Approved by the Alumni Board on its August 2, 2007 Conference Call

We will ask the University Board of Trustees to cooperate with us in good faith on the following:

1. Maintain the on-going operation of Antioch College past June of 2008, even at a reduced level.

2. Keep the College facilities in use, halt steps to shut the College and suspend all consideration of liquidating Antioch College assets

3. Establish a self-governing, independent College Board of Trustees with members initially selected by the Alumni Board in collaboration with the College President and other key stakeholders.

4. Give full consideration to the business plan that the Alumni Board will develop through a planning process and with the assistance of experts in the field, which will be presented in advance of the October University Board of Trustees meeting.

5. Hold a joint Alumni / University BOT meeting in October to discuss the implementation of the business plan and set timelines, tasks and a reporting calendar to assure the robust operation of Antioch College for the next 100 years.

We will also ask that the University Board of Trustees give full consideration to these issues:

* The maintenance and use of College buildings and other facilities
* Potential McGregor bond default if the College is closed
* Impact on College and University accreditation if the College is closed
* Moral, ethical and legal commitment to the Coretta Scott King Center as a core function to be maintained in any reduced level of College operations
