1. We discussed using a "wiki" to edit the existing, and out-dated Faculty Handbook - see http://profj.us/handbook

M/S/A that Staff Development will post the faculty handbook on a wiki, and work with other faculty to update the faculty handbook so that it can be ready for Fall 2006 Flex Day.

the wiki was established at http://faculty-handbook.pbwiki.com

and faculty were emailed and encouraged to help Staff Development in editing,updating and contributing to the wiki.

2. We discussed establishing a dedicated Faculty Training Area, possibly in LRC 205, or in faculty offices. DJ will contact Gary Prostak to discuss work environment issues for establishing such a dedicated training location.
