Newsletter sets holiday publication schedule
The CU Faculty and Staff Newsletter will not publish on Nov. 25, Dec. 23 and Dec. 30.

Submissions for the Dec. 2 issue must be received by Tuesday, Nov. 24. Submissions for the Jan. 6 issue must be received by Tuesday, Dec. 22.

The Newsletter's 2010 publication schedule will be announced in January. Take our survey and help shape the newsletter

When I introduced myself in this spot several weeks ago, I noted that the University of Colorado Faculty and Staff Newsletter is a work in progress. It still is. And now I'm asking for your help in spurring some progress.

Recently, we launched a reader survey. It's a quick, easy online questionnaire that can be completed in less than five minutes. Most of the questions are multiple choice, but you also have the opportunity to write specific comments and suggestions. The results will go a long way in helping to improve the Newsletter.

Our purpose as a news source is to provide information that's needed and wanted by employees throughout the university system. The tricky part is determining what that mix of information should look like. You, the reader, can help us sort that out.

So, please, take a few minutes and complete the survey. Click here to get started. You'll be reading about the results in the weeks ahead.

Please don't forget that you're always invited to offer suggestions, requests, comments and criticism at any time — whether we're conducting a survey or not. For any and all news items that you'd like to see shared with the university community, please submit them to Jay.Dedrick@cu.edu. To offer feedback, send it to newsletter@cu.edu.
