Meeting

11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.

302 Teacher Education Building (conference room just outside the main entrance to the MERIT Library at the top of the stairs)

Agenda

NOTE: In light of the current state budget situation, UW New Badger Partnership and other issues, we can have an overall discussion about these items, to build upon what we have been previously discussing. What is the assessment, for an overall Communications standpoint, about these items? What is our role? What are our strategies? How is the campus doing in regards to communicating about these issues? What are the impacts for Academic Staff?

1.) Continue discussion of topics and strategies/ASSC's role with them, from previous ASSC discussions (e.g., 1/7/11 meeting and beyond). See minutes from the 1/7/11 meeting for a summary of the topics. Compare with similar topics and messages coming from related academic staff organizations (MASA, ASPRO, Secretary of Academic Staff, ASEC, etc.).

2.) Update on Academic Staff Branding Proposal.

3.) Additional announcements or agenda items.

4.) Next meeting, Friday, May 13, 2011, 11:30 to 1:00 p.m., 302 Teacher Education.
