I. Business
After a movement by Russell
and a second by Richards, the January minutes were approved.
Todd presented
the report from the Executive Committee, noting that input would be sought from
all interested parties regarding the potential reorganization of TSP. He also
said that considering the new information that has come to light about the
condition of the TSP building should be made part of the negotiations with UT.
He asked if the UT Physical Plant could present its building report at an
upcoming meeting, and Kathy agreed to arrange for the presentation.
The managers and director had
no details to add to their written reports.
II. Candidate
Certification
The candidates for Texan
Editor and the open Board positions presented themselves for certification.
III. Future Agenda
While the Radio, TV and
Travesty manager selections are planned for the March meeting, the idea was
mooted that they might be shuffled around if a great amount of time is required
by the anticipated Physical Plant presentation.
Upon a movement by Russell
and a second by Richards, the Board voted to adjourn at 3:27 p.m.
