         needs to close the books.

         can be found.  Notice will be put in the Einblatt for volunteers.

Review of the Minicon committee decision on Comp's
         The Board disapproves of general committee decision and thinks the decision is
        a bad policy.  Working on the convention is a privilege and we pay our own way.
         Any major p olicy change must have ten days notice(published).  The minutes should
         include the agenda for the next meeting and be mailed in a timely manner.  The
         Exec will be polled for their opinions.

Announcement:  Denny Lien has procured file cabinets for the MinnSTF Library.

Poetry Anthology

         The vote on this anthology is for 3 and 1 abstention, 1 absent.
         One suggestion for funding if necessary is to move $1500 from the lecture series
         to the Poetry Anthology.
