Notes from the meeting are italicized. ATTENDEES  Members: Selby Cody-Voss, Brittney Lewis, Kenny Rettinger, and Daricus Larry Non-Members: Bede Mitchell AGENDA  NEW BUSINESS 1. Changes in Reimbursement: a. Dean of Libraries, Dr. Bede Mitchell, addressed the Courtesy Committee to discuss changes to how reimbursements are handled when using Foundation funds. He explained that in the past, people could contribute to the General Fund during a Day for Southern and allocate it to the Courtesy Committee. With these donations, the committee was able to provide a lot more materials and food per breaks and host the December Luncheon. However, the policy was changed recently, and food, flowers, anniversary gifts, etc. can no longer be reimbursed through the Foundation Fund.  b. Discussion for this information began regarding alternate ways to continue to host Library Breaks. Business meetings will be reimbursed, but members were concerned that would discourage participation. A survey was suggested to gauge personnel interest, and plans were made to send out a survey to ZACH-L listserv.  c. While the survey results were pending, the Courtesy Committee will be unable to operate normally, so it was decided that the committee would go on a hiatus until further notice. The administrative office would take over the Library Break for June in the meantime. An ice cream social was planned for June 28 at 3:00pm.  2. Future Meetings a. Status of the Committee i.
