Webb determined that an insufficient number of assembly members were present to constitute a quorum necessary for conducting assembly business. Several faculty members left the room in an effort to urge some of their colleagues to join the meeting so the vote could proceed. While waiting committee reports were given:
General Education Council: G. Bleeker briefly discussed the progress of the General Education Council in revising the general education program goals.
Banner Steering Committee: G. Wyatt reported that changes to email and Buzz In are forthcoming and that considerable information about these procedures had previously been distributed to the faculty.
At this point more assembly members arrived providing for a quorum.
Motion to approve the document “College Performance Review Committee” was offered by D. Moore with D. Zelmer offering a second. The motion passed.
Continued discussion of the awards procedures ensued. It was resolved that the Dean’s Advisory Council will continue to consider the issue.
