Remarks by the President.  President Witt said the semester is off to a good start with very encouraging enrollment news for Spring.  There has been a slow, steady rise in SAT and GRE scores.  The School of Nursing experienced a very successful scholarship campaign.  The President described positive feelings from alumni who attended the 50th and 51st class reunions this past weekend.  Homecoming week events were well attended this year.  President Witt feels the momentum generated in academic areas is being picked up by students, alumni, faculty and staff, and producing a level of optimism on campus.  Administration is preparing for the next legislative session by putting together our list of campus legislative issues that will be combined with those of U.T. System.    

 

Adjournment.  The meeting adjourned at 2:30 p.m.
