Hi Katina and Lin Lin,

Congratulations! We are the Educational Technology Search Committee. I'll be serving as chair.

Our first task will be to attend a Search Committee training which will include how to use the online employment system and the rules and regs of conducting a search. Lori will help us schedule a meeting time that works for Cindy, us, and Wendy McAllister of Human Resources.

Secondly, we will need to develop a rubric sheet which contains all the required and preferred qualifications. We will use this to review the applications.

We won't be able to complete the reviews until at least Dec. 1st, as that is the date in the ad. However, as the applications come in we can complete the rubric for each application. These reviews will be independent.

We will also need to develop phone interview questions and on campus interview questions and have them approved.

After Dec. 1st we will meet to narrow down the pool and decide on candidates to phone interview, and from there, narrow the list for on campus interviews (usually 2 individuals), conduct reference checks, and then make recommendations on the candidates. At each level of the process we will need approvals from Cindy, the Dean and Human Resources.

Hopefully our timeline will be:

Dec. 2 meet to decide on candidates to phone interview. Phone candidates prior to the end of the semester. Make reference checks and invitations during break and plan for on campus interviews during late January, or early February.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!

Beth

While we are born with curiosity and wonder

and our early years full of the adventure they bring,

I know such inherent joys are often lost.

I also know that , being deep within us,

their latent glow can be fanned to flame again

by awareness and an open mind,
