Special Guest:
Website Redevelopment Project – Tracey Hummel
Part of the Web
team (Tracey Hummel, Janis Leibold, Cathy Nicholson) presented the
new website (redesigned) to the group. They have also been
presenting the new site to other groups for their input. During the
summer, everyone will have an opportunity/option to use the new site
and send in his or her views to the team. Timetable for completion
is summer, 2005. One neat feature is the breadcrumbs that let you
go as deep as you want. From the main website Faculty and Staff
will have their own mini homepage. Departments will be able to send
announcement pertaining to faculty and staff to be posted. Another
feature is Quick Link-that will let you customize bookmarks to
individual use (add and edit only UA sites). On this site some of
the categories will be workplace resources, employee resources and
additional information that link to pertinent information for each
category.
Human Resources
Department – Cathy Nicholson (HR Liaison)
Employment
screening is now available. Call Cathy if you have questions.
Leslie Porter is preparing Guidelines and instructions, which will
be a bridge between policy and forms. Department must do
pre-employment Screening. See HR website for forms. References
must be checked (mandatory).

can work. We will need two per shift to man the table. One table
