Committee for Accreditation
Sylvia wondered if LISA would approve a link on our website for an accreditation site.
LISA approved.
Students will be asked to sit on various accreditation committees.
Sylvia asked if LISA would help line up students
LISA agreed.
Mentoring Issues
Tracie agreed to check the LISA web site to see what if any description is posted. She will revise it as needed/or draft a version to LISA to look over
At the February 10th meeting, Jorge will announce that we need a student to be the mentor liaison. It is a minimal time commitment. The person will connect those who ask to a professional mentor.
LISA Website
Sylvia has received pressure from those above about improving the LISA website. She had many points, and Dennis read responses from Theresa Schaefer. The site needs to be updated-even just the last revised date-so it stays current
Tracie will work with Dennis to check the accuracy of the scholarships listed.
Sylvia will email internship possibilities to Dennis to be posted on Blackboard.
Minutes were approved from the last meeting.
Newsletter
Tracie will look into starting a newsletter.
Joni suggested contacting Beth Wrenn-Estes.
