New Vice Chair for 2020-2021

Brittany Newberry (Unlicensed)

Vice chair duties include providing support for Council activities, liaising with and attending meetings of designated sub-teams, and acting as the Chair in meetings of the full Council in the absence of the Chair. The Vice chair is the designated successor the next time the Chair position is open, whether because the Chair’s term on the Council has expired, the Chair has resigned from the Council, or the Chair has decided to remain on the Council but resign from the Chair position. If a Vice Chair resigns or leaves the Council before the Chair position becomes available, the Chair will name a new Vice Chair.

Contact Brittany Newberry at bnewberry@auctr.edu if you are interested in volunteering for the position

Additional discussion topics?

1. Retrospectives - please work with your subteam to publish a retrospective in your wiki space before the end of terms on July 1.
