MEETING PROCEEDINGS

I. Guest Speaker

Christine Williamson, Manager-Customer Service Center, Office of the CIO (OCIO) – Information Services – Email update migration project started in late April. The process is going slower then expected due to the migration tool. There will be a time quota for “Inbox” and “Sent” items (180 days). Emails can be moved from “Inbox” into a subfolder. Subfolders are controlled by space not time. They are testing a migration tool for the Mulberry address book to make sure nothing is lost in transition to Exchange. For more information go to www.musc.edu/infoservices/exchange or email exchproj@musc.edu. Information Services hopes to give notice at least two weeks prior to migration. They will monitor for out of office messages. This will, hopefully, allow individuals to clean-out emails. Blackberries, Trios, and Palms will work directly with the server, no linking needed.

II. Committee Report

Communication and Education Committee – Nancy Duffy reported on previous Town Hall meeting. There was a good turn out. C3 would like time at the next Town Hall to give an update on where they are (15-20 minutes). The preliminary topic for the next Town Hall meeting is “Course Packs” by T. Bacon and Creating Collaborative Care.

Governance - Walter Limehouse reported that the Senators will receive a status report on where they fit into the roll-over process. Individuals who are at the end of his/her term will be asked if they would like to come off Senate or stay on. There will be a list of those who would like to run again. Walter Limehouse encouraged Senators to solicit people to fill empty spots. The official list should be done by mid-August. The election will be held at September’s meeting. Dr. Greenberg will be at October’s meeting to welcome the new Faculty Senate members.

II. Updates

President's Council - Rick Albenesius reported that the Ethical Conduct is getting closer to being finalized. The most recent draft was e-mailed to all senators. If anyone would like to read it, make suggestions, or comment on it please email Rick, albenesi@musc.edu.

III. New Business

Dr. Dorothea Jenkins – Will be resigning from her position on the Faculty Senate. She has been asked to Co-Chair IRB. We wish her the best.
