During routine announcements, a committee member asked board colleagues to tell staff (Julie) whether they will attend graduation on June 5 and whether they will bring guests so organizers can prepare stage and seating behind the stage. The member explained the board’s contingency plan: the ceremony will move indoors only for active lightning, and if moved indoors venue rules would limit entry to two tickets per graduate. The transcript records that directors and other officials discussed how indoor restrictions could limit who may enter.
Members also confirmed upcoming meetings: a board officers meeting on June 1 at 3:30 p.m.; a budget meeting on May 20 at 5:00 p.m.; graduation scheduled for June 5 at 7:00 p.m. at Eskew Field; and a regular board meeting on June 8 at 6:30 p.m. back in the boardroom. The chair and committee member traded brief personal remarks about attending graduation and about seating arrangements. The meeting concluded with adjournment.
