Christina: Website will be up tomorrow morning through KSU main website. List committee members, timelines, committee meetings, schedules, media articles.

Lysonge: Is there anything precluding the web site going up? If we say it is going up, it had better go up. Christina: Oracle activity.

Next item:

Lysonge had an idea of a monthly newsletter about the status of the search, one additional means of sending information to the KSU community. Academic search has no issues with this. First edition should be out on January 1 or so to alumni groups, BOR, stakeholders, who are interested in the search.

Open item on the agenda: floor open for commentary.

Ralph: how will the newsletter be distributed?

Response: Digitally and in print.

Houston: Finalizing dates - Need to think through those and adjust so that everybody knows the timeline.

Lysonge: Straw man calendar will be created for discussion.

Houston: How will members access the applications?

Wanda: January 5 committee will receive login information to access the applications (repeated the offer to screen for the A list, B list). Today committee received the proposed timeline with dates. They will develop interview questions. Search committee will be on campus to see and evaluate the interactions, but their responsibility will be to host and not to evaluate the candidates further.

Christina will send out a doodle poll to set up meetings for evaluating the applicants.

Houston: January 20th is inauguration day and the mayor will be gone.

Lysonge: January 20th is not etched in stone so that date is flexible.
