Minutes for March 7, 2002, were approved
II. Polishing priorities
It was announced that goals for the Service, Community Relations, and
Academic Distinction areas are pretty close to completion. Attendees broke
into subgroups to continue work on Diversity and Technology goals. The
remaining attendees began work on writing the rationale statements for
Community Relations and Service groups.
Technology, Service, Community Relations, and Diversity visions were read
by each of the groups. It was noted that some are in the conceptual phase.
Jeanne asked everyone to send his or her statements to her for distribution
to everyone on the committee. It was noted that there is some overlap
or synergy that will need to be addressed. Jeanne expressed that the committee's
assignment is to get the words to her electronically in time for her to
complete her assignment, which is to assemble and distribute them to everyone
prior to the next meeting.
The next step will be to look at performance indicators and find those that effectively determine when success is being achieved on the goals.
The following assignment is to communicate with the campus community on the results
III. Envisioning our future
