2 student members The
meeting was called to order and nominations were taken for the Chair
of the committee. Some discussion
occurred noting the chair’s responsibility this year as we are undergoing
NCAA review. David Young was
nominated and seconded and was elected by unanimous vote, with the
proviso that Matt Newman serve as recording secretary for all future
minutes. Matt generously agreed. The
Chair introduced discussion of the need to increase the composition
of the committee by two faculty members and the need to make one of
the administrative representatives non-voting. After some discussion
Mark Pope suggested that the A.D. position be non-voting as it carries
considerable administrative weight. The
question was called and the motion carried to increase the faculty
representation by two and eliminate voting status of the Athletic Director. The
vote was 7 in favor and one against. Discussion
of the need to review spring sport schedules took place. The upcoming
review was also discussed. Meeting
times were reviewed and it appeared that the Monday or Friday The
meeting adjourned a bit later than expected. I
want to thank everyone for attending. Respectfully
submitted, David Young |
