/AP’s fund‐raising before we met with the State Building
Commission in February. This occurred and was very successful.
Mark also received Mike’s support of the updated costs to complete the MUR plan (additional
$3MM). Phase II of the Alumni Park (One Alumni Place remodel & redesign of entrance) was
approved by WAA Board of directors for an additional $1.5MM.
MUBA Development Committee Update November 7, 2013
2 of 3
The following is a breakdown of MUR and AP project costs and monies raised to date:
Project Total Cost Monies Raised
Left to
Raise
MUR Total Cost $98MM $10MM ‐ Underground loading dock ‐ anonymous donor $13.5MM
$56MM ‐ covered in Student Fees
$14.5MM ‐ raised in donor gifts and pledges
$4MM ‐ through other MU revenue resources
Alumni Park $8MM $8MM ‐ Raised in donor gifts by end of 2013 $0MM
One Alumni Place $1.5MM
Remodel Alumni Visitor Center & New Entrance to
Alumni Park $1.5MM
Total cost $109.5MM $15MM
Gift Pyramid and Updated Donor Recognition Opportunities: Kelly, Mark and Paula
developed a combined gift pyramid, incorporating new major donor recognition opportunities
to complete the $15 MM still needed to complete these projects. They will collaborate with
Mike and peer alumni to develop action plans, meetings and solicitations for these major gifts.
(please see attached documents)
Included in the Gift Pyramid are fund‐raising goals from smaller donor campaigns (e.g.
Theatre Chair, Hoofers, etc.)
We are also benchmarking and working with JJR on a “Brick” naming campaign along
sections of the Terrace and the front Plaza’s. This will hopefully be rolled out in the summer of
2014. We are considering a combined mass marketing campaign that will include a menu of all
of these smaller naming opportunities as a way to refresh Hoofers and Theatre campaigns and
introduce brick campaign as an additional new opportunity. There are efficiencies and cost
savings to this approach.
Steve Cohan, Gregg Mekler and Tom Sylke are working with David Zucker on creating a
potential MUR promotional short video
Greg Mekler continues to develop a guest lecture series for leading MU alumni at WUD
ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES:
Kelly will consolidate MUR and AP Prospect Portfolios into one “scrubbed”, vetted and
updated portfolio to work off of. Active prospects will be identified in Gift Pyramid and action
plans will be developed for each. Unit designations (MUR or AP prospects) will remain.
Kelly will coordinate with MU staff and UWF Planned Giving to further promote deferred
gifts to WU.
MUBA Development Committee Update November 7, 2013
3 of 3
Kelly and Walker Crawford will work with staff from both WU & WAA, and UWF colleagues
to develop comprehensive stewardship plans for existing donors, and regular and customized
outreach scheduled throughout the year to various donor groups. Will explore special annual
events for MUR donors as part of ongoing Stewardship.
Kelly will collaborate with staff in Outdoor Wisconsin and Theatre in soliciting major donor
support for these programs.
Kelly will work closely with MUBA Trustees, MUBA Development Team and Campaign
Cabinet Members to continue to identify and solicit major donor prospects.
Planning has begun for a university‐wide capital campaign scheduled to launch 2015‐16
academic year. Chancellor sees 85% of the campaign priorities coming from school/college
constituent level. Kelly recommends that the WU and WAA consider themselves constituent
entities and should develop priorities and campaign goals to include in the campaign
planning phase. All gifts and pledges made after July 1, 2013 will count toward the campaign
goal.

TO: MUBA Trustees, Associate Trustees, and Emeritus Trustees FROM: Susie Younkle, Finance Committee Chair RE: MUBA Finance Committee Report DATE: October 23, 2013 Here’s an update on items addressed by the finance committee since the Fall 2012 MUBA annual meeting. Actions Taken at January 22, 2013 and May 2, 2013 Finance Committee Meetings: * Signature Signage Funding Request – Recommended approval of $85,000 (in addition to $38,000 previously approved but unused for MUR conceptual signage work) to fund Zebra Dog signature signage for the Memorial Union Reinvestment, Phase 1 – West Wing. *Union Theater History Project Funding Request – Recommended approval of up to $8,000, to be split between a writing/research fee for Michael Goldberg and web design & digital interface creation. This project is being undertaken in preparation for the 75th anniversary of the Union Theater and its reopening in 2014. *Employee Motivation & Recognition Commitment – Recommended an annual increase of $3,000 + a 3% annual inflationary increase (for a total of $7,500 this year) to be used for Wisconsin Union staff gatherings. *Hoofer Stable Mortgage Prepayment – Recommended approval of an additional commitment of $18,000 per year ($1,500/month) to be used to pay down the principal on the Hoofer Equestrian Center mortgage with UW Credit Union. The finance committee will review this amount annually. *US Bank Checking Account – Authorized an upgrade of MUBA’s checking account in order to reduce fees and slightly increase interest earned on the balance. All commitments listed above were approved by MUBA’s Executive Committee subsequent to Finance Committee review. Actions Taken at February 4, 2013 MUBA Executive Committee Meeting: Although the following actions were undertaken directly by MUBA Exec at its February meeting, the actions involve funding requests: *Terrace Furniture – Approved $18,500 to purchase terrace chairs to expand seating on and near the Terrace. *Revelry Music Festival – Approved $25,000 for a new student‐led music festival in early May 2013. Hoofer Stable Mortgage Payments to MUBA: As referenced above, MUBA is the mortgagee on the Hoofer Equestrian Center loan. Previously, the Riding Club reimbursed MUBA for the full monthly payment of principal and interest. Tom Smith presented a proposal (which was approved) for MUBA to accelerate principal payments on the mortgage in order to save interest expense. MUBA’s accelerated loan payments will be coupled with a restructuring of the Riding Club’s repayment schedule; in particular, increasing the Club’s loan term to as long as 35 years. Amounts that the Riding Club saves through lower mortgage payments to MUBA will be put into a special contingency fund for unexpected repairs and capital expenses. The finance committee authorized the creation of a sub‐committee to meet with appropriate Hoofer student leaders and advisors to establish and define responsibilities of MUBA and the Riding Club and to negotiate a memorandum of understanding that includes a monthly contribution to a reserve fund. Designated finance committee members will then present the draft MOU to the Finance Committee for approval. Financial Results: See MUBA’s financial statements and notes to the financial statements for detailed information about financial results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. Additionally, the finance committee reviews quarterly reports of fund performance at UW Foundation. Let me know if you’d like a copy of the most recent report.

FINANCIAL NOTE H- 1 -
Notes to the June 2013 Financial Statements of the
MEMORIAL UNION BUILDING ASSOCIATION
10/22/2013
The following notes are provided to supplement the June 2013 financial report of the Memorial
Union Building Association (MUBA), which follows a modified cash method of accounting.
All financial statements reflect the auditor’s opinion that funds held by the UW Foundation no
longer be included in MUBA’s financial statements. Rather, these funds will be reported in the
financial statements of the UW Foundation.
The uncommitted earnings (loss) shown on the income statement reflects the recognition of all
income received, expenses incurred, as well as any restrictions against income and expense
designated by MUBA. Uncommitted earnings (loss) represent an increase or reduction in
accumulated funds available for new commitments.
This report highlights significant revenue sources and expenditures during the fiscal year
ending June 30, 2013.
INCOME STATEMENT
REVENUE
1. Membership Revenue $197,942
Life membership sales revenue decreased by $22,792 from last fiscal year. This is
largely due to the construction in and around the Memorial Union which has
significantly reduced building traffic counts. A new type of membership was
introduced this year, the spouse/partner joint life membership. A breakdown of the
membership categories are as follows:
2011-12 2012-13
Graduating students within first year 2,289 1,919
Recent graduates within two to five years 153 175
