The Council discussed a number of issues including:
- the impact of decreased state budget revenues on operating budgets for institutions
- efforts to proactively address illegal filesharing on campuses in order to avoid over-regulation by the federal government and/or music industry
- advocacy/lobbying plan for the Spring session
- Annapolis 101- lobbying day for students with the state legislature
I also asked the Council to research and consider a number of issues:
- differential tuition by discipline
- differential tuition increases/decreases for each institution
- mid-year tuition increases
- mandatory healthcare
- in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants
The Council will meet next at UMBC on December 7 to consider candidates for student regent.
