They indicate costs have increased 50 % over the course of the past two years. They are also upset about the mandatory meal plan which does not offer kosher food or options for students on restricted diets so in order to spend their money they end up buying vast quantities of candy. Will the costs continue to rise every year? Report from the President -The President thanked everyone for all their hard work this past semester. He has asked Human Resources to offer effective stress reduction workshops in the Spring to assist staff in dealing with stressful situations and will also address nutrition and its effects on stress. Thank you to everyone for completing the three top priorities that he laid out at the beginning of the semester. He stressed to everyone the importance of completing the Sexual Harassment training, the Chancellor has made it a term for employment. The Legislature passed the law that requires everyone to complete two hours, every other year, of Sexual Harassment training, so please finish it A.S.A.P. Construction updates: -The library is running on schedule. -The second phase of student housing is in on schedule, it should add approximately 445 additional beds.

Lucas would appreciate everyones support of the proposed Academic Master Plan so that the President can approve it and forward it to the Chancellors Office. Report from the Chair -Chair Ballman attended the Statewide Senate Chairs meeting last week where the main topic of discussion was the budget process at each campus.
