Safety Committee (Mike Gorman)
The Committee is also looking to put emergency procedures and exit maps in all classrooms and conference rooms that would reduce the need for an after-hours emergency procedure.
Newsletter Committee (Julie Range)
The newsletter is scheduled to be online on 5/17 featuring the Staff Awards ceremony.
Staff Awards Committee (David Avin)
123 people participated in the Staff Awards with 96 signing the guest book. The event ran $35 over budget. Thanks to David Avin for the flowers from his garden and the jars donated by Susan Christopher. David suggested that the SRG stay in-charge of Staff Awards next year rather than Dean’s Office counting ballots, elections, etc. Two of the three winners asked who was responsible for the final tally.
