Academic Staff Committee (ASC) Liaison Daniel Fuhrmann briefed us on the ASC’s discussion of several Academic Staff workload issues, and further developments regarding an Academic Staff mentoring program.

We also met with Vice Chancellor Joan Prince who discussed with us Carnegie Foundation “Elective Community Engagement Classification” which our campus will be applying for later this year.  If our application is successful, this designation will allow UW-Milwaukee faculty and staff to apply to a new source for project funding.
