Next week, Present the first draft of ISER from the writing leads (Moaty Fayek, Mary Pape and Eric Mendoza). The first deadline is December 2, 2022.

Instructional Equipment & Lottery Dollars: IPBT mutually agreed that deans should begin working with their divisions/departments to update their Instructional Equipment and Lottery request lists.

Position Justifications: IPBT supported the idea of asking deans to begin conversations with their divisions about positions needed in their areas along with information to support their request for positions. This information will be passed on to PAC.

Group Work/Review of Program Reviews: The groups were established and confirmed. There was a request to identify and include area experts with each work group. Christina indicated she would work on this with the deans. The group work will start next week.
