look at improving the support of faculty nearing

The Affirmative Action task force is working on
establishing a requirement that all entering fresh
men take a course focused on another culture.
The group will also work on increasing the repre
sentation of minorities at the University and cul
tural diversity on campus.
Task force members were selected based on in
terest. knowledge and expertise. Kissler said.
The groups received suggestions from Presi
dent Myles Brand on the area of their topic that is
of interest to the University Each task force
shares similar long range goals, said Alison
Baker. Brand's executive assistant.
"The task forces were created to come up with
strategies and provide an opportunity for faculty
to look at the seven issues and how we are going
to cope with the problems they present." Baker
said.
The task force members are currently working
to define the problems w ithin their specific areas,
and a plan is expected to be completed over the
next five to 111 years.
List Man h. the groups developed an overview
ol planning A Sept. 10 retreat enabled task force
heads, University deans and central administra
tion staff to review plans.
An open forum discussion has been tentatively
set for later this term, in which students may of
fer input on any of the task force topics.
