Survey of Subject-Specific Classes & TIP Agenda Trudi tried to get this item on the TIP agenda in early September, but at the time there was confusion over who was running the meeting and where was it to be held. She will try to add this item to a future TIP meeting. 6. Draft of UES 1999-2000 Annual Report - Review (handout) Maggie distributed a draft of the 1999-2000 annual report for User Education Services (copies are available upon request) and asked CLUE members to review it and make comments, suggestions, etc. There was a brief discussion on clarifying the kinds of instruction activities that should be reported monthly, regarding the pink statistics sheet.
