Elizabeth will talk with Kim Ferguson about joining this committee, as another voice to represent staff.

b)      Faculty – Elizabeth will meet with the department chairs to discuss ways in which to encourage faculty use of the PD forms, how/when the data might be collected and a method to provide feedback on the forms.  Dottie is promoting the use of the PD forms at her individual meetings with faculty this semester.
