Agenda
Opening Announcements – Randy Livingston - we will be ordering SAC shirts
and Joyce will be asking for sizes. Have gotten 3 bids for shirts - red
polos. Retreat meeting tomorrow any suggestions send to Randy, Eva or Joyce.
Introduced those running for office and thanked all those for their
willingness to serve.
Claudia gave a report on the survey monkey project. Came up with 12
questions and will send a preview to board for review with the 3D memo.
Randy is comprising list of committees, how often does it meet and what
is the time required.
Retreat is on July 10 at Westward Look. Guest speakers after lunch will
be Caryn Jung and Jan Sturgess: dealing with multiple time requirements
while a SAC member. Professional development time not vacation to attend.
Planning for the new year, committee work, team building.
Eva went to the HR Career Change after hours. Open forum with pamphlets
on interviewing and resumes. Talked about furloughs but it is up to the
dept. Want us to champion the notice time to staff for loss of employment.
30 days is recommended like AP but it is not clearly written. If the policy
is currently at the will of the dept head, then we should take it to them
that a minimum of 30 days if at all possible. Is this an ABOR policy or UA.
HR committee should check into this with Leslie Porter.
