1. A discussion was held about our group becoming a member of the
Association of Retirement Organizations in Higher Education.
Because of lack of interest and difficulty with funding, no action was
taken.
2. Dean Talbott gave a review of the spring luncheon.
(See minutes of previous meeting). The
meal will include a choice of lasagna or chicken Florentine, a Caesar salad,
mixed vegetables and a special dessert.
The Frietags will act as dining room host and hostess.
Judy Harrington will pick up the nametags from Brenda the day preceding the
luncheon and Nancie and Judy will pass out nametags at the table.
There will not be a head table, but the speaker and those to be introduced will
be seated near the podium.
Our guests will be President Koob and his wife, the Provost Podolefsky and his
wife, Bill Calhoun (his wife is unable to attend), Julie Pontasch, the Director
of Gift Planning for University Advancement, and Brenda Jordan.
Len Froyen will give the invocation.
Dean will look into having a sign posted at the back door to let people know the
luncheon is on the lower level of St Stephens.
There will be no valet parking.
Dean will check with Ron Camarata to see about getting centerpieces from the
greenhouse for table decorations. The flowers
would then be given to guests or sold at a nominal cost.
3. The location of the spring luncheon for 2005 has been moved from the IPAC
veranda to the ballroom where it will be warmer. The
luncheon is scheduled for May 5, 2005. Rental
for 1/2 of the ballroom including the meal will be $1500. Good
parking will be a real bonus to the new location.

To save on postage it will be mailed out this

[i.e., the now being constructed PIPAC Centre located
on the corner of Hudson Road and Technology Parkway],
veranda.

of names of spouses of deceased emeriti. At
present Dean makes sure that Brenda knows, and Brenda forwards the names of the
deceased to Bill Waack so that he can add the spouses to the membership list.
6. A discussion was held about programs for
future monthly luncheons. The membership has
already indicated they do not want programs at each luncheon. It
was agreed that programs should be short. A
suggestion was made that Bob Hardman present a slideshow on model trains.
