- and a purely Saint George one. They are both at an impasse in terms of palatability to the other party. We are now working on engaging in negotiations. They will be between Saint George and Mississauga, trying to find compromise. There were rumours of non-disclosure agreements that didn’t actually exist, and walking into these negotiations no one really knows what the other proposal fully is.
- • Ben: The two main priorities for us are keeping college representation and proper equity representation. Proposals without these are not acceptable for us, especially those that eliminate college representation or affect it disproportionately. We are still working on the details of equity representation, but it is very important to us. Our two UTSU directors from Vic couldn’t make it today. Steve Warner asked me to read this in his stead: “Hi all. I apologize for not being at today's meeting; I'm currently in Waterloo picking up my new glasses. There hasn't been too much going on with the UTSU so far. After some issues with the hiring process, we hired the Vice President campus life, Akshan Bensal. As you also probably know, our executive director, Sandy Hudson, quit last month. We will be striking a hiring committee soon to search for a replacement. In regards to the issue of the board structure, CNCA compliance, and equity representation: A group of us have been meeting regularly to develop a new preliminary proposal. From Vic: myself, Auni, Ben and Gabe have been a part of these meetings. I'm very happy with what we've come up with so far, but we aren't quite ready to release the details of the proposal to the public yet. We will be going through rigorous public consultation to ensure that the major stakeholders are willing to accept it. We are not electing members to committees until our next meeting, so there hasn't been much official work on the Board's part yet. However, the new management hasn't burned the office down yet, and things are running smoothly. Also at our next meeting, we will be getting access to our utsu emails. I believe mine is steve@utsu.ca, so if there's anything official you want to talk about, you can get in touch that way. I'm also on Facebook, and I think I have already everyone on this year's VUSAC as a friend.” Are there any questions? We cede the rest of our time.

### Gabriel leaves at 6:45pm.
