meet.
D.
Responsibilities: The committee fulfilled its
responsibilities, with the exception of choosing scholarship recipients, which
it is prepared to do once the necessary data are available.
E.
Activities: The committee’s workload is
relatively low; the committee’s accomplishments were appropriate to its charge.

to the Chair of the Faculty and/or Faculty Senate for improving the
effectiveness of the committee.
