Subject: Re: ORP meeting at WOU

Bob,

Thank you for arranging the meeting room.

I talked to TIAA's actuary this morning, and he can join us by phone and will prepare a PowerPoint presentation. Would you like my staff to work with WOU on logisitics for phone, computer hookup, etc? If so, please let me know, and I'll ask Connie Lange for her help. If you'd prefer to do it, the equipment needs will be for a screen and phone line. I can bring the computer, projector and speaker phone, unless you have those available.

Would you mind if Iinvite the ORP retirement committee and a few campus leaders to join this worksession? I'd like everyone who will be involved in looking on a legislative proposal to hear actuary Mike Heller's comments so we have a shared understanding of how plan contribution rates could be developed to meet our goals. I don't have a proposed guest at the moment, but hope we can develop a master list jointly next week.

Denise
