Eva opened the meeting by calling for introductions. She announced that Anne Lopez has retired and we are in need of new officers to step in and take on her committees: Parking and Transportation (Barb Foster), Naming Committee, Hearing Board (Randy Livingston) and Triboard Statements (Ana Rodriguez). Carolyn Eaton was asked and had agreed to serve on the exec board until elections in June.

Eva stressed that SAC is at less than 50% man power at this time and the remaining members need to make SAC a priority in attendance and commitment if we are going to continue working on committees, etc. Lauren Johnson agreed to make the ABOR Call to Audience.

Treasurers Report - Anna Rodriguez reported that the council is doing well at $4,100. The Crossroads Conference has encumbered part of this but we foresee that the incoming registrations will offset any loss.

Human Resources Department - Leslie Porter stated that Department Link is coming to centralize performance appraisal process. Also a family medical leave calculator that you can enter the dates to calculate leave.

Communications - Cori Cashen reported Grace continues to update our SAC website. There was an apparent overcharge on our account for printing of a newsletter and she is looking into why. Newsletter will carry awards, conference and Emily Krauz scholarship information.

Emily Krauz Staff Endowment - Applications are being received for the March deadline after which they will be sent out to the judging committee.

Employee Recognition - Grace reported that our event planning is going well though volunteers are needed for decorating on the day of the event . She will send out notice to remind folks to show up for balloon duty.

Human Resources - Jean Mason reported that the committee will be meeting soon.

Legislative - Carolyn Eaton reported that the committee is awaiting budget information and will distribute to SAC once an update is made. Pride night went well and she will be sending Grace pictures for the website.

Membership - Eva reported that we are in need of new members so if anyone has any ideas be sure to pass along their names or send them to the membership application on the website.

Activities - Lupita and Randy gave an update on the conference planning. So far we have 135 paid registrations including 10 vendors. Lupita's department is helping to offset some of the cost of the conference and will get recognition in the program. The activities committee is also planning for a December bake sale to benefit the Emily Krauz.

Campus Advisory Council - Grace reported that the March meeting was cancelled.

Campus Emergency Response Team - Jean reported that the tabletop exercise went well.
