Excerpted Minutes from the April 11, 2002 Meeting of the Budget Steering Committee

Present: Jonathan Brand, Bob Grey, John Kalkbrenner, Mark Montgomery, Mickey Munley, Jack Mutti, Todd Reding, Susan Schoen, Helen Scott, Paula Smith, Marci Sortor, Jim Swartz, Frank Thomas, and Karen Voss.

The meeting began at 7:35 a.m. Jonathan Brand opened the meeting by inviting discussion of any of the questions/answers on the Budgetory NFEAQ's document previously distributed to the committee. He and Paula Smith emphasized that their hope was to focus on the substance of the questions, and not on the grammar or structure of them. A lively discussion ensued about several of the questions.

Jonathan Brand asked the Committee for further discussion of outstanding budget issues. Brief comments were made with respect to the dining service issues of Bob's, the Expresses, and the Grill; the market research project; and the issue of faculty positions. Jonathan also mentioned that the next meeting will be scheduled in about a month and the agenda will include a visitor to speak about his/her operations/program at the College and also an assessment of this year's process. He thanked all members present for their assistance with the Budgetory NFEAQ's document.
The meeting adjourned at 8:27 a.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Susan M. Schoen
