Tom Kernozek joined the committee. Scott Doberstein resigned from the committee. Garth Tymeson joined the committee. With the addition of three departments to the College, the entire meeting was spent identifying needed changes to the committee bylaws. Sections of the bylaws to be reviewed are: o Membership. With inclusion of ESHR, the committee has grown from 9 to 12 members. Next meeting, the committee hopes to vote on appropriate size and make-up (striving for both fair representation across the college and a manageable committee size). o Resignations and vacancies. How best to fill vacancies on the committee? o Core curriculum. As the College diversifies, is a core curriculum appropriate for such a wide range of departments? o Quorum. The bylaws currently have no statement as to what constitutes a quorum. Submitted by Steve Simpson
