Items/Issues To Be Resolved – What plans/projects
remain which will be carried over or postponed until next year? Have there been
any substantial changes in plans requiring a reconsideration or cancellation of projects? Information regarding such will be helpful for
future chairs and planners.
b) Put
forth a survey to the membership to get an idea of how NMRT members define
themselves in terms of diversity. This
has not taken off yet. I'm unsure if we
will be able to complete it by the end of this term. It may need to be deferred until next
year.

a.
Membership Promotion, Diversity, and
Recruitment--do not have a listing at this time. Now that the committees have
existed for almost a full year, we need to remedy that! Feel free to use
relevant content from the Membership Promotion and Relations and Diversity
Committee pages. Brooke Lippy (kbwookie@hotmail.com) is the Handbook
Committee chair. Please contact her with your changes and with any questions
about the Handbook. This is an important document, and it helps to keep it up
to date. (Quoted from a note that
Nanette sent to the Chairs).
e) Brochures
or any other marketing materials for NMRT need to be developed.
f)
Web page should be updated.
Comments:
This was the first year for the joined committee
that is the Membership promotion, diversity and Recruitment Committee.
Having
served as the chair of this committee for the last year I would strongly
suggest that the committee have a co-chair in the future. My previous experience had been with the
Diversity Committee. Membership
Promotion and Recruitment were not my strong suit. It would have been nice to have another
person to take the lead on these issues.
In
my opinion, there needs to be a discussion about the guidelines of this
committee as well as goals.
