Open Discussion

1. Lisa reported that the Faculty/Staff Development Day on March 4, 2005,
will not be a Wo Innovation in Learning Day (WILD).  Other campuses will
be focusing on assessment by Ramsey is leaving the theme decision up the
HCC's committee.  Lisa and Jerry will be part of the planning committee.  
Dolores mentioned that more publicity is needed for this day. Last year a
lecturer was unaware of the event and this shouldn't happen again.

There will be no meeting, unless important issues arise that would
necessitate one, in December. The next meeting will be scheduled for
January 2005.

The meeting was adjourned at 10:00 am.
