South Dakota Public Universities: Developing Minds, Communities, and Our Economy

The public university system contributes in vital and substantial ways to South Dakota’s economic growth and well being. The public universities produce a competitive workforce, while also building a more robust economy for South Dakota. The challenge ahead is to carefully plan as South Dakota emerges from the current economic downturn. Higher education and economic development go hand in hand. The public university system’s priorities are to:

• Enroll and graduate more citizens. o Armed with education and skills, they will help build South Dakota’s economy. • Attract new residents to South Dakota. o With an aging demographic, it is essential to attract more young people to South Dakota as our future workforce. • Leverage university-based research and development. o Research initiatives contribute signifi cantly to South Dakota’s economic growth. • Grow graduate programs. o Improve South Dakota’s low ranking of citizens with graduate or professional degrees.

The national data are clear. Education pays. Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics demonstrate that increasing levels of education pay off in the form of higher earnings and lower employment rates.

Defi nitions - Postsecondary education at less than the associate degree level = workers can generally achieve average job performance after completion of technical or vocational education ranging in length from a few weeks to more than a year but less than the associate level degree. Associate Degree = workers can generally achieve average job performance after completing a postsecondary education program granting an associate degree and usually involving about two years of full-time equivalent academic work, but less than four years. Bachelor’s degree = workers can generally achieve average job performance after completing a postsecondary education program granting a bachelor’s degree and usually involving four years. Bachelor’s degree and work experience = workers can generally achieve average job performance after completing a postsecondary education program granting a bachelor’s degree plus work experience in the fi eld. First professional degree = workers can generally achieve average job performance after completing a postsecondary education program granting a professional degree and usually involving at least six years of full-time equivalent academic study, including college study prior to entering the professional degree program.

Another example of how higher education pays for South Dakota is that our college graduates are more fi nancially able to pay. Graduates from South Dakota public universities have consistently exhibited low default rates on their student loans. The table below shows that South Dakota has a much lower student loan default rate than the rest of the nation.

Executive Summary

Why is enrollment growth important?

Postsecondary education will become increasingly important as our state and national economy adapts to changing circumstances. Occupational information supplied by the U.S. and South Dakota departments of labor reinforces this fact: • Occupations requiring some type of postsecondary education in SD will grow by 15.9%, generating more than 68,000 job opportunities from 2006 to 2016. • 60% of future jobs will require training that only 20% of today’s workers possess. • 85% of today’s jobs are classifi ed as “skilled”. • A more highly educated population: • Attracts and retains more high-tech business and industry, • Lowers unemployment rates, • Lowers health costs, • Improves voter participation and civic engagement, • Results in better education for children, • Raises aggregate earnings and income potential (Education Pays 2010, The College Board)

How is the enrollment growth occurring?

Enrollment at South Dakota public universities has increased by almost 8,000 students since 2001, during the same time there has been a decrease of over 2,000 enrollments in the K-12 system. A focus on non-traditional students has contributed to increased enrollments. Non-traditional students are defi ned as students over age 24 who had interrupted their studies earlier in life, or students of traditional age but attending colleges or programs that provide unconventional scheduling to allow for other responsibilities and pursuits concurrent with attaining a degree.

The unduplicated headcount enrollment of students off campus was 24,508.

• Distance 17,916 • University Center Sioux Falls 3,580 • University Center Rapid City 2,597 • Capital University Center 415 Student Retention Page 28

The university system is retaining students (freshman to sophomore year) at 76%. Nationally, the student retention rate is 66.7%.

Affordability and Access Pages 33-40

Tuition and Fees • The total cost for an undergraduate resident to attend one year of college at a South Dakota public university is $13,127. Among the surrounding states this is the third lowest in the region. • South Dakota public universities have the lowest total cost for residents to attend graduate school among surrounding states. The total cost for one year of graduate school is $12,785.

Student Aid • Non-obligation aid (grants and scholarships) grew by more than 200% since FY2000. • Foundation/institutional scholarships grew 170% since FY2000. • Obligation aid (loans and work study) increased 111% since FY2000. • Average loan amount for a graduate with a baccalaureate degree in 2010 was $24,986.

South Dakota Opportunity Scholarship • As of Fall 2011 there are 2,984 Opportunity Scholarship recipients attending SD public universities. • Across the state there are 3,605 recipients at all eligible institutions. • 1,229 students were fi rst-time recipients of the scholarship in Fall 2011.

How to keep college affordable while offering quality programs?

• Effi ciencies - The public university system continues to streamline and re-evaluate priorities in order to better serve our students and to expend tax dollars as effectively and effi ciently as possible.

• New Initiatives - The public university system has taken on several initiatives and reprioritized the expenditure of student tuition and fees and state appropriations, addressing critical investments in higher education and focusing on the future of the state without new state resources.

• Recession Period - During a recession with jobless rates on the rise, people tend to turn back to education to improve their skills or to be trained for a new career. We expect enrollments to rise and it is important to be prepared to serve all students.

Economic Development - The total state investment of $24.6 million in Research Centers since Fiscal Year 2005 has returned $179 million in federal, state, and private research investments awarded back to the centers. The estimated economic impact of these investments to the state of South Dakota is $258 million, based upon a multiplier of 2.4 and assuming that 60% of the dollars remain in the state.

Base Utility Budget Shortfall – The universities have been dealing with a shortfall in funding for academic facilities for more than two decades. The cumulative shortfall to date is $18.1 million.

Research Support – The system has redirected approximately $5 million of base funds to match new state funding in order to fund nine new Ph.D. programs in support of former Governor Rounds’ 2010 Initiative to grow research in South Dakota and move the economy forward.

Infl ation - The Board of Regents agreed to drop the instructional formula as a budget tool in exchange for receiving targeted appropriations and infl ation on the base. Since FY98, the regents have received no infl ationary dollars on the state operating expense base, causing a loss of purchasing power of about $3 million.

Full-time Enrollments at Historical High – The universities are serving a total of 26,719.5 full-time equivalent students across the state. This is an all-time record high of students and adult learners being served. Strong headcount and FTE enrollments have been achieved with no increases in state-support funding for enrollment growth since 1998. The system has become more effi cient and effective with the limited state funding available.

Fiscal Year 2012

No State Support of Enrollment Growth – The state used to provide additional support when enrollments grew, much like the formula used for K-12. The state has not provided new dollars for the growth of over 781 full-time equivalent state-support students. This represents a shortfall of state-funding of $3.8 million.

Serving Non-Traditional Students – The system is serving 5,175 full-time equivalent students without state funding support. This is also a record high. Distance education and delivering courses to new locations like Rapid City, Pierre, and Sioux Falls is totally supported with student tuition and fees.

Facilities Investment – The system has made investments in the state education facilities a high priority. Students pay 100 percent of the maintenance on public higher education facilities – this is an annual investment of over $11.7 million. Students also cover annual bond payments of around $13 million for major renovations and new academic facilities. Newly implemented student fees, costing a full-time student $143 per year, pay for $8.5 million of critical deferred maintenance and $32.5 million of science lab upgrades. Since 1997, the institutions and foundations have raised private and grant dollars totaling $174 million for academic facility improvements and replacements. Student fees have also fi nanced investments of over $272 million into residence halls, student unions, wellness centers and supporting infrastructure since 1997. Most states fund capital investments above base education funding.

Salary Competitiveness – In order to retain and recruit quality faculty, the Board of Regents and students started the salary competitiveness program in FY99. South Dakota was 17 percent behind the salaries of regional institutions at the start of the program. As of FY09, SD had closed the gap to 5 percent. As of FY11, with no salary policy for two years, we have fallen to 7 percent behind. Without the program, South Dakota would be 34.3 percent behind the regional salaries. Of the $28 million now funding this program, the state general fund provided $1.6 million, the institutions redirected $5.8 million (cutting 115 faculty and staff), and tuition/fee increases provided $20.6 million.

Administrative Systems – The system invested $6.3 million into the purchase and implementation of a new Human Resource and Finance Information System (HR/FIS) with no new state resources. This system replaced an aged system that was no longer supported by the vendor. The new system is a robust, integrated system that was implemented with minimal modifi cations, and implemented as a single instance for all of higher education. This means we have one fi nance and payroll system for all of the system and not separate installations.

Desire2Learn Learning Management System – The system implemented a centralized learning management system to support the academic mission of the public universities in 2008. The implementation was off the shelf, eliminating expensive modifi cations and was done as a single installation. This allowed for a single student log-in, allowing students taking courses from multiple institutions to access all of their courses at once rather than having to log-in through the sites of each of the institutions. Implementation of the single installation, centralized system has resulted in signifi cant savings over the alternative decentralized model that was in place, with no additional funding from the state.

Research pays off in economic impact.

Historical Fall Headcount

Fall State-Support Headcount Enrollment

Fall Self-Support Headcount Enrollment

Fall Total Headcount Enrollment

Enrollments are as of fall census date. State-support enrollments are supported by appropriations from the general fund and state-support tuition. Self-support courses are supported by tuition paid at the higher self-support tuition rate. Students who enrolled in both state-support and self-support courses are included in each section. Students enrolled in more than one university appear in each university’s column. The total section is unduplicated by funding—a student enrolled in both state-support and self-support courses is counted only once. Thus, the column is NOT the sum of the university columns because each student is counted only once. Students registered for zero credit hours because they were using services related to a degree in progress are included.

Residents from throughout South Dakota attend public universities and are also recipients of the Opportunity Scholarship. The fi rst fi gure below displays the total state investment represented in general funds appropriated per headcount enrollment for South Dakota public higher education. General funds per headcount appropriated for FY12 equal $3,393, which was a decrease from the $3,417 appropriated in FY11 despite stable enrollments. The legend to the left depicts the total number of high school graduates from each county who are enrolled in the six public universities and the medical school. Total state investment does not include appropriations for AES, CES, ADRDL, and the SD Opportunity Scholarship.

South Dakota Opportunity Scholarship Recipients

Enrollment HistorySD Public K-12 Schools and University System

Many high school students are capable of university-level academic work. Completing university-level courses while still in high school may allow students to earn their degrees sooner and thus reduce the cost of higher education. For many high school students, a university course may be the most effi cient use of their time.

The South Dakota public university system offers several “off-campus” options to students seeking post-secondary educational opportunities through means other than coursework delivered on residential campuses. Students may complete courses via distance delivery (e.g., internet, DDN, correspondence) or at one of the state’s three university center locations: Sioux Falls (UCSF), Rapid City (UCRC), and Pierre (CUC). Together, these four educational projects serve an increasingly prominent role in the state’s higher education landscape. Distance-based education has, in particular, expanded dramatically in the South Dakota system over the most recent fi ve-year period.

Notes: Because distance data are identifi ed by delivery method and university center data are identifi ed by delivery location, fi gures captured under each header are not mutually exclusive. In some instances, students, credit hours, and course sections reported under one header also may be reported under another. Headcount fi gures represent the number of unique student IDs each year for a given site; students were included in headcount tallies on the basis that they had enrolled in at least one course delivered through a given site. Figures for the number of courses offered are based on counts of course sections after the removal of cross-listed sections; using this counting method, table values refl ect the total number of unique courses (as opposed to sections) offered each year.

Advanced Placement® Exams in South Dakota

The Advanced Placement® (AP) program administered by The College Board offers high school students a chance to study courses that are equivalent to fi rst-year college courses. Following instruction in special AP classes, honors classes, or independent study, the students can take examinations that demonstrate they have obtained the knowledge and skills of comparable college courses. When those students later enroll in a college or university that accepts AP credit, they can present their AP scores. Currently, all South Dakota public universities award credit for acceptable exam scores. The chart below shows the number of high school students taking AP exams and the number of exams taken in 2000 through 2011.

ACT - American College Testing

The ACT Assessment is comprised of four curriculum-based achievement tests designed to assess critical reasoning and higher-order thinking skills in English, mathematics, reading, and science. These tests refl ect students’ skills and achievement levels as products of their high school experience and serve as critical measures of their preparation for academic coursework beyond high school. ACT Assessment results are used by postsecondary institutions across the nation for admissions, academic advising, course placement, and scholarship decisions. The academic preparation a student receives in high school correlates with success in college. ACT research indicates that students who prepare academically by taking a core high school program consistently score higher on the ACT Assessment than those who do not.

Note: Completion of the ACT high school core is based on student reports of the courses they had completed or planned to complete. The numbers do not sum to the total because some students fail to provide information. The total number of ACT scores exceeds the sum of those with and without the core.

Sources: ACT Assessment 2011

ACT Core: English, 4 years; Social Sciences, 3 years; Mathematics, 3 years; Natural Science, 3 years.

In 2009, the Board redefi ned Policy Goal #1 as Education Attainment to stress the important goals of both increased student access and degree completion. This goal is driven by four important objectives which emphasize the critical need to: 1) improve college and career readiness for South Dakota high school graduates; 2) more opportunities for traditional and non-traditional students; 3) improve retention & completion; and 4) decrease the net migration. This goal, and the four objectives that accompany it, support the broader educational and economic development goals for the state. During the past seven years, even though the total number of high school graduates has declined by more than 847 students compared with the number produced in FY03, the public university system has continued to retain a larger number of students. Specifi cally, 257 more students attended the public university system in 2010 compared to FY02, despite a decline in the total pool of K-12 graduates that same year by 847 students.

The table below shows that when comparing the total number of graduates produced in 2004-05, the system grew by 105 graduates the following academic year. When compared against this baseline set in 2004-05, the system has continued to produce more graduates each year, with 634 more undergraduate degrees in 2010-11 than had been generated just six years earlier. This has resulted in an average of 409 more graduates over the past six years than there would have been if the system rate had been held constant at the 2004-05 product levels. The 18% growth in graduates with undergraduate degrees over the past six years has been a function of the increased FTE enrollment growth during this same time period, which has also grown at the rate of 9%.

What becomes of students who complete degrees from the South Dakota public university system? Examining the placement outcomes of graduates is vital for understanding SDBOR’s contribution to the state’s human capital. In 2011, SDBOR research staff undertook a study to examine the extent to which Regental degree completers ultimately remain in South Dakota following graduation, either as a worker or as a continuing student. Data for this project were gathered from three main sources: Regents Information Systems (RIS), the South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation (DLR), and the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC). First, a combined roster of all degree completers from the 2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08, and 2008-09 academic years (n=20,716) was generated by RIS staff. Next, in partnership with DLR, state employment data systems were queried to determine the job placement outcomes of the degree completers identifi ed in the RIS roster. Those records for which no match was found in the DLR database were submitted to the NSC to gather enrollment information on any students attempting collegiate coursework after (Regental) graduation.

The results of the analysis are encouraging. The table below indicates that 58.1% (n=12,034) of Regental graduates were placed in South Dakota, either by employment or by enrollment. Among those completers matriculating from South Dakota, the SD-placement rate was 69.4%; among all other completers, this fi gure was 29.9%. In practical terms, this means that roughly 70% of in-state students graduating from a Regental institution will remain in South Dakota after graduation, either to work or to pursue additional postsecondary education. The same can be said of nearly 30% of out-of-state students, meaning that approximately 3 of every 10 out-of-state students the Regental system is able to attract will ultimately remain in the state following graduation.

Altogether, 63.4% (n=13,124) of the n=20,716 queried degree completers were found to be either employed in South Dakota or enrolled in a post-secondary institution (in any state) one year after graduation. More specifi cally, 52.1% of Regental graduates had been hired into the South Dakota workforce, while an additional 11.2% had enrolled in further collegiate coursework.

Note: For record searches performed by both the DLR and the NSC, matched records were sought for a one-quarter (three-month) window one year following the student’s graduation date. Any employment (or enrollment) data returned for this time period – including part-time employment/enrollment – were included in the analysis. Job placement data from DLR included information for individuals employed in South Dakota only. Regental graduates employed outside the state were not captured by this data source.

Teacher Program Candidate Praxis II Performance

SD Board of Education Administrative Rule 24:15:02:08 State Certifi cation Exam Requirements established the requirements for applicants for certifi cation. To qualify for teacher certifi cation, applicants in South Dakota must earn at least a baccalaureate degree, complete an approved program of teacher education, and pass the Praxis Series tests for their certifi cation area. Candidates who apply for an initial certifi cation after July 1, 2005, are required to take and meet or exceed the qualifying scores of both the appropriate content specifi c Praxis II test(s) and the Praxis Principles of Learning and Teaching test that most accurately matches their level of preparation. Praxis II tests are administered by the Educational Testing Service (ETS), which has developed the two testing formats required in South Dakota: 1) Subject Assessments, to measure general and subject-specifi c teaching skills and knowledge; and 2) the Principles of Learning and Teaching (PLT) test to measure student general pedagogical knowledge at four grade levels: Early Childhood, K-6, 5-9, and 7-12. In regards to Praxis II test(s), SDBOE policy specifi cally states that “An applicant must submit verifi cation of passing scores on the state certifi cation exams for each subject or area authorization and for the pedagogy exam for each age or grade span for which they have completed an approved education program and for each subject or area authorization for endorsement programs for which applicant is applying.”

Candidate performance is depicted using Praxis II test(s) scores for test-takers within the system during the 2009-10 academic year. SD Board of Education qualifying scores were compared with candidate scores on each of the Praxis II tests to establish pass rates which are then reported by institution, as well as for each subject and PLT knowledge test. During the 2009-10 academic year, 98.4% of candidates passed their Praxis II subject and PLT knowledge tests. Students who do not meet the SDBOE qualifying score on their respective exam are not allowed to take part in their student teaching experience. Thus, all candidates are required to schedule and pass the Praxis II exam prior to their student teaching experience. The chart below provides program pass rates for all test-takers at each program during the past academic year.

South Dakota Opportunities – Research InfrastructureExperimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research – South Dakota is one of 30 jurisdictions eligible for competitive awards under the EPSCoR programs of the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Department of Energy, and the United States Department of Agriculture. The NSF awarded South Dakota EPSCoR a fi ve-year, $20 million Research Infrastructure Improvement (RII) award on August 15, 2009, to support continuing development of South Dakota’s research infrastructure, highly skilled technical workforce, and technology based economic development efforts. SD EPSCoR is a signifi cant component of South Dakota’s efforts to increase its research capacity and its ability to successfully compete for federal research funding. This RII award is an extension of a three-year $6.75 million NSF RII award that SD EPSCoR received in 2006. South Dakota’s research efforts focus on one of the most critical issues facing our country today: energy generation and conversion. The project involves nine institutions: South Dakota State University, Augustana College, Black Hills State University, Dakota State University, Oglala Lakota College, Sinte Gleska University, Sisseton Wahpeton College, South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, and the University of South Dakota. The researchers are creating new devices in the area of photo-active nanoscale systems and addressing research challenges associated with photovoltaics and solar energy, directwrite electronics, and the use of nanostructured materials for converting solar energy into chemical fuels. The research program includes efforts to develop a new class of solar cells that is capable of converting light in the near-infrared region to the visible region, thus recovering a portion of the energy that is currently lost. Efforts are also being directed to the development of low cost processes for solar cell production, such as printing or roll-to-roll painting. Nanostructured materials will be developed to mimic photosynthesis as an additional approach to improve device effi ciency. EPSCoR program revenue from all of the participating federal agencies in FY 2011 currently totals $8.43 million and was matched by a state commitment of $600,000, plus individual campus investments.

Research Centers – The state of South Dakota has invested $24.6 million to create and support eleven Research Centers from FY2005 through FY2011. This investment has yielded $179 million in grant and contract revenue from other sources, resulting in a cumulative economic impact of $258 million through FY2011. With the original research centers well established, the Research and Commercialization Council in September 2008 created a new center at Dakota State University. The National Center for the Protection of the Financial Infrastructure builds on DSU’s nationally recognized leadership in information security and South Dakota’s fi nancial services industry to create a national center that advances the security and safety of the nation’s fi nancial infrastructure. The center was created with the involvement of the Federal Reserve Bank, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, National Security Agency, and the U.S. Treasury. The Department of Homeland Security is a partner in this center.

In January 2009, the Research and Commercialization Council approved funding for four more research centers to capitalize on unique opportunities for South Dakota to develop leadership positions in focused areas. The four centers, to be supported over fi ve years, are:

The Center for Detecting Rare Physics Processes with Ultra-Low Background Experiments, led by USD at the Sanford Underground Research Facility at Homestake, is enabling physics researchers at South Dakota’s public and private universities to contribute to research and science education activities under way at Homestake. It is building the infrastructure needed to produce super-clean materials for ultra-low background experiments conducted at the Sanford Underground Research Facility, and in other facilities around the world.

Two centers at SDSU, the Center for Biological Control and Analysis by Applied Photonics and the Translational Cancer Research Center, are partnering with Avera Sanford Research and USD to link basic research activities under way at SDSU in the development of innovative materials, chemicals, and processes with clinical research activities in order to more effi ciently move biomedical discoveries from the laboratory to the bedside.

The fourth center is the Repair, Refurbish, and Return to Service Applied Research Center at SDSMT. It is involving a wide range of industry partners in South Dakota and across the nation, along with the Department of Defense. It is designed to develop, certify, and implement innovative methods to extend the useful life of military equipment. The center will not only help to save the defense department billions of dollars, but could also provide another mission for Ellsworth Air Force Base, help expand existing South Dakota businesses, and potentially attract several large defense contractors and manufacturers to South Dakota.

With modest investments, these research centers are positioning South Dakota to capitalize more fully on major opportunities associated with development of the Sanford Underground Research Facility at Homestake, the $400 million Sanford Initiative, and the need to refurbish and return to service aging military equipment.

Average Faculty Salaries by Professional RankFY11

Source: Surrounding area regental institutions

The Board initiated a salary competitive program to increase the salaries of faculty and non-faculty exempt employees at all Regental institutions in 1998. This program was an attempt to compete at the regional level. Higher education must be competitive in its salary package to retain quality staff for graduate programs, federal grant positions, compliance issues, professors and other instructors.Because of this competition, the Regents have tried to attract and retain staff and faculty to ensure limited turnover and high quality education.

To initially address the situation, the Regents developed a three-year plan to increase the funds available for salary distribution by approximately 10 percent above the normal state salary adjustment. The 10 percent was generated with reductions in staffi ng levels by eliminating 114 positions, a redirection of general funds of $1.6 million to salaries, and an increase in student fees and ancillary charges for services. The three-year plan was completed in FY01 with salaries moving from 16.6 percent to within 8.3 percent of similar faculty in surrounding states. In order not to lose ground gained by the salary competitiveness plan, the Board has continued to increase student fees annually to bridge the gap between surrounding states’ salary increases and the South Dakota salary policy.

This past year (FY11), the salaries of the faculty and exempt staff trailed those of counterparts in regional market at approximately the rate of 7.02 percent (based on the College of University and Professional Association of Human Resources Compensation Survey) and nationally at the rate of 36.91 percent (based on Oklahoma State University Compensation Survey).
