Policy #8.2.2 Revision - Tax Shelter Programs VP Marv Dodge presented the revisions to policy #8.2.2. This is a technical clean-up of an existing policy outlining the tax shelter programs or retirement annuities available to benefitted employees. It confirms the commitment to provide tax shelter annuities as outlined in the United States IRS code.

Motion was made by Marshall Erb to approve these changes; seconded by Sherrie Hansen. Vote - Unanimous 6. R401 - Discontinue 2 'tracks' in MPA Provost Brad Cook presented proposal to discontinue two 'tracks' within the Masters of Public Administration program.
