1.  Announcements
a.  Rebecca Bliquez is the new Events Coordinator. She has posted a
     Project Management Page on the wiki.
b.  Amy is willing to be general labor for any project.
c.  Nicole reminded everyone about PLG’s del.icio.us  account.
d.  Nicole suggested that PLG offer split membership/dues if people
     want to join just the UA chapter and not the parent organization. Nicole will check if other university chapters offer this.
e.  Dorothy’s Tote Design – everyone seems to like the overall design,
     but a few concerns were raised:
     i.  Instead of winter apparel and being on a snowy mountain top,
         have the design reflect AZ – more desert-like, possibly cacti.
    ii.  Possible addition of a cat or mountain/wildcat.
   iii.  Tote Design vs. Chapter Logo – everyone agreed to decide
         whether they will be the same once we have the final design and
         determine if it will translate on a smaller scale.
 
2.  Officer Updates
           a.  Rachel – Vice President/Treasurer
                      i.  PLG has $145, so we can now open a bank account.
                     ii.  Margaret Higgins will no longer be the PLG faculty
                          advisor. Nicole and Rachel will extend an invite to both Tom
                          Wilding and Leslie Kunkel to be the new advisor next week.
           b.  Sho – Webmaster
                      i.  12 May 2008 has been set as the distribution date of the first
                           issue of the PLG Newsletter.

                               library and ask Lisa to provide contact information for the
                               Juvenile Detention Center (Girls’ Writing Program) for the
                               newsletter.

                     ii.  Sonoran UCEDD Partnership/Project – she will ask Kristie Melkers to attend a meeting either on April 8th
