Meeting commenced at 11:00.
Minutes were approved (Sherman, Teets)
The status of the CHDLT/FCSC proposal was discussed. Bergen met with B. Shirmer and received general approval for the proposal. However, Shirmer said that a meeting should also be held with the faculty of Dept. of Family Studies and Social Work to be sure they were in agreement. That meeting is to be held on March 5th.
Major portion of the meeting was spent discussion the two proposals that are to be sent in to the U. S. Dept. of Education. On one (cognitive science) C. Shore is P. I. and on the other (reading comprehension) A. Wang and A. Berger are co-P .I. This is the first time that these must be sent in via the internet in PDF format. The Research Office (C. Willecke, H. Kiss) is helping with those arrangements. Stanton indicated she could do PDF files if help was needed.
There were no specifics on ongoing projects.
The NewsCenter preparation has been completed, with Frato as editor. Articles include ones related to grant projects and scholarly activity of Faculty Associates.
The question of the copier bill was again raised and Bergen reported that she had talked to A. Thomas about sharing costs with the department but that he did not agree because the department has provided other support to CHDLT. Bergen also reported that CHDLT had received slightly less indirect cost recovery than anticipated because a portion that went to the department was not released to CHDLT.
The move to smaller quarters was discussed. The Executive Board will be meeting in the conference room designated for EDP since the office space assigned to CHDLT in the move will hold only the essential equipment and not conference table space.
Meeting adjourned at 12:00.
