Campus Climate Surveys:
Jo Ann went over the Campus Climate survey from the CALS CASI. It focused mainly on job satisfaction -- http://www.cals.wisc.edu/casi/ Click on "2000 Climate Survey Results".

The School of Education CASI is also preparing to do a survey of its members and is planning to focus more on equity and diversity issues.

After reviewing the CALS survey, the CEBC committee made a motion to talk to ASEC about having a broadly focused campus wide survey initiated. The campus wide survey would be reviewed by a professional surveyor to make sure the questions are correctly phrased to extract useful information. The Survey results would then be shared with the standing committees, ASEC and the Assembly to look for issues that need to be addressed. ASEC could use the CALS survey as a base and maybe include information from the School of Education's CASI.

New Business:

Brown Bag topics were discussed:

If I knew then what I know now
Sponsor or co-sponsor in October at health fair.

Portfolio building
What to put together, things to think about for internal job promotion.

Job promotion
Based on flyer from CEBC last January.

Disability benefits
What are they, who can get them, and why do we need them.

Life Insurance options
What are they and why would I want this one or that one.

Ronnie is going to contact Kathleen O'Rourke about current brown bags schedules. At our August meeting we will decide which brown bags are appropriate and then plan on when to have them.

Adjournment

Next CEBC meeting is August 1st in the Natatorium at 12 noon.

Respectfully submitted,

H. Adam Steinberg
