• The committee approved the 9/23/2020 minutes.
• We reviewed the QCC Academic Senate Standing Committee Activities Form 2020-2021. We approved all the charges.  We discussed how to proceed with the following charge:“Work on creating an internal repository or database (reach out to David Moretti) that entails all new and former bylaws that have been approved by the Academic Senate so we can easily find when changes have been made to the Senate Bylaws.”
• We decided to invite David Moretti to one of our meeting to receive instructions on how to create a repository or database for our documents. We discussed that we will start checking the approved bylawys from the past three years. After the meeting with David Moretti, we will select volunteers for this task.
• Library committee: After having read the Library committee’s answers to our questions, we agreed that we did not have any further questions. Their answers addressed all our concerns.
• We discussed possible revisions to the 2007 Committee Guide. All committee members will post their revisions of the documents onto our Microsoft Team page.
• We received approval from CUNY to use Microsoft Team for our meetings. Raymond will set up a link for out next meeting

The meeting was adjourned at 1:53PM

Respectfully submitted,

Franca Ferrari-Bridgers
