SMC trustees to meet today, Friday
By KATIE MILLER
News Writer


   The Saint Mary's Board of Trustees will meet on campus today and Friday to discuss topics ranging from student life to the Master Plan. The agenda includes reports on the Master Plan, the Strategic plan and student committees, according to Molly Kahn, student representative to the Board of Trustees.

Thursday's activities will consist of committee meetings where Saint Mary's students will be present.

"I have worked with the chair of the Committee on Student Life and the administration to design the agenda for the meeting. I am also a member of the Committee on Mission," said Kahn. "Other Saint Mary's College students serve on the Committee on Student Life, the Committee on Education, the Committee on Finance and Budget, the Committee on College Relations and the Committee on Mission."

In addition to committee meetings today, each Trustees will eat with an assigned student at Noble Family Dining Hall.

"This is an exciting opportunity for students to speak one on one with a trustee in order to share their ideas and concerns for Saint Mary's," said Kahn. "The trustees are always interested in student opinions, so this is a good chance for both parties."

On Friday, full Board meetings will take place. Important topics at these meetings will include the Master Plan and the Strategic Plan.

"The Board has recently been focusing on issues of fundraising for the Master Plan," said Kahn. "Also, the Board has been giving input on the Strategic Plan and working on further developing the working style of the Board."

This is the second time the Board of Trustees has met this school year.
