Staff committee
wants staff input
The Staff Committee has met
recently to discuss several
issues, including staff involvement in decision making on campus. The committee would appreciate hearing from any staff member
who has suggestions of areas which
they consider under-represented by
staff participation. If you have any
suggestions, please contact Linda
Foley, Chair of the Staff Committee.
Linda is in the Purchasing Office.
Alan Hirormura, a member of the
Reg Fee Committee, has announced
that on March 29 there will be a
brown bag lunch to discuss the Reg
Fee Committee process and deliberations. Anyone interested should
show up at Kresge 159 (Seminar
Room) at 12 noon on that date.
Bring your own lunch.
Policy changed
for groups using
campus
Chancellor Sinsheimer has
changed the University's policy about non-university
organizations using campus
facilities.
From now on, any event which a
non-campus organization plans,
using University facilities, must be
co-sponsored by a campus unit or a
registered campus organization.
The co-sponsor relationship must
be approved by the appropriate
senior admisistrative officer: the
academic vice chancellor, the chief
financial officer, the director of student services, or the assistant chancellor for university relations.
There are two purposes for the
change: first, to strengthen the accountability of University groups
for the events they co-sponsor; and
second, to reduce the University's
liability and assure proper management of possible commercial aspects
of these events.
