V. CHM Faculty Survey; Attachment B

1. A CAC-led survey gathered faculty feedback on transparency and communication related to the One Team, One Health initiative. Over 500 CHM faculty participated. The survey was later shared externally, prompting media attention. Concerns were raised about potential bias, but CAC leadership reaffirmed that it was developed collaboratively by qualified researchers. Reports of intimidation and retaliation surfaced, prompting emphasis on faculty advocacy and safety. The President’s Office plans a special meeting with CHM faculty to address survey results and concerns. CAC will consider drafting a resolution, possibly in collaboration with COM.

 VI. Recommendation for new departments to be joint with COM

1. The CAC approved the creation of the new departments over the past couple years. Now it is being considered, and input is being asked about making those new departments joint with COM. There has been some interest from COM about joint departments but the CACs for both colleges would need to connect. Joint departments can sometimes be more difficult to run, but COM has funds that would better match with the new departments.

VII. Remarks/updates

1. Dean’s Update
   1. Info from the state is that the federal government is putting forward the Medicaid Expense Reimbursement Uplift funds. This is 13% of our operating budget and worth $6 million so it’s important to get it moving again.

   3. Drs. Wanda Lipscomb and Carol Parker emphasized faculty ownership of this process.
   4. Dr. Wendling recognized the success and power this CAC has had, especially regarding the recent faculty survey that was sent out regarding one team one health.

   2. Accreditation Task Force Charge & Work
      1. The President’s One Health Steering Committee (in May) tasked Stacia with chairing the Accreditation Task Force (4 members).
      2. The team examined:
         1. Whether a one-college model could meet LCME and COCA requirements.
         2. Alignment of standards across LCME, COCA, ARC-PA, and accreditors for the proposed College of Health Sciences/Nursing.
   3. Six Accreditation “Hard Lines” (Non-Negotiables)
      1. These areas cannot be merged or shared across MD/DO programs:
         1. Distinct Deans with Independent Authority for MD and DO programs.
         2. Separate Learning Environments prioritized for each program.
         3. Program-Specific Budget Control and clear financial accountability.
         4. Autonomous Curriculum Governance (separate committees, no undue cross-program influence).
         5. Distinct Faculty Lines & Reporting Structures (faculty must report to their dean).
         6. Separate Admissions Structures for MD and DO.
      2. These requirements were communicated to the OTOH Council since May.
   4. Current Status of Organizational Models
      1. Several organizational charts were proposed.
   5. Substantive Change Requirements
      1. Any major structural, governance, or curricular change requires formal substantive change submissions to:
         1. LCME
         2. COCA
         3. Higher Learning Commission (HLC – university accreditor)
         4. All relevant programmatic accreditors for Health Sciences/Nursing
      2. Review timelines range 3–16 months.
      3. No public announcements can be made before accreditor approval.
   6.  Timeline
      1. Steering Committees aim to deliver recommendations to the President by November 26. The President will then deliberate; a decision may or may not support change.
      2. Only after a decision will accreditation submissions begin.
      3. Implementation cannot begin until accreditor approval is received.
   7. Budget and Research Requirements
      1. Deans must have authority over the full program budget, though this operates within MSU’s central budget allocations.
      2. COCA requires an osteopathic research portfolio, adequate research support, and protected time for faculty research—similar to requirements in other accredited fields.
   8. Faculty Reporting & Shared Departments
      1. Faculty must report to their program dean, typically via chairs.
      2. MSU’s existing shared department model is acceptable to accreditors and may serve as a template.
      3. Any change where faculty/clinical units report to an Executive Dean would require special approval from LCME/COCA.
   9. Faculty Input & Survey Data
      1. The Accreditation Task Force received survey results from CHM Faculty Senate and University Senate.
      2. Because of timeline delays, the Task Force did not complete its second charge (evaluating proposals) but reinforced its six hard lines to the Steering Committee.
   10. Concerns Raised by Faculty
       1. Risk of jeopardizing the recent LCME reaccreditation.
       2. Lack of clarity about:
          1. Number of administrative/staff positions in the new structure.
          2. How faculty affairs or clinical departments would report under the proposed middle-box model.
       3. Desire for transparency regarding resource implications.
   11. In summary:
       1. Stacia emphasized: No decisions have been made; structures continue to evolve.
       2. Accreditors’ interpretations guide decisions; MSU will not pursue any structure that threatens accreditation.
       3. Further questions can be collected and brought back to the Steering Committee.

      1. Guidance for the college’s annual Fall Plan has been received; the document is due end of January.
      2. The Fall Plan serves as:
         1. A showcase of major accomplishments and initiatives in the college.
         2. An opportunity to request additional funding.
      3. Additional initiative funding has been limited in recent years.
         1. Last year, the college highlighted hiring needs under the Global Impact Initiative; Nara successfully applied for several positions later in the year.
      4. The Fall Plan is also used to request funds for TLE (technology purchases) and A&I (alterations and improvements).
      5. This process provides a key opportunity to present college priorities to the provost and president.
   3. Research update – Nara Parameswaran
      1. Federal Agency & Grant Updates
         1. Federal government has reopened; NIH and other federal grant agencies are now operational.
         2. NIH study sections that were canceled during the closure will be rescheduled.
         3. Council meetings will likely also be rescheduled due to proximity to the newly rescheduled study sections.
         4. NIH issued a notice Friday with preliminary updates, more details forthcoming.
         5. Indirect Cost (IDC) rate updates uncertain:
            1. OMB may propose an 18% IDC (up from 15%).
            2. FAIR model (proposed by joint association groups) remains under consideration; beneficial for IDC recovery but creates administrative burden for post-award staff.
      2. VPRI (Vice President for Research and Innovation) Search
         1. VPRI search process is on schedule with Zoom interviews planned in the next few weeks. On-campus visits are anticipated in December.

      3. Budget Redesign Committee
         1. Brad Kline added to the working group—CHM representation successful.
         2. A new ad hoc committee for sponsored research has been formed.
         3. Nara and others from the CORD (Council of Research Deans) group invited to serve; more info to come.
      4. Grant Submission Concerns
         1. Increasing issue: students submitting grants without routing through the pre-award office.
         2. Recent examples:
            1. One proposal could not be submitted due to late notification requiring institutional signature.
            2. Another was acceptable only because no institutional signature was required.
         3. Faculty should ensure students are guided properly through the grant submission process.
         4. Foundation grant submissions have dramatically increased—one quarter exceeded the entire previous year.
         5. Foundation Relations staff are experiencing heavy workload; careful routing is essential.
      5. COI/COC Policy Updates
         1. Nara serves as CHM liaison for COI/COC policy changes.
         2. University merging COI (previously under OSP) and COC (previously under HR) into one unified policy, creating complexity.
         3. Initial proposal required disclosure of each peer review activity; CHM advocated against this, and the requirement was revised.
         4. Updated website and guidance table outline:
            1. Required disclosures
            2. Exceptions
            3. Activities needing prior approval
         5. Submissions must now be routed through Kuali.
         6. Applies only to paid faculty; no-pay faculty follow the COI policy and do not fall under COC.
         7. Colleges were asked to create individualized disclosure lists; CHM and others pushed back due to compliance concerns and the need for consistent university-wide policies.
         8. Harmonization efforts are ongoing.
      6. Additional Notes
         1. UCFA previously discussed COI/COC updates; appeals process delayed due to new union recognition and restrictions on direct dealing.
         2. Multi-college departments (e.g., Pharmacology & Toxicology, Physiology) complicate differing college-level policies—reinforces need for unified standards.
         3. Resources and updated materials available on the COI/COC website.
            1. https://cdm.msu.edu/resources/reference-guide.html
            2. https://cdm.msu.edu/resources/reference-guide/download
   4. Academic Affairs/Curriculum update – Andrea Wendling
      1. LCME accreditation letter was received, and CHM’s indeterminate status has been lifted.
      2. The college has been granted full accreditation for six years.
         1. Letter includes a 25-page list of follow-up items the college must address and report on by August 2027.
      3. Although work remains, the college will complete it under full accreditation with a long interval before the next site visit. Overall, this represents excellent news for the college.
   5. MPH Program Update – Robey Shah
      1. The Master of Public Health (MPH) program is fully online and primarily enrolls working professionals across Michigan. The program is fully accredited and currently undergoing reaccreditation review.

         1. Generalist
         2. Rural Public Health (new)
         3. Public Health Data Management & Analytics (new)
         4. Current enrollment: 160 students; (26 in Data Management & Analytics and 11 in Rural Health)
      3. Admissions review is underway for next year; strong interest noted in the Data Management concentration.

   7. CAC Chair update – Natoshia Cunningham; Attachment D
      1. University Council (Oct. 28):
         1. Loss of Title VI funding has reduced participation in the migrant educational program from ~50–60 students to ~30; additional funding support is needed.
         2. PhD programs: 11 programs have suspended new student admissions for next year, and 9 others are on hold due to federal funding issues, impacting fixed-term faculty teaching in those programs.
      2. Board of Trustees (Oct. 30):
         1. Natoshia presented One Team, One Health Faculty Survey results to the trustees
            1. Majority of faculty in CHM, COM, and Nursing do not support mergers; opinions are divided in Osteopathic Medicine.
            2. High faculty mistrust of the Office of Health Sciences noted; BOT requested copies of survey reports.
      3. Faculty Survey Resolution:
         1. A resolution summarizing survey concerns and proposed actions is being presented at the Faculty Senate meeting on November 18, 2025, at 3:15pm.
            1. The resolution reflects major faculty concerns about potential mergers and representation; it is primarily being submitted by Natoshia Cunningham.
            2. Feedback can still be submitted during the Senate meeting. The administration may or may not act on the resolution; its purpose is to formally communicate faculty priorities and concerns.
         2. Overall Notes:
            1. Survey intended to give meaningful representation outside existing One Team, One Health surveys and that faculty engagement and input remain a priority.
