Academic Staff: a professional and administrative employee other than faculty with duties and types of appointments that are primarily associated with higher education institutions or their administration.  Each academic staff has a principal role related to research, teaching, outreach, student services, information technology, libraries, communications, clinical/health services, or other responsibilities. 

1. Academic Staff are respected professionals who hold positions in virtually every unit on campus. These positions are either unique to higher education and/or provide direct support for academic programming and/or develop and implement policies at UW-Madison. The academic staff contribute daily to the quality and reputation of a University recognized and respected around the world. Learn more.

Active Directory is a collection of network resources that can contain users, computers, printers, groups, and even other Active Directories. Active Directory services allow administrators to handle and maintain all network resources from a single location, providing users access to the network resources they need to get their work done. Active Directory is a feature primarily of Microsoft Windows, although other operating systems can participate in it to a limited degree.

AD services control much of the activity that goes on in WCER’s network environment. In particular, they make sure each person is who they claim to be (authentication), usually by checking the username and password they enter, and allow them to access only the data they’re allowed to use (authorization).

In general, WCER users don't need to know how to configure their computers to connect to the Active Directory domain. If your device is provided by WCER, Research IT has configured this for you.

An activity is an action that you can take for a submission. For example, if a study team wants to respond to pre-review issues, they would use the Send Issues Response activity. Activities are always listed on the left of each study workspace. The list of activities changes based on a user's role in ARROW and what state a submission is in.

A measure of the amount of protein in a feed determined as the amount of nitrogen multiplied by 6.25. The factor 6.25 is the average grams of protein that contains 1 gram of nitrogen. The word "crude" refers to the fact that not all nitrogen in most feed is exclusively in the form of protein. Because most feeds contain non-protein nitrogen (NPN), crude protein generally overestimates the actual protein content of a feed.

Packaging Status (Y/N) shows whether or not a student has received their initial financial aid offer for a given academic year. If the student has submitted a FAFSA and received their initial financial aid offer, they will have the value of "Y." If the student has submitted their FAFSA but does not have a financial aid offer yet, it will show the value of "N." If the student has not submitted the FAFSA, the value will be blank. The intention of this data point is to offer more clarity around a student's financial information. There are several important things to remember when referencing this data point:

• You should not use this data point as a qualification. Doing so might negatively impact students in the process of completing verification.
• Even if a student has received their financial aid offer (i.e. has a "Y"), their financial aid offer may still change. OSFA is required by federal regulations to adjust student financial aid offers if a student receive additional financial aid (ie. scholarships, fellowships etc) after they receive their initial financial aid offer. A student may also experience a dramatic change to their financial situation (i.e. parent retiring, loss of parent's job) that might cause a re-evaluation of the student's financial aid offer.
• When summer enrollment begins in late spring, you may see some students who were previously marked as "Y" move to "N." Summer financial aid offers use the same FAFSA data as the preceding academic year. These students still have their academic year offers. For next year offers (so the future academic year), this will not be an issue.

The USDA Economic Research Service (ERS) defines food insecurity as a household characteristic. Food insecure households are those for which “consistent access to adequate food is limited by a lack of money and other resources at times during the year” (See more at: USDA-ERS).

The state of being without reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food. During the first decade of this century, more than 800 million people live every day with hunger or food insecurity as their constant companion (see also National Academy of Science definitions).

Food security exists “when all people at all times have access to sufficient, safe, nutritious food to maintain a healthy and active life.” According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the three pillars of food security are: availability, access and (safe) utilization. In addition you can learn about the four dimensions of food insecurity at the FAO website.

There are two basic ways that we count the number of employees. When we use headcount, each individual person counts as one employee whether their appointment is full time or part time. When we use "FTE," we are using the "Full Time Equivalent."

The Full Time Equivalent is the total of all positions using the percentage of the appointment rather than the number of individual employees. This is what the headcount looks like for the same employees using each measure:

Employee A - .5 appointment
Employee B - 1.0 appointment
Employee C - .6 appointment
Employee D - .4 appointment

Using Headcount, there are 4 employees
Using FTE, there are 2.5 employees (.5 + 1 + .6 + .4 = 2.5)

Standard deviation (SD) is a measure of the dispersion of a set of data from its mean. If the data points are further from the mean, there is higher deviation within the data set. The SD shares the same unit as the mean. The SD is calculated as the square root of variance by determining the variation between each data point relative to the mean. The symbol for standard deviation is σ (the Greek letter sigma). Approximately, in a normal distribution,
38% of all observations are within ± 0.5 SD units of the mean;
68% of all observations are within ± 1 SD units of the mean;
95% of all observations are within ± 2 SD units of the mean;
99% of all observations are within ± 3 SDunits of the mean.

Narrowly defined, SI refers to increase food production from existing farmland in ways that place far less pressure on the environment and that do not undermine our capacity to continue producing food in the future. However, Garnett et al. (2013) added the following four premises underlying SI: (a) The need to increase production; (b) Increase production must be met through higher yields because increasing the area of land in agriculture carries major environmental costs; (c) Food security requires as much attention to increasing environmental sustainability as to raising productivity; and (d) SI denotes a goal but does not specify a priori how it should be attained or which agricultural techniques to deploy.
