5:00 p.m. |
New Location! Reception
in Holiday
Inn, University Center, Schenley I-III Ballroom |
The reception will provide an opportunity for BOV members
to meet each other and to begin to share ideas derived
from preparatory materials. BOV members will be pre-assigned
to break-outs (aligned with their individual expertise
or interest) so they can begin to think about the issues
in advance and meet the other members of their group at
the dinner following the reception.
Tuesday evening will
also provide an opportunity for BOV members to post their
own ideas, issues, and questions to the group to influence
preparation for the discussions tomorrow. |
