Change 1: All of the members of the Board of Directors are members of the Committee of the Whole with one vice chair for Finance; one vice chair for Facilities; one vice chair for Academic Oversight; one vice chair for Advancement; and one vice chair for Governance. When the board has to consider a subject where the subject matter is not well digested and put into proper form for its definite action, it is the practice of the Board of Directors to refer the matter to the "Committee of the Whole." In this instance, the chairman immediately calls another member to the chair, and takes his place as a member of the committee. 

Change 2: The 2017-2018 calendar of listed action items should be flagged for those items that will happen in a normal school year versus those items which will occur during this school year (i.e., October 2018 - Review & Accept Audit)
