Discussion centered on adopting a budget of approximately $3,500for the three years and a tentative timetable was set up for the work of the Committee. Bishop Moore distributed copies of the Joint Rules of Order which apply to our Committee as well as pertinent resolutions and other materials. There was much discussion about the process of nomination in the Church and it was determined that Mr. Worden will research and determine for the Committee the exact number of nominations which we must make, after consultation with Dr. Gundrum, and thenshare the information with the Committee as soon as possible. The Committee discussed both the criteria for selection of nominees and the need to ascertain or communicate something aboutthe responsibility of each position. Dr. Gasek was assigned the responsibility for gathering this information and sharing through a "press release" how we see our task, the whole process ofnominations, and our deter­ mination to carry it out in a sensitive and serious matter. There was voiced a concern for the fairness of the process as it applies to nominees of this Committee and those nominated from the floor of the General Convention. The Committee accepted Dr. Taylor's recommendation that our nominations include the following factors: full discussion, individual ballots by members, selecting the best person(s), then working for balance. It was decided that the Chairman be authorized, if he deems it necessary, to have an interim meeting before 1979.
