II - Evaluations

PC confirmed that Music of the World - Thursdays, hosted by Stephen Kent and Music of the World - Fridays, hosted by David McBurnie were both approved for extension.

III - Special Programming

Available PA staff confirmed that KPFA would not be recording audio at "American and It's Wars". PC discussed challenges of union regulations requiring audio staff to be paid (thus preventing the use of volunteer labor) and the limitations this places on the number of events that can be taped for use in PA segments.

Discussed the final date for Asian Pacific Heritage Month Special. Still not sure if it's May 26th or May 27th.

IV - Ongoing Programming

Work Week review scheduled for April 24th - giving PC members two weeks to listen to the pilot. There is some objection to not postponning the review until the post-June period and/or requiring a new paper proposal, but the majority of PC members present agreed that they would like to proceed with the review in a timely manner and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the new demo tape that has been provided.

PC still waiting on a suggestion/recommendation from the I-PD for Saturday AM programming from 10-noon.

Discussed brifly the status of the Youth Radio negotiations.
