Minutes Approved

George Scott called the meeting to order at 1:39 PM. The agenda for today's meeting was adopted. The minutes of July 24, 2001 meeting were read and approved.

I.Old Business

Outstanding Staff Awards

The question: Do we want to re-implement the awards program in a manner similar to the one originally used? The Chair asks the members to contact their constituents and ask if the campus wants to do this. A group was appointed to draft a survey and distribute it to the staff by council members.

II. New Business

A question has been raised about insurance coverage stopgap provisions. Some brochures say that $3,000.00 is maximum. This is only true if the employee is within network. The suggestion put forward was a request to provide the full booklet during open enrollment. George will send Becky Cissell a letter asking her to address the issue with the staff.

Next meeting September 18, 2001 at 9:15 AM.

Adjourned.
