Notes:
• Jose requested the opportunity to speak with us, and I thought it would be good to hear what he has to say, although Clerk’s has no direct role in Serendipity.
• Michele can meet with us, but she will be coming from a departmental meeting with the President. She says that should be over by 3:30, which would leave her 10 minutes or so to speak with us if we end on time.
