    2. Chair J. Kus noted that he had met with Provost Echeverria on 9/10/08. They discussed a draft charge to the Ad Hoc Committee on Salary Differentials. He noted that the members of this ad hoc committee should receive their charge in the near future.
  4. New Business.
    There was none.
  5. Update on Budget.
    There was no update available because the legislature has still not passed a state budget.
  6. Committee Agenda for AY 08-09.
    The committee discussed several items that might be placed on its agenda during the course of the year. Some possible items, such as “Impaction” and YRO should perhaps be better introduced to the Senate under “New Business” because the Executive Committee might choose to have these topics reviewed by Academic Policy and Planning (AP&P) and/or ad hoc committees in addition to the University Budget Committee.
  7. Discussion with Peter Smits - Time Certain 4:00 p.m.
    The committee had a wide ranging discussion with P. Smits on a number of topics related to advancement, fundraising, and the current campaign. He agreed to return to the committee at a future meeting, after the Third Quarter report is available.
