Emeritus Review:  Emeritus application for Ron Moran was reviewed and approved unanimously.

 

Survey:  Julie Clarkson reported on the survey sent to all classified employees last month.  Over 240 responses have been received (a 42% return rate) with more coming.  Encourage people to complete a survey form and send it in if they haven’t already done so.  Responses have been mixed.  When results are compiled, a report will be sent to all classified employees. 

 

ACE Awareness: Discussion followed on how to get the word out about ACE, what ACE is, and who serves on the ACE Senate.  ACE will strive to let people know that meetings are open to any classified employee on campus. 

 

Paint the Town:  Sarah Saras reminded everyone that Paint the Town is June 10th, and she continues to take names of volunteers.

 

Other:  Merrill Strong brought up the fact that tuition fee waivers for employees are good only for academic track classes, and speculated on whether that could be changed to include all classes at BSU.  Nancy Rountree stated that the Center for Workforce Training gives 25% discount to employees if a class has not filled.  All people have to do is call.

 

Rita Nuxoll represented ACE Senate at the President’s Cabinet meeting May 1st

 

The Board thanked outgoing President Santillanes for her leadership this year.  Incoming President Nuxoll will preside over the next meeting on June 6th at 3:00 p.m. in the Senate Chambers in the SUB.  This will be a transition meeting with both old and new Senate members attending.

 

Meeting adjourned at 4 p.m.

 

Respectfully Submitted,                                                                                        

Ann Winslow for Connie Charlton
