[Lnc-business] Fall/Winter meeting dates and location

[Joshua Katz]

I would be supportive of choosing a date all can attend.  In particular, I
am uncomfortable holding the budget meeting knowing, in advance, that an EC
member, who also chairs the EPCC, is unable to attend.  Both of those tasks
seem relevant, so I would favor holding it when Dr. Lark is available.

By the way, CT hasn't hosted a meeting.  We could meet in my apartment.
I'll bake cookies.
