UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA
BOARD OF VISITORS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
BOARD MEETING:
May 22, 2012
COMMITTEE:
Finance
AGENDA ITEM:
I.
2012-2013 Operating Budget
BACKGROUND: At its May meeting, the Board of Visitors considers
the proposed operating budgets for the Academic Division, The
University of Virginia's College at Wise, and the Medical
Center. At its April meeting, the Board of Visitors approved
tuition, mandatory fees, housing, and dining rates for 2012-2013
- which comprise significant revenue sources for the operating
budget. During this fiscal year, the Board of Visitors has
heard reports on the University’s budget requests to the state
and the preliminary budget assumptions for the 2012-2013
operating budget. Additionally, the Board of Visitors was
informed of the Governor’s 2012-2014 biennial budget proposal.
On April 6, 2012, the Joint Conference Committee of the General
Assembly released a compromise budget. After review and
possible amendment by the Governor, the final budget should be
approved by the General Assembly in May.
DISCUSSION: The 2012-2013 expenditure budget proposal for all
divisions of the University totals $2.6 billion, a 4.2% increase
compared with the revised budget of the previous fiscal year.
Of this amount, $1.4 billion relates to the Academic Division,
$1.2 billion to the Medical Center, and $36.3 million to The
University of Virginia's College at Wise.
Academic Division
The proposed Academic Division operating expenditure budget
will increase by 0.3% to $1.4 billion. The increase in the
operating budget is driven by increases in tuition, fees, state
general funds, and auxiliary revenues, which are partially
offset by the tapering-off of federal stimulus funds for
research. In 2012-2013, net tuition and fees (32.4%) provides
the greatest proportion of the operating budget, followed by
grants and contracts (22.6%), sales and services and other,
including auxiliary sales and services, investment income and
other miscellaneous revenues (12.4%), endowment distributions
(11.2%), state general funds (10.2%), and gifts (8.2%). The
remaining 3.0% of the expenditure budget will be funded from
1
operating cash reserves and accumulated investment balances.
Personnel costs comprise approximately 71.8% of educational
and general expenditures and 60.5% of total operating
expenditures in the Academic Division. The proposed budget
includes a reserve for the anticipated 3% bonus included in the
General Assembly’s adopted budget. Amendments to that budget
proposed by the Governor and to be addressed by the General
Assembly on May 14th may result in further discussion about
funding of the bonus and internal reallocation.
The 2012-2013 budget development cycle for the Academic
Division incorporated elements that are expected to be
principles in the new internal financial model:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Budget assumptions were developed earlier and in greater
collaboration with administrative leadership and deans;
Revenue from undergraduate enrollment growth is flowing
to the schools that generate it, aligning incentives as
the University grows;
New funding provided in the 2012-2013 budget is clearly
tied to the University’s strategic priorities;
Budget discussions were more open and frequent,
contributing to a more transparent budget process and
greater awareness of the University’s strategic direction
and financial capacity;
Effective stewardship of the University’s resources led
to academic and administrative units looking within their
organizations to reallocate funds towards highest
priority needs; and
The budget document is more focused on the academic
enterprise.
Critical strategic investments in the Academic Division
budget are: modest progress on competitive compensation for
faculty and staff; the further implementation of goals from the
2011 Virginia Higher Education Opportunity Act including the
undergraduate enrollment growth approved by the Board in
February 2011; and ongoing investment in AccessUVa to attract
and retain a high quality, diverse student body.
The University of Virginia’s College at Wise
The proposed operating expenditure budget for The
University of Virginia's College at Wise will increase by $1.7
2
million, or 4.8%, in 2012-2013. State general funds will
increase by 9.3%; at the same time, net tuition revenues are
increasing by 2.8%. Grants and contracts will decrease by 17.3%
and sales and services, including auxiliary sales and services
revenues, will increase by 10.3%. Key strategic priorities
addressed through this budget cycle are increasing student
retention, improving graduation rates, and focusing on Science,
Technology, Engineering, Math, and Health (STEM-H) offerings.
Medical Center
The Medical Center operating expenditure budget is proposed
to increase by $99.0 million, or 9.0%, to $1.2 billion during
2012-2013. The operating margin is expected to be $58.6 million
or 4.7%.
The budget presentation will include a proposal to increase
hospital room rates and ancillary service charges between 7.0
and 9.9% and to enhance personnel compensation packages. The
pay-for-performance pool has been established at $8 million,
which includes the impact on benefit costs and is based on a
3.0% salary adjustment with an October implementation date.
Other salary adjustments, such as market adjustments, total $5
million, including the impact on benefit costs. The
Transitional Care Hospital’s operating ($18.8 million in 20122013) and capital ($1.6 million in 2012-13) budgets are
consolidated with the Medical Center’s budget.
For the Medical Center, the 2012-2013 operating plan was
developed through a priority-based budget process to align
resource allocations with Medical Center strategies and goals to
achieve the Health System strategic planning goal to become a
top decile academic medical center. The operating plan was
developed while considering the challenges of providing patient
care, teaching, and research services in an increasingly dynamic
health care industry. The full impact of the Accountable Care
Act will not be realized until 2014-2015; however, a number of
its provisions have already had an effect. The impact will be
decreased reimbursements from government payors and an industrywide erosion of pricing power with private payors. At the same
time, costs associated with providing quality patient care will
continue to experience upward pressure due to increases in
medical supply, pharmaceutical and medical device expenses, as
well as a shortage of health care workers. These changes
require careful fiscal planning now to ensure meeting the
mission of the Health System in the future.
3
From the operating margin and from the capital reinvestment
plan, the Medical Center has set aside $20.0 million for the
Strategic Investment Pool to be used to fund future proposals
that best align the allocation of resources with Medical Center
strategies and goals.
For a full discussion of the budget proposal, as well as
comparative revenue and expenditure data for the Academic
Division, the College at Wise, and the Medical Center, please
refer to the budget summary, which accompanies this book.
Pratt Fund
In April 1976, the University received funds, designated in
the will of John Lee Pratt, to be used "to supplement salaries
of the professors of the Departments of Biology, Chemistry,
Mathematics and Physics, to purchase equipment for these
departments as suggested by the heads of the departments and
approved by the President and the Board of Visitors, and to
provide for scholarships in these departments for outstanding
students." Mr. Pratt’s will provides further that these funds
could be used "to support research in the School of Medicine and
to provide scholarships for medical students." The will
stipulates that the Pratt endowment reverts to Washington and
Lee University if the University of Virginia does not comply
with the provisions of the will. The original Pratt endowment
has been split into two equal endowments, with 50% of the
original principal assigned to the College of Arts and Sciences
and the remaining 50% assigned to the School of Medicine.
The market value of both pieces of the Pratt endowment is
$120.8 million as of February 29, 2012. In 2012-2013, a
distribution of $3.2 million from the College of Arts and
Sciences endowment and $3.8 million from the School of Medicine
endowment, for a total of $7.0 million, is recommended.
Additionally, the College of Arts and Sciences plans to use in
2012-2013 approximately $105,000 – funds that were allocated in
2011-2012 but will remain uncommitted by the end of the fiscal
year. Similarly, the School of Medicine plans to use in 20122013 approximately $293,000 – funds that were allocated in 20112012 but will remain uncommitted by the end of the fiscal year.
Committees in each of the schools developed the proposal to
spend the distribution, which is included as an appendix to this
document.

Each dean, the Vice President for Research, the Executive
Vice President and Provost, and the President are required to
indicate their support of these projects. The table below shows
aggregate allocations; the attachment describes the specific

Annual Renovation and Infrastructure Plan
Under Restructuring, the Board of Visitors has delegated
authority to approve all capital projects (acquisitions, capital
leases, or new construction or renovation projects costing more
than $2 million and impacting more than 5,000 gross square feet)
funded with non-general funds. To facilitate the consideration
of certain projects with no exterior impact, the Board of
Visitors considers the Annual Renovation and Infrastructure Plan
(ARIP) each year.
In the 2012-2013 Budget Summary, the Academic Division and
the Medical Center will present a detailed list of renovation
and infrastructure projects expected to cost between $2 million
and $5 million, to be funded with non-general fund cash (no
debt), and expected to be initiated within the next fiscal year.
This shorter, annual approval process allows these smaller
projects to be planned in a more appropriate timeline based on
the nature of the project. For example, renovating a lab for a
new scientist is a project for which the need will arise during
recruitment, and which must be completed before the scientist
joins the faculty.
5
The Academic Division’s ARIP totals $24.2 million to $30.0
million and includes renovations on the seventh floor of Old
Jordan Hall and several utility upgrade projects. All projects
will be funded from E&G maintenance fund cash reserves.
The Medical Center’s 2012-2013 ARIP Plan includes $7.6 to
$9.2 million in various renovation projects and infrastructure
upgrades. All projects will be funded from Medical Center
operating funds. Additionally, the Medical Center is authorized
to substitute a new project costing between $2 million and $5
million for a project included on the approved ARIP, provided
that the total capital budget as approved by the Board is not
exceeded and that a report is provided at each Board meeting
listing the changes made to the original project list.
ACTION REQUIRED: Approval by the Finance Committee and by the
Board of Visitors

APPROVAL OF PRATT FUND DISTRIBUTION FOR 2012-2013
RESOLVED, the budget for the expenditure of funds from the
Estate of John Lee Pratt is approved to supplement
appropriations made by the Commonwealth of Virginia for the
School of Medicine and the Departments of Biology, Chemistry,
Mathematics, and Physics in the College of Arts and Sciences.
Departmental allocations, not to exceed $7,000,000 for 20122013, are suggested by the department chairs and recommended by
the dean of each school; the disbursement of each allotment will
be authorized by the Executive Vice President and Provost. To
the extent the annual income from the endowment is not adequate
to meet the recommended distribution, the principal of the
endowment will be disinvested to provide funds for the approved
budgets.

COMMITTEE:
Finance
AGENDA ITEM:
II.A.1. Disposition of Real Property, Wise
County, Virginia, Stallard Property
BACKGROUND: Iloe Read Stallard devised (i.e., transmitted by
will) 39.7 acres to The University of Virginia’s College at
Wise. The property is subject to two restrictions, a life
estate in favor of Evelyn Stallard Smith and a right of first
refusal in favor of Eddie Buchanan. The life estate is limited
to a house and one acre of land located at 10748 Coeburn
Mountain Road. The beneficiary, Evelyn Stallard Smith, is
liable for all maintenance, repairs, and upkeep on the property
during the remainder of her lifetime. The terms of the right of
first refusal provide that Mr. Buchanan must respond within 60
days to any offer to sell the property to him on the same terms
and conditions as any other proposed purchaser.
DISCUSSION: The College has evaluated the property and accepted
the devise as required by Ms. Stallard’s will. A survey
commissioned by the College indicates the property consists of
approximately 44.7 acres, as opposed to the 39.7 referenced in
the will. Given the location of the property – approximately
four miles southeast of the College – the College has determined
it would be best to sell the property and use the proceeds to
create an unrestricted endowment, the income from which would be
used to further the College’s strategic priorities. The College
requests permission to sell the property.
ACTION REQUIRED: Approval by the Finance Committee and by the
Board of Visitors

BOARD OF VISITORS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
BOARD MEETING:

COMMITTEE:

AGENDA ITEM:
III.B. University of Virginia Investment
Management Company Report on the Long-Term Pool
– Market Value and Performance as of March 31,
2012
ACTION REQUIRED:
None
BACKGROUND: The University of Virginia Investment Management
Company (UVIMCO) provides investment management services to the
Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia and its
related Foundations. Assets deposited in UVIMCO are held in the
custody and control of UVIMCO on behalf of the University and
Foundations within a long-term, co-mingled investment pool.
UVIMCO’s primary objective in managing the pool is to
maximize long-term real return commensurate with the risk
tolerance of the University. To achieve this objective, UVIMCO
actively manages the pool in an attempt to achieve returns that
consistently exceed the returns on a passively managed benchmark
with similar asset allocation and risk. Recognizing that the
University must attract outstanding students, faculty, and staff
and provide them appropriate resources, UVIMCO attempts to
manage pool assets to provide long-term real returns that
compare favorably with the returns of endowments of other
outstanding schools. UVIMCO does not set spending rates.
UVIMCO communicates the Pool’s risk and return estimates to the
University and Foundations for their consideration in setting
spending rates.
DISCUSSION:
The March 31, 2012 report follows.
Quarter-End March 2012
SUMMARY
The following commentary provides an update on the current
market environment as well as the asset allocation, performance
(unaudited), risk management, and liquidity position of UVIMCO’s
Long Term Pool as of and for periods ending March 31, 2012.
17
As our investors are well aware, the Long Term Pool’s
quarterly returns (and those of the markets) are volatile and
impossible to predict. The 7.1% gain recorded by the Long Term
Pool this calendar quarter is high, albeit not quite as lofty as
the 8.5% increase in our policy benchmark over the same time
period. Combined with losses recorded in the second half of
2011, our fiscal year-to-date return on the Long Term Pool is
3.6%, versus a fiscal year-to-date policy portfolio return of
1.9%. As always, we encourage readers of our investment reports
to focus on long-term returns. The Long Term Pool’s ten year
return of 9.5% exceeds the policy benchmark return by a healthy
3.0%.
Each spring, we estimate the future long-term return of the
Long Term Pool by adding the nominal expected return of our
policy portfolio together with expected alpha from manager
performance and portfolio tilts. This year, we adjusted our
long-term return forecast up from 7.5% to 8.0%.
The 50 bps
increase is partially due to the lower global equity prices and
higher real earnings that occurred in 2011. Equities
represented better value at the end of 2011 than they did the
year before.
We have a few observations about the 8.0% expected nominal
return for the Long Term Pool. First, assuming a 5.0% spending
rate and a 2.5% rate of inflation, the 8.0% return allows us to
produce growth in the Long Term Pool of 0.5% per annum. Next,
we note that profitable active management will be required in
order to grow the Long Term Pool in real dollars. Finally,
although our analysis underlying the 8.0% expected return on the
Long Term Pool is sound, there is much uncertainty surrounding
the inputs and this final estimate. We estimate approximately
2.5% of the return will come from future alpha, and increased
competition in the institutional investor space could hamper our
ability to deliver those results.
Also in the spring, we reassess and adjust our risk
management practices of the Long Term Pool. This year, we have
increased our focus on managing unfunded commitments, as they
represent the riskiest part of private investing. Going
forward, we will target the level of unfunded commitments at 15%
of the Long Term Pool, with a maximum unfunded commitment level
of 25%. We expect that over the next few years, this revised
target will reduce the market value of private investments from
its current level of 41% of the Long Term Pool to a long-term
equilibrium of approximately 30%, with the resulting capital
shifted to public investments. We believe these adjustments to
18
Pool allocations will reduce the liquidity risk of the Long Term
Pool without reducing the expected return.
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Investors celebrated the third anniversary of the March 9,
2009 low on the S&P 500 index by participating in the strongest
first quarter rally since 1998. The S&P 500 index returned
12.6% for the quarter, ending the period at a level of 1,408.
The index has increased 108.0% since its bottom in March 2009.
Other risk assets also had a good quarter with high-yield bonds
returning 5.3% and emerging market equities returning 14.1%.
U.S. Treasuries generated a 29.9% return in 2011 (as measured by
the Barclays Aggregate Long Term U.S. Treasury Index), but lost
5.8% during the first quarter of 2012. The markets were less
influenced by macro risks as economic conditions in the U.S.
appeared to improve and Europe’s deterioration seemed to slow.
Average cross-sectional return correlations across stocks
reached a high of close to 70% last September, the highest level
since the Great Depression. Cross-sectional correlations have
remained elevated since the 2008 meltdown, as security prices
have reacted more to macro news than company fundamentals.
However, average correlations have recently decreased, finishing
the quarter at 33% (still above the long-run average of 27%).
Although our active managers have done well over the past
several years, a period of lower cross-sectional correlations –
a stock picker’s market – should play to the strengths of our
managers who are less macro-focused and more focused on
investing at good companies at fair prices.
As the U.S. economy showed signs of strength, U.S. Treasury
yields increased modestly with the yield on the ten-year bond,
increasing 33 bps to 2.21% at quarter-end. At the Fed’s March
meeting, Chairman Ben Bernanke suggested that further easing
would be less likely if the economic news continued to improve.
This led markets to re-think the likelihood that short rates
would remain near zero until 2014, as was initially announced
last summer. Although Chairman Bernanke said he would watch
closely for signs of inflationary pressures, it is still widely
believed that the Fed is more focused on unemployment risk as
long as excess slack remains in the economy. Retail investors
continued to allocate more money to bonds despite the
historically low level of interest rates. During the first
quarter of 2012, a net $84 billion was invested in bond funds
(compared to $124 billion in the entire year of 2011) versus $2
billion of net redemptions from equity funds. Corporations
continued to take advantage of low interest rates. During the
19
first quarter of 2012, investment grade and non-investment grade
companies issued $350 billion and $90 billion of debt,
respectively, with both amounts exceeding the totals of the
first quarter of 2011.
In Europe, the ECB’s actions and the Greek restructuring
calmed fears of a European crisis. However, developments in
Spain, the euro zone’s fourth largest economy, rekindled the
market’s fears over the health of Europe’s southern periphery.
Spain’s poor debt auction reminded investors that the European
region is still fragile and will continue to represent a
potential risk to the global economic recovery. China’s
economic growth slowed in the first quarter of 2012 to an 8.1%
annual rate versus 8.9% in the fourth quarter of 2011. In
addition, the rapid growth of the real estate market started to
show signs of decline this year. In the first two months of
2012, the total growth rate of property sold dropped 20.9%. It
is expected that these downward trends could have an impact on
the global economy, in particular on countries that produced
materials used for construction in China.
PIMCO’s Mohamed El-Erian recently described the tug of war
he sees in markets between the impact of healthy corporations
and weak sovereigns. He believes that the risk of further
problems in Europe is fully priced into risk assets, but broader
geopolitical risks and the “fiscal cliff” in the U.S. are not
priced in and could derail positives occurring at the corporate
level. Since March 2009, S&P 500 operating earnings per share
have increased by 95%. However, revenues per share have only
increased by 1% during this time period. Earnings growth has
been driven by cost cutting and has resulted in record high
profit margins. The below average global economic recovery since
the Great Recession has contributed to a muted rise in sales
revenues.
Similar to 2012, equity markets started the last two years
with a strong first quarter. However, markets swooned during
the second or third quarters in each year, as markets switched
from focusing on the recovery in corporate profits to the macro
risks facing the globe. The recent two years of “sell in May
and go away” markets are making investors worry whether the same
thing will happen this year. The fiscal cliff referenced by
Mohamed includes the year-end: expiration of Bush tax cuts,
expiration of the payroll tax cut, healthcare tax increase,
automatic spending cuts and need for a further increase in the
debt ceiling (as described by Strategas Research Partners).
Markets have already started to weaken in April, as macro news
20
stories have been more mixed than they were in the first
quarter. Writing in this week’s Barron’s, Michael Santoli also
wonders whether the markets will see a replay of the last two
years’ mid-year weakness. He speculates that this year’s
“market bugaboo” could be the year-end “fiscal cliff,” and his
research indicates that the use of the term “fiscal cliff” was
up five times in April over March 2012. It is possible that
such political risks (which also include the 2012 U.S. and other
developed country elections) could pre-occupy investors’ minds
the remainder of the year, once again returning us to a macrofocused market that is often less kind to stock-pickers and
investors who focus most on company fundamentals.
ASSET ALLOCATION
Our policy portfolio continues to be an allocation of 60%
global public equity, 10% global public real estate, and 30%
global investment grade fixed income. This portfolio is
designed to provide long-term growth from equities, an inflation
hedge from real assets, and deflation hedge from fixed income.
The Long Term Pool’s actual allocation as of March 31, 2012
is 62.5% to equity managers, 15.0% to real asset managers and
22.5% to fixed income (including credit), cash and absolute
return managers. Looking through to our managers’ underlying
investments, the Long Term Pool has a 51.4% allocation to
equities, 16.2% allocation to real assets and 32.4% allocation
to fixed income (including credit) and cash as of March 31,
2012. Therefore, the Long Term Pool continues to be positioned
defensively versus the policy portfolio benchmark, with less
market risk. Our portfolio tilts remain unchanged: a relative
overweight to quality equities, a low duration bond portfolio, a
relative underweight to real estate, and a meaningful allocation
to natural resources.
PERFORMANCE
The Long Term Pool returned 7.1% in the quarter ended March
31, 2012 versus the policy benchmark gain of 8.5%. As expected,
Pool performance lagged the benchmark in the face of rapidly
rising equity markets. Fiscal year-to-date, the Long Term Pool
has returned 3.6% versus 1.9% earned by the policy benchmark.
21
EQUITIES
Public Equity
The public equity portfolio returned 15.5% in the quarter
ending March 31, 2012 versus 12.0% on the MSCI ACWI index.
Fiscal year-to-date, the portfolio returned 2.9% versus -0.6% on
global equities.
The portfolio continues to have a bias that favors larger
capitalization, higher quality companies and the emerging
markets. In some periods these tilts help performance versus
the global equity markets, and at other times they detract from
our relative returns. In the first quarter of 2012, emerging
market equities rose more than global equities, up 14.1% versus
12.0%. Fiscal year-to-date however, emerging markets
significantly trailed global equities, losing 7.6% in a flat
(i.e., -0.6%) global equity market. Over both time periods our
emerging market managers outperformed the broad emerging market
benchmarks. As we’ve said before, our emerging exposure with
long-only managers is less of an “emerging market story” and
more of a “manager story”. We have great managers who are able
to exploit inefficiencies in emerging markets by adding value
through active stock selection (although, again will
underperform benchmarks during certain periods of time). There
is not a perfect benchmark for quality, but one measure is the
Russell 1000 Growth index, which was up 14.7% in the first
quarter and 10.1% during the current fiscal year. This exceeds
the broad equity benchmark over both periods of time.
Although our recent performance was helped by our portfolio
tilts, we continue to believe that much of our success will be
driven by the stock selection skills of our managers.
Over the
past ten years, our public equity portfolio returned 12.0%
versus 5.9% on global equities. The portfolio tilts and the
stock selection skills of our managers have combined to produce
significant outperformance. It is unreasonable to expect
similar relative performance over the next decade.
Long/Short Equity
Long/short equity managers returned 9.0% for the quarter
versus 7.2% on the DJ Credit Suisse Long/Short Equity index and
12.0% on global equities. Fiscal year-to-date, our long/short
managers returned 6.6% versus -1.4% on the long/short index and
-0.6% on global equities. After a fallow few years of meager
spread between longs and shorts, we have been rewarded for our
22
patience. Many of our worst performing managers over the past
two years have been our best performers in 2012.
Over the past decade, the long/short portfolio returned
8.5% versus 6.8% on long/short index and 5.9% on global
equities.
Private Equity
The private equity portfolio returned 4.8% for the quarter
and 2.5% for the fiscal year, versus benchmark returns on the
MSCI ACWI index of 12.0% for the first quarter and -0.6% for the
fiscal year.
Buyout volume in the U.S. totaled $13 billion during the
first quarter, down 44% from the 2011 level of $23.6 billion
according to Dealogic. The number of deals decreased from 170
to 156 for the same period. While many market participants
expect deal activity to increase during the remainder of 2012,
the European debt crisis still represents a wildcard that could
dramatically impact the world economy. Buyout volume during the
quarter also declined globally to $31.6 billion from $43.5
billion for the same period in 2011, with the number of deals
also falling to 412 from 425. While deal volume is usually
lower in the first quarter than the rest of the year, the
figures for 2012 seem unusually low. However, an abundant
supply of credit in the U.S. and proposed changes in the capital
gains tax rate may accelerate sale decisions over the rest of
the year. In addition, many companies continue to carry large
amounts of cash reserves on their balance sheets, and
acquisitions are often a favored means for deploying cash. Over
the past few months, private equity firms have often utilized
sales to strategic buyers in order to exit portfolio
investments.
The buyout portion of the private equity portfolio returned
4.4% for the quarter and 1.6% for the fiscal year. The venture
capital portion of the private equity portfolio returned 6.9%
for the quarter and 7.2% for the fiscal year. For the ten-year
period, the buyout portfolio had a return of 14.7% versus 5.9%
for the index and the venture capital portfolio was flat.
Despite the slower pace of deal activity noted above,
UVIMCO received a healthy $58 million in cash distributions from
the buyout and venture capital portfolios in the first quarter
of 2012, almost three times the $21 million in capital called
over the same time period.
23
REAL ASSETS
Real Estate
The real estate portfolio returned 6.1% for the first
quarter of 2012 versus 11.6% for the weighted benchmark of
publicly-traded U.S. and international real estate securities.
Fiscal year-to-date, the real estate portfolio generated a
return of 6.8%, outperforming the benchmark by 3.0%. We funded
capital calls of approximately $80 million for the real estate
portfolio during the past nine months, bringing the real estate
allocation to 7.7% of the Long Term Pool. As the real estate
portfolio matures, it is emerging from an extended period in
which unfunded commitments to the asset class served to weigh
down returns. We now hold substantially more investments in the
strategy than we retain in unfunded commitments, which should
support our real estate returns on both an absolute and relative
basis going forward. During the quarter, the real estate
program had $30 million of capital calls and generated $11
million of distributions.
U.S. commercial real estate market fundamentals continued
to recover during the first quarter of 2012. The multifamily
sector was buoyed by increased household formation, declining
home ownership rates, a marginally improved job market,
demographic tailwinds and lagging supply. Strong capital flows
into the space have benefitted multifamily asset pricing as
well. Overall, commercial real estate transaction volumes grew
to $170 billion in 2011 from a low of $50 billion in 2009, yet
well below the peak of $510 billion in 2007. Commercial real
estate construction as a percentage of gross domestic product
remains at a historic low. In the U.S. residential real estate
market, single family home starts still languish slightly above
the lows set at the trough of the financial crisis. Home prices
have not experienced the sustained increases that would
encourage new construction.
Real Treasury yields at or near zero are providing ongoing
support to U.S. REIT securities values. An assessment of
current U.S. REIT valuations depends upon one’s view of expected
10-year Treasury yields over the coming five to seven years, as
an extended period of low yields would be supportive of REIT
pricing. For international real estate securities, the murky
and uncertain real estate picture in China has dampened returns
while increasing volatility. Fiscal year-to-date, U.S. real
estate securities have outperformed the global basket of
24
publicly-traded real estate securities by nearly 900 basis
points.
Resources
The resources portfolio returned 3.6% for the quarter
versus 5.9% for the GSCI Commodity Index, 0.9% for the Dow
Jones/UBS Commodity Index and 11.6% for our real assets
benchmark (i.e., global public real estate). Fiscal year to
date, the resources portfolio has remained relatively flat,
returning -0.5% versus 1.9% for the GSCI Commodity Index, -10.2%
for the Dow Jones/UBS Commodity Index and 3.8% for our real
assets benchmark. The majority of our resources portfolio is
invested in privately held companies that provide lagged
valuation updates.
The first quarter of 2012 saw a further decoupling of
domestic oil and natural gas prices, a trend that has persisted
during the last few years. The WTI Cushing Crude Oil spot price
once again surpassed the $100 mark, reflecting the rising
marginal cost of supply and strong global demand for petroleum
products. The NYMEX Henry Hub Natural Gas spot price continued
its precipitous fall, declining 33.5% during the quarter from
$2.98 to $1.98. Low gas prices in North America reflect the
prolific growth in production from unconventional resources and
the mild temperatures we experienced during the past winter. It
is a testament to the skill of our managers that our resources
portfolio, which is weighted toward domestic onshore oil and gas
assets, generated a cumulative return exceeding 150% in the past
five years while oil prices increased around 50% and gas prices
decreased over 70%. Our managers continue to apply advanced
drilling technology to develop increased reserves, and prudently
allocate incremental capital toward projects with the highest
return potential.
During the quarter, the resources program had $11 million
of capital calls and generated $9 million of distributions.
Fiscal year to date, the resources portfolio has been
approximately cash flow neutral with capital calls offsetting
distributions from our fund managers. We expect the imminent
sale of a co-investment position will provide both cash inflows
and positive returns during the second calendar quarter of 2012.
25
FIXED INCOME
Absolute Return and Credit
The absolute return portfolio returned 1.6% for the quarter
versus a 0.8% return on the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index, 5.3%
return on the Barclays High Yield index and the 8.5% return on
the policy portfolio benchmark. Fiscal year to date, the
absolute return portfolio has returned 4.2% versus a 5.2% return
on the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index, 5.3% return on the
Barclays High Yield index and the 1.9% return on our policy
portfolio benchmark. The credit portfolio returned 4.3% for the
quarter and 3.3% for the fiscal year versus the Barclays High
Yield index returns of 5.3% for both the quarter and fiscal year
time periods. Neither portfolio kept pace with the strong
equity and high-yield market rallies in the quarter, and each
has provided a relatively modest return for the fiscal year as
past opportunities were harvested and new seeds planted. Over
the past decade, both the absolute return and credit portfolios
have delivered relatively strong returns, compounding at an
average annual pace of 7.3% and 10.1%, respectively.
The composition of the absolute return and credit
portfolios continues to evolve. During the quarter, we exited a
relatively large allocation to a fixed income arbitrage manager
in the absolute return program. While the manager had delivered
very good results for us over the past six years, a change in
fund terms ran counter to our thesis and we exited the position.
In addition, we added an opportunistic fundamental valueoriented manager to the credit portfolio at the beginning of the
year. We continue to receive distributions from several
drawdown structure funds with allocations to residential
mortgage-related securities, corporate credit and a broader mix
of eclectic assets. We expect to wind down these allocations
over the next few years. We had no capital calls from our
credit managers during the quarter but had $22 million in cash
distributions.
Bonds and Cash
Our cash and bond portfolios continue to be managed as
sources of liquidity. Our cash portfolio is invested in U.S.
Treasury bills and notes with maturities under one year, and
U.S. Treasury guaranteed Repurchase Agreements with U.S.
domiciled counterparties. The duration of the cash portfolio as
of March 31, 2012 was .21 years. Our government bond portfolio
has also been in short-term U.S. Treasury notes and bonds but
26
with maturities under three years. The average duration of this
portfolio as of quarter end was .62 years. We have continued to
maintain our position in shorter duration bonds, as we feel that
the small additional return for longer duration bonds does not
compensate us for the risk of higher rates in the near future.
The negligible returns reported for the short-term cash
investments are consistent with an environment in which current
interest rates are near 0%.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Investors may be willing to bear risk if they are
adequately compensated with future higher returns. At UVIMCO,
we are willing bear certain risks, but others must be eliminated
if we are unable to absorb the downside losses or if we do not
earn a sufficient risk premium from assuming those risks. We
consider three broad portfolio risks when managing the Long Term
Pool – market risk, manager risk, and liquidity risk – and
evaluate these factors relative to the risk tolerance of Long
Term Pool shareholders.
Over the past several months, the UVIMCO staff and Board
have been working together to refine the measurement and
management of risk in the Long Term Pool. The changes to our
models and processes are subtle, but we are making fewer
assumptions than before and are providing better estimates of
the risk in the portfolio. We utilize a quantitative and
qualitative approach to risk management, and continuously seek
to improve our ability to measure and manage Long Term Pool
risk. However, we acknowledge the limitations we face when
modeling certain risks, as we often invest in commingled funds
that lack transparency into the underlying holdings.
Market Risk
The largest risk factor present in the Long Term Pool is
equity market risk. A common definition of market risk is the
standard deviation or volatility of a portfolio’s return.
Volatility provides a useful proxy for market risk if returns
are normally distributed. However, it is clear that both the
broad market as well as individual investment strategies are not
normally distributed, but rather are subject to a much higher
probability of negative “tail” events. Since investment returns
are subject to “tail risk,” it is useful to complement the
standard deviation statistic with an estimate of drawdown risk.
27
We manage market risk in the Long Term Pool by diversifying
across three broad asset classes: equity, fixed income, and real
assets. Our objective is to maintain estimated market risk in
the Long Term Pool that is less than or equal to the estimated
market risk of the policy portfolio. Our current estimate of
the volatility of Long Term Pool returns is 11% versus 12% for
the policy portfolio. In addition, the lowest one-percentile
annual drawdown on the Long Term Pool is estimated to be
26%, less than the drawdown estimate of -30% on the policy
portfolio.
Manager Risk
The Long Term Pool invests with more than one hundred
external managers. We seek to maintain a portfolio of managers
that generates sufficient returns to compensate us for bearing
both market risk and the additional risk inherent in working
with individual managers. Manager risk includes tracking error
or active bets away from the benchmark, operational or business
risks, lack of transparency, and leverage.
UVIMCO mitigates manager risk by a thorough due diligence
process. At our first Annual Investors Meeting on March 21, we
highlighted the due diligence process and presented case studies
designed to illustrate how we select external managers and
monitor those relationships. We are currently recruiting for a
Manager of Operational Due Diligence, who will augment the
current procedures we use to assess our managers’ operations and
controls. We also reduce manager risk through diversification,
bypassing certain investment structures, and avoiding certain
investment strategies (e.g., highly leveraged hedge funds).
Most importantly, we control manager risk by building close
relationships with managers who have unquestioned ethics and
integrity, and who align their interests with those of our
University and foundation shareholders.
Over time, UVIMCO has been well compensated for assuming
manager risk. Attribution analyses suggest that manager
selection is the largest contributor to the Long Term Pool’s
long-term outperformance versus the policy benchmark and peers.
Liquidity Risk
At UVIMCO, we define liquidity risk as an inability to meet
any of the following four primary liquidity requirements: (i)
withdrawals by the University and foundation investors, (ii) the
excess of capital calls over expected capital distributions from
28
private funds, (iii) the need to rebalance exposures following a
market decline, and (iv) the ability to deploy cash
opportunistically as new investment opportunities arise. We
manage this risk by maintaining a portfolio of Treasury bills
and bonds, maintaining sufficient liquidity with our public
equity and hedge fund managers, and managing the pace of
commitments to private investments.
Managing the pace of commitments to private investments is
an inexact science. As the timing and amount of capital calls
to and distributions from private investments is at the
discretion of our external private fund managers, we must
continually recalibrate our models to better predict these cash
flows. In addition, for the past few years, we focused on the
sum of private market values and unfunded commitments (the
“private aggregate”) as the primary risk control for our private
portfolio. While this measure is useful, it overlooks material
changes to the composition of the private exposure and the
underlying risks. An excessive level of private market value
within the Long Term Pool may prevent us from having the
liquidity needed to fund shareholder redemptions or rebalance
the portfolio. However, unfunded commitments represent a form
of implicit leverage, a more serious risk. Therefore, we have
revised our risk framework for private investments to center
around unfunded commitments. We believe a target for unfunded
commitments of 15% is prudent and will enable UVIMCO to invest
consistently through a variety of market cycles. Actual
unfunded private investment commitments decreased from $975
million or 18% of the Long Term Pool as of June 30, 2011 to $843
million or 15% of the Long Term Pool as of March 31, 2012.
We also plan to adopt a maximum unfunded commitment of 25%
of the Long Term Pool. A lower allocation to private investments
will reduce the impulse to sell privates or turn off new
commitments entirely during a market downturn, which we believe
would be costly to long-term returns. This approach also gives
us the ability to be more opportunistic in buying secondary
investments or co-investing, when we have better insights into
the valuation and attractiveness of those investments.
Given our four primary liquidity requirements, we believe
that an appropriate target for liquidity is to have 10% of the
Long Term Pool invested in assets that are safe and highly
liquid, and at least 30% of the Pool should be available for
conversion to cash in any twelve-month period. The total of
bonds and cash as of March 31, 2012 was 11.7%, a significant
increase over the 8.3% of bonds and cash we held in the Long
29
Term Pool at year end. The increase was largely due to fund
redemptions, but we expect new investment allocations and
spending distributions will reduce the level of Long Term Pool
liquidity before fiscal year end. Over time, we expect the sum
of the liquid U.S. Treasury bond and cash portfolios to vary
between 8% and 12% of the Long Term Pool. Although this is a
drag on returns (especially in a zero interest rate
environment), we believe it provides insurance against future
turbulent markets and will allow us to fund attractive
investments that it will more than make up for the return drag.
The percentage of the Long Term Pool that can be turned
into cash has remained relatively constant over the past year.
As of March 31, 2012, 38% of the Long Term Pool can be turned
into cash within one quarter and 53% of the Pool can be turned
into cash within one year.

UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA
BOARD OF VISITORS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
BOARD MEETING:
May 22, 2012
COMMITTEE:
Finance
AGENDA ITEM:
III.C.
ACTION REQUIRED:
None
Retirement Administrative Committee
BACKGROUND: The University is the plan sponsor of a number of
defined contribution retirement plans, including the Defined
Contribution Retirement Plan for the General Faculty and
Executive and Senior Administrative and Managerial and
Professional University Staff of the University of Virginia and
the Defined Contribution Retirement Plan for Employees of the
University of Virginia Medical Center.
At its June 2, 2007 meeting, the Finance Committee of the
Board of Visitors approved a revised Retirement Program Policy.
The revised policy established the role of the Finance Committee
of the Board of Visitors to provide oversight of the retirement
plans and to report annually to the Board. The policy also
clarified the role of the University’s Retirement Administrative
Committee to establish procedures and review investment
performance of the various funds offered. The Retirement
Administrative Committee is chaired by Yoke San Reynolds, Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer of the University. The
Retirement Administrative Committee also established an
Investment Subcommittee, chaired by the CEO of UVIMCO. Susan
Carkeek, Vice President and Chief Human Resource Officer, is the
retirement program administrator.
At its April 11, 2008 meeting, the Finance Committee of the
Board of Visitors approved new Investment Procedures, creating a
menu of investment options for plan participants that includes a
full range of funds, regardless of which vendor a participant
elects. The new Investment Procedures also changed the role of
CAPTRUST (a third party engaged to provide analysis of
investment performance of the funds) from consultant to advisor
thus shifting fund selection and monitoring responsibility to
CAPTRUST.
Mr. Mark Kington, as Finance Committee Chair, and Mr. Alan
Diamonstein, Finance Committee member, work with the Retirement
34
Administrative Committee to oversee the retirement program and
report back to the Finance Committee on an annual basis.
DISCUSSION: On May 11, Messrs. Kington and Diamonstein met with
the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer and
representatives of the Retirement Administrative Committee to
review the Plan’s annual performance and to discuss the overall
program from participant and administrative perspectives.
Minutes of that meeting appear as Appendix B.

QUASI-ENDOWMENT ACTIONS
JANUARY 1, 2012 TO MARCH 31, 2012
The quasi-endowment actions listed below were approved by either (1) the Executive Vice President and Chief
Operating Officer, under the following Board of Visitors’ resolutions, or (2) the Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer, under the delegation of authority from the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer:
•
In October 1990 and June 1996 the Board of Visitors approved resolutions delegating to the Executive Vice
President and Chief Operating Officer the authority to approve quasi-endowment actions, including
establishments and divestments of less than $2,000,000, with regular reports on such actions.
•
In February 2006, the Board of Visitors approved a resolution permitting approval of quasi-endowment
transactions, regardless of dollar amount, in cases in which it is determined to be necessary as part of the
assessment of the business plan for capital projects. Additionally, to the extent that the central loan program
has balances, they may be invested in the long term investment pool managed by UVIMCO or in other
investment vehicles as permitted by law.

SOURCES AND USES OF AVAILABLE FUNDS
ACADEMIC DIVISION
FISCAL YEAR 2011-2012
As of March 31, 2012
This report compares the actual results for the sources and uses of funds to the Academic
Division annual budget and to actual results for the same period last year. The operating budget
is not developed in accordance with GAAP and differs from GAAP-based statements in several
ways:
• The operating budget is on a cash basis.
• Capital and investment activities are excluded. The operations of the internal bank are
not included, except as units pay debt service to the internal bank.
• Depreciation is not recognized and non-capital outlay purchases are recognized as
expensed rather than spread over the useful life of the purchase.
• Fringe benefit expenditures are included in the operating budget using pooled benefit
rates. The activity associated with the UVa Health Plan is not included.
• The operating budget recognizes recoveries of indirect costs upon distribution to units,
not when billed to granting agencies.
Comparison of March 31, 2012 Actual Results to Prior Year
Sources
Total sources of available funds for the Academic Division as of March 31, 2012 were $1,121.9
million, a decrease of 2.1% compared to the same period in the prior year.
•
Tuition: Overall actual net tuition at March 31, 2012 is $386 million, 2.4% higher than in
March 2011 due to higher tuition rates and enrollment increases, offset by a one-time impact
of funding undergraduate financial aid from federal stimulus funds.
Undergraduate Tuition: Actual gross undergraduate tuition is $233.5 million, $26 million
higher than prior year, related to the increase in tuition rates (about $21 million),
incremental enrollment (about $3.9 million), and the addition of a differential rate for the
McIntire School of Commerce.
The allocation to undergraduate financial aid from tuition revenues has increased $23.6
million at March 31, 2012 ($528.4 million) compared to the prior year ($4.8 million) for
two reasons. First, in FY2011, the University applied one-time proceeds from State
Fiscal Stabilization Funds from ARRA to undergraduate financial aid, reducing the
amount required from tuition. Second, FY2012 saw an increase of $8 million in the
overall amount of unrestricted resources applied to financial aid in order to address an
unplanned 2010-2011 increase and a projected 2011-2012 increase. This increase was
related to increases in the cost of attendance, the elimination of two federal aid programs,
and a significant increase in the number of students eligible to receive financial aid.
44
Net graduate ($16.3 million) and professional ($86.7 million) tuition is higher than prior
year due to increases in tuition rates. Net Medical School tuition ($24.6 million) is
higher than in prior year due to an increase in tuition rates and enrollment.
•
State Appropriations: Down $16.1 million or 11.2% reflecting $10.7 million in budget cuts
from the Commonwealth and amounts not yet collected related to benefit adjustments and the
draw-down of research funding.
•
Grants & Contracts and Facilities and Administrative (F&A) Cost Recoveries: Down 5.0%
and 5.7% respectively, reflecting the ramp-down of ARRA-supported grants from 24% to 6%
of research spending through March 31, 2012 partially offset by increases in corporate and
foundation-sponsored research.
•
Endowment Distribution and Fee: Up $5.6 million or 7.2%.1 Activity through March 2012
includes the endowment fee distribution ($2.7 million higher than prior year), the Coulter
Endowment and matching UVa endowment distribution ($1 million higher than prior year),
and the semi-annual endowment income distribution made in January 2012 for $66.2 million.
The amounts are higher than in prior year due to the higher year-end endowment market
values (upon which the fee is based) and the increased distribution rate.
•
Gifts from external donors and affiliated foundations totaled $81.2 million as compared to
$82.4 million during this same period for the prior year. 2 While gifts from affiliated
foundations are up 6.5% or $4.1 million compared to last year, expendable gifts are 27.2% or
$5.3 million lower mostly related to the difference in timing of the flow of annual gift
revenues.
•
Auxiliary revenues through March 2012 are $168.9 million, up $11.3 million or 7.2%
compared to the prior year. Increases over the prior year include higher athletic conference
revenues, housing rate increases, parking and transportation revenues, intramurals fees, and
printing and copying services revenues.
Uses
Total uses of available funds for the Academic Division totaled $1,027.2 million, down 1.9%
compared to the prior year.
•
1
Direct Instruction: Spending is down $5.6 million or 2.2% to date compared with the prior
year, primarily related to the continuing impact of budget reductions. The bulk of state
budget reductions have impacted instruction (as the largest portion of the state-funded
budget) as schools have held open positions vacant. It is anticipated that faculty hiring and
UVa-held endowments (unrestricted and restricted) are distributed semi-annually, first in January and then in June.
2
The Sources and Uses statement includes gifts only to the extent they are expected to be expended in the Academic
Division during the fiscal year and therefore is not always comparable to annual philanthropic cash flow presented
in the External Affairs Committee, which also includes gifts to the foundations, gifts that are transferred to the
endowment, and non-cash gifts.
45
recruitment will rebound slightly as new enrollment related revenues are distributed to the
schools.
•
Research and Public Service: Spending to date is down $2.3 million or 0.9% compared with
prior year.
•
Academic Support: Spending is consistent year-to-year.
•
Student Services: Increased $3.0 million or 11.3% as a result of recoding expenditures for
the cost of the Student Information System to student services in FY 2012 from general
administration in FY 2011. Adjusting for this recoding, student service spending increased
$50,000 over prior year.
•
General Administration: Spending is consistent year-to-year.
•
Operation and Maintenance of Physical Plant: Spending is consistent year-to-year.
•
Scholarships and Fellowships (exclusive of tuition-funded financial aid): Decreased $22.3
million or -19.2% compared to prior year. In FY2011, one-time proceeds from State Fiscal
Stabilization Funds from the ARRA were applied to undergraduate financial aid. These
funds were not available in 2011-12.
•
Auxiliary Enterprises: Up $8.8 million or 5.9% over prior year. In addition to planned
higher spending in athletics, housing, intramurals, parking and transportation and printing
and copying services, the current year activity includes an unbudgeted Athletics Department
transfer of $3 million for capital improvements to the track funded from gifts.
Comparison of March 31, 2012 Actual Results to Budget
Sources
Total sources of available funds for the Academic Division as of March 31, 2012 were $1,121.9
million, compared to budgeted results for the year of $1,297.4 million.
•
Tuition: Through March 31, 2012, 99.3% of budgeted tuition has been recognized. It is
expected that the remaining budget will be met, with revenues remaining to be billed related
to terms beginning in May and open enrollment courses in the School of Continuing and
Professional Studies.
Gross undergraduate tuition is slightly ahead of budget (100.4%) versus last year (98.3%)
due to greater than expected enrollment.
Graduate tuition is 94.3% of budget and is expected to end the year under budget by about $2
million due to enrollment declines, which are historically more difficult to project.
46
Gross professional tuition is lower than expected due to lower than projected enrollment in
the new Global MBA program.
Medical tuition is lower than expected due to a slight shift in mix between in-state and outof-state students.
Through March 31, 2012, financial aid funded from tuition stands at $54.3 million, or about
90.8% of the expected amount, primarily related to graduate aid. It is anticipated that the aid
will be applied to student accounts by year-end.
•
State Appropriations: Through March 31, 2011, the state appropriation is recognized at
97.9% of the expected amount. Certain base budget adjustments, such as state employee
health insurance and retirement plan adjustments make up the difference between the
budgeted and actual amounts recognized at March 31, 2012 and are expected to be
transferred in April.
•
Grants & Contracts and F&A Cost Recoveries: Through March 31, 2012, actual recoveries
are at 79.9% of budget, which is consistent with the March 31, 2011 recoveries which were
also at 79.9% of budget.
•
Endowment Distribution and Fee: Annual endowment distributions occur twice a year,
therefore, activity through March 31, 2012 reflects the January distribution bringing the
amount through March 31, 2012 to 59.8% of budget, slightly ahead due to the conservative
budgeting for FY2012 since the endowment rate for the year was not established until
September 2012.
•
Gifts from external donors and affiliated foundations 3: Through March 2012, recognized
gifts are at 81.6% of budget, which is only slightly less than March 31, 2011 recognized gifts
which were at 84.7% of budget.
•
Auxiliary revenues: Through March 2012, revenues are at 91% of budget versus revenues
that were at 87.3% of budget for the same period last year, primarily the result of an

Direct Instruction: Through March 2012, instruction expenditures are at 74.9% of budget
versus 78.3% last year. The budget includes a 2% salary increase pool for an increase that
was not effective until December 2011, so we expect expenditures to be slightly higher in the

APPENDICES
APPENDIX A
2012-2013 PRATT FUND ALLOCATIONS
ARTS AND SCIENCES - $3,200,000 allocation for 2012-2013, plus
$104,667 anticipated carryforward of
remaining 2011-2012 funds
Biology - The department proposes to allocate $183,460 from the
2012-2013 allocation plus $10,490 remaining at the end of 20112012 for graduate fellowships in 2012-2013. Of this amount,
$148,650 will be used to provide full support to two outstanding
first-year graduate students in Biology and augment the
fellowship packages of four President's Fellows. The remaining
$45,300 will be allocated to satisfy the department’s membership
and to support an in-state student in the Biomedical Sciences
Graduate Program, an important inter-school collaborative
effort. Biology proposes to use $64,310 in Pratt funds to
augment the salaries of the Director and Associate Director of
the Mountain Lake Biological Station. The University has made,
and continues to make, significant investments in the
instructional and research capacity of this Appalachian mountain
field research and teaching facility, which provides summer
courses, a Research Experiences for Undergraduates program, and
hosts researchers from around the world every summer. Biology
proposes to use the remaining $2,230, combined with an expected
carryforward from 2011-2012 of $24,177, for equipment purchases.
Chemistry - The department proposes to allocate $150,000 of the
2012-2013 allocation for graduate support and awards for summer
research fellowships to undergraduates. Awards to graduate
students will include ongoing commitments to fellowships
supporting the Center for Catalytic Hydrocarbon
Functionalization and awards used to recruit outstanding
entering students. The department proposes to use the remaining
$100,000 of its allocation to supplement faculty compensation,
including interim funding support and other existing commitments
to four faculty members ($52,000); summer wages support for new
faculty positions for the introductory and organic lab sections;
and summer wages for faculty involved in upgrading the
biological chemistry laboratory.
Mathematics - The department proposes to allocate $116,142 in
support of the Whyburn Postdoctoral Fellowship program.
Internationally recognized for its excellence, this competitive
program brings four new PhD recipients in mathematics to the
University as faculty instructors for three years of teaching
Appendix A – Page 1
and research. Pratt funds support 40% of the academic year
compensation plus one month of summer wages for each fellow.
Mathematics proposes to allocate $5,275 in faculty summer wages
for the five faculty members serving as mentors in the summer
Research Experiences for Undergraduates program. The department
proposes to spend $28,583 of the 2012-2013 allocation, along
with the remaining balance from prior years’ allocations
(approximately $70,000), to provide entering and rising second
year graduate students with additional preparation for advanced
level courses and for the General Exams in Analysis, Algebra,
and Topology. Additionally, the Pratt funds provide fellowship
support for students engaged in Ph.D. research.
Physics - The department proposes to use $211,939 of its 20122013 allocation to support the equipment needs in the start-up
package for a new condensed matter physicist expected to join
the department in fall 2012. The department seeks to use the
remaining $38,061 in continued support of the salary of new
faculty member Craig Group and to provide summer wages to the
associate chair of the department.
New Faculty Start-up Fund – A total of $2,300,000 is requested
by the College to use as components of start-up packages
associated with new hires, some of which are still being
negotiated; for cost sharing on grants and other opportunities
that may arise in the coming year; and for other strategic needs
in building the programs in these four departments. It is
estimated that this funding will be equally split between
equipment, faculty salaries, and fellowships. This $2,300,000
is comprised of a $400,000 reserve managed by the dean and a
$1.9 million Faculty Start-Up Fund, from which all allocations
will be authorized by the Executive Vice President and Provost.
This reserve, which will be carefully allocated in accordance
with the terms of Mr. Pratt’s will, is critical in the
recruitment of faculty members in biology, chemistry,
mathematics, and physics.
SCHOOL OF MEDICINE — $3,800,000 allocation for 2012-2013, plus
$292,688 anticipated carryforward of
remaining 2011-2012 funds
Support and Training of Student Researchers - $327,839 Graduate students and post-doctoral fellows are central to a
successful biomedical research program. A modest institutional
share from the Pratt bequest supplements funds from federal
government training programs and charitable foundations to
attract superlative students. These individuals are critical in
Appendix A – Page 2
enhancing the quality of research in the Ph.D. and M.D./Ph.D.
programs at the University. The success of these programs has a
direct impact on the quality of faculty research at the School
of Medicine.
Core Facility Support - $1,264,849 – Research core facilities –
including, but not limited to, the Small Animal Multimodality
Imaging Core, Advanced Microscopy Facility, Biomolecular
Research Facility, Gene Targeting & Transgenic Facility,
Biorepository, and the new BioNMR Spectroscopy Core, provide
access to large, expensive equipment and techniques that
otherwise would not be available or cost-effective to individual
investigators. These facilities operate on a fee-for-service
basis and, after development costs and other expenses, average a
cost recovery of 60-80%, with the differential funded by Pratt
allocations. These resources provide a competitive advantage to
acquiring emerging technologies and are critical to the School
of Medicine’s success in recruitment and retention of faculty
and its ability to continue to grow its externally-funded
research programs.
The Decade Plan - $2,500,000 - The School of Medicine proposes a
special distribution to retain and recruit outstanding faculty
in the basic medical sciences, the Department of Medicine, and
the Cancer Center. This will be the second of four annual $2.5
million distributions for this purpose.

Minutes
University of Virginia
Board of Visitors Finance Committee Appointees on Retirement
Administrative Committee
May 11, 2012
Madison Hall Lower Conference Room
Board of Visitors Finance Committee Appointees (via phone):
Mark Kington and The Honorable Alan Diamonstein
Also in Attendance: Michael Strine, Executive Vice President
and Chief Operating Officer; Yoke San Reynolds, Vice President
and Chief Financial Officer and Chair of the Retirement
Administrative Committee (RAC); Susan Carkeek, Vice President
and Chief Human Resource Officer; Larry Kochard, Chief Executive
Officer of the University of Virginia Investment Management
Company; Barry Schmidt, CAPTRUST Financial Advisor (via phone);
Anne Broccoli, Director of Benefits; Megan Lowe, Assistant Vice
President and Chief of Staff to the Executive Vice President and
Chief Operating Officer.
There were six agenda items for this meeting: the background of
the Retirement Administrative Committee, the annual review of
fund performance, completion of vendor consolidation, future
consolidation considerations, consideration of more formal
oversight of 403(b), and the addition of Roth 403(b) to the
403(b)Plan.
I.
Background of the Retirement Administrative Committee: The
University is the plan sponsor of a number of defined
contribution retirement plans, including the Defined
Contribution Retirement Plan for the General Faculty and
Executive and Senior Administrative and Managerial and
Professional University Staff of the University of Virginia and
the Defined Contribution Retirement Plan for Employees of the
University of Virginia Medical Center.
In June of 2007, the Finance Committee of the Board of Visitors
approved a revised Retirement Program Policy. The revised
policy established the role of the Finance Committee of the
Board of Visitors to provide oversight of the retirement plans
and to report annually to the Board. The policy also clarified
the role of the University’s Retirement Administrative Committee
Appendix B – Page 1
to establish procedures and review investment performance of the
various funds offered. The Retirement Administrative Committee
is chaired by Yoke San Reynolds, Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer of the University. The RAC also established
an Investment Subcommittee, chaired by the CEO of UVIMCO. Susan
Carkeek, Vice President and Chief Human Resource Officer, is the
retirement program administrator.
In April of 2008, the Finance Committee of the Board of Visitors
approved new Investment Procedures, creating a menu of
investment options for plan participants that includes a full
range of funds, regardless of which vendor a participant elects.
The new Investment Procedures also changed the role of CAPTRUST
(a third party engaged to provide analysis of investment
performance of the funds) from consultant to advisor thus
shifting fund selection and monitoring responsibility to
CAPTRUST.
II. December 31st, 2011 Quarterly Performance Review: Barry
Schmitt, CAPTURST Financial Advisor, provided an overview of the
annual report on fund performance. Mr. Schmitt reminded the
appointees that the RAC meets quarterly with CAPTRUST to monitor
fund performance and each quarter, one of the vendors is invited
to the RAC to present on their participant activity and fund
performance.
Mr. Schmitt provided a general overview of the investment
performance and reviewed the specific funds that CAPTRUST and
the RAC have been following closely. Under RAC policy
guidelines, those funds with continued lagging performance
against the applicable benchmarks are closed to future
contributions. Three Fidelity funds and two TIAA-CREF funds
were designated for closure.
All other funds are meeting policy guidelines. Other item of
note in 2011 is the conversion of many Fidelity and TIAA-CREF
funds to lower share classes (lower cost = higher investment
returns).
III. Completion of Vanguard Consolidation and Improved Pricing:
Last year CAPTRUST recommended, and the RAC approved, the
migration of existing Vanguard assets in each of the plans to
Fidelity. The elimination of Vanguard as a vendor provided
several advantages including the simplification of retirement
plan options for participants while offering the same Vanguard
funds on the Fidelity platform. In essence, each Vanguard and
Fidelity participant now has the option to invest in both fund
Appendix B – Page 2
structures within the Fidelity platform. With the exception of
one fund, all funds on Vanguard’s platform were re-registered to
Fidelity, therefore eliminating the need to liquidate and
purchase the new fund option. One benefit of this process was
Vanguard’s willingness to offer a lower share class on many of
their funds since they are no longer responsible for the
recordkeeping of participant accounts resulting in significant
savings to participants. No re-enrollment was necessary and
contributions and investment allocations transferred over as-is
to Fidelity from Vanguard with minimal participant involvement.
This consolidation was successfully completed in October 2011.
IV. Future Consolidation Considerations: Over the last several
years, the RAC has considered further consolidation within the
Retirement Plans where efficiencies to benefit the participants
are warranted. CAPTRUST presented four higher education
consolidation options/trends for consideration. The RAC and
CAPTRUST are continuing a thorough review of these options
before further considering change.
V.
Discussion on more formal oversight of 403(b)Plan: In
2007, the government issued sweeping changes to 403(b) plans
which increased fiduciary responsibility to the sponsoring
institutions. As these new regulations were fully implemented
in 2009, many institutions including UVa began to look in more
detail into the overall operation and structure of their
retirement programs and the efficiency (or inefficiency) within
these programs. UVa is now considering whether or not to
further expand its fiduciary oversight of the 403(b) Plan.
CAPTRUST provided the Committee with information about several
Institutions of Higher Education that have considered or have
made the decision to “take on” fiduciary oversight of the 403b.
There are pros and cons of taking on this oversight. RAC is
currently reviewing a disruption analysis and investment
demographics before further considering taking on this fiduciary
responsibility.
VI. Addition of Roth 403(b) to the Plan: In response to
increasing employee requests to provide a Roth option in the
403(b), the Plan will begin accepting post-tax employee
contributions in January 2013. Unlike Roth IRA’s there is no
income limit on a Roth 403(b) so regardless of our employees’
income, they can elect to defer post-tax amounts up to the IRS
current 403b limits of $17,500 or $22,000, based on age.
