Dear All:

Thank you for coming to the first meeting of the BFA intercollegiate
athletics committee - and apologies for whom this was a schedule
conflict.  I won't be keeping or posting detailed minutes, but I will
generally follow up by email with a synopsis.  This is the first such
synopsis.  You can always find the agenda and other materials at

	   www.cs.colorado.edu/~lizb/bfa-iac.html

- Meeting time for the spring semester was determined to be the first
  monday of every month at 11am.  Location TBD.

- Ted Snow and/or Steve Jones will attend meetings of the compliance
  committee on behalf of the IAC and the BAB.  (Thank you, gentlemen.)

- Kim Trenbath, our grad student rep, has put me in touch with an
  undergrad who will act as our UCSU representative, starting in the
  spring.

- We need a student-athlete representative.  (Ceal, can you please
  recruit someone for this?  I'll be at SAAC tonight and can make the
  announcement if you'd prefer.)

- Dave Clough sent me the FAR position description, which is now
  posted on the webpage.  If anyone else has things that they'd like
  me to post, please send them along.

- The synthesis of everyone's prioritizations of the issues has a
  clear winner: the COIA report.  Title IX/gender equity was second,
  with club sports and faculty involvement in recruiting & hiring tied
  for third.

With that in mind, here's the skeleton of our agenda for the year:

November:   review IAC & BAB charges; start discussing COIA

December:   finish discussing COIA and put together a BFA motion re: same

January:    Gender equity/Title IX (who else should we involve here?)

February:   Club sports (who else should we involve here?)

March:	    Faculty involvement in recruiting (student-athletes) and hiring
	    (staff)

April:	    Leakage

May:	    Wrap-up; report synthesis; planning for next year

This outline only lists the big-ticket items.  Each meeting will also
include several smaller topics, such as: consultations with the FAR,
the provost, etc.; briefings from various people; requests and
ultimata from the BFA; and other small fires that arise.

You'll notice that the end of the schedule is less full.  That's to
allow for the inevitable optimism of schedule-makers.

Liz

p.s. I will post these synopses on the webpage, so you don't need to
save this email.
