A. Charge: No problems

position needs to be filled. Unlike past
years, the SGA representative attended meetings and contributed to the
committee.

when the committee can meet; however there were no meetings at which we lacked
a quorum. It was difficult finding a
meeting time in the spring that fit the schedules of all members.
D. Responsibilities: No problems.
E. Activities: The committee created a calendar for the
2009-2010 academic year, as is its charge.
