Welcome. The new members are Christine Brown - Psychology, Mary Lou Hutter - Continuing Education, Jennifer Lomont - Health Information Technology, Jim Meier - Building Services, Louise Pruse - Consumer and Family Sciences, Clarence Tennis - Geosciences. Bob Krach and Anna Martin will serve as co-chairs.

West Lafayette. Bob Krach attended the June meeting of CSSAC at Calumet where the West Lafayette group and all the regional campuses met. West Lafayette is working on the inclimate weather policy and considering putting radios in all West Lafayette buildings so that all employees can be informed of weather emergencies.

Although Fort Wayne's CSSAC is not inclined to help West Lafayette in changing the definition of family, there is still a push for that change among some employee's there.

2001 is the year that Fort Wayne welcomes the other campus CSSACs. That meeting will be held on June 12. Louise Pruse will start planning the lunch.

OLD BUSINESS
