The criteria for the Bud Day ACAS Activist award were discussed. • 7. On the issue of donations to other organizations, it was decided that a token show of solidarity could be made, with a discretionary amount of money under $250 (if there were no alternative such as exchange ads or non-monetary endorsement). • The meeting rose at 8:30am with the ritual passing of the ACAS banner from Meredeth Turshen to Kristine Peterson. • Minutes of the ACAS meeting of November 17, 2006.
