  1. Micro-aggression training last week – Those who attended felt information was useful.
  1. CANR Staff Community Norms – Dean is wanting SAC to put together a staff focus set of Community Norms. Colin will send us what the CAC has, and we can use that as a starting point to apply as much as we can to stay consistent.  Some points we need to be aware of are different union groups, salary vs hourly, off-campus locations, etc.  At our May meeting we will try to get some major ideas down.
  1. Anonymous feedback from staff – Colin will send out the final document for committee to review, then work with IT before next meeting to look at rollout.
