INTRODUCTIONS

INFORMATION ITEMS

Kate held several focus groups before Thanksgiving break that

             focused general on the building and personal feedback.  She

             will be meeting with individuals in the building to  
forward info

             along.



We are close to purchasing, with Student and Campus Life, access to the

             Student Voice services for assessment.  It is a robust  
service that

             will allow hand-held/in-the-field and web based assessment.



We hosted 4 visitors from Qatar this week.  They were here to look at  
how

             we do “green”.



We have moved Diwali Night to the list of preferred events for access  
purposes.



We are examining the issues that emerged holding activities that are  
“games of

             chance” in a permitted alcohol location.



We partnered with the Counseling Center to install 4 SAD lights in  
the building.



We are fine-tuning the special exceptions process with CAES.



Fall ACUI Conference – We hosted the Regional ACUI.  We were  
involved in

presenting 4 sessions, had multiple tours of the building, and  
overall folks

were in awe!



Social Justice Mural – We continue in the RFP process for a social  
justice

mural to be located in the southern end of the tunnel.



Class of 2008 Gift installation – The Class Gift will likely be  
installed over

             the Winter week.



Sustainability Gallery – Plans are being finalized to further  
enhance the

             Sustainability Gallery space at the North end of the  
tunnel.  Phased

             work will continue throughout the year.



Traffic Numbers – This fall thus far = 583,266 (VT = 624,000)









DISCUSSION



Chalkboard Concept – concerns?



Open Tenant's Space Process

          We will discuss the open retail space in the building and  
where we are in

             the process to begin an RFP process.  Identify the pros  
and cons for the

             two received proposals as we collect more details for  
their RFP.



Others?
