Dear Staff Community-

Several weeks ago you had the opportunity to vote on your preferred format
for the new Staff Council. 56 responses were received, and the Advisory
Team format stood out as preferred. We are now calling for volunteers to
express interest in being part of the new Advisory Team. Interested staff
members should submit emails to Amy McGill per the instructions below:

Eligibility: Any staff member is eligible to volunteer except for senior
administration (members of the President’s Staff, Deans, JMCNS Director).

Volunteer statement:  Each volunteer will express his or her interest by
submitting a personal statement that describes the issues that s/he would
hope to address as a member of the team. Volunteer statements should be
submitted to Amy McGill via email (mcgill@exchange.miis.edu) by March 23,
2009.

Selection: The first team will be selected from among the volunteers by
the current working group.  Each team will be responsible for selecting
the following year’s team through the same process. The goal of the
selection process will be to keep participation voluntary, dynamic,
diverse, and flexible.

We have also attached the approved proposal which we encourage you to read
which provides more information about the background, vision, process,
etc.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact any of the Working
Group members listed below:

Karen Weiss, Dean’s Assistant GSTI
Priscilla Lorenzo, Office Services Coordinator
Toni Thomas, MBA Academic Advisor and Program Coordinator
Lynn McDonald, Postgraduate Fellow in Organizational Development
Susan Wolfe, Manager of Foundation and Corporate Relations
