- Executive members are encouraged to look for synchronicity for our blog, political events, and letters to the editor. Tabled to next meeting.
- Nancy offered her resignation for failing to use BCC for initial contact list email. Discussed reactions, only one person of 200 replied saying it was upsetting but did not asked to be removed.
