Review report outs from sub-group meetings since last plenary

Billy Buchanan (Deactivated) summarized status of the User Experience Sub-group, focused on completing the Student Discipline Use Case . The remaining work is to determine/assert how to handle time period, and whether or not a semantic approach can be taken. Jeremy Thigpen (Unlicensed) offered to bring prior experience in Wyoming to help define. THis will be done asynchronously, to update the use case
Tech Subgroup updates - deferred to the 2nd partion of the agenda
Rosh Dhanawade and Glynn Ligon (Unlicensed) provided an update on the most recent Dashboard sub-group meeting:
- ESP has engaged a 3rd party UI expert - who has done other work for them, and they are doing an assessment of the level of effort to upgrade the current Dashboard UI. They are also going to provide details on options for creating mobile-friendly reports/views - that represent a subset of the desktop dashboard experience (for example, excluding watchlists)
- The recommendations are expected in a couple of weeks, and the next Dashboard subgroup meeting will be scheduled when this information is available to review and discuss,
