For Discussion:

Selection of the Welsh Award committee rep

            Every other year, the College awards a staff member with the Suzanne P. Welsh Award for outstanding contributions to the success of the College. The selection committee for this award includes one SAC representative and one AAC representative. Our first meeting will be in December, so I'm hoping that we can select representatives at your November meetings if possible.
