David: 

TSO changes are slowing down. Plan seems to be that eventually TSO 
employees may be paid from extra funds coming from faculty for
administration of research machines. In the mean time, some grad students 
will be asked to be lab managers. 

Swikis are not supported anymore because Jeff Rick is leaving. S. Voida 
and M. Nelson volunteered to keep up the research media-wikis but not 
the academic wikis. This could be a problem for those classes that depend 
on the swikis. We should inform faculty. Teaching faculty will have to run
their own wiki servers. 

all-grads@cc. new mailing list that should reach all graduate students.


Julie: phd recruiting. Will send out a mail to ask for help.

Tracy: try to organize picnic with prospective students during recruiting

will be semi-monthly meetings: one with lunch catered, one brown bag. They 
will include talks with female faculty member and informal discussions.
