2. Approval of the Minutes of the March 3, 2000 Meeting
The minutes were approved as distributed.
3. Elections
April 7, 2000 is the deadline for submitting ballots. After the election results are known, divisions will hold their elections for
Executive Committee representatives, and we will have to run an election for an "at large" member of the All Campus
Promotion and Tenure Committee, and for membership on the Teaching Load Review Committee.
Shortly thereafter we have to send out the choice ballot so faculty can indicate their preference for committee assignment
for next year.
May 1, 2000 marks the end of the Vision Process and also the moratorium on the Post-tenure Review issue. This will be
one of the most important issues we'll take up in the next year.
