  • whether the university appropriately manages its capital portfolio additions, renovations, replacements, removals and maintenance as well as its current and expected space needs; â¶Ä¯â€¯ 
  • whether ÌÇÐÄÊÓÆµ University appropriately manages its deferred maintenance and the funding attributed to it; and â¶Ä¯ 
  • whether the university has appropriate and effective oversight of the management of its capital portfolio. â¶Ä¯
