First Group Meeting!

Hello everyone. Just a little info on our Workplace Communication class Group 1 Case 1.  The first meeting I would say was a success.  We had a few technical difficulties at first but we forged through and made our first meeting count.  Everyone in our group participated in our very first meeting, which consist of Jack Elliott III, Susan Farris, Priscilla Davis, and Wes Head.  Earlier in the week Wes sent out an email with a few ideas about where to cut the budget.  For the most part we agreed on areas that could be cut.  Coaches salaries, Fringe benefits, and Presidential salaries were pretty much agreed on.  Tuition came up in the discussion because at first we discussed whether or not to cut tuition by 2%, to try to entice more students to attend Mississippi State.  The problem, we discussed, was that at the moment the University probably could not handle any more students since we have seen record enrollment this year, and there have been problems with over crowding and parking issues for students.  We discussed a few areas that we might be able to cut but agreed that we would do our own investigation into some areas and when we meet again bring some new ideas to the table.  We haven't finalized anything yet but we do feel confident that we are headed in the right direction on this project.  We will continue to post our progress as the weeks go on, so everyone reading this can look forward to reading about our progress.
