          Chair Oros called the meeting to order at 3:05 p.m.  The Committee stated that they would work together to implement Plan C.   We will, however, need to go through the State Legislature for full autonomy.     

 

Dr. Hankin outlined and handed out a memo from Mr. Scheinkman regarding ways to implement parts of Plan C now.
