MINUTES PREPARED BY Carl Younger. 

Called to order at
1:00 pm eastern time.

Carl suggested that if
  Ka Yan and Vincent have anything they wish to be added into the workshop relaying a Canadian prospective on inclusion and diversity it would be welcomed.

Discussion went to the graphs to be used at the workshop.

Sheila said that she plans to use the graphs to back up the argument that our demographic survey is important to pursue.

Bruce suggested that the value of having the data in hard copy at the workshop for the participants is they will see the type of data and what it can tell them about their locals if they can get it from their companies.

Melissa said that she would have the hard copies made up but wants us to look it over first for any edits we may want on the captions.

Vernon said that there are still issues with his paper about getting the demographic data but he can still give a rough report from his observations.

No room numbers yet for the workshop so Vernon suggest we may have to pencil it in on the flyers.

Carl went over how his presentation would look and asked that everyone supply a paragraph on how they want to be presented.

Vincent said he would get in touch with Michael D’sousa and ask if we could get a brief current update what he has been involved in.

Yoko suggests that we discuss her replacement with the Western region people at the conference.

Melissa reminded us that the ASNE overall data is also important to back up our presentations.

Discussion went to how we wanted to use power point presentations in our presentations

Bruce said that even though the graphs are in a power point format we would not actually have a person to run that at the conference.

We will have to refer to the hard copy pages that we supply to the audience.

Bruce suggest that because we only have an hour and a half that we should use some of that time to have a discussion with the audience.

The agreed upon order thus far for the presentations will be Carl first with introductions and history of the Human Rights and Equity committee then directly into his presentation followed by Vernon’s presentation then Sheila’s.

It was agreed that we would have another meeting this coming Wednesday April 21, 2010 6:30 pm eastern time with the presenters to go over Vernon’s and Sheila’s presentation and anyone else who wants to participate

Melissa suggests that we plan our next full meeting after the
Cleveland meeting.

The committee adjourned at
1:48 Pm
