[NCUC-EC] Intersessional/ Planning will start soon

[farzaneh badii]

Dear all,

I summarized all your comments + members comments on intersessional and
sent to  Mary and Benedetta. Mary said in response:

"As always, thank you for getting back to us on this topic, and thanks to

> 1 & 2, 2018, staff suggests that the *next step be a planning call
> amongst all the representatives from each SG and Constituency*. Please be

> planning call, if possible."



I would like the EC members, especially those who requested these meetings
to be on annual basis, to actively engage with planning it. Unfortunately,
I don't have the bandwidth to attend as many planning meetings as I want
to. So please volunteer to attend the calls, and take the poll.



Best
