the Council; second: Gamel-McCormick, vote: unanimous.

Committee on Committees at present.
OLD BUSINESS
Pam Brown distributed the current draft of the CHEP survey. There
was some discussion of the format of some instructions and questions.
Pam reported that the survey will be distributed on-line on October
23; members of the CHEP community will have until Nov. 1 to respond.
DEAN'S REPORT
- Dean Rich discussed the " three-year " report to CHEP which was
distributed to Council members last week. The document outlines CHEP's
accomplishments since its formation and outlines future plans for
the College. Dean Rich requested that Council members review the document
and offer suggestions for areas that need more attention within the
document.
- Dean Rich outlined the process for the development of the five
year plan. Results of the CHEP survey will be distributed to the CHEP
community on Nov. 17 and comments will be elicited from the community.
A task-force will be established in November to draft the plan. The
plan will be discussed and refined through a retreat in January attended
by the Dean, chairs, and directors. Their work will be returned to
the College Council for further review and the draft plan will be
distributed to faculty in February. The CHEP community as a whole
will have the opportunity to comment on the plan in March, with the
final report released in April.
- Dean Rich requested that Council members offer suggestions regarding
the issues facing the College. These issues will help inform the work
of the chairs and directors at the January retreat.
