Executive Board Meetings Minutes
UPSA Joint Board Meeting
with Ingoing/Outgoing Board Members
Board members present
were: Thelma Helyar, Susan Sloop, Eric Jeppesen, David Burge, Joe
Potts, CJ Brune, Sandra Wick, Mark Nesbitt-Daly, Sally Hayden Thelma
Simons, Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle and Pat Miller and Ola Faucher.
Sally Hayden gave the
treasurer's report. UPSA had an ending balance of $340.00. UPSA
spent $1,640.00 in stipends for conferences using the professional
development funds available. Other areas of spending included newsletters,
flyers and bookmarks. Sally anticipates the same budget to be allocated
as this year.
We discussed potential
speakers for the fall general meeting and Janet Marquia, the new
public relations/lobbyist for the University was suggested. There
was an overwhelming positive response to this suggestion. T
he incoming public relations
representative suggested we update the website and use the list
serve more often, possibly even for the distribution of the newsletter
and the
Board Meeting minutes.
CJ Brune reminded us
that the Board needed to appoint an UPSA representative to the Classified
monthly meetings, which meet the 2nd Wednesday of each month from
10:30 - 12 noon. Kathryn Tuttle offered to alternate with someone
else and was planning to attend the June meeting.
Ola Faucher gave the
HR report and wanted to know if UPSA would decide to include post
docs in the UPSA representation. Currently without post docs UPSA
membership is approximately 500. This was for the new board to decide.
Ola was going to find out how many UPSA staff are located at the
other Regents Institutions so KU UPSA member designees could begin
to meet annually with peer groups at Wichita State and other Board
of Regents Institutions.
It was also suggested
that UPSA distribute the UPSA brochure to legislators this next
year.
Next meeting will be
July 17th in the Kansas Room.
