Really June at Last

Hi Everyone,

There's more information concerning the Staff Council officer elections posted on the Council homepage: names of the candidates for President and Vice President, brief campaign statements, and dates for public candidate forums.

The second set of forums will be at the full Council meeting on June 3rd at 12:10 pm, in its usual Davis Center site. Here is the agenda on the Staff Council website--please try to attend or encourage others to come and take part.

I'll be filming the candidates' forum presentations, and hopefully posting them online here for staff who can't attend. This is the first full-staff vote ever for the Council officers, and having a chance to see them may help some people make up their minds, or decide whether to vote at all. As soon as they're done and posted, I'll get the links to you and provide them to the Council Office too. The videos will only be available for the period of time the vote is open--after it closes they'll come down; so if you get a chance to watch them, don't wait too long.

Next, just when you thought it was safe to look away from the right-hand column, I have some more Board of Trustees financial documents for your examination. Two are the agenda and summary of the 5/27/08 meeting of the Investment Subcommittee, and the other two are the summary and agenda for the RFP( Request For Proposal) Subcommittee's meetings on 5/28 and 6/2/08.

The June Staffline is out, with a congratulatory notice about the Bailey Howe's Darcelene Lewis-Wedge being named a 2008 award winner for the State of Vermont’s Commission on National and Community Service! Yay Darcelene!

Well, I hope everyone's garden is getting off to a good start--I know the woodchucks have been quite pleased with mine!


Have a good week,

Joanne
