Hi Everyone,

In response to Hilton and Chris, the Faculty Development Implementation Plan, the Faculty Development Task Force Report, and the membership of the Faculty Development Council are now available on the Provost’s Website at http://www.suny.edu/provost/facultydevelopment.cfm <http://www.suny.edu/provost/facultydevelopment.cfm> . I am attaching copies to this email in case you haven’t already received them.

Among other things, notice the action item that "The Faculty Development Council will organize a conference to be held in 2007. See Appendix D for conference agenda suggestions." We are thinking about February or March for this SUNY-wide conference, and Denise Bukovan and I have been working on a grant to provide partial funding for it.

I was talking to Kimberley Reiser today, and we thought that it might be good to involve the organizers of the regional faculty development meetings in the organization of the State-wide conference. What do you think? Would those organizers please identify themselves so we can see which regions are holding meetings, which colleges are participating in the meetings, and who is bringing them together.

This listserv is really helpful.

Fred

Everyone must be swamped with beginning of the semester  activities!
 

To respond to Hilton's request, I thought the meeting at  Westchester CC went great. April is a good a time a year as any. As far as our  agenda, I think we should schedule all of the time for networking and  strategic planning. The presentation on strengthsquest was interesting but I  would rather have talked with all of you more. Any thoughts from the rest of  the group? And I can help out with whatever you need Hilton, just let me  know.
 

Cheers,
 

Chris

Hello everyone!
 

I hope you've had a good summer and that you're refreshed and  ready for fall.
 

Last spring, at the end of our gathering at Westchester  Community College, I offered Binghamton University as a possible site for  another gathering this coming year. I'd like to begin discussions of that, and  pose these questions for all of us to respond to:
 

•  What theme or programming would be valuable and  interesting?
•  Are there efforts from SUNY  Administration we should know more about?
•   Should there be any changes to format and timing (or follow last April's  overall structure again)?
 

I'm sure there are other topics that we should discuss. I hope  there will be lots of input as the 2007 conference takes shape - let's make  this a collaborative creation, as much as possible.
 

Our office here in Binghamton can handle logistics related to  campus meeting spaces, catering, etc. But I'd also like to hear from anyone  who can help with other organizing details.
 

Thanks!
