My two cents:
You know, at the Annual Meeting we started our discussion about the
TBLC needing
a genuine Mission & Vision Statement to then guide our Strategic
Planning. We have
none of these yet. We should probably start with an agreed-upon
definition of what
TBL is, and it should be the same statement for faculty and students.
Larry Michaelsen: time to pipe in on this one.
