Let it be resolved that

The BFA considers the Provost's suggestion a reasonable course of action subject to the following conditions:

1) Some of the monies that would have otherwise been spent in the faculty computer purchase program be reserved to assist faculty whose research and teaching will be compromised by postponing the funding.
