As per usual, a trustee who missed a meeting of the board will be paid anyway. Evidently, it was determined that Mr. Fuentes missed the meeting in question owing to a "hardship."

Sounds good, I guess. But I bet Fuentes will carp about 6 and maybe even 4. Noncompetition! How unAmerican!

     Item 7.1 is an information (i.e., non-action) item about coming guest speakers at Saddleback College, including "Rainn Wilson." Do you suppose it's the Rainn Wilson of "The Office"? Guess so.


Evidently, Mr. Wilson created the Soul Pancake website
