VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: I want to thank each and every one of you for coming today and I want to introduce the members of the Screening Committee. Senator Tom Alexander to my right; myself, Jake Knotts; Representative Joan Brady; Representative Floyd Breeland; and Representative Lanny Littlejohn . If any of y'all would like to have anything to say, that's fine; have at it. And we have walking in now the leader of the pack, Senator Linda Short.
SENATOR SHORT: Good morning.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: We have with us now, of course, our court reporter, Lisa Huffman, she's working to the left here. And we have with us Sophia Derrick, who's our Administrative Assistant for the Committee. Like to say thank you to all for coming, and we're going to try to get through this the best we can. Our Chairman is currently sick and I wish that he were here. But he's here in spirit, and I hope him a quick recovery. The first thing we're going to -- our first order of business this morning is, we want to start the Screening Committee.
MS. DERRICK: You need to swear them in.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Do we swear them in one at a time or all at once?
MS. DERRICK: We can do it all at once, if you'd like.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Yes. If all the committee -- I mean, all the candidates please stand. If you would, raise your right hand. Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God, before this Screening Committee today on any questions asked?
(Affirmation)
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: You may be seated. The first person that we're going to be screening this morning would be Colonel Harry Limehouse, for The Citadel Board. There's one seat, at-large.
COLONEL LIMEHOUSE: Senator, if it had been deer season, I'd know why you were late; so I hope your doctor appointment turned out all right.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Well, if I got to go down there to Charleston to your place to hunt those deer, I wouldn't be hunting out of season. I'd be killing all those things that I could get, but I'm not hunting out of season; I'm just kidding. Mr. Limehouse, state your name for the Committee.
COLONEL LIMEHOUSE: Harry Bancroft Limehouse, Jr.

To be very frank, Coastal's a pretty exciting place to be because of all the things that are happening there. And it's been a pleasure to be there, and I would certainly like to be over to continue to work for the strength of the academic program and all the other factors that make Coastal a great University. You can be confident that I will serve with integrity there and will work for the good of the institution and for the people of South Carolina who have entrusted Coastal Carolina University to us. Thank you.
SENATOR ALEXANDER: Mr. Chairman, if I could. I would certainly like to congratulate you on your leadership and involvement there in taking the college to a university. Just briefly, can you tell me kind of y'alls philosophy on your tuition increases or what has transpired over the last five years as y'all have done that? And where you see that going in the future?

A part of it has to do with, I know that you in your deliberations and those with the Senate Finance Committee and House Ways and Means Committee, there are a lot of mouths to feed in South Carolina, a lot of agencies, a lot of needs that we have as a state. Our economy's been growing lately. We're doing better, but higher education is not one of the best-funded sectors of our economy and our budget. So, some cases to respond to state funding that is actually decreasing or not increasing, we've been in the position of having to raise tuition, which we don't like to do. However, we're hoping for a greater investment in higher education from the General Assembly because of the role it plays in economic development. So, we don't like to do those tuition increases, working to keep them lower.

Again, we have a Audit Committee that's very active now. And that, working with the Internal Auditor of the University we would like to see if we can find some additional savings.
SENATOR ALEXANDER: Thank you.
SENATOR SHORT: Mr. Chair.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Senator Short.
SENATOR SHORT: How many students do you have now? What level do y'all plan to go to before we stop that growth pattern?
DR. SMITH: Well, we have a whole lot more than we do when I started working years ago. I believe if you counted sort of on an FTE basis, probably little over 7500 -- of the size 8,000, and that includes graduate students, and that includes distance learning students, and anyone that could be classified in any way as a student. So, we run a lot. And in those cases, we feel that the analysis that we have had done as a Board, indicates that we are okay now, for now, but our needs are going to grow, for sure because of our accelerated growth in the last four or five years.
SENATOR SHORT: Do you have plans to continue that kind of growth? Or do you have a top number that you're looking to go to or --

And I look at the fact of having a young daughter myself who will be starting high school next year, the opportunity for her to move on to higher education is important to me, as someone who was the first person in his family to graduate from college. I know how important it is for our young men and women to get the proper education. We look down our company operating nursing homes across this state and many others, of looking for qualified individuals to be our administrators, to be our managers, and that comes from the education that they receive as we bring them in. It's been an honor and a privilege to serve the past, right at seven months. I just look forward to the opportunity to serve a full term.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Any question from the committee? Hearing none, do I hear --
SENATOR ALEXANDER: Move favorable report.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Move favorable report by Senator Alexander.

I remember my first screening, Senator Giese was there, and he said, Are y'all crazy to be starting a football team? Well, I'm happy to report that last year we made the national playoffs. We were on ESPN twice. It's been a great boost to the local economy and to our region. Coastal employs 1800 people. We generate $200 million dollars to the local economy, $250 million dollars statewide.

It's an engine, and as one of my colleagues has pointed out, we're no longer a regional school; we're becoming national. I'm excited to be a part of that, and I want to make it happen in a much better way. I've been privileged to be Chairman of the Board for the last two years, and I look forward to continuing my service.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Any questions from the Board members? Representative Littlejohn.
REPRESENTATIVE LITTLEJOHN: Mr. Hodge, I know you're from Spartanburg and have not many ties over there at Coastal Carolina. Why are you seeking this term again?
MR. HODGE: You know it's interesting. Mr. Biggs has been there six months, and he talked about his love for the university. When you experience the atmosphere, it's really like a family atmosphere. Faculty, staff, administrators, emotional investment into the community, and you sort of become emotionally attached. And that's the way I've become. I just love to see things grow and nurture and flourish.

We've just gone through a presidential selection process that was very trying. Community involvement from a lot of different sources. But we've got a team in there that's going to take us to the next level. And that's why I'm so excited about it because it's kind of a part of the building process.
SENATOR ALEXANDER: Chairman, let me just make a comment. Five or six years ago, the state was funding y'all at about 50 percent. In this year's budget we've got it at 70 percent. And I was just wonder how that will affect y'alls tuition increases or anything that you might have to address in that area.
MR. HODGE: Yeah, we had $105 million dollar budget last year. The state reduced us with respect from $14 to $12 million. Sort of hard to stomach because, you know, we're growing at such a fast pace. But we understand the pressures on the state. We restricted tuition increase to only double digits. This year, I'm happy to report that the projected budget increase is going to be around 3.5 percent.

So what we're doing is we're physically getting responsible; we're addressing it very aggressively. We appointed this Audit Committee that's been mentioned. We appointed it nearly a year ago. And we hope that the Audit Committee is going to assist us in streamlining the fat off our budget so we can be better stewards. Likewise, when we went through this presidential selection process, the number one criteria identified for a president was fund-raising capability. We have to think

I have been fortunate to be elected Chairman of the Board on three different occasions. I have served six of the 14 years as Chairman. And I've fallen in love, like the other people, with Coastal. My wife is from Conway. We have a place at the beach. And my house is exactly one hour from Coastal, so I can get down there at any time I feel I need to be down there.

And I'd like to continue and watch this university continue to grow as it has the last 14 years. I think it, as others said, this university is on the brink of just being spectacular. And our master plan for the campus and students, I think is well thought out and took about three years to get it right, but I think we're good to go. And I would like to be there to help where I can; take my experience on the Board and help it grow.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Any other questions from any other members of the committee? Any? Do I hear a motion?
SENATOR SHORT: Move favorable report.
REPRESENTATIVE BRADY: Second.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Move for a favorable report by Senator Short. And I hear a second Representative Brady. Any discussion? There being no discussion. All in favor, raise your right hand. Let it be known, it's unanimous.
MR. DuBARD: Thank you, sir.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Thank you. The next person would be for the at-large, Seat 15, Daniel Monroe or Daniel Moore. Thank you, Mr. Moore. Let me ask you a few questions. Do you have any health-related problems that the Screening Committee should be made aware of that would prevent you from serving on the Board in a full capacity?
MR. MOORE: No, sir.

I grew up in the area. I live about 25 minutes from the campus, and I'm involved there; committee meetings and other meetings quite often, and ready to respond at any particular time. I, later on, in my business career was asked to be on the Higher Education Commission and served for eight years there. And I'm continuing my service, and was elected to the Board in 2000, and re-elected two years ago. And I'd like to be elected again, and continue with the great things that are happening, and be a part of that. We elected a new president and I'm very excited about working with this new administration and the same goals for the future because all the people that it touches, touches in our region.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Okay. Any members of the Board have a question? Do I hear a motion?
SENATOR ALEXANDER: Move favorable report.
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: Second.

As all of you know, Wil Lou Gray is a unique school, and it has experienced positive academic growth over the years. In reviewing the state report card for 2006, the school received an excellent rating in the absolute rating category. And then in the improvement grading, they received a good. And this was also for last year. This gives the school an opportunity to be recognized by the Department of Education as a Palmetto Gold Award. Also, I think the successes of the students that have participated in the program at Wil Lou Gray speaks for themselves.

We've had many success stories. And one that comes to mind is a young man, Christopher George, from the Upstate who in this last year received the highest score on the GED in the state. And he was one of our students. Mr. George, like many of the students that come to Wil Lou Gray, had problems. Most of these problems start in the family. Not all, but most start in the family situation.
And to make a long story short, he left school at 17 with no diploma. Not that he could not do the work, he just was not motivated. He just didn't care. He was struggling with depression. And when he lost his job and he had no plan for his life. And with encouragement, he did enroll in Wil Lou Gray. His brother, prior to that, had graduated from Wil Lou Gray. So, once he got there and had that nurture and care and was motivated, he has done quite well. And this is just one story that goes on and on. I can't take any credit for the report card for '06, nor for Christopher George's success. But I do hope and I do feel that as the years go on, that we will be faced with other challenges. And I would consider it a privilege to have the opportunity to continuing learning and to continuing my work with Wil Lou Gray.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Any questions from the committee?
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: Just one, Mr. Chairman.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Representative Breeland.
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: Dr. Bennett, when these students leave Wil Lou Gray, do you have a tracking system in place where you will follow him as to his success?
DR. BENNETT: I'm sure there's a system that's in place. That's pretty much a requirement for most of our schools. To answer your question, yes, sir. I'm not real familiar with that at this time.
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: Okay.

And I look at Wil Lou Gray as a last chance, so to speak, for a lot of students. This is it. And so, it's an alternative method of educating that I think is extremely important for our state when we look at our dropout rates. My desire is that this school could increase its enrollment to touch more students.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Okay, thank you. Do I hear a motion?
SENATOR SHORT: Move favorable report.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Move for a favorable report by Senator Short.
REPRESENTATIVE LITTLEJOHN: Second.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Second by Representative Littlejohn. All in favor, raise your right hand. All opposed. Let it be known that the vote is unanimous.
DR. BENNETT: Thank you.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Thank you. Next is Sandra Parker. Good evening. Ms. Parker, do you have any health-related problems that the Screening Committee should be made aware of that would prevent you from serving on the Board in a full capacity?
MS. PARKER: No, sir.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Considering your present occupation and other activities, would you be able to attend Board meetings on a regular basis?
MS. PARKER: Yes.

I work in my church with the youth. I have been a director for children, the music and the different Christian place that they have grown. And I know that children, when given that opportunity and the support and the backing, can do all sorts of things. I don't want to see children stop at Wil Lou Gray. I want to see them go on and on. I have a granddaughter that's at Clemson. She is a junior this year, will be a senior next year. I have always supported my grandchildren, my great-grandchildren, our children. And to be very honest, I owned an insurance and real estate agency; I retired. Well folks, it's not like it's what you think when you retire. I'm bored. And this is the only thing I really love to do. I really want to serve on this Board. I want to be a part of helping children throughout South Carolina.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Okay. Any questions from the committee? Could you tell me what you actually know about the school itself? Have you been to the campus?
MS. WILLIAMSON: No, sir. I have not. I have friends that have been very much involved. Ms. Mary Lou Willis, Mr. Ken Willis who was the superintendent at Aiken County Schools, who is now deceased. I have not been to the campus; I know where it is. Excuse me, I have been there, but not to visit.

I'm also a newspaper columnist at this time, "TimesandDemocrat.com." Go to it and check out my column yesterday. I think it might be of interest to you. What I would like to do is to see the Wil Lou Gray School continue to be a provider of needs of our young people. There is a need for an alternative school, an alternate school setting for the needs of young people and the oppressed. Now this is not an easy task, ladies and gentlemen. This is something we must do. The Wil Lou Gray School is doing it very well, I'd like to believe it will continue to serve as a bridge for young people who are facing difficulties. I want to serve. I have the time; I have the interest. And I think in the area of policy, I can work with the Board to not only strengthen the institution, but make South Carolina stand up in this regard.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Any questions from any members of the committee?
REPRESENTATIVE LITTLEJOHN: The charge that he had was dismissed --
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Let me ask everybody to leave the room, please, except for the candidate.
SENATOR ALEXANDER: Mr. Chairman, before we go off the record, I move to go into Executive Session.
SENATOR SHORT: Second.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: We will move to go -- a motion to go into Executive Session by Senator Alexander. Second by Senator Short. All in favor, say "aye".
COMMITTEE: Aye.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Let's move into Executive Session.

(Executive Session 12:20 p.m. until 12:56 p.m.)
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Do I hear a motion to come out of Executive Session?
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: So moved.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: All in favor say "aye".
COMMITTEE: Aye.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Representative Littlejohn?
REPRESENTATIVE LITTLEJOHN: Mr. Chairman, I make a motion that we approve Dr. Hill's application for Wil Lou Gray.
SENATOR ALEXANDER: Second.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: All in favor say "aye".
COMMITTEE: Aye.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: All opposed? Let it be unanimous. Thank you for the applications. Let us now move on to the South Carolina State University. Any further questions as far as districts? First District, Seat One is Mr. Karl Green.
MR. GREEN: Evening.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: How are you doing? Sorry for any delay. And let me ask you a few questions.
MR. GREEN: Yes, sir.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Do you have any health-related problems that the Screening Committee should be made aware of that would prevent you from serving on the Board in a full capacity?
MR. GREEN: No, sir.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Considering your present occupation and other activities, would you be able to attend Board meetings on a regular basis?
MR. GREEN: Yes, sir.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Do you have any interests, professionally or personally, that present a conflict of interest because of your service on the Board?
MR. GREEN: No, sir.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Do you now hold any public position of honor or trust that, if elected to the Board, would cause you to violate the dual office holding clause of the constitution?
MR. GREEN: No, sir.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: How long have you served on the Board, Mr. Green?
MR. GREEN: Mr. Chairman, I've been on the board now for almost two years. I have a statement on file right now. I just want to briefly

I have perfect attendance on the board. I've never missed a Board meeting in these six years. We have a good team as Board members. I serve as Chairman of the Academic Affairs Committee. We're doing some new things. We have a new academic board going on right now which I head up as well. So, we are doing well and I'm glad to be a part of this team. And we look forward to even greater days at South Carolina State University.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Any question from the committee? Do I hear a motion?
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: Move favorable report.
REPRESENTATIVE LITTLEJOHN: Second.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Representative Breeland moved for a favorable report. Representative Littlejohn second it. All in favor, raise your right hand. It would be unanimous. I want to thank you for your service on that Board.
DR. CORBITT: Thank you, sir.

And as I read it and became concerned about the things that I was hearing about higher ed, I said, "Well, Shirley, maybe you need to do more than sit on the sidelines. Maybe you need to get in the game, and let's see if we can make things better for higher ed in South Carolina." Having been superintendent in two districts, I know K12 education, and I'm always excited when I see my students graduating from high school and moving on to higher and more interesting opportunities. But I always go to my high school graduations. And at graduations, I always see kids who have come back who had graduated two or three years earlier. And I'd say, "What are you dong now?"

Many of which have gone on to college, but had never completed the process. And as a result of that, I've always questioned, was it better for them to get an additional year or two years? When I look at what it cost and the impact that's going to have, and those kids didn't get the next level degree. So, that created another concern for me. And thirdly, I read recently about SC State marketing a new state of the mind philosophy. And I said, "That's great because that's what we need to do."

We need to look at what we're doing. Maybe be more comprehensive than we can be. Maybe we need to be specializing. We know that privatization is becoming a big issue in higher ed. We need to be soliciting funds and sources to help fund new and different initiatives. And we've got to look at the constituency.

You've got to look at the students at that university, and say, "Where should they be? What should we be doing for them?" Based on where they're going to live and what their aspirations are. Unfortunately, if we still have the same curriculum, and the same opportunities, and the same degrees that we had 30 years ago, chances are, we're missing out on some real opportunities for our students. And we've got to make sure we're creating rigorous, relevant opportunities for these kids. We've got to ignite a passion in education.

We've got to ignite a real need to learn. We've got to make a connection between successful citizens, successful workers, and quality systems. And that's, basically, why I want to be a part. I want to see those changes, and I'm excited about it.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Okay. Any question from any members of the committee?
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: A compliment. Dr. Martin and I worked on the Charleston County School District for a number of years. And she was principal of an elementary school about four blocks on the same street that I live on. And her energy level was always very high. So, I want to ask her, will she carry that same energy to South Carolina State, if she's elected to the Board?
DR. MARTIN: I am very excited about that possibility. And yes, I am real excited. And that's why I decided, when I read the article, I said, "You know what? It's very easy for me to sit on the sidelines and say how I would assist that leadership, or how I would help to initiate new programs and opportunities." I need to see if I can get involved in the event, yes.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Any other questions?

So I understand what students need to be marketable and what they need to be successful. I'd like to be able to be an advisor to the faculty, to the students, as well as, to the Board to enhance the position of South Carolina State University and causing the students to be more competitive in a very competitive world.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Thank you. Any questions from the committee?
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: One last question, Ms. Foster.
MS. FOSTER: Yes.
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: Working with BMW and knowing that South Carolina State University has this transportation center anyways, will South Carolina State benefit from the BMW area from your position or status as working with BMW?
MS. FOSTER: I look forward to introducing that concept. I think it would be a great, an enormous partnership because there's some commonality on both sides, and there's a win-win. College wins and BMW wins, as well. But the commonality should lend itself to being joint collaboration.
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: Thank you.
MS. FOSTER: So, yes.
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: Thank you.
MS. FOSTER: That's a possibility.
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: Thank you.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Any other questions for the committee?
SENATOR SHORT: Mr. Chairman, I was just going to make a comment. It's certainly not to take anything away from all the gentlemen who've appeared here today, but it sure is nice to see some women who are on some of these boards as trustees, and I congratulate you both for doing that.
MS. FOSTER: Thank you.
MS. FOSTER: Well, thank you.
REPRESENTATIVE LITTLEJOHN: Mr. Chairman, I just want to say, she's a Cherokee County gal; she's got to be good.
MS. FOSTER: That's right.
REPRESENTATIVE LITTLEJOHN:: Move in favor.
REPRESENTATIVE BREELAND: I second.
SENATOR SHORT: Second.

I have been there from day one. I reside in the community, less than five minutes away from the university. Number two, I am accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week. I have provided prayer; I have provided counseling in conflict. Number three is accountability. I believe as the institution continues to evolve, to grow, there is a networking growth that there is a thread that goes between the church and that university. So, I offer myself this day, to this body.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Any questions? Do I hear a motion?
REPRESENTATIVE BRADY: Move in favor.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: Second?
SENATOR SHORT: Second.
VICE CHAIRMAN KNOTTS: All in favor, raise your right hand. Thank you. The vote was unanimous. Thank you. I want to tell each and every one of y'all, we appreciate y'all coming and volunteering to serve and we wish you the best of luck.
