Vice Chair Vacant

 

Unity Analytics for Expack

General consensus:

Rather than having people fill it out everyday for a week (may not get much participation) ask that they keep track of daily shipments on their own for a week (post it on their desk, teams message with their student assistants, ect.) and fill out the form once, have each day listed so they can enter bag count.

 

Want to mention the importance of a potential new courier contract and how it’s beneficial to them.

 

Want to add something about satellite campuses (should that count be included on the main campus count or have them enter on their own?)

 

Keeping track of unity bags (one week’s worth).  

 Action items

For the next meeting, Priscilla will assess Wiki to see what needs to be updated/archived.
