1. Call to Order

Meeting was called to order at 10:10 a.m.

Corrections were made to First Tier Salary Committee: George Assibey-Mensah will represent SPEA, Edmond d'Ouville & Shawn Carraher will represent Business and Nicholas Rosselli will represent Library.  Minutes were approved with corrections.

Close of nominations is March 10, 2000.  After closing a ballot will be distributed.  Hopefully, elections will be over the third week of March, then the Divisions can have their elections.  New Officers take over at end of semester.  Don Szarkowicz is trying to set-up on-line voting.

We are heading into round three.  What will happen here is there will be meetings on campus for students, faculty and staff.  There will also be off campus meetings for members of the community.  This time the meetings are narrowed down to discussion about Six strategic Goals plus a series of action outcomes.  These goals are:
 
1. Indiana University Northwest will have two endowed chairs in two identified areas of academic excellence in alignment with our vision.

2. Indiana University Northwest will have scheduling of classes and support services that are consistent with a set of student-centered principles.

3. Indiana University Northwest will have classrooms that are fully conducive to teaching and learning.

4. Indiana University Northwest will have a faculty recruiting process that is followed and supported by all academic departments that ensures academic excellence and, to the extent compliant with the law, a full-time faculty more reflective of the demographics of the Indiana University Northwest student body.

5. Indiana University Northwest will have initiated two projects that emanate from the Northwest Indiana Center for Communities and Cultural Advancement.

6. Indiana University will have initiated two projects that directly contribute to the health and well-being of the people for Northwest Indiana that will emanate from the Northwest Indiana Center for Health and Well-Being.
