A final note that the "Pension Administration Project," the mysterious item that has appeared in closed sessions of numerous past Regents meetings, does not appear in this one. Perhaps the fact that inquiries have been made about what the Project is or was has led the powers-that-be to keep it off the agenda, at least temporarily. We'll see if it reappears at the March meetings.
