The Task Force recommends that several items be included on future RPP agendas:

• Common Management System (CMS)
  The RPP Task Force will reconvene in Fall 2001 and Spring 2002 to receive updates on the CMS Initiative.
• Planning in a No-Growth Era
  The RPP Task Force will reconvene in Fall 2001 to further discuss budget planning parameters and process for future years.
• Reports on Use of Funding
  The RPP Task Force recommends that in the Fall 2001, all divisions receiving budget augmentations from the President in 2001-02, including funding for increased workload, report to the Financial Affairs Council (FAC) on their expenditure plans. Then in spring 2002 each division will report on their utilization of these funds to FAC.
• Tenure Density
  A study group will continue to work over the summer and report to RPP in the Fall.
• Year Round Operations (YRO)
  The RPP Task Force will reconvene in Fall 2001 to receive an update from the Year Round Operations Committee. The Task Force will stand ready to provide further advice and guidance on specific issues.
