The meeting began at 12:45.

The members introduced themselves to Ken Kruger and Matt Trippel, the new reps from the Student Senate.

Steve H. then passed around a list of the AAC’s Current Standing Committees and Liaisons, for updating.

Committee/Liaison Reports:

· Faculty Senate – Jim Farrell noted that the FS was examining incivility expressed in student course evaluations.

· Other subcommittees have not met yet. It was agreed that, barring some pressing issue, we would use the November meeting time for subcommittee meetings. This will give some momentum to the Equity, Safety, and Awards initiatives.

Athletic Director’s Report:

Marty Scarano discussed his first three months on the job, with emphasis on the following:

· His management approach

· Fundraising and facilities plans

· Revision of Policies/Procedures Manual

· Sports program evaluations

· Life Skills Program

There was some discussion of student support of athletics events and ways to improve it.

The next meeting of the AAC will be on December 19, 12:45

The meeting was adjourned at 1:45pm
