A chapter by chapter review is underway and the Board will receive completed chapter reviews and any suggested additions and modifications on an on-going basis throughout the current academic year. As to the committee information, Diane hopes to have this update completed for the thirty-two (32) standing committees and eight (8) presidential advisory committees before the completion of the Fall Semester.

He handed out the attached preliminary outline which indicates the integration of the planning activities of several component, instructional and student service areas.
