1. New meeting time? Monday PM meetings have been having low attendance. Discussion on new meeting time. Joe: Wednesday at 8pm? Lecture series ends this week. Weds at 7pm suggested. Then 6pm suggested. WEDS 6PM is NEW MEETING TIME. John: stresses importance of high attendance at meetings, especially because questions of all of us regarding HOPES will increase in the coming weeks.

2. Request for feedback on transitions: How are things going? Hannah: meeting attendance is central. Anneliese: You're doing a great job, Pete! Joe: small group discussions seemed to work; should we try those again? Kris: maybe we can set Monday night as a cutoff for agenda items, to get out, so people can think about them Tuesday and be ready for discussion Weds. Hannah: two-hour meetings? Please give us notice so we can prepare to be here for that long! John: further elaboration on long HOPES meetings - lots of detail to be disseminated a couple of times.
