Trustees grant president raise, approve IUC civil service guidelines

At its Nov. 30 meeting at BGSU Firelands, the board of trustees expressed resounding support for President Sidney Ribeau following its annual review of his performance.

Board President Michael Marsh, in announcing the trustees’ decision to grant the president a 3 percent raise, cited their “extreme satisfaction with the state of BGSU and with BGSU Firelands, including the capital campaign and other successes.” The $9,139 increase brings Ribeau’s annual salary to $313,764.

The centennial campaign reached its goal of $120 million that day, Trustee Bob Sebo announced, adding that, with a year to go, the campaign would continue unabated because of several projects that still need to attain necessary funding.

Also at the meeting, the board took a step that will help to insure shared governance at the University when it approved Inter-University Council of Ohio guidelines regarding implementation of any work rule changes related to House Bill 187.
