Sorry for the additional email, but there will also be a Senate meeting on
October 26. Depending on when the UA Retreat is (the date should be
finalized in the next day or two), the meeting immediately following the
Retreat will be declared an optional (but encouraged) brainstorming /
legislation-writing session, rather than a formal meeting.
Best,
Paul

Hey everyone,<br>

I hope you've all had a great summer and are excited to return to the
UA this fall. <br>
<br>
We will be having our first Exec meeting Wednesday night at 7pm in the
UA office (W20-401). The agenda is as follows<br>
<br>
1) Introductions and Expectations for Exec<br>
2) UA-Wide Goals for the Fall<br>
3) Summary of the Initial Budget Task Force Report <br>
4) Possible Committee Restructuring<br>
5) Possible Financial Policy Changes<br>
6) Discussion of Committee Recruitment Needs<br>
7) Updating the UA Website<br>
8) Scheduling of Exec Meetings for the Fall<br>
<br>
<b>IMPORTANT: </b>Chancellor Clay and the student Deans (Colombo,
Hastings, Lerman) will be attending an Exec meeting probably the week
of 9/13 or 9/20 to discuss the Budget Task Force Report. We will be
inviting members of DormCon, IFC, and Panhel to attend this meeting as
well. As soon as we have finalized a date I will email everyone. <b>I
except the committee chairs to be in attendance and well-versed on
their sections of the report</b>.<br>
