ExplanationThe majority of time/cost is spent in direct contact with various state legislators and other state government officials, in coordination with the College's registered lobbyist consultants, defending the College's Associate Degree Nursing program. The College works to have state statutes and/or regulations changed or introduced to ensure that the College's Associate Degree Nursing graduates are eligible for Registered Nurse licensure in those states. A significant portion of cost/time is spent preparing materials to aid College Officials, in coordination with the College's registered lobbyist consultants, in educating government officials on the fact that Excelsior College graduates are as prepared for licensure as nursing graduates from more traditional programs. Time is also spent drafting proposed legislation that would ensure Excelsior College nursing graduates would receive licensure in various states.Explanation

F990_P06_S0A_L04Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 4Since the prior Form 990 was filed, several changes have been made to the Excelsior College Bylaws; votes can no longer be cast via email but must be in hard copy writing, and in the case of claims against Trustees and Officers, they will be reimbursed for legal expenses prior to a final ruling, if the ruling shows that the Trustee or Officer is not entitled to indemnification they must pay back the College. Trustee responsibilities were more fully spelled out, the following responsibilities are now explicitly stated - the Board has oversight over the College's accreditation status, student support needs, monitoring of the annual budget, hiring and maintenance of the workforce, acquiring and maintaining facilities, and evaluation of trustee performance. Additionally, the Treasurer must now serve as the Chair of the Budget and Finance Committee; the Investment Subcommittee is now a standalone Committee; no Audit Committee member can serve on the Budget and Finance Committee; and the Board Chair appoints members of Subcommittees and Task Forces. Changes were also made to term limits and the process for removing Trustees; Trustee Officer and Trustee Committee Chair maximum terms have been reduced from two three year terms to two two year terms, Trustees must serve on a Committee for one year before becoming a Chair of the Committee, Trustee Officers and general Trustees can now only be removed by a majority vote of all Trustees with voting rights, and a Trustee automatically resigns if they miss three consecutive meetings.
F990_P06_S0B_L11bForm 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11bThe form 990 was prepared by the accounting services department at the College. The information within the return was obtained through input from several Officers of the College. Following internal preparation of the return, it was forwarded to the College's independent auditors to seek their input before forwarding to the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees. The Audit committee was delegated the authority to review and approve the final version of the information return by the Board of Trustees. The Audit Committee reviewed the final return in depth via teleconference with the Officers of the College and the accounting staff. Management at the College guided the Audit Committee through the various schedules included in the filing noting the purpose of the schedule and identifying the origin and sources of the content contained within. All questions posed by the Committee were answered by the Management of the College as documented in the minutes to the meeting. The final return was made available for inspection and review to all Board Members before final filing with the IRS.
F990_P06_S0B_L12cForm 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12cThe College has had a written conflict of interest policy since June, 1998. This policy, as amended in 2008, is distributed annually to all Officers, Trustees, and other key employees each October. In addition to the policy, all officers, trustees and key employees are required to complete an annual disclosure statement indicating conflicts of interest and any direct or indirect professional and/or business arrangements with vendors with whom the College has a professional or business arrangement. Annually, the Audit Committee of the Board meets with General Counsel and the Secretary to the Board to review all disclosures and to determine the existence and severity of any conflicts. If conflicts exist, the Chairman of the Board is made aware of the conflicts and disclosures and the Secretary of the Board takes action as directed by the Audit Committee. Should the conflict exist at the Board level, full disclosure is made to all Board members and the affected member is recused from any vote related to the conflict of interest. Conflicts at levels below the Board are disclosed to the CEO, the VP of ODHR, and Legal Counsel to determine the impact of the conflict on the employees' ability to function in the affected role and take steps to resolve the conflict.

F990_P06_S0B_L15Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15In 2010, a comprehensive independent study of the President's compensation was conducted by an external consultant. This study, commissioned under the direction of the Board of Trustees, looked at comparative data from a competitive pool determined by the external consultant. This study was the basis for the employment contract with the College President, which was approved by the Board of Trustees. This contract is subject to renewal, extension, or termination every four years by the Board of Trustees. Additionally, the compensation of the President is reviewed annually by the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees. Each year the President and the Board agree to annual goals and the President provides monthly reports on the progress toward these goals. His achievements are the basis for an annual performance review conducted by the Executive Committee of the Board. All Board discussions are documented in the Board of Trustee meeting minutes. The Office of Human Resources establishes compensation within various grade levels at the College based on several factors such as the current local job market and hiring rate in our area, the demographics of the region including the degree of difficulty and competition in acquiring the particular talent. In addition, a compensation study was performed in 2011 by an external consultant that compared duties, responsibilities, and compensation for all job titles of the college, including the Executive Staff. The study gathered data at the national level as well as industry-specific data and job market information for our region of the country. Salaries within the organization compared against this data. In 2013, at the direction of the Board of Trustees, the Office of Human Resources completed an executive compensation survey through a consultant. The study assessed nine positions and made comparisons to comparable staff positions at 17 similarly situated institutions. The study had two objectives; 1.Determine if current pay levels are commensurate with peer roles at target institutions, and 2. Ensure that compensation is in line with Section 4958 of the IRS code. The results of the survey suggested that the College is safely positioned at all levels with respect to Section 4958 of the IRS code.
