Cyndi chaired the meeting.

Subcommittees:

Transportation Subcommittee-Annie reported that one idea that was discussed was changing some of the carpool parking spaces to more convenient places on campus instead of just on 13th where they presently are and go unused. There still has not been a bike coordinator hired. Potential applicants should contact Tom hicks.

John had some suggestions to present to this subcommittee to increase ridership on LTD.

Earth Week-did not meet.

Public Awareness Subcommittee-Todd asked again that everyone look at the WebPage. It is at http://darkwing.uoregon.edu~eic/index.html

Environmental Subcommittee-Cyndi reported that ways to approach different department to implement the new policy are still being discussed. Several suggestions for the sub parts of the CEP were provided.

Old Business:

J.R. is still trying to meet with Dave Hubin to discuss the Paper Policy. He will keep attempting to schedule a meeting with him.

Doug suggested a subcommittee to address the Riverfront Research Project. He would also like to help facilitate (with other groups he is currently working with) a campus-wide discussion regarding the RRP.

No New Business.
