Personnel Changes
Mihaela is leaving the committee, and Daniel will be on leave. We have decided to invite Joel Weisberg back to the committee to replace Mihaela, and Jason Decker will be joining the committee to replace Daniel.
Daniel also wrote a letter to the college council regarding having our charter amended to allow new student members. They will review our proposal next year, when they are done with strategic planning.
Fred Rogers is here. We gave him a recap of the 3M meeting and the summer organizing workshop. We also asked if we could sign an REC petition to the SEC as the Carleton Responsible Investment Committee. He recommended discussing this issue with the Investment Office. We also discussed the possibility of meeting briefly with the trustees in the fall to discuss the impact of our new proxy voting policy.
Future Plans
There will be no meeting next week. However, on May 30th we will have our last meeting of the year. We plan to invite Jason Decker and Joel Weisberg to that meeting so that they can hear about our plans for next year.
We created an official list of plans for next year:
1. Hold a townhall meeting.
2. Create a responsible investment Wiki
3. Continue with our usual proxy voting activities
4. Launch a survey.
