I think I might have volunteered to be part of this. I am certainly willing to.

Mary, I recalled 4 of us at the meeting volunteered to do this. I cannot remember who. Maybe we should get volunteers to form a group? I'm in. </div>

Good morning, all.</div>

As promised, I spoke yesterday with Jeannine Kahn with the UL System about the transcript proposal and the idea of bringing the 3MT statewide competition to the next UL System meeting.

On the transcripts, she said we should move forward and get a proposed policy drafted along with a justification. She appreciated our concerns about the timing this request alongside the various concerns about transfer student transcripts, but agrees that we
should put forth a good argument and a revised policy that the UL System grad deans agree upon. Perhaps we can gather a small ad hoc group UL System folks to meet soon by Zoom to mockup a revised policy and justification? Once we have that drafted, we could
then bring it to the group by email. What do you think? Sushma and Nancy, I know that you both have been doing a good bit of research on this topic too. Shall we take the lead? Anyone else?<br>

On the 3MT, she wants to talk with Jim and a few others at the System office but her initial response was absolutely. That is good! Next year, the UL System Conference is set for February in NOLA. I think that could work really well. I've requested dates and
will follow up with her again in mid-April after Jim is back in the office. (He is headed to France with the Reginald F. Lewis Scholars Program students.)

All in all, I'd say this is good news and, especially on the transcript question, better than we expected!</div>
