1. State Assembly report -- Lynda





Lynda and Ruth reviewed briefly the Assembly sessions. 


Of note was the announcement that no additions to salary


steps are going to be allowed.  There is a position


paper that addresses the Step V advancement.





Richard Lucier will be coming to UCSD to talk about the


Digital Library Project.





There will be another statewide call for research


proposals.





2.     Web page discussion -- Elliot and Kathy





It was generally agreed to move from the gopher format


to Web.  There was some discussion about the content of


the site--e.g., post documents for review and


discussion, calls for volunteers for projects, lists of


the committees, their charges and membership, retention


period.  Elliot and Kathy will confer, change the


current setup and then solicit further suggestions from


the membership.





3.       Sexual orientation document -- Sam





Locke Morrisey has the final report as the State


Cultural Diversity Committee rep.  The definitions of


ÒdiversityÓ are different now -- changed from


Òunder-represented groupÓ definition of the recent past. 


This has been cause for some discussion.  A name change


for the commitee may be made.  Sam will present the


document at next LAUC meeting and will circulate it by


email before the meeting.
