Dr. Leroy Fanning joined us for a few minutes. A discussion followed
about the history of the policy for missed classes for student/athletes
traveling with their teams. The present policy is three
Monday-Wednesday-Fridays and two Tuesday-Thursdays but no one knew where
this was written. Sandy Zitkus agreed to find written documentation
verifying this policy.
Dr. Fanning suggested minutes should be stored in a centrally located
place. He also suggested we publish each committee's minutes on Raven.
