Workshops/Conferences

In order to share and implement new ideas, Danita announced that she would like for anyone attending a workshop or conference to present what was learned when they return.

Table Top Discussions

The topic of the last Table Top Discussions was Pandemic Flu.  Discussion included what we would do before and during if such a thing were to happen.  Danita stressed that if you have sick students or employees you should send them home and if you are sick to stay home.

Student Services In-Service Day

Danita asked for suggestions as to the best time for all Student Service offices to meet for a half-day in-service update.

Oracle

Any director not familiar with the Oracle process should meet with Jack Simpkin for individual training.  Danita will ask that monthly budget updates be brought to bi-weekly meetings once a month.
