  6. D. King started his report by reminding members to please make corrections, additions, and add e-mail addresses to the attendance list.

The next FA meeting will be held on Tues., October 10, 2000, which follows a Monday class schedule.

    SPAB Reports are available for each council to review, and to recommend action as they relate to the purview of each council. Assess what follow-up needs to be taken by governance.

    Proposed bylaw revisions drafted by PPC will be on subsequent FA agendas.

    Any vacancies left on Councils and Committees after today’s meeting will need to be filled with recruited nominees or volunteers in order to have a full slate of functioning groups as soon as possible.

    The Faculty Senate Executive Committee voted to exclude campus governance leaders from Faculty Senate planning meetings. Following our unanimous objections at the Fall planning meeting on Sept. 14-16, the Faculty Senate Exec. Committee reversed itself and will recognize the C. G. L. group as a caucus which will meet at each planning session and our convenor will sit on the Faculty Senate Executive Committee.
