Report on Dean Melnick Meeting
Dean- reviewed melnick’s meeting.  Jan changed stipulations we had understood before.  
She gave the impression that we could get a place as student group, but now it appears they are doubtful the our group will get a place.  The time table may be lengthened with these new developments, but Melnick was supportive of the program and the student group idea.  We have the Melnick’s ear now and may have to do some additional work to align with the outline he and Jan Oliver provided.

Jo – we are no longer trying to please Johnson Hall and can focus on Melnick, which means addressing the academic mission of the project.

Dean – outside of what Melnick wants

Genevra – is the project’s affiliations with architecture really going to be a long term relationship and sustainable.

Dean – CASL can be a real benefit for the arch depart. Because it is so innovative.  That is a key 

Jo – we need to talk more about our plan for the meeting we plan for 

Margerat – we need to put together a better list of courses and detailed information about the classes that will tie-in.

Kris – maybe we should form a subcommittee for academic interest to report to Melnick.

Academic Subcommittee
Patty, Genervra, Susan will collect information from faculty for a presentation to Dean Melnick.

Genevra – are there more people that we should contact.  
Jo- Political Science,


Officers:
Margaret – reviewed the positions we currently have in the by laws 

James – would like to change the definition of the webmaster to include a more detailed list

Elections – 
Genevra we don’t really need a director because it creates a hierarchy.
Jo – concurs we don’t really the titles.
Jo- elections are not really necessary, but task must get completed.  We could have a better way of making sure things happen when we say they will happen.
