Guest Speakers – a.
Darryl Sims, Athletics Director – Academic Game Plan, there is a faculty and student athletic component to it. Make sure student athletics the faculty fellow our student athletics to ask faculty to be a faculty fellow to work with that team integrated in what we do, recognition of student athletics of the work that they have done in the classroom. Gap between athletics and the student athletics some faculty attendance at games but a gap there between the two, faculty advisor in the student club and a team would have someone in similar support the team and make sure they are succeeding student success academically as well, pull faculty in to bridge that gap. 3.5 or higher to get that recognition at graduation or higher, we want to encourage and push all aspects that mingle together, most of those very good and bring them on board and will roll this out next year bumps along the way mainly positives not a lot of negatives, present this to all of you. Western
New England and pulled things from other schools. Pagan Student Alliance, few negatives those negatives, we have been firm on the 3.5 positive message with the faculty, started to assume this is just about student athletics they are not getting an extra benefit than anyone else in this room, the things they will be exposed to already exist, first generation kids some of this true by our student body as well.
This is not about a special interest and just recognition. Novak: Anyway monitor the involvement of the faculty invited by the team to be inviting them and to the coach and that faculty allow. Student Athletics to start to use some of these systems like the and now pushed back and heard from other student athletics that they are great services.

MUN: I am Titan when it was released in the classroom and address the faculty directly not only those we interested but
keep them involved. We want to hear from those that have concerns, our goal is to have all of our faculty members in one shape or another, need 100% but this will keep us in front of people after a year or so, track the information b.
