Charter and by-laws pretty basic, to hold two meetings a year, one in
the spring, the other in the fall.
9. Discussions about the agenda; should the
responsibility be rotated? Should it be
coordinated by or with the CCHE-CIO board?
Should there be a formal call for papers? What is the right balance of topics for staff
and administrators?
10. Discussions about the location; should it
always be at The Nature Place? Some
indicated the distance and cost prohibitive for many to come – especially with
the limited communications available.
Others indicated that the limited communications access helps attendees
to be focused on the meeting.

meetings (or an additional meeting like the recent Security seminar) at a
