THE PRESIDENT REPORTS ON THESE GOALS AT EACH BOARD MEETING. THE PRESIDENT IS ALSO FORMALLY EVALUATED BY THE BOARD AT LEAST EVERY FOUR YEARS OR AT ANY TIME DEEMED DESIRABLE BY THE BOARD. THE EVALUATION IS CONDUCTED BY AN OUTSIDE EVALUATOR WHO IS APPOINTED BY THE BOARD WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE PRESIDENT. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE SERVES AS THE PRESIDENT'S COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, AND BASED ON THE ANNUAL EVALUATION, MEETS IN EXECUTIVE SESSION TO REVIEW THE PRESIDENT'S COMPENSATION PACKAGE. THE PRESIDENT'S DUTIES, TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT, AND COMPENSATION ARE COMMITTED TO A TEN (10) PAGE "EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT" (CONTRACT). THE FIRST NINE (9) PAGES OF THE CONTRACT CONTAIN SPECIFIC DUTIES AND TERMS. A ONE (1) PAGE APPENDIX IS UPDATED EACH YEAR WITH SALARY AND ANY SPECIAL CONDITIONS.
