There's two things I want to draw the board's attention to. The first one is a typo on page three. It says that our elections

And also everybody should have board policy 2004 extracurricular activities in the transition. There was a policy that was created more than 10 years ago about a GPA average for athletes and it's incorporating that as we transition over and the board should have gotten um a copy of how that verbiage will be. And I had no calls or any questions um any concerns. So, I'll I'll ask one more time. Does anybody have any questions or concerns before we put this through for consideration? >> The chair. >> Yes. >> I don't have a question of concern. I just have a something I would like to say. >> Okay. >> Um, as I read through
007this, I just was looking at number six of what the um code of conduct. I think it's abundant when it talks about letting this be a space where we all can talk freely about have our opinions and have open communication out of all the things in there. I just want us to be able to have conversations. Disagree and still be able to be civil. That's literally what number six talks about. Me and AJ could disagree all day, but I'm going to always respect him as a person. So out of all the things in there, I just want us to be able to do that. Agree to disagree civil. >> Okay. So for clarification, Daniel, you're okay with how that reads. You just want us to implement it. >> I just want us to abide by
008it. I want us to abide by it. >> Okay. All right. >> That's all because it's not new. It just hasn't been followed. So I just want us to really try to work on following that. >> All right. Thank you. >> Anybody else? I'd just like to say that um I think Luan Jackson did a great job in putting together um the policy. uh we had what 2,000 almost we had so many pages but uh Adam really did a great job in doing um this policy and I think that um it's going to be better like this >> to the chair.
