REPORT BY THE PRESIDENT

The President told the Board that the University is considering the establishment of an alcohol and other drug testing policy for certain health care providers. Most academic medical centers and a number of other employers, including the Martha Jefferson Hospital in Charlottesville, have drug testing policies of one sort or another in place. The University's plan would be to develop a policy to institute alcohol and drug testing at pre-employment and for cause. The President said the Board would be kept informed as the policy is developed.
