CENTRAL STATE UNIVERSITY CAMPUS WIDE MASTER PLAN
IMPLEMENTATION74
IMPLEMENTATION
The core implementation of this master plan, Phases 1-3, will occur incrementally over
the next ten years and will provide the appropriate facilities to support an enrollment of
5,000 students at the main campus and 1,000 students at the Dayton campus. The fourth
and final phase is intended to provide an outline of potential projects to be considered
beyond the ten-year, 5,000 student threshold. The implementation sequence proposed for
the Master Plan has been carefully developed to achieve the most critical priorities while
minimizing disruption. Furthermore, each project is structured in way that makes it fully
functional, independent of subsequent development.
Long-Term Vision Plan 10 -Year Plan (Based on 5,000 Students)
It is essential that each implementation project contributes to the key concepts of the
master plan. The creation of meaningful open space, pedestrian connectivity, and other
improvements that significantly impact and improve the quality of life on campus will
contribute greatly to the momentum of the plan.

IMPLEMENTATION75
Program development for a new “Library for the 21st century”:
The new library proposed in the Master Plan is envisioned as a technologically advanced
learning center, or “Collaboratorium”, that will provide teaching and learning spaces
that support interactive access to library resources, group learning and academic support
activities. Development of the special program for this building might be an eligible use of
Title III funds.
Funding and Partnership Strategies
Several implementation strategies are proposed in the following sections, to address both
programmatic and funding aspects of the master plan.
Institutional Advancement
CSU is a recipient of Title III Part B grant funds that “provide financial assistance to
establish or strengthen the physical plants, financial management, academic resources, and
endowments of the historically Black colleges and universities….” Currently CSU utilizes
Title III funds in support of the following initiatives: the Center for Academic Success,
Library resource enhancement, the Strategic Enrollment Management Plan, Strengthening
the Development Office, Counseling services, Pre-Law program development, and K-16
higher education access activities.
Title III funds should also be pursued to support institutional advancement activities directly
related to implementation of elements of the Master Plan. Two specific opportunities that
might be pursued include the following two programs:
Strengthening academic success and improving retention through a focused
program for student wellness and fitness:
This program would tie into the overall University efforts to promote well-being through
diet, exercise and healthy lifestyles, and would be linked to the on-going program to
increase retention through the Center for Academic Success. It is also directly related to the
Master Plan recommendations for improvement in the recreational facilities at CSU.
Strengthening institutional advancement activities through funding of a staff
position(s)to develop effective partnerships for co-funding needed physical
improvements:
This program would provide the ability to focus staff resources on identifying and
developing strategic partnerships with private or public entities that could participate in
funding improvements identified in the master plan.
The Collaboratorium will serve as an iconic anchor to the main Academic Quad as well as the historic Sunken Garden

Athletic, recreation and wellness facilities:
Strategic partnerships should also be pursued in regards to athletic and wellness facilities.
Local or regional partners may be required in the development of new athletic facilities
on the east side of U.S. 42. Potential partners may include local school systems, YMCAs,
fitness clubs, and amateur and youth athletic groups. Local health care providers may also
be potential partners for wellness facilities that align with their service lines.
Joint-Use academic / economic development facilities:
CSU – through the Foundation and University sponsored Tawawa Community Development
Corporation should consider ways to creatively program and fund the proposed new
University facility at the intersection of Brush Row Road and U.S. Route 42. This facility
is located within the proposed “Mixed-Use Village Gateway” and therefore offers an
opportunity to advance the development of this area to the benefit of both the University
and Wilberforce community.
Capital Funding & State Funds
State Funds:
It is anticipated that the major projects that are the result of CSU’s growing enrollment
will be supported through the State of Ohio’s funding formula for higher education. These
projects would include the new library and the gateway academic building.
Student Housing:
The participation of privately developed student housing on the campus will continue to
be necessary to meet the demand of enrollment growth. Based on the rate of enrollment
increases and the capacity of the development partners, multiple developers may be
required to reach the housing goals.

Research Facilities:
CSU is already involved in efforts to develop private enterprise and thereby foster economic
development through its National Environmental Technology (NET) incubator facility located
in the McLin International Center for Water Resource Management. That effort is funded in
part by the State of Ohio and in part by Battelle. Additional public/private partnerships will
be essential to developing research and incubator opportunities east of U.S. 42. Continuing
to expand partnerships that align private industry with the research strengths of the
University will be key to the creation of new private companies.
Nature/Outdoor Center:
The Master Plan identifies a proposed location for a Nature/Outdoor Center north of the
existing Green and Anderson Residence Halls. This facility could provide outdoor recreation
and team-building facilities and activities and could also provide access to historical
information about the natural and cultural history of Tawawa Woods, Wilberforce and
CSU. The facility might also have a program element linked to the CSU academic and
research activities related to water resource management. Should this multi-purpose facility
be open to the public, it could take advantage of funding from Greene County, as well
from grants focused on historical facilities and water management resource issues.
Infrastructure:
CSU should investigate the potential to fund future infrastructure improvements through
the energy savings that could be achieved by improved / upgraded energy systems.

Donor Gifts
While the economic downturn has had a major impact on giving, donor opportunities must
continue to be explored. High visibility projects should be identified that can be part of a
fundraising campaign. Projects like the installation of synthetic turf at the football stadium,
the Walk of Fame, and other pedestrian plazas are potential projects where naming rights
can be given for major donors.
Grant Funding
Grant funding should also be considered for many of the projects with strong ties to
environmental sustainability and physical wellness. Many grant opportunities are currently
available for projects related to water quality, ecological restoration, trails and transit
enhancements, and energy conservation. CSU should partner with Xenia Township and
Greene County to pursue these types of grants
Alternative financing mechanisms
While much if not all funding for major capital improvements will likely have to come from
the State, CSU should explore alternatives. “Bridge financing” – that is funding/financing
that is used to build facilities prior to the University obtaining all project funds may be
an avenue to explore. Entities such as the HBCU Capital Finance Program or TUFF – The
University Financing Foundation may offer vehicles to allow accelerated construction of
projects.
Phasing
The Following recommendations provide a strategy for implementing the projects necessary
to support a campus of 5,000 students and beyond. The proposed phasing plan outlines
conceptual budgets, descriptions and time frame for completion.
