Fall & Finance

Hi Everyone,

We have the agenda for the upcoming full Staff Council meeting (Tuesday, October 7, 2008). You can read it online on the Council website or get a printable version here. The Standing Committee reports that we review at the Council meeting will be printed in the October Staffline(which should be out soon). I don't know if they'll have a separate place of their own on the website, but the Staffline itself is posted there, so you will be able to get them if you want them.

Richard Cate, Interim Vice president of Finance and Administration, will address the Council at the start of the meeting. He'd probably be an interesting speaker anyway, but the current financial situation adds some import to what he tells us. There is a Q & A period scheduled for afterwards, so if you have any questions for Mr. Cate you can ask a Council rep to bring them, or come to the meeting yourself. If you didn't get a chance yet, this might be a good time to browse the current Board of Trustee finance documents posted in the right hand column.

Well, Fall has arrived, complete with students carrying laptops, report assignments, and respiratory viruses. Take your vitamins, and have a good week,

Joanne
