to review morale and discipline, social climate, strategic 
communication, infrastructure, and other matters relating to the 
Academy. Specific topics for this meeting include a Superintendent's 
Update; Capital Projects and Construction Update; Status of Discipline; 
Graduate Assessment Update.
    Public Accessibility to the Meeting: Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552b, as
