The next regular meeting of Senate normally would be held on

September 12, but that meeting has been cancelled as a result of few

agenda items.

The date of the next regular meeting is Monday, October 3, 1977.

Agenda items and papers for the October meeting will be required by the

Secretary by 4:30 p.m., Thursday, September 15, 1977. These items and

papers will then be considered by the Senate Committee on Agenda and Rules

on Tuesday, September 20, with distribution on Friday, September 23, 1977.

Among other items, the agenda for that meeting is expected to

include the usual Fall elections to many Senate Committees, the consideration

of candidates for degrees, a report from the Senate Committee on Honorary

Degrees, a progress report on interior

,

program planning, the Annual Report

of the Senate Committee on University Budget, and curriculum items.

"Report on Grading" with responses required by October

14;

and forwarded

on July 15 a report on "Recommendations on Grading Practices," with res-

ponses required by October 14. Following the responses, SCUS and other
