IV. Unfinished Business:

Discoveries from the proposal reviews:

· Writing workshop training for next year should include some discussion/instruction on what should be included in the proposal

· Courses that are taught as writing intensive must submit a proposal to the committee; adult education and otherwise.

· Adult education should be sending a representative to our meeting.

· This is the last time the committee is approving courses retroactively.

· Rick will be having contact adult education for organizing further coordination.
