            Web Page

The web page will be updated in July.  Alicia Landin volunteered to help with the web page if she is taught how.

Guidelines for Presenter Selection

Some changes were made to the guidelines presented to TSID regarding BVID’s responsibilities in presenter selection before the guidelines were presented to TSID for approval (see written guidelines attached to BVID Meeting Agenda June 14, 2002).  TSID set a budget of $11,000 for presenters and entertainment for the conference.  The master schedule will follow the pattern of the previous conferences, depending on how many meeting rooms are available at the hotel.  Six proposals have been received so far.  The deadline for proposals is August 1st.  We will need to meet after the deadline and before the next TSID meeting to discuss the proposals submitted.
