Steering Committee Update: June 21, 2010

Present: Badertscher, Boyd, Christel, Cochrane, English, Palmer, Upfold

2. Follow up to June 18 workshop

• Need link to the workshop on the NGL Staff Development Web pages.
• Jessica C. shot digital video of speakers. She and Amy are working on putting it up on web site, if quality allows.
  

3. Updates from committees

• Tech. Infrastructure will coordinate orientation for Catalina; she will start July 6^th. Alan is looking for orientation options for her at the campuses
• Need suggested questions for staff survey that’s in development; Amy will have Staff Dev. Committee look at it; we would like to have a draft for Ron when he returns from vacation.
  

4. Catalina's early schedule/projects

• Tech. Infrastructure Committee suggests a videoconference soon to local projects when all current digital projects have been approved to see where synergies & collaborations are possible and what’s needed immediately to support them
• Scottie suggested that maybe Catalina’s 2^nd week she can visit each of the campuses to meet all the staff, get a briefing on the projects approved so far for that campus, decide where she’ll want to stay when she’s there, find her way around, etc. The idea is to get the lay of the land without starting project work during this first visit.
• what project management approach/software/etc. will we want to use? One basic suggestion to start is that Catalina keep an accessible Google calendar.
• Mark and Alan will send draft orientation schedule to Steering cttee
  

5. Local budget/reimbursement categories

• Campuses can bill the OH5 office quarterly, but if someone has a big expense, Susan can send $$ in advance to cover that. Susan is working with the financial offices to get the procedures and accounts set up.
• Alan & Susan will do a mock-up of categories like this for our suggestions & approval.
