New Business:
•We are at the point to where we need to start looking at the attendance policy. The members are not showing up and we need to put together a letter because two had not shown up for one year and it could cause a problem of not having a quorum when we need to vote on something. Discussion followed. If everyone is okay with it, the chair will type up a letter and send it to them and wait for the response.
•New River is advertising for the following positions:
o VP of Financial and Administrative Affairs
o Financial Aid Director
o Registrar
o Director of Admissions
o Director of Public Relations
o Director of Computer Services
They also signed an agreement with Concord University. Discussion followed.
•Voting—Do we need to set up guidelines for the voting process? Discussion followed. It was suggested that we ponder for the next meeting. The Chair said that she would speak with Carol and Michelle to see if they have criteria. Discussion followed.
