RE:������������������ A Possible Resolution on Textbook Costs

 

DATE:�������������� November 16 � 18, 2005


 

At the request of Regent Lynn Hamilton, chair of the Academic & Student Affairs Committee of the Montana Board of Regents, I drafted the attached resolution.

 

The resolution is based on suggestions from Regent Hamilton, and is intended to serve as a follow-up to the extensive discussion of textbook costs at the September 2005 meeting of the Academic & Student Affairs Committee.� Regent Hamilton thought it was important to take some action, based on that discussion, and the resolution is intended to serve as a device to determine what additional action is appropriate.
