[[underline]] MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 1, 1988 [[/underline]]
The Chancellor drew the Regents' attention to the minutes of the most recent Regents' meeting, and the following motion was approved:

VOTED that the Board of Regents approves the Minutes of the meeting of February 1, 1988, as previously circulated on March 1, 1988.

[[underline]] REPORT OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE [[/underline]]
Mr. Humelsine introduced the following report of the Executive Committee's meeting of April 21, 1988. He added that the Committee had thoroughly considered a request from the Washington [[underline]] Post [[/underline]] to be admitted to the Regents' meeting and unanimously recommended to the Board that it maintain its current policy of meeting in closed session. He reminded the Regents of their discussion of this question several years ago and suggested that there had been no substantial change in the prevailing conditions for the conduct of the Regents' business. As no proposal to the contrary was put forth, it was the consensus of the Board that the current policy should stay in effect, and Mr. Mineta wished to be recorded, as in the past, as being desirous of open meetings.
