Public Service and Outreach Planning
Commission
12/1/99 Meeting Agenda
12:00 - 1:30 p.m.
Newcomb Hall, Room 389
1. Status Report (Continued)
I am attaching an edited draft of the
report we will be discussing. As you recall from our last meeting, this report will be
shared with President Casteen, the vice presidents, deans, and other university leadership
at a December 13 workshop regarding the status of the commissions' work. Our report
reflects the work of our exploratory groups, commission meetings, informal focus groups,
and additional information provided by our consultants, our visits to conferences, and our
research. I have incorporated the suggestions received thus far (please check to see if
your suggestion has been noted), and have been intentionally bold in some cases in order
to stimulate discussion and identify our areas of consensus. I also have tried to weave
common themes into major recommendations, but may be omitting or de-emphasizing issues
that should be addressed. Please read this brief summary document (you already have the
supporting documents) and come ready to discuss (and improve) it Wednesday with your
additions, corrections, etc. Thanks to all who have already sent suggestions for our
discussion.
2. Winter Tasks (Continued)
We want to survey your preferences with regard to our continuing work in the following
areas for January-March:
- Focus Groups
- Benchmarking
- Evaluation Metrics for Public Service
- Communications Plan
3. Loose Ends
Time permitting, we will have questions/comments/announcements about exploratory group
updates and additional benchmark information.
