“The University board shall not be authorized to act in connection with the following without the approval of the member: Acquisition of capital assets not included in the annual capital budget required; the approval of a sale of significant assets, a merger, consolidation, reorganization, dissolution or liquidation with respect to the University, provided that, "significant assets" shall mean assets that are necessary for the operations of the university, unless such assets are sold in the ordinary course of business, pursuant to approved budgets, or replaced with substantially similar assets; the incurrence of any indebtedness or modification or any existing debt facility; provided, however, the University may enter into operating leases in the ordinary course of business from time to time without the consent of the member; invest in or acquire any debt or equity securities issued by any third party, other than investments within the guidelines of the investment policy established for the University consistent with the social responsibility and general prudent investment guidelines for all the member's affiliate corporations and routine investment of excess cash or reserves; amend the articles of incorporation of the University; set up a subsidiary of the University or otherwise enter into a joint venture with an unrelated third party, or invest in or own all or a portion of the shares, securities, or equity interest in another entity; select or modify any business name or logo of the University, including any assumed or D/B/A names; or take any action not in the ordinary course of the University's business or any action that may adversely impact any of the member's rights as a member of the University, whether pursuant to the Illinois not for profit corporation act or under these bylaws.”

“The University did not have any committees with the authority to act on behalf of the governing body.”

“Prior to filing the Form 990, it is reviewed and approved by the University's finance, audit, and compliance committee. The review involves an in-depth presentation by University staff to the committee. The committee will also review the overall accuracy and completeness of the 990. Prior to filing the Form 990, the draft return is also provided to the remaining voting members of the University's governing body. They will review the draft return for overall accuracy and completeness. The president and CFO will also review the 990 for overall accuracy and completeness.”

“Any director, officer, committee member, or employee who has a financial or personal interest in a contract or other transaction presented to the University board or a committee thereof, or to the University president or other authorized officer for authorization, approval, or ratification, shall make a prompt and full disclosure of such interest to such authorizing body or officer prior to such a body's or officer's formal consideration of and action on such contract or transaction. Such disclosure shall include any relevant and material facts known to such person about the contract or transaction which might reasonably be construed to be adverse to the University's interest. If the disclosure is made to the University board of a committee thereof by a University board of committee member, such body shall determine, by a majority vote (at a meeting at which the person with the potential conflict is not present, except to the extent necessary to respond to questions regarding the potential conflict and does not vote), whether the disclosure shows that a conflict of interest exists or may reasonably be construed to exist. If a conflict is deemed to exist the director or committee member having the conflict shall not vote on, nor use his or her personal influence on, nor be present or otherwise participate in, the discussions or deliberations with respect to such contract or transaction. Such person shall not be counted in determining the existence of a quorum at any meeting where the contract or transaction is under discussion. The minutes of the meeting shall reflect the disclosure made, any vote thereon and, where applicable, the abstention from voting and participation, and whether a quorum was present. Each director, committee member, officer, and key employee of the University shall complete an annual disclosure form as may be adopted from time to time by the University board, for the purpose of disclosing any interest of such individual in any contract to which the University is a party or in any transaction, business relationship, or other matter in which the University is involved. It is noted that board members are given the opportunity to disclose any conflicts at each and every board meeting. It is further noted that there is also an annual disclosure process.”

“Compensation for the University's president is determined and approved annually in an executive session of the board of directors in accordance with written policies and procedures adopted by its board of directors. The University uses market data pulled from compensation figures of local and like-kind higher education institutions to establish base salaries, benefits, and total compensation opportunities. The board of directors' review process and documentation are formalized in a letter to the VP of Student and Employee Affairs. The University participates in the CUPA-HR Salary Survey each year and completes a compensation study on even years. The Resurrection University Board of Directors retained SullivanCotter to complete a compensation review for the President. The review was conducted in Fall 19 - Spring 20. The firm released a Resurrection University President Opinion Letter in January 2020.”

“The University utilizes input from reviews of compensation figures of like-kind higher education institutions to establish base compensation for other officers and executives. This compensation is included in the operating budget which is reviewed and approved by the board. The University engages with an independent consultant to perform a thorough compensation review of the executive team from time to time.”
