(The student advisory vote was: Aye, Ms. Huff, Mr. Riley; no, none.) Dr. Gindorf, referring to the matter of negotiations surrounding the contract of the basketball coach, Mr. Lou Henson, opined that he thought the board should review this contract.

Mr. Higgins then briefed the board on the negotiation process. Discussion followed and the matter of recruitment of minority group members to the coaching staff was discussed.
