  1. Larry opened the meeting.
     
  2. Peer comparison report – Camille Colatosti. The data is from IPEDS, public information on-line that is two years old due to the info coming from the government. Some peer info is from the entire school and not just the music program (UNT, Oberlin, Rochester, e.g.) due to the public information available.

We discussed the report at length.
