Dear Faculty Members, I hope you have had a wonderful and productive summer vacation. The spring 2016 term is here, and you are no doubt finalizing your syllabi for distribution to students. Below please find some useful information regarding language that can be included in the Attendance, Assessment, Plagiarism, and Accommodations sections of your syllabi. Feel free to adjust the suggested text to fit your personal style, but the Undergraduate Division strongly recommends you integrate this information in some form in your course syllabi. Note that the first part of the policy statement in italics is for faculty consideration only, and then the second part in regular type is for inclusion in syllabi directly. This information can also be located on the faculty dashboard: http://www.saic.edu/faculty/. You may also wish to incorporate the Writing Center schedule if you are teaching a class that requires students to compose essays or papers. For the first time, we are including a sample “technology usage” policy for the classroom that you may wish to adapt to suit your pedagogic needs. Finally, my office is organizing a full day symposium for Friday March 18th titled Pioneers on the Prairie: Celebrating Women in New Media Arts as part of our 150th celebration in the Conversations on Art and Science Lecture Series. Please write if you would like further information. We are hoping to attract a broad and diverse audience for this event. Event details are included in the “cut and paste” portion of this email. Should you have any questions, please contact my assistant Nia Easley at neasley@saic.edu. Have a great start to the semester! Warm regards, Tiffany Holmes PhD, Dean of Undergraduate Studies FOR FACULTY CONSIDERATION ONLY: ASSESSMENT AND EVALUATION OF STUDENT LEARNING: INDIVIDUAL EVALUATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF GRADE: Clearly indicate your expectations of the student to successfully complete the course and achieve a grade of CREDIT. In writing, please explain each requirement and method of evaluation. Please indicate whether you will convey individual grades of credit or no credit for specific assignments. Students need to understand what is expected of them to receive a grade of CREDIT in your course. LEARNING GOALS: Include course objectives or learning goals as part of your term syllabus. Consider what you want the student to learn in the class and what evidence you plan to evaluate to determine whether the student achieved your course goals. The following may weigh into your criteria: class preparation and attendance, class participation, and/or successful completion of all assignments. If you think a student’s progress is faltering due to attendance, performance, or other reasons please utilize the course progress reports detailed below. COURSE PROGRESS REPORTS (CPRs): CPRs allow instructors to alert both a student and the Office of Student Affairs/Academic Advising that their progress in the course may be compromised due to attendance, performance, or other reasons. Instructors should submit CPRs online using SAIC Self-Service accessed through the Faculty Dashboard under QUICKLINKS. Click here for instructions on how to use CPRs (http://www.saic.edu/lifeatsaic/academicadvising/formsandguides/classprogressreports/). These instructions can also be found on the saic.edu site by going to the Faculty Dashboard, under Resources, click Academic Advising" and from there navigate to Resources for Faculty. Faculty may submit a CPR at any time in a semester and as often as necessary. CPRs are an important tool for academic advisors, who review them weekly, to identify and provide outreach and advising to students who are demonstrating unsatisfactory academic progress or other concerning behavior. If you have any questions about CPRs you can contact Student Affairs Coordinator Josh Becker jbecker4@artic.edu. If there is any student about whom you are particularly worried, and especially in the case of an emergency, please contact Office of Student Affairs/Academic Advising directly at 312.629.6800 or Campus Security at 312.899.5093. ATTENDANCE FIRST DAY OF CLASS: If a student does not attend your class on the first day please send a Course Progress Report (CPR). The Dean’s Office is interested in finding out the reasons why student might choose not to attend class on the first day when enrollments are so high and waitlists tend to be lengthy. COURSE ATTENDANCE POLICY: Your requirements for student attendance should be clearly stated on your syllabus and presented at the beginning of each semester. The Undergraduate Division strongly recommends that faculty members keep accurate attendance records and call for attendance at all classes. Ultimately, it is at the faculty member’s discretion whether to adhere to or modify the institutional recommendations that follow below. However, in all cases, the attendance policy should be clearly stated on the syllabus for each course. Our Learning Management System, Canvas, has a great tool to track and record attendance at each class meeting. ACCOMMODATIONS FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES: On the first day of class, invite students who may have statements from the Disability and Learning Resource Center (DLRC) to submit them to you directly for evaluation and/or private discussion with the student. All faculty members are required to keep a written record of the letter as well as a written document indicating how accommodations were provided. Contact the DLRC directly (dlrc@saic.edu) AT 312.499.427) for any questions related to individual accommodation letters and/or requests. MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE DLRC Providing accommodations to students with disabilities is a shared responsibility with each member of the SAIC community playing a role. The following delineates some basic responsibilities for faculty and DLRC staff. Faculty Role In order to best support students with disabilities, we encourage faculty to: • Notify all students that accommodations may be available to them and offer students DLRC contact information and be sure to include the DLRC’s recommended Syllabus Statement in all course syllabi. Accommodations for Students with Disabilities: SAIC is committed to full compliance with all laws regarding equal opportunities for students with disabilities. Students with known or suspected disabilities, such as a Reading/Writing Disorder, ADD/ADHD, and/or a mental health condition who think they would benefit from assistance or accommodations should first contact the Disability and Learning Resource Center (DLRC) to schedule an appointment. DLRC staff will review your disability documentation and work with you to determine reasonable accommodations. They will then provide you with a letter outlining the approved accommodations for you to deliver to your instructors. This letter must be presented before any accommodations will be implemented. You should contact the DLRC as early in the semester as possible. The DLRC is located within the Wellness Center on the 13th floor of 116 S Michigan Ave. and can be reached via phone at 312.499.4278 or email at dlrc@saic.edu. Provide and/or allow approved accommodations outlined in the letter from DLRC; if accommodations conflict with essential course requirements, or if there are questions or concerns about approved accommodations, faculty should notify the DLRC immediately to discuss reasonable alternatives. Further, if the student fails to give their instructors a copy of their accommodation letter, instructors are not obligated to provide accommodations and should refer the student to the DLRC. Be sure to remember to: • Document the date of receipt for all accommodation letters as soon as they are received. • When allowing flexibility with deadlines and/or attendance, document in writing specific alternative deadlines and/or attendance allowances. • Accommodations are never retroactive. • Remember that it is always the student’s choice whether to disclose his or her specific disability or diagnosis to instructors. • Refer to DLRC any student who reports a disability or requests an accommodation or modificationâ€"include this information on your syllabus. *See http://www.saic.edu/lifeatsaic/wellnesscenter/disabilityandlearningresourcecenter/resource sforfacult for more information. DLRC Role The DLRC is committed to: • Providing disability accommodations, guidance, and academic support to individual students with disabilities in keeping with all course requirements and program standards. • Determining eligibility for reasonable accommodations by conducting a thorough review of the information provided by students and the documentation received from treatment providers. • Providing students/faculty with a letter that lists and describes the approved accommodations. • Collaborating with faculty and staff on disability concerns, especially as they relate to academic performance and fulfilling requirements. • Offering relevant programming to the entire SAIC community on topics relating to learning, disability, and art. • Offering guidance and recommendations on the most current and effective adaptive technology resources. OTHER RECOMMENDED SYLLABI INCLUSIONS: FACULTY PLEASE CUT AND PASTE THE ITEMS BELOW INTO YOUR SYLLABI Student Attendance SAIC policy states that students are expected to attend all classes regularly and on time. Students should miss class only with reasonable cause. If a student needs to miss class with reasonable cause, it is the student’s responsibility to contact the instructor to receive instruction for how to make up for the missed class. It is the instructor’s responsibility to give this information to the student as his/her/their schedule permits. Missing class for other than a reasonable cause may jeopardize the student’s academic standing in the class. SAIC’s recommended institutional policy is as follows: If a student misses MORE than three classes, whether or not for a reasonable cause, the student will fail the class, if the student does not withdraw from the class prior to the deadline for withdrawal with a grade of "W." Deadline for withdrawal: Wednesday, March 25, 2015 (spring semester). Reasonable cause to miss a class might include: • Illness or hospitalization (the student should contact Health Services, who will relay information to the faculty in whose class the student is enrolled) • Observation of a religious holiday • Family illness or death Academic Misconduct From the SAIC Student Handbook: Academic misconduct includes both plagiarism and cheating, and may consist of: the submission of the work of another as one’s own; unauthorized assistance on a test or assignment; submission of the same work for more than one class without the knowledge and consent of all instructors; or the failure to properly cite texts or ideas from other sources. Academic integrity is expected in all coursework, including online learning. It is assumed that the person receiving the credit for the course is the person completing the work. SAIC has processes in place that protect student privacy and uses LDAP authentication to verify student identity. Specific procedures for faculty to follow in the case of academic misconduct are detailed in the Student Handbook. Additional resources for students: • Read “Plagiarism: How to Recognize It and Avoid It: a short guide prepared by the Faculty Senate Student Life Subcommitee in 2004. • Read the Flaxman Library’s quick guide titled “AVOID PLAGIARISM.” Accommodations Statement Accommodations for Students with Disabilities: SAIC is committed to full compliance with all laws regarding equal opportunities for students with disabilities. Students with known or suspected disabilities, such as a Reading/Writing Disorder, ADD/ADHD, and/or a mental health condition who think they would benefit from assistance or accommodations should first contact the Disability and Learning Resource Center (DLRC) to schedule an appointment. DLRC staff will review your disability documentation and work with you to determine reasonable accommodations. They will then provide you with a letter outlining the approved accommodations for you to deliver to your instructors. This letter must be presented before any accommodations will be implemented.

We are very happy to inform you that we have extended our finder functionality today! Based on your user feedback and in an effort to maximize the user friendliness, xChange now bases search results in the Finder on available equipment and each carrier’s redelivery schedules. When searching for a one-way, only those partners with acceptance in the selected drop-off locations are returned. After selecting the pick-up location, you can provide one or several drop-off places. Assessing all potential combinations, xChange only returns those partners with matching pick-up and drop-off locations. As of today, you can also offer equipment from multiple pick-up locations maximizing your opportunities to reposition equipment into your largest deficits. A field for drop-off or pick-up charges and credits has been added to the request form. We also decreased the response times of the tool through a leaner systems architecture. As before, the click on any of the suggested partners will highlight additional drop-off locations to facilitate your equipment planning and reveal additional potential. Boxes can be requested or offered through a click on the paper plane symbol. We are looking forward to hear your feedback! The team is also very happy to announce, that as of this week, more than 20 carriers and leasing companies are on the platform. And we are in the process of adding several more †" making xChange a true marketplaces! In our next release on February 24 we will enhance the search mechanism to also include nearby locations and feature regionally differentiated user rights â€" to manage multiple users within one company.

All the best, Jenny Dear Shinsky Orphanage Supporters: I hope you are doing well. I am sending this email to inform you that the 2018 Shinsky Orphanage Golf outing is not going to take place this year. This was certainly a difficult decision, however, we recognize that our schedules and demands limit our ability to contribute the necessary time to the golf outing. As of January 1, 2018, I am serving as the Chairperson of Board for NPH (Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos) USA, which requires a significant amount of my time. This responsibility includes leading our board and Regional Director’s efforts to raise monies for all of our programs in nine countries throughout Latin America. In addition, I will continue to lead the fundraising efforts for Ciudad de los Niños Shinsky Orphanage and fulfill my work responsibilities at Grand Valley State University. I have cherished our time together and the support for a cause that has had so much positive impact on the lives of our children. This has truly been one of those “exceptional opportunities” that not only touched the hearts of the children we are serving, but the hearts of each-and-every one of us. I will make every effort possible to keep you informed of the progress made at the orphanage. Please know that you will always be in the hearts and souls of our children, Cindy and me. Thank you for all of your support. With Deep Appreciation, John & Cindy Shinsky It is all for our children and their future! (From beginning to graduation.)

Thanks for all you do to help students succeed! Terry Hogan Vice President for Student Affairs Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs 118 Gilchrist University of Northern Iowa Cedar Falls, Iowa 50614-0010 http://www.uni.edu/studentaffairs Dear Fellow students: I hope you are all doing well as this semester comes to a close. I wanted to write a letter to the Gulf Park student body to inform you about a new opportunity going on in Mississippi’s Institutions of Higher Learning (IHL), and how this opportunity may impact student life at Southern Miss. Over the past two years, the Student Government Associations at Mississippi State, Mississippi University for Women, Mississippi Valley State and the University of Mississippi made proposals to the IHL governing board for student facilities, services and activities fees of $55 dollars a semester, and the board approved those student fees for implementation in the 2015-2016 academic year. The fees, which are to be added to tuition during the next school year, will be solely dedicated to improving student facilities, services, and activities. Southern Miss now has the opportunity to do the same. I believe that this is a fantastic opportunity to keep our university on top as these funds will be able to make major improvements for student life on our campus. Support from the USM students for this fee would result in important improvements such as more equipment and classes at our new fitness facility, expanded services for the new health facility, more student activity programming, and funds set aside for student organization programming. Please join your SGA leaders and university administrators at the town hall financial information session on Monday, April 13th at 12:15 pm in the Hardy Hall University Club. Come and learn about the possibilities of this fee, let your voice be heard, and please be reminded that all funds collected on the Gulf Park campus will remain on the Gulf Park campus to support student life. SMTTT! Hayley Whitehead President Dear (Friend, Family, Co-worker, Neighbor), I hope this letter finds you well. I would love to share with you what God is doing in my life. Recently, I’ve committed to go on a mission trip in 2017 with the Summit Church in Indiana, Pennsylvania. I am so excited about this opportunity! This is a step of faith for me, but I truly believe and trust that God will use me while I’m on this trip. The vision of the Summit Church is to see every life made different by the power of Jesus Christ. We want to see every person’s life made different no matter who they are - whether they walk through our church doors, our home, or we come into contact with them in our community & around the world. We value missions at the Summit. We know that God has called us to be a sending out church in our community, in our nation, and in our world. I’m so honored that I’ll get to be a part of that mission. Our mission trips are coordinated with ministry organizations we support because we have a relationship with them. We trust them & they’re the experts in the communities where we’ll be serving. As a church, we have five trips planned for the year of 2017. Each trip differs in its location, culture, & ministry opportunities. The trips, dates, partnering organizations, and the organizations’ websites are listed below. Trip Date Ministry Organization Ministry Webpage Los Angeles May 22nd -27th LA Dream Center dreamcenter.org New York City July 12th -17th New York Dream Center dreamcenter.nyc Panama August 19th -25th Water Saves watersaves.org Ireland September 15th -23rd Blake & Katy Edgmon & Hope Centre blakeandkaty.com hopecentre.ie Haiti October 14th-21st Convoy of Hope convoyofhope.org I ask, first and foremost, if you would commit to praying for me. We want to bathe our trips in prayer so God may equip His people to do the work of the ministry & build the body of Christ (Eph. 4:12). Secondly, this trip will be individually funded. If you feel God is leading you to be a financial partner in supporting me to go on this trip, you can certainly do so. I would greatly appreciate your generosity. Know that your contribution will serve to see every life made different. If you would like to give, you can do so by mailing a check to the Summit Church (2707 West Pike Road, Indiana, PA 15701). Please write “(my name)/World Reach trip” on the memo line. You can also make online contributions on my personal page for the trip. The link for that is (PERSONAL LINK HERE). Thank you so much for taking the time to consider this. I greatly appreciate it. (Your Signature) (Your Printed Name) Dear string student, Hope your summer is going well! As was done the last four years, the audition process is based on alteration in the size of the symphony orchestra (smaller violin section), our String Chamber Orchestra, and fairness to all regardless of major or classification. The auditions will be held on Thursday, August 23, starting at 3:00 p.m. in McAfee Concert Hall. There will be a sign-up sheet in the hall behind the stage (first-come, first-served) for the order of auditions. Please be present during the audition times for your instrument. The schedule will be: 3:00-6:00 Violin 6:00-7:00 Viola 7:00-7:45 Cello 7:45-8:30 Bass There are 3 excerpts for each instrument. All excerpts are from Respighi’s The Pines of Rome and Saint-Saens’ Cello Concerto #1. Be prepared to play all excerpts (bracketed sections only) as time permits. You will be asked “Please play #1”, etc. Please keep BOTH slots open for Chamber and Symphony Orchestras. You will be placed accordingly based on audition. If you would rather not audition but want to play in an ensemble, I will be happy to have you play in String Chamber Orchestra without an audition. Just attend the first day of Chamber Orchestra (Wed., Aug. 22, 1:00, BH 303) and let me hear you play something (anything!) for section/seat placement in BUSCO. If your credit limit (16 s.h.) is full, you do not have to enroll in BUSO or BUSCO but it would be preferable if you can. MUN 4930.01 â€" Symphony Orchestra (meets TR 3-4:50 pm in McAfee Concert Hall) MUN 4740.01 â€" String Chamber Orchestra (MWF 1:00-1:50 pm in BHBC 303) MFI 3120.01 â€" String Quartets (Arranged) Thanks and see you in the fall! Dr. Gregg I would like to welcome you on behalf of Ghent University to the European Universities Association’s country workshop. The initiative for this Workshop on Full Costing in the Belgian context was taken by our university, and thanks to the EUA who approved our proposal and FNRS in who we found a Walloon partner, we were able to present you this Workshop in a period in which full costing still is in a growth process. Discussions today can help us all to see more clearly on the matter and to take into consideration all ideas that will come up today, in order to take the right decisions when implementing full costing. In this Workshop all aspects of Full Costing will be discussed profoundly with all directly and indirectly involved parties. In order to be able to have an in-depth discussion on Full Costing national and international experts were invited as well as the management of Belgian universities and their counterparts in projectfinancing, meaning responsible public authorities and representatives of funding bodies. The initial driver for Full Costing for the Belgian universities was the 7th EU Framework program. In this framework the end of the additional cost model was announced, be it with a transitional period. The years 2012-2013 became a marker in the agenda’s of the Financial Departments of the universities, as an end date for realisation of a Full Cost model able to meet the demands of the next EU Framework program. What we now see is that some other drivers towards implementing Full Costing surface: - First of all budgetary restrictions force universities to make choices. The availability of objective and complete cost-data can help the management to make an expertly decision, considering both the scientific interest and the financial cost of the project. - Secondly besides the EU also other instances are evolving towards the demand of a kind of full costing declaration. Full Costing is without any discussion not the only solution for cost declarations or the only decision making tool, but it surely is one of the tools in the modernisation of our university management we have to take into consideration. I hope that the discussions of today can go beyond the full costing in a strict sense and that besides the benefits, the disadvantages and the threats of a full costing model, an open debate on research funding is possible between universities and governments. Until now we mainly see a one way request towards the local governments for an increase of the fixed overhead for research programs. Maybe this event can be a starting point to initiate, on a regular basis, formal as well as informal contacts on research funding between universities and governments. These contacts could and should result in a better understanding of both points of view and may result in some specific agreements. We both have the same goal: allowing (fundamental) research to take place in the best circumstances; at the highest possible level and at a correct price. It must thus be possible to rethink some rusty thoughts and legislations and to start up working groups where both universities and governments are represented. In these groups, the considerations of all parties can be tabled and discussed without restrictions. I think that a permanent consultation between universities and funding parties could strongly help to realize a more simple and transparent cost declaration model. I do want to stress on the fact that this request towards more communication and new cost declaration rules is not just a demand for more money. It is a request for objectivity and transparency in research funding. We all can and will benefit from it. The sustainability of research at the universities may never be questioned. When we do not start to think now about how research and the funding of it will be organized in the near future we run a risk that universities can no longer guarantee the sustainability of all research fields. When we look at today’s program I’m convinced that a wide scale of interesting topics will come up and that most of the discussions will not stop at the end of Workshop. It would be unfortunate if after this Workshop everything would pass to the order of the day. I hope that this day will turn out to be an important step in the process to a modern, flexible and transparent cost-management for the Belgian universities. I wish you all an interesting and informative day with lots of networking. I thank you.

I'm sure it will be a wonderful event and worthy of Bill's remarkable commitment to CSF over the decades. With best regards, David Sahn Thank you for this information. Please keep my name on the list so I can be advised of the place and time. Best regards....Gayl Ness Dear Ms Arlinghaus, Many thanks for your message below. Unfortunately I'm not able to attend the coming CSF meeting, October 11. Best wishes to you all. Dr G. Acciarri. Unfortunately I will still be in Europe. Doug Daniels Sandra, Thanks for the invitation and followup. It looks pretty difficult to get to AA for a weekend from E cuador, even though I'd love to. If something drops out of the sky, I'll be there but most likely, no. Thanks. David Nelson Dear Sandra, We will not be attending the C.S.F. October meeting. Thanks for taking time out of your schedule on Friday Sept 5th - Jayme and I very much enjoyed meeting and talking with you. Very best wishes to you and your colleagues at C.S.F.! Bob Holmberg Hi Sandy. I would like to come to the CSF gathering. Sounds wonderful. I will be coming alone, and do not want to give a formal presentation. Thanks for the invitation and your efforts. I'm looking forward to seeing you again. Cathy Sandy - Sorry I could not get onto the web site - however I plan to attend all 3 parts of the day and Ted will come to the dinner in the evening. I would like time to say a few words about the old days at CSF and to read a letter about Bill that I wrote to his daughter after he died. My whole presentation will take about 5 minutes. Again, let me know if there is anything I can do and I look forward to seeing you very soon. Naomi PS I discussed an old employee of CSF named Fe SUsan Go with John N. I believe she is working at the Univ of MI Graduate Library - if so she should be easy to find. Did you fi nd her??? Hi Sandy, thank you for forwarding this email to my attention. I don't think I received a copy. And, of course, I am very sorry to hear about Bill's death. The course I took with you both was one of my favorites and I am sure he will be missed. Unfortunately, I will not be in Ann Arbor on the 11th. In fact I am going to be there from Oct 24th to 26th for my husband's law school reunion. I am sorry my dates won't coincide with this event. We are now living in NY. Mike got a ten ure track teaching job at Brooklyn Law School and I am trying to find interesting employment in the area. I hope you are doing well. Send my regards to your husband. Ros S - Thanks for the invite, but I won't be able to make it. Please pass on my hello to everyone and my good memories of Bill, who was a committee member for my dissertation. - Marc Yes I will be there (only me). I probably will want to discuss the future of a project that Bill and I had wanted to pursue but am not planning on a formal presentation. A. WinklerPrins Sandy, I have been holding out trying to figure out if there was a way for me to come to Ann Arbor the weekend of 11 October, but unfortunately I am going to have to give it a miss. I am really quite sorry as I would have very much appreciated the opportunity to see old friends and colleagues, as well as engage in discussions regarding the future of CSF. Roy and Frank have been doing a good job keeping me informed about the status of affairs at CSF and I trust that they are in a position to articulate some of my ideas and thoughts regarding some of the potential directions and opportunities for an organization like CSF. Thanks and warmest regards, Jonathan Dear Sandy, I apologize for not being able to jo in the meeting this time. I will try my best on my project and dissertation this Fall and hope to show you the best result. I am quite willing to do anything for future CSF plans.
