Mike, 

Thanks for the double catch.  Yes the next TB is Feb 7 NOT Feb 2. I also
provided an updated link for the report.  It can be had at:

http://www.oneonta.edu/academics/teachingbreakfast/links.html

See the first link on this page.

> Hello Jim,
>  
> Thanks for sending your note concerning the proposed topic for the next
> Teaching Breakfast which, I think is February 7th as it appears in your
> subject header and not February 2nd.  The reason for this note is to report
> that the site for former Provost Salin's paper is no longer active and the
> paper cannot be viewed there.  If you know of an alternative place where it
> can be viewed let us know.  I believe, along with yourself and members of our
> past and current administration that faculty professional development is
> critically important to the health of the faculty and to the success of the
> institution.  I look forward to attending the Teaching Breakfast.

> Back in December of 2004 the Advisory Task Force on Faculty Development,
> formed by then Provost of SUNY Peter Salins, published a Faculty Development
> Initiative paper for SUNY (see
> http://www.suny.edu/provost/FacultyDevelopmentReportdist10-26-05.doc).   Since
> that time, a slow but steady ground swell has started in various places within
> SUNY trying to address that report's recommendations.  For example, the
> University Faculty Senate of SUNY recently announced a Faculty Professional
> Development Conference - (see copy/paste below from their website at:
> http://www.suny.edu/facultySenate/. <http://www.suny.edu/facultySenate/>  )
> 
> If you have time, please look over the report and conference agenda. I am very
> interested in your thoughts about this initiative and would like to have a
> discussion about it over coffee at our next TB on Feb. 2 at 8 am in Morris
> Hall.  Thanks for your time and hope to see you then.
