The Agenda included a statement explaining that ARE was one of the 5-year plan committees. Rosie added that the ARE Committee is a standing committee as well as one of the Long range planning committees. The ARE organization would be discussed by Lifespan Learning Director Rebecca G. Kretzmann at a later date.

ARE Chair position: Karen explained that at the June 11 meeting, she and Jennifer said they would consider co-chairing the committee. Karen said that after careful consideration she has decided not to serve in this position. Jennifer said she is still considering this position and that Jeanette Parsons indicated she may be interested in co-chairing with her. The topic of ARE Chair prompted further discussion.

Reports were given on the tasks assigned at the June 11 meeting.
