b. Amy’s suggestion to form subcommittees to:
i. prepare a boiled-down version of literature review that we can present in public to the wider university
ii. discussion of public forum date.
iii. prepare a presentation of faculty survey (and other survey?) results
iv. put in writing the few clear senses of direction we’ve been getting from our survey results, research, and conversations—structured in a way that invites specific points of discussion, not a full-fledged proposal to put before the campus.
c. Where to go from here?
