    2. POCR project: Bledsoe shares that a Capstone process made small adjustments to make the prior process more effective, easier, and manageable. This new process will include: 6-week training, committee will revise 3-courses (one course at a time), CVC will assist at different areas in the process.
    3. On this subject, Dyer updates committee with background info, policy, and timelines that others are in discussion with on the topic. Dyer pointed out that there is uncertainty about the future of professional development as it relates to online education in the system.
    4. Duron raises questions regarding a process that has caused issues with students registering for finish faster courses.
