THE CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR S DOCTORAL INCENTIVE PROGRAM ANNUAL REPORT July 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The CSU Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program (formerly called the CSU Forgivable Loan Program) is designed to increase the pool of individuals with the qualifications, motivation, and skills to teach the diverse student body enrolled at California State University campuses. The program provides loans to graduate students who are pursuing full-time doctoral study and are interested in teaching in the CSU system. Participants who obtain postdoctoral employment in a CSU instructional faculty position may have these loans completely forgiven after five years of full time faculty employment. Participants who do not obtain teaching positions in the CSU must repay the loans under terms similar to other graduate student loans. As of June 2011, the program had loaned roughly $40 million to 1,872 doctoral students who attended over 200 different universities. As of June 2011, 1,055 loan recipients had successfully completed their doctoral studies. Among participants who earned their doctoral degree, 57% (600) subsequently obtained employment in a CSU instructional faculty position. PROGRAM OVERVIEW The Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program (CDIP) provides financial assistance to individuals who show promise as doctoral students and are interested in CSU instructional faculty positions. The purpose of the program is to increase the pool of individuals with the qualifications, motivation, and skills to teach the diverse student body in the California State University. While enrolled in full-time doctoral study, selected participants may borrow up to $10,000 annually through the program, up to a limit of $30,000 over a five-year period. Students are eligible to apply for the program at any point during their doctoral studies, including the year in which they are applying to doctoral programs. Applications to the Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program are submitted through a CSU campus. The campus evaluates these applications and recommends the most qualified applicants for further consideration by the campus president. A systemwide committee then reviews the applications that are recommended by the campus president, and makes selection recommendations to the Chancellor. Selected participants are eligible for funding in the academic year following their acceptance to the Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program. Applications to the program are judged on two criteria. The first criterion focuses on the applicant s promise as a doctoral student and his or her interest in teaching the diverse student population in the CSU. Substantial weight is given to the applicant s academic record and professional qualifications, the quality of the proposed doctoral program, the applicant s demonstrated interest in teaching the diverse student body in the CSU, and the plan of support by the CSU tenure track faculty mentor. The second criterion focuses on the academic discipline in which the student is pursuing his or her degree. Primary consideration is given to candidates 2

whose proposed area of study falls where CSU campuses anticipate the greatest difficulty in filling potential future instructional faculty positions. A more detailed description of the selection criteria is available in Appendix A (p. 12). Participation in the program is not limited to individuals with a prior connection to the California State University. However, applicants must be formally sponsored by a full-time, tenure-track member of the CSU faculty. As part of the application process, a plan of support by the faculty sponsor and/or the sponsor's academic department is jointly developed with the applicant. The relationship between participants and their CSU faculty sponsors vary greatly according to individual needs and preferences. In some cases, the sponsor may provide advice and academic support and may participate in joint professional activities with the student, such as collaboration on research projects and joint attendance at professional conferences. The sponsor is also a potential link to CSU academic departments in the student's field of study and may serve as a valuable reference in the search for a CSU faculty position. Sponsors are volunteers who receive no compensation or assigned time for their services. Acceptance into the Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program does not guarantee that participants will obtain employment in a CSU instructional faculty position. Conversely, participation in the program does not obligate anyone to accept CSU offers of employment. If a participant obtains a full-time instructional faculty position at a CSU campus after completion of the doctoral degree, the loan principal and interest are "forgiven" at the rate of 20% of the original loan balance for each year of service. The entire loan amount will be forgiven after five years of full-time instructional faculty service in the CSU. Individuals with at least half time CSU teaching appointments are eligible for forgiveness at the rate of 10% for each year of service. Amounts forgiven by the CSU, including foregone interest, are subject to federal tax reporting and withholding. If a recipient does not obtain a CSU faculty appointment, the loan is payable over a fifteen-year period. The annual interest rate starts to accrue 12 months after the completion of the doctorate or after the recipient ceases to make satisfactory progress toward the degree. There is no penalty for early repayment of funds borrowed through the program. For most of the history of the program, the annual interest rate was 8%. However, following an internal review, the rate was lowered to 5% for funds borrowed beginning with the 2003-04 fiscal year. CDIP APPLICANT AND PARTICIPANT DATA Through 2011, 3,994 applications to the Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program have been reviewed by the systemwide selection committee. Of this group, 1,872 persons were accepted into the program, entered approved doctoral programs as full-time students, and borrowed CDIP funds. (In any given year, a small number of applicants are accepted into the program but never become loan recipients, either because they were not accepted into a doctoral program or because they decided not to accept the loan.) An additional 60 individuals were selected in Spring 2011 for participation during the 2011-12 academic year from among 85 applicants. 3

After individuals are selected into the program, they are asked to report their gender and ethnicity. Table A (p. 13) provides data on selected participants who chose to report their gender and ethnicity to the Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program. Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive participants may enroll in approved doctoral programs at any accredited university. However, the majority (73%) pursue their studies at a California institution (see Table B, p. 14). Among private universities, the University of Southern California has attracted the largest number of participants (175), followed by the Claremont Graduate School (145). Additionally, 604 participants have enrolled in doctoral programs at campuses of the University of California. Among recipients attending out-of-state institutions, 21 have enrolled at the University of Washington and Arizona State University, 18 at the University of Oregon, the University of Utah, and the University of Texas, Austin, 15 at the University of Arizona, and 12 at Harvard University. Table C (p. 15) shows the area of study of CDIP participants from 1987-2010. With 537 students listing their field of doctoral study as education, special education, or teacher education, 29% of all CDIP recipients have gone into education fields. Psychology, with 156 students, has been the most popular discipline outside of education. The following is a summary of the status of the 1,872 participants who borrowed CDIP funds through the 2010/2011 fiscal year: 1056 (56%) had received the doctorate degree. 153 (8%) were at the dissertation stage. 43 (3%) had recently completed their course work and are preparing for exams. 36 (2%) were continuing course work in their doctoral programs. 25 (1%) were deceased (including two who had earned their doctoral degree and one of whom had earned full cancellation for teaching as a tenure-track CSU faculty). Thus, about 69% of program participants have either completed the doctorate or are still enrolled in a program. Table D (p. 16) displays the number of CDIP participants who borrowed funds, earned doctorates, and subsequently obtained employment in CSU faculty positions, sorted by CSU campus. CSU Los Angeles has sponsored the largest number of participants, followed by Sacramento, Long Beach, Northridge, and San Francisco. Table E (page 17) displays the number of CDIP participants hired by each campus subsequent to earning the doctorate. The Sacramento campus has the largest number of program graduates who ended up working for the CSU. 4

Table F (p. 18) shows the total number of participants, participants who earned doctorates, and participants obtaining CSU faculty employment, by the year in which they entered the program. More than half (59.2%) of the 1,056 participants who have completed their doctoral studies have obtained some form of post-doctoral employment within the CSU (56.8% in instructional faculty positions, and 2.4% in positions not eligible for loan cancellation). The following information applies to these 1,056 participants who had completed their doctoral studies by March 2011: 291 (27.6%) currently hold tenure-track instructional faculty appointments in the CSU. 67 (6.3%) have had CSU tenure-track faculty appointments, but have resigned from these positions. 110 (10.4%) have temporary faculty appointments: 41 on a full-time basis, and 69 with part-time appointments. 132 (12.5%) have had - but do not currently hold - temporary faculty appointments. Among them 77 have earned some loan cancellation, including 13 whose loans have been totally cancelled. 25 (2.7%) have (or have had) full-time, non-faculty appointments in the CSU. Eight of these individuals have earned partial loan cancellation for teaching part-time in the CSU. 431 (40.8%) of them have not (yet) been employed at a CSU campus since earning their doctorate. Note that the 600 participants with CSU employment have collectively provided an approximate 4,500 years of service to the CSU since earning their doctoral degrees. Through 2009/10, 281 participants had their loans entirely forgiven by fulfilling the 5-year full time (or 10-year parttime) teaching service requirement. An additional 222 participants had earned at least one year of loan forgiveness, and many of these individuals will continue to earn forgiveness during the 2011-12 academic year. PROGRAM FUNDING, LOAN FORGIVENESS, AND COLLECTIONS ACTIVITIES The Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program is funded from the California State University Lottery Revenue Budget. The program currently has an annual budget of $2 million. Throughout the history of the program, the majority of CDIP expenditures from Lottery Revenue funds have been for loans to recipients. Since the Program began in 1987-88, the CSU has loaned approximately $40 million to 1,872 participants. Annual loan disbursements rose gradually from $517,000 in 1987-88 to $2.7 million in 1994-95 and have gradually been reduced to roughly $1.6 million per year in recent years. Each year, a relatively small amount of the CDIP budget is spent on administrative expenses. In 2004-05, administrative expenditures were approximately $200,000. This includes the cost of loan collection activities by Campus Partners (the billing agent for the program) and other administrative expenses at the Chancellor s Office. 5

By the end of the 2009-10 academic year, roughly $10.2 million in loan principal had been forgiven to 511 participants who accrued one or more years of loan forgiveness. For the 2009-10 year alone, 123 individuals received loan cancellation. The amount of loan principal cancelled was approximately $600,000. In addition, provisions of the Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program allow forgiveness of loans of deceased or permanently disabled participants. By 2009/10, the program had forgiven loans of thirteen deceased participants and ten participants with a documented total and permanent disability that precludes their earning wages in any capacity. As of spring 2012, 679 individuals were in billing, including 12 individuals who had filed for bankruptcy. However, CDIP loans typically are not dischargeable through bankruptcy proceedings. An additional 511 individuals had paid their accounts in full, while 318 individuals had received full loan cancellation. Through 2009/10, more than $10 million in principal and interest had been repaid by participants in the program. In fall 2002, the program began reporting seriously delinquent borrowers to the Franchise Tax Board on an annual basis. This allows the program to claim a portion of any California tax refund that the delinquent borrower is eligible to receive. In addition, this action has resulted in several borrowers contacting the program in order to make arrangements to rehabilitate their loans. Efforts to collect past due accounts have increased in recent years with the assistance of the Chancellor s Office Accounting division. In 2009, NCO Financial was retained to collect on past due accounts. This resulted in a number of borrowers with financial problems contacting the CDIP staff to rehabilitate their delinquent loans. As the program gains more experience with the collection of past due accounts, it will explore additional methods to secure repayment from financially able borrowers. PROGRAM HISTORY The Forgivable Loan/Doctoral Incentive Program was proposed in August 1985 by Dr. James Rosser, President of CSU, Los Angeles, and Dr. Stephen Horn, then President of CSU, Long Beach. Dr. Bob Suzuki, a member of Dr. Rosser s administration at the time, helped develop the proposal. With some modifications, their proposal was endorsed by then Chancellor Ann Reynolds and approved by the CSU Board of Trustees in 1986 as a pilot program for 1987-88. The general purpose of the project was to enhance the quality of the California State University by promoting the diversity of the CSU faculty. Currently, the program does not use underrepresentation in its selection criteria. However, the original emphasis of the program was to encourage doctoral study in fields in which women and minorities were most severely underrepresented, such as the natural sciences, mathematics, computer science, and engineering. 6

In 1987, 60 of 269 initial applicants were admitted to the new Forgivable Loan/Doctoral Incentive Program. In July 1988, a CSU Task Force on the Recruitment and Retention of a High Quality Faculty endorsed the program as the "ideal program" to increase the supply of ethnic minority and women doctorates in underrepresented disciplines. The Task Force recommended that $60 million be made available to support the CDIP over a twelve year period. Task Force recommendations were adopted by the Trustees and referred to the Chancellor s Office for implementation. In 1990 persons with disabilities were added explicitly to the target group. The eligibility of white males to participate was recognized in the same year with the funding of a white male applicant in nursing, but this fact was not reflected in the application materials, which retained language referring to women and minorities until changed in the 1996 application cycle. In 1991, the Office of the Chancellor contracted with The Telein Group, Inc. to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the program. The assessment highlighted the support found throughout the CSU system for the program and suggested a number of administrative changes to improve its operation which were subsequently implemented. In 1994, the State Controller s Office reviewed the loan cancellation aspects of the program and determined that CDIP loan cancellations should be reported for tax purposes as additional income earned by CSU faculty who qualify. In addition, it was determined that the CSU should withhold federal and state income taxes, as well as Social Security and Medicare taxes, on the amounts cancelled. This income tax reporting and withholding requirement was initiated with the 1994-95 academic year. Assembly Bill 364 (Joe Baca), chaptered in 1997, exempts CDIP cancellations from California income taxes. In 2005, the program implemented a number of administrative changes to streamline the loan request and funding processes, including the ability for participants to download most required paperwork from the program website. These changes allow participants to receive funding from the program much earlier in the academic year than was possible in years previous to 2005. In 2008, for the first time, the application was made available on-line. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS In the past several years, the program has focused on improving communications with loan recipients and increasing on-line access to resources. Recipients now receive additional loan disclosure information in compliance with federal regulations. Nearly all program documents have been rewritten for clarity, and all loan recipients now must sign and return a form that explains, What Happens if I Default on My Loan? Recipients now receive step-by-step instructions on how to complete required documents on an enhanced web site that became available in 2009. Recipients also have on-line access to models that explain loan cancellation and the associated tax consequences. 7

In August of 2006, a Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program Enhancement Proposal was approved for implementation. The intent was to supplement campus efforts already underway to plan for faculty succession, by funding graduate students who not only have the potential to succeed in a quality doctoral program and qualify for an instructional faculty position, but who also have the skills, motivation and experience to teach our increasingly diverse California State University student body. The intent of the proposal was to expand and enhance the program both by increasing the number and quality of the participants, and by creating structures and activities to increase the effectiveness of the program and increase the likelihood that participants will become faculty members at the CSU. The main objectives of the proposal were to: Increase faculty involvement in all aspects of the program Increase campus administrative involvement in the program Increase support for the faculty mentor of the participant Increase professional development support for participants Actively recruit faculty sponsors and participants. These activities were to be accomplished with a multi-faceted approach. The proposed enhancements are outlined below along with progress made toward those enhancements. I. Hire a program director to develop, implement and monitor policies, procedures, guidelines and infrastructure to increase effectiveness of the program. Dr. Robin Marion, an Associate Professor of Teaching and Learning at CSU San Marcos, was hired in August 2007 as the first Faculty Director of CDIP. Dr. Marion was a CDIP loan recipient who received her Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. A second Faculty Director of CDIP was appointed in Fall 2011. Dr. Alison Wrynn is a Professor of Kinesiology at CSU Long Beach. She was a faculty mentor in the CDIP program. II. Establish a CDIP Advisory Committee. In consultation with the program coordinator and the Senior Director of Academic Human Resources, an advisory group was established. The group took the form of a monthly working group made up of individuals with either program experience (as mentors, recipients, or selection committee members), or with an interest in the program and with faculty pipeline issues. The group was established in 2007 to advise the Director on development of the program enhancements. The group met monthly through the 2007-08 and 2008-09 academic years and bimonthly in 2009-10 and 2010-11, providing advice on such aspects of the program as application criteria, development of the mini-grant program, and creation of the Community Commons. This group will be reestablished in 2012 as new priorities emerge for the group to work on. 8

III. Develop an orientation program for participants/sponsors to assist new participants in navigating program requirements, loan forgiveness, and information for fostering a successful mentor/recipient relationship. In order to reach the largest number of participants, an online community called the CDIP Community Commons was created to accomplish both an orientation function and to increase support and connection with the program for participants and mentors. The Commons resides in the teaching commons of the MERLOT (Multi-media Educational Resource for Learning and Online Teaching) interface. The Commons concept was presented at the MERLOT International Conference in Minneapolis, MN in August 2008, tested with various constituent groups over several years, and made live in Fall 2011. It provides extensive information on all components of faculty life in the CSU, as well as guidance for individuals seeking faculty careers. As a web based resource, it is available to all interested parties and is beginning to attract notice around the country as a unique resource for preparing future faculty. In early 2012 the first CDIP webinar on successfully completing the CDIP application was held. This webinar will be available to all CDIP campus coordinators, faculty mentors, and other interested faculty and students. After hosting the webinar live it will be posted on the CDIP website. IV. Develop seminars for participants on managing their loans, succeeding in graduate school, publishing and applying for jobs. The CDIP Community Commons addresses teaching, research, service and career talk issues, in addition to having the orientation section. The MERLOT interface is set up as a guide to best practices, and is an interactive peer reviewed archive of teaching materials. This site was released in Fall 2011. It will be updated on an ongoing basis by the CDIP Faculty Director. V. Recruit faculty on each campus to coordinate activities to promote all aspects of the program. In the fall of 2011, CDIP campus coordinators were provided with lists of faculty on their campus who are former CDIP scholars. The coordinators were also provided a form letter to send to these faculty members to invite them to get involved on campus with the CDIP program either at an informational session or by serving as a faculty mentor. VI. Develop a mini-grant program for joint professional development for participants and their CSU faculty sponsors. The mini grant program was established in 2009. Approximately 200 participants and their faculty mentors were invited to apply for the 2011 edition of the CDIP Mini Grant program. A total of 43 applications were received in the Chancellor s Office by the deadline. A mini-grant scoring rubric was created and a review committee was established. Dr. Matthew Llewellyn and Dr. Melissa Dyo, two faculty members who are former CDIP scholars (one from CSULB the other from CSU, Fullerton) assisted with the reviews as did Anastasios Chassiakos, Director of the California Pre-Doctoral Program. A total of 40 applications received funding. Nineteen received the full funding that they requested, 21 received partial funding and 3 were not funded. 9

In addition, four faculty mentors were funded to work with their CDIP scholars at conferences or on their home campus. Most funding requests were for travel to conferences to present research and/or engage in professional development activities. However, a number of students also requested support for joining professional organizations, travel to the campus of their faculty mentor to either present in classes or to conduct research, and equipment purchases to conduct research. In order to enhance the application process the application is being revised and updated and a webinar will be created to assist students and their mentors in the production of their applications in 2012. The table summarizes the amounts awarded in each of the past two years. Year CDIP Mini-Grant Funding Summary, 2010/11 and 2011/12 Amount Requested by Participants Amount Funded to Participants Amount Requested by Sponsors Amount Funded to Sponsors 2010 $102,444 $59,089 $12,673 $1,089 2011 $90,825 $64,341 $3,885 $3,885 VII. Develop a recruitment strategy/program for participants and sponsors. In consultation with the Working Group, a marketing plan was developed that included visits and regular email communication with the 23 campus coordinators to elicit and share best practices, regular communication with and professional development of recipients through the community commons, and heightened profile of the program through highlighted participants who have become CSU faculty. The plan addresses a multi-faceted approach working on increasing the number of participants (grad fairs, diversity forums, improved recruitment practices), increasing the number of mentors (best practices shared across campuses), increasing the profile (involvement of faculty and administration through the and the advisory council, and more systematic distribution of information), and increased access (placing the application online, providing example personal qualification and collaborative plan statements online). Dr. Marion visited most campuses during her tenure as director, and co-hosted meetings of CDIP coordinators in northern and southern California in fall 2009. The coordinator meetings were repeated in fall 2011. Each participant received a binder that included program resources, statistics on participation by their campuses, and a CD with PowerPoints and program documents to assist them in preparing their own recruitment materials. Web based presentations on the application process for the CDIP were held in January 2012. These webinars were made available on the web site for reference by applicants and for use by campuses. We will also begin to conduct webinars for current CDIP scholars on job search strategies (2012-2013). In addition we will begin to survey CDIP participants who have competed their doctoral degree each year in order to develop strategies for programmatic improvements. 10

Since the campus coordinators play a pivotal role in identifying and recruiting candidates, Laurie Faure initiated a series of regular posts to the coordinators, highlighting important dates, sharing successful recruitment strategies, and informing coordinators of program developments. CDIP continues to collaborate closely with the Pre-Doctoral Program, supporting the California Forum for Diversity in Graduate Education and involving the Pre-Doctoral Program Director in CDIP activities. Finally, since 2010 the CSU has published a Pipeline newsletter that highlights the CSU s efforts to build the faculty pipeline through the Pre-Doctoral Program, CDIP, and the Diversity Forum. CDIP has contributed regularly to this newsletter, highlighting current participants as well as graduates who have moved on to CSU careers. 11

Appendix A Selection Criteria for CSU Forgivable Loan/Doctoral Incentive Program Two criteria are used to make selections to the Chancellor s Doctoral Incentive Program: 1. Potential as a doctoral student and interest in teaching a diverse student population. Considerations include: o The applicant's academic record and professional qualifications. o The quality of the proposed doctoral program. o The applicant's relevant background, experience, skills, and motivation needed to educate the diverse student body in the CSU. These experiences and characteristics may include experience working with persons with a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives, research interests related to educating an increasingly diverse student body, and experience in a variety of cultural environments. o A Collaborative Plan of Support jointly developed by CSU Tenure-track Faculty member(s) and student that will enhance the student s academic experience. The Collaborative Plan of support may include academic support, joint professional development, networking activities and other similar activities. 2. Academic Discipline: Primary consideration will be given to candidates whose proposed area of study falls where CSU campuses anticipate the greatest difficulty in filling instructional faculty positions. Information from a variety of sources may be considered when evaluating this criterion.
