Oops, sorry. Now that I look at your html, that CSS rule won't work
because you don't actually have the child UL inside LI tags. Your code
looks like this:
<snip>
<ul>
<li>To oversee all university academic
policies
<li>To review changes in programs or
courses where those changes
affect other schools
<li>To approve courses for the general
education program
<li>To approve general education course
revisions
<ul>
<li>more information
<li>more information
</ul>
<li>To assess the students' development
of core abilities
</ul>
</snip>
For my recommendation to work it would have to be like this:
<ul>
<li>To oversee all university academic
policies
<li>To review changes in programs or
courses where those changes
affect other schools
<li>To approve courses for the general
education program
<li>To approve general education course
revisions
<li><ul>
<li>more information
<li>more information
</ul></li>
<li>To assess the students' development
of core abilities
</ul>
