III. Old Business

A. Ongoing Objective #5

Mr. Stern and Ms. Harris met with Dr. Voigt on July 14th concerning this objective. Mr. Stern urged the members to review this document and asked if there is a special statement this body would like to make to the UPT. Mr. Reed thought that we should make a statement so that the opinion of the Administrative Senate is represented. Other suggestions were made to include other groups and results.

Since there is no deadline to submit anything more on the objective, it was agreed to wait and see what develops.

B. Fringe Benefits Committee Elections

Gail Howard was elected representative for Academic Affairs, and Nan Davis was elected to represent Student Affairs on the Fringe Benefits committee for this year.

IV. New Business

A. Revised Proposed Guest Roster

The proposed schedule of speakers was reviewed, and some dates will be left open for timely topics. Terry Utterback and Tom Weatherall will be our guests at the September meeting.

B. Committee Reports:

1. Rec Sports & Athletics - Although there have been no meetings, Mr. Reed reported that four candidates for the position of Athletic Director will be interviewed on campus this week. The search committee will follow up with a recommendation.

2. Parking - There has been no response to our recommendations yet. Mr. Calamia asked Mr. Stern if he would re-submit our request to Dr. Eiseman if no reply is received in the next two weeks.

V. Open Forum

Mr. Stern asked about the progress on the new residence hall. Mr. Reed said that the furniture began arriving on August 2nd. Mattresses will be delivered soon and all should be ready on time. Students will be able to move in on the expected dates.

The meeting was adjourned at 2:47 p.m.
