Summer reading potluck


Have you blasted though all the John Grisham books you set aside for vacation reading and are now wondering how you're going to spend all your free time?

Have you been feeling lonely,  missing your colleagues since the end of spring semester?

Do you feel the need to eat around 6:00 pm every evening?

Well, mark your calendars, because THIS is the event for you!

All member lunch and spring meeting

The Women's Faculty Caucus will hold its spring luncheon and all-member meeting on Friday, March 9, from noon - 1 in SUB Ballroom B. Membership in the WFC is open to all women faculty on campus, including non-tenure track, tenure track, and research faculty.

In addition to taking this opportunity to interact on a professional and personal level, at this meeting we will divide into interest groups to generate ideas about issues that are relevant to our organization in the coming year. These issues include

  • Codifying our membership  by establishing by-laws and membership criteria
  • Convening a family-friendly working group to address issues that affect female faculty members
  • Identifying professional development opportunities that will benefit our members.
We'll provide lunch - the menu will include a choice of a deli sandwich or soup (the soup is vegetarian and gluten free), tossed salad, iced tea, and an assortment of cookies. If you can, let us know you are coming by emailing an RSVP to Gale (gough@montana.edu). But if you get inspired at the last minute, please join us anyway and we'll find a plate for you!
