COMMITTEE REPORTS:

      Employee Relations: Staff picnic will be 5/25/05 11-1 in the University Mall or if bad weather in Carter Hall. There is an estimate of 500 participants and plans are being made to finalize a theme.

      Economic Benefits: Debbie Clark gave an excellent presentation at the Staff budget hearing. Dr. Hoops stated he was pleased with the progress Staff Council has made from earlier proposals, and he did not have any questions. Debbie will present the proposal again to the new Vice President of Business Affairs in the near future. The increase for third shift differential was not presented at the hearing. Debbie asked for more information for future discussion.

      Nominating Committee: Jalane Weber and Donna Hopf have eight positions of members who will be ending their terms and one replacement to fill for 2005-2006.

NEW BUSINESS: Discussion followed on how to fill staff positions. There is an atmosphere of staff being too busy with Banner and the increase in enrollment for time to commit to Staff Council. Examples of workers not taking lunch hours and a drop in members of the Secretary and Associates Club were a concern of how to motivate future Staff Council participants.

OLD BUSINESS: Debbie Clark will ask Barry Hart about security during emergency conditions, and Julie Bordelon will call the police station and insurance companies for information on arrests or claim coverage during a state of emergency.

DISCUSSION/ANNOUNCEMENTS: Student Worker Appreciation Week was a wonderful success again this year. March begins another phase of Banner for time and attendance.

Our next meeting is March 30, at 2pm in UC 214.

ADJOURNMENT: Motion for the meeting to be adjourned was made by Shannon Hoehn and 2nd by Carol Diedrich.
