Introductions: The meeting was started with thank yous to all the members for their time and commitment over the past year. A special thank you was given to Mark Schultzel, who has chaired the SHAC for the past two years (He graduates this year and will be attending UCSD Med School in the Fall).

Finalize SHS half sheet - Pat passed out the latest version incorporating the suggestions made at the last SHAC meeting. After another review and the addition of one phone number, the group agreed that the Info Sheet is finally FINAL. After some discussion it was decided that magnets would not accompany the half sheets but would be passed out separately at the SHS table during the Student Services Fair.

Nutrition Project - Reports were given for: Canyon Vista, Earl's Place, Cafe Ventanas, Club Med, Food Works, Sierra Summit, El Mercado, and M.O.M.
In general there was a lack of whole grain options, but also many good changes over the last couple of years with more fresh fruit and salad options. Comments will be summarized and shared with Housing and Dining Services. This project (in some form) will continue into next year. (Maybe campaign to promote healthy recommendations incorporated by Housing and Dining Services??)

Next Year: Members (present) continuing next year include Gigi Kwok, Gabby Sneh, Antonia Luu, Pamela Lam. Congratulations Mark and Christine!!
