Note: LMC's DE Committee did not meet Fall 2023. The Committee was reorganized as advisory only in December of 2023. In May of 2024 it, once again, became a Brown Act Committee under the Academic Senate. A summary of the work accomplished by the DE Advisory Committee during Spring 2024 has been added to the end of the semester Spring 2024 sequenced agenda listings. Fall 2024 meetings will resume in September of 2024.
