Provost meets with committee 10:30

The Provost read his proposed budget to the faculty members of the committee. While this was infomative, it provided is no room for faculty input as we did not see the original requests from the deans to compare to the winnowed-down version presented by the Provost. How did the Provost set *his* priorities? Some Strategic Plan goals MUST have received greater weight, since the Provost is requesting only about half of the budgets put foward by the deans.

While we were permitted to take notes, the committee is not allowed to leave with a copy. We are not able to really have much independent discussion of the requests.
