Chairs will determine meeting locations, considering needs of members. All scheduled and called meetings will be held, with those who can't be there naming proxies if desired but the majority of those in attendance can work if no proxy is provided. Being honest, open and able to disagree is OK internally, but committees and committee members speak with one voice externally. Rank within any organization does not exist during sessions. Discussions in meetings are confidential unless otherwise stated.
All input is valued and every view deserves to be heard.
Focus on Issues, not individuals. Decisions are by consensus, unless agreement cannot be made, then a majority of those at the meeting decides. Where there is a strong split on any one issue, the Steering Committee will decide what to recommend to the Distance Learning Advisory Committee. This page was last updated July 13, 1998.
