Hi Projects class,
See at 2pm on Monday 4/3!
- 5 minutes*
We'll get started on the 5-minute project presentations from everybody. If you're feeling stuck or your project feels outdated, speak to what you'd like to be doing now and going forward =E2=80=94 what feels actionabl= e or meaningful now? Also maybe name a project or two that feels adjacent to your work.
- Mission*
We'll also spend ~an hour of class continuing our ongoing discussion around the mission. The plan is to devote a little bit of class time each week to this through the end of the semester, as a shared project for grounding and processing.
For more on the history and purpose of the mission, check out this
amazing PDF prepared by librarian Julie Castelluzzo: "Mission Vision
1988 - 2015[1]" with ~60 pages of research. Julie is currently serving
on the Mission and Goals subcommittee of the Middle States accreditation
process[2].
It's also worth briefly perusing CUAA's index of candidate
bio/statements[3] to get a sense of who's running for Alumni Association
Council and Alumni Trustee positions. Each candidate had to write a kind
of personal mission statement about what Cooper means to them and how
they see themselves contributing.
