Tim reported that he and Tom have several student activities planned for the summer. Part of GUS activities will include all summer school students as well. Dotty asked Tim to see about having fliers posted announcing the activities.

15 of those are registered spring 03, summer 03 and fall 03 semester. 4 for spring 03 and summer 03 semester, and

33 registered for summer 03.

Augie reported that 40 of the 73 (56%) promise scholars that we had for fall and or spring are not eligible for the scholarship in the fall.

Dotty stated that it was her goal to have a strategic plan for recruitment developed by the end of July. This plan will show who, what or when specific programs will take place.
