Next Generation Meetings Announced

FROM THE DESK OF: Will Andresen - Friday, January 30, 2009 - I’m happy to report that all four “Next Generation” work-groups are meeting and moving forward.

One of the challenges we face is communicating the various meeting dates, activities and projects of the four groups. There’s quite a bit of over-lap in purpose between these groups, so staying on top of the various activities will be important and helpful. We’re thinking about creating a web-site to communicate these things, but haven’t created one yet. In the meantime, I’m going to post meeting dates for the four work-groups on my office web-site. I’ll also post other “Next Generation” documents, survey results, links, etc. http://www.uwex.edu/ces/cty/iron/cnred/index.html

Here’s three upcoming meetings:

Monday, February 2, 2009 - 12:00 NOON Next Generation “Strengthening Our Niche” Workgroup meeting - Board Room, Iron County Courthouse, Hurley, WI

Wednesday, February 25, 2009 - 6:00 PM Next Generation “Promoting Our Strengths” Workgroup meeting - Room B-22, Jacob Solin Business Center, Gogebic Community College, Ironwood, MI

Thursday, February 26, 2009 - 5:00 PM Next Generation “Retaining Our Students” Workgroup meeting – Board Room, Iron County Court House, Hurley, WI

Everybody is welcome and encouraged to attend all meetings. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thanks!
