3. Faculty member that was threatened with losing benefits after TCA ended before Medicare kicks in has been given benefits to bridge the gap.
   

4. Representatives from the student government are here. We discussed course evaluations by students, timing, notifications, etc. They agreed that not getting grades until evaluations are filled out is a good idea. More office hours would be a good thing. More facilities for office hours would also be nice. Faculty working conditions are student learning conditions.
