Greetings to all,
I, too, agree that an update on the Kerner Commission Report is
important.  However, I am currently working with programming chairs
throughout the organization to get co-sponsorships for as many of the
proposed panels as possible.  As the chip auction is scheduled for
Saturday, I committed most, if not all, of our chips to
already-submitted proposals and partnerships.  One option might be to
roll a presentation on the Kerner Commission into our "State of the
Division" panel, which is required by each division this year. This was
Camilla's suggestion.
In the meantime, I will keep the Kerner Commission Panel Discussion in
mind if something opens up.
Paula Poindexter's suggestion about getting a plenary or a mini-plenary
is also a possibility.  To get a mini-plenary at the cost of one-half
chip, I'll have to get three divisions to partner with us and eliminate
something that is currently in the works.  I'm open to suggestions.
