There will be a dean for each college.

(2) The chief executive officer of the university will be the president, and the president will be elected by and hold office at the pleasure of the board of trustees. The duties of all other officers will be determined by the president.

(B) The president.

(1) The president will be the executive head of the university, responsible for the entire administration subject to the oversight of the board of trustees. The president fosters and promotes learning, discovery, and engagement as primary aims of the university. The president will enforce the bylaws of the board of trustees and interpret the proposals and actions of the faculty and other staff and administration for the board of trustees.

(2) The president may attend all meetings of the board of trustees, except executive session if requested by the board, and address to the board matters of institutional importance. The president is the official medium of communication between the university, the board, and its committees, transmitting proposals from the faculty and staff, either as a group or as individuals, to the board. The president will, upon receipt of written communications to the board from any of the faculties or any member thereof, or from the staff, or students or from student organizations, transmit to the board of trustees all written communications addressed to the board. This tenet will not be interpreted, however, as in any way limiting the right of communication between the employees and students of the university and the trustees.

(3) The president or the president's designee will preside at meetings of the university faculty and may call meetings of the university faculty, the faculty senate or the faculty of any of the colleges, departments, divisions or schools. The president will be charged with the general supervision of all the university's interests, activities, and personnel, and will be a member ex-officio of each of the faculties, and may call special meetings of any of the faculties or joint meetings of some or the entire faculty.

(4) The president is entrusted with the fostering and promotion of the relationships of the university with the public, with other institutions of learning, with the alumni of the university, and with its faculty and student body.

(7) The president will recommend to the board of trustees for its approval the creation and abolition of colleges, departments and major divisions of the university. The president will employ and remove, subject to the approval of the board, all personnel as are necessary to carry out effectively and efficiently the mission and the operation of the university.

(8) The board of trustees may authorize the president to receive, review and act appropriately upon all constitutions, rules, policies, regulations and amendments and may adopt, amend, repeal these constitutions, rules, policies, regulations and amendments per rule 3364-1-10 of the Administrative Code, and for faculty bodies pursuant to paragraph (B) of rule 3364-1-10 of the Administrative Code.

(9) Subject to the authority vested by law in the board of trustees, the authority and responsibility for the internal administration of the university is delegated to the president. Any authority or responsibility of the president may be delegated to another university officer or to any other member of the faculty or staff of the university. Delegation of major areas of authority or responsibility will be reported to the board of trustees. Although the president may delegate authority to appropriate officials, the president will retain final authority and responsibility for administration of the university.

(10) At the first board of trustees meeting of the academic year, the president will review the administration's goals and objectives of the prior year, propose goals and objectives for the ensuing academic year, and discuss the university's well-being and challenges. The goals and objectives will include quantifiable objectives for enrollment, finance, hospital operating margin, graduation rates, research, institutional advancement, and other such goals and objectives as the administration and the board of trustees may agree upon.

(C) The deans.

Each dean of a college will be charged with the general supervision of its interests and will represent the college at commencement and at all other public academic, professional, and other occasions. The dean will recommend to the president, through the chief academic officer, appointments to, promotions and tenure of, terminations and non-renewals of the college's faculty and staff. The recommendations regarding these matters will include a report from the faculty or from any committee which has advised the dean.

The dean will call meetings of the faculty or staff from time to time and will preside at the meetings. The dean will be responsible for the establishment and maintenance of proper standards of instruction for the college and will recommend to the university faculty (or its elected representatives) degrees, honors and awards, persons who have met the prescribed conditions.

The dean will see that the rules and regulations applicable to the university faculty and by the faculty of the college are effectively and fairly enforced and will sign all diplomas, certificates, requisitions and other papers relating to the college. The dean will take precautions for the preservation and safekeeping of all equipment and other property listed in the inventory of the college as are appropriate.

(1) The university internal auditor shall be appointed by the board upon the joint recommendation of the president and the finance and audit committee of the board of trustees, and shall hold office at the discretion of the board.
