1.
Dr. Cicala offered a moment of re lection to begin our meeting.
2.
We reviewed our statement of charge and membership, and new members were
encouraged to review the archive of updates regarding our work in 2002-2003 that
appears in the TBA~E section of the Division of Student Affairs website.
3. Our guest today, Professor of Biology Annette O'Connor, presented for our consideration,
as she also was invited to do for the Division of Student Affairs Leadership Team on
September 17, the idea that we broaden training and/or information-dissemination
regarding our disciplinary systems and procedures to include, potentially, a small corps of
faculty and staff members who might complement the work of our current judicial
officers by serving as informed advocates and/or advisors for students who might he
involved in disciplinary situations. The idea, which Prof. O'Connor and Dr. Cicala
discussed informally last year and which Dr. Cicala subsequently reviewed with one of
our Judicial Boards, was received positively by our committee, as it had been by the DSA
Leadership Team. The latter will develop one or more operational plans, for discussion
with our committee and others, and believes this can be a valuable complement to the
work that already has been underway over the past few years to broaden and deepen the
involvement of Lasallians beyond the Community Development unit and the Dean of
Students' Office in our primarily educational judicial system.

a.
Minutes from the May 28th Health Advisory stated “The Committee is unanimous in
recommending that the current Smoking Policy be changed to m ake all classroom and

minutes were published in Campus News and submitted to the Dean of Students and to the
Provost at the end of Spring 2003 semester to be passed on to the President’s Team, The
Committee was informed that the recommendations are currently being reviewed and no feedback
is available as of today's meeting.
b.
The HAC discussed options as to how to proceed. Although the HAC recognizes it serves in an
advisory capacity, the committee believes this is a serious health issue that needs to be addressed
as soon as possible. Several members of the committee report having been approached by staff
and/or faculty asking about the status of moving the HAC recommendations forward due to their
personal health concerns. Faculty and staff have reported to the HAC members that they avoid
certain areas when possible to avoid second hand smoke but often don’t have a choice but to
expose themselves to cigarette smoke due to individuals smoking in their offices.
