"Leap" Into February

Hi Everyone,

The agenda for the upcoming February 5th meeting is available on the Council website, or here in printable format. At this meeting we'll get our first chance to consider in full Council the revisions proposed to the Constitution and By-Laws by the Rules and Election Committee.

I can't praise this group enough for their hard work and the quality of their final product. The proposed rules are complete, comprehensive, and workable; no small feat with such a large and diverse body of staff to consider, and on a tight deadline too! We should be proud of Scott, one of our own Library reps on this committee-take a moment to thank him if you can. (The other committee members are listed here online; thank them too, if you can get or make the opportunity)

Please note that the regular 2/5 meeting will take place in the usual Livak Ballroom location, while the special second meeting scheduled for 2/19 will be located in the Grand Maple Ballroom of the Davis Center.

The February Staffline is also now available on the website. This month's issue contains Committee Reports, Recreation news and event registration forms, Council News and FAQ's, Wellness programs information, and upcoming Council meeting schedules.

Here's hoping that no one was too seriously inconvenienced by the weekend's ice storm--and let's give three cheers to our physical plant colleagues who kept the roads and walkways safe for the rest of us! Enjoy the beauty of the winter, travel safely, and stay warm.

Have a good weekend,

Joanne
