HeadsUp--Faculty Meeting April 15
Welcome back to campus after a brief but well deserved Spring Holiday Break. We've got four more weeks to the end of the semester...here we go.
We've got a faculty meeting this Wednesday at 3:00 * in Craig 336. Please plan to attend this meeting as Dean Carey Adams is our guest and main agenda item. Below is a brief agenda:
-
Dean Adams: Q&A about productivity issues, course minimums. and enrollment management. Please come with questions you have for the dean about his response to the President's memo, and any other issues you want to raise with him. This is also an opportunity to discuss our enrollment strategies as well as inquire about administrative reassigned time, etc.
-
Update on NFA tournament with Drury: This begins on Thursday, April 16 and runs through Sunday evening on our campus. We planned to use the event as an opportunity to recruit to our graduate programs. Curt tells me that Saturday and Sunday are good time to have a table in the PSU to meet with students to talk with them and program information. I'll have sign up sheets for those times at our meeting Wednesday. We might also ask a few of the graduate students to be at the table for a few spots.
-
If time, we may hear again from the Writing Test sub committee, get an update on the Health Com major revisions, and other updates and announcements as you have them. Let me know if you have an agenda item you'd like to add.
