Happy Summer Days, Commission Members!  Just a quick e-mail to "keep in touch".

2005 NACADA Award Recipients

We have quite a few commission members who received 2005 NACADA awards and will be honored at the Las Vegas conference in October. Please join me in giving a cyberspace "high five" to Mary Edgette Keenan, Martina Stewart, Betsy McCalla-Wriggins, Kathleen Shea Smith, Joy Lock, Wanda Martin, Susan Campbell, Maxine Proctor, Lanie Lockwood, Jennifer McCaul, Jesus Perez, Delaine Priest, Lynne Higa, and Alice Reinarz; and to George Steele, Dorothy Burton and Chris Farren who nominated their colleagues and staff who developed technology innovations that received awards. Visit www.nacada.ksu.edu/Commissions/C05/awards.htm on our commission web site to see a complete list of the recipients and their respective award categories.

I hope these individuals can be in Las Vegas so we can give them the real "high five" round of applause at our commission meeting on Thursday, October 6, from 3:15-4:15pm!


Advising Administrators' Tips on web

The tips have been updated at www.nacada.ksu.edu/Commissions/C05/C05-Resources-Tips.htm. Please respond to the topic for June-July - "Group Advising". You may submit tips on any of the topics at anytime, and I will have them updated as we go along throughout the year.


Commission Chair Nominees Sought

 

I am looking for nominees willing to run for the position as Chair of our commission. This position will be elected early next year for the 2006-2008 term. If you are interested or wish to nominate someone, please let me know! Yes, this position does involve some work, but everyone has been so helpful and encouraging through my first year as chair that it makes up for the work. For more information and an online nomination form, visit the NACADA web site at www.nacada.ksu.edu/Election/index.htm.

Watch for the September 2005 issue, which features an article by me about hiring. (A subject near and dear to my heart and yours, I'm sure!)

Stay cool!
