Ms. Dawson will email Ms. Anderson with this update. Dr. Soltz reported that he is really enjoying the Executive Interns. His intern, Kristine Geckle, is an actual trained mediator, so the Provost's Office has been using her to research collective bargaining issues. Dr. Soltz also distributed a copy of the guest column by Sid Morrison that appeared in the Daily Record on October 26 for the Cabinet to review if they had not already seen it.

There was great faculty participation and the feedback has been very positive. Mr. Reilly added that things look good for fall quarter 2005.

Mr. Corona distributed the travel expense reports for the first quarter. Business and Financial Affairs had their division retreat on Tuesday.
