Fall 2014 Goals - updated

Fall 2014 Goals

Here's a scary thought - with the start of the fall semester, it's time to follow up on projects that either got started and never went anywhere, or were supposed to be in the works. Progress in red

1. Contact Eagle Biodiesel to meet with the board for 2014
2. Talk to Kevin Warner, Dance, regarding thesis submission process
3. Talk to KW, D, regarding digitization of paper theses Dance has hired W/S student. Follow up with Pam Callen in Sept. to see how that is going.
4. Talk to KW, D, regarding permission process - is this something that the Dance department could help out with?
5. Find out what happened with the Rochester Reform Trail, is there anything that I can help with? Sent follow up email on 9/2/2014.- No response - follow up again?
6. Try desperately to get a clerical staff person, maybe up to .5 FTE: POS suggests Kristin. Check with POS when this is going to happen.
7. Meet with the ESB folks: Student research posters, thesis concerns, defense presentations: Meeting set up for 10:30 on Friday, Sept. 5th, with Chris N, and Jacques R. in Collaboratory. Meeting went well. They requested 1 year embargo on all theses (put in place as of 9/15/2014), took back information on additional options to faculty. If no further correspondence by 10/1, follow up with them about final decision made at faculty meeting.
8. Big conferences on the table: Diversity, - going well. Scholars Day - meeting with Marketing and CD today to discuss, SURC - initial meeting with Jamie and Jules on Tuesday (9/16)
9. Prepare for webinar: November 13th with Debby, Charlie, Greg and Susan
10. Help launch Jigsaw - 9/17, received and sent out for approval to AH what I hope will be our final iteration of Jigsaw.
11. Follow up with Journal of Literary Onomastics, re: POD option
12. Launch Literary Onomastic Studies 
13. Who needs ISSNs? Everyone (Jigsaw [e & I?], The Spectrum - is this an ongoing journal at this point?, Dissenting Voices [e ], LOS - online version)
14. Honors theses - where are we with those? Got a big collection in 2012, nothing since
15. Pat's Chancellor's Award nomination packet
16. Meet with the Education department, are they still good with the thesis submission process? What names need to be added or deleted as Advisers?
17. Work with Charlie on the Oral History project
18. Complete annual report 
19. Contact BIR, for the annual AI download
20. CELT collection
