Staff Council Chair Report:
Suzanne reported that no meeting with Dr. Haynes as of this date, but she
did attend the Cabinet retreat.
-
New Business:
Wayne Beran reported on the UW Building Addition and Renovation. He stated
that a new metal building will be purchased for facilities and West will
be renovated. Hoping for a December ground breaking but moving electric
lines were being looked into at this time and may cause a delay. Each of
the Schools would be getting additional space, LEAD area will become a
community type area, and Greg Fanelli’s group will be moving. Looks like we
are losing 35 parking spaces, but before it is all said and done, we may get
them back on the other side of UW.
Rachel Trevino-Garcia - Coordinator of Career Services discussed the new
web site and new services available since we have connected with UH Main and
Dr. David Small. She presented a 15 minute Power Point presentation and
passed out information to everyone.
Staff Council Subcommittees were urged to meet and have elections and report
back.
Suggestion box issue received regarding Student Worker of the Month. This
discussed and it was decided that this position was so temporary in nature
that it would be difficult to do. Suzanne will prepare a response and
forward to Yolanda Gonzalez for posting.
Laura Smith discussed the Employee Of the Month $30.00 gift certificates
that they would like to use from the Chamber of Commerce. It can be used at
a variety of different places and not limited to one or two choices. No
objections from the members.
-
Old Business:
SAC Update - SACS visit will be March 31 thru April 3, 2003.
The committee is working on draft 3 and the SACS Self Study now and in
October will add introduction, concluding comments. They will check the
document and do final editing after that.
Staff Council Constitution - Discussion on Article 8 and making
amendments in color or bolded. Nilda Ortiz suggested that we go
back and review the constitution. A motion was made by Dixie Burge that a
constitution committee review and make suggestions/revisions and bring it
back to the Staff Council for approval. Sharon Long seconded this motion
The committee will be the Executive committee, Nilda Ortiz and Linda Turley
