Purpose and use of the blog

To all Faculty at VCU:

This blog is a public forum for faculty voice at VCU. There has been a call for a public space to discuss the recent meeting with Dr. Trani and, eventually, perhaps,other issues. Either Liz Canfield or I will have to allow you access to blogging here the first time. This way we can keep hacker-types from posting untoward remarks.

Should you want to post something anonymously, you can email either Liz or me, indicating that you want us to post your comments without your name.

If you are a Senator, the BlackBoard site for Faculty Senate allows anonymous postings. That space, however, is limited to current Senators.

If you have any ideas or concerns about these media, do not hesitate to write, speak, call, or email Liz or me.

And, finally, Faculty Senate meetings are open to the public. You are always welcome to articulate your concerns at our posted meetings. I would appreciate forewarning of your desire to speak.

Thank you,
Kathryn

March 6th Meeting Location Changed!

On March 6th, the Faculty Senate will meet in the Lyons Building, Room 424 rather than the Student Lounge, because there will be a presentation about the Banner system that day and we need a "smart room" to do the demonstration. Please mark your calendars with the location change. See you then!
