More meetings

The Faculty Senate had another meeting today and talked more about what they should demand of the Regents in the next presidential search. The Board, of course, hasn't deigned to respond to the faculty's last set of demands.

Coming up:

• Board of Regents meeting later this week
• Special open joint Faculty Senate/CPI meeting:

  The Texas A&M University System Vice Chancellor for Research, Dr. Brett Giroir, has been invited to speak at a joint-sponsored Faculty Senate and Council of Principal Investigators open meeting on July 27, 2009, in Rudder 601, from 3:00-5:00 p.m. All faculty are invited.
  
  Dr. Giroir will discuss the research mission of the System, specifically with regards to NCTM, TIPS and TIGM, with a question and answer session to follow.
