Form 990, Part I, Line 1, and Part III, Line 1Mission StatementSimmons College exists to educate, empower and transform the lives of its students, preparing them for leadership in the professions, in their communities, and in the world. Simmon's enduring commitment is to provide an exceptional higher education experience that distinctively integrates theory and practice; academic excellence in the liberal arts and sciences combined with rigorous professional training. Simmon's history is rooted in visionary thinking and social responsibility; our mandate to prepare undergraduate women for professional success and meaningful lives remains at the core of our mission. Our graduate schools serve women and men who are passionate about learning, leading, and making a difference in their professions. Simmons students graduate intellectually equipped, professionally skilled and technologically proficient for cutting-edge careers that address our global society's greatest challenges and unmet needs, today and in the future. Form 990, Part III, Line 4c Academic Support and Student Services: Includes expenditures for activities that support and enhance the student's education, as well as contribute to their emotional and physical well being. Included in this category is the College library which houses over 224,019 bound books and periodicals, 49,000 full text e-journals, 161 electronic databases, and over 1,200 print periodical subscriptions. During fiscal year 2010, book circulations provided to students from the Simmons library totaled 46,371 while circulations of e-Reserves totaled 38,105. Also included in this category is the College's health center whose staff handled over 5,879 student/patient visits during fiscal year 2010. Another component of this category is the Office of Career Educational Services which had 3,612 student contacts during fiscal year 2010 through multiple channels such as career coaching, in-class workshops, recruitment activities and career fairs. Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Other Program Services are comprised of sponsored research and work study, auxiliary operations, and miscellaneous program service expenses.
Form 990, Part VI, Lines 6 & 7aSimmons currently has 57 Corporators (The Corporation): 37 members of the Board of Trustees plus 20 additional members serving as a consultative body to the President and Board of Trustees, and as non-voting members of five Board Committees. The Corporation's primary duties are to elect annually the Trustee membership and amend the Simmons College By-Laws. Form 990, Part VI, Line 11 The Form 990 is prepared and signed by PricewaterhouseCoopers as paid preparer. The Form 990 is reviewed with the audit committee, and the compensation sections of the Form 990 are reviewed with the compensation committee. The Form 990 is provided to the Board of Trustees prior to the Form's filing with the IRS. Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c In its conflict of interest disclosure form the College asks all trustees and officers to declare any conflict of interest. Completed Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statements are reviewed by the General Counsel and Secretary to the Board. The General Counsel prepares a written report for the Audit Committee which sets forth all disclosure or comments made by respondents concerning potential or actual conflicts and that report is presented to the Audit Committee, President and Board Chair for discussion and necessary follow-up each year. At a minimum, those with conflicts are instructed to refrain from voting on matters where there are or may be perceived to be a conflict and to recuse themselves during any discussion of the issue. Form 990, Part VI, Line 15 The Executive Development and Compensation Committee is governed by a detailed Charter which grants it jurisdiction over compensation matters for all Simmons officers. The President makes salary recommendations for the officers each year to the Compensation Committee and the Committee reviews the performance metrics of the officers against salary data prepared by external compensation experts. The Committee then makes recommendations for officer salaries to the Board of Trustees for review and approval. Form 990, Part VI, Line 19 Simmons College financial statement are available upon request and are posted on the college's website. The college's governing documents and conflict of interest policy are available upon request. Schedule L, Part IV President Drinan is a member of the board of directors of Blue Cross Blue Shield.
