Members Meeting. |
Dear Trustees, Members Reps and Affiliates and their substitutes,
and the URC,
Welcome to the website for the 2005 Annual Members’ Meeting.
We’re looking forward to what promises to be a full, interesting,
and enjoyable three days of activities.
In addition to the business that you regularly conduct, this year’s
meeting will provide an opportunity for you to “kick the
tires” at UCAR, NCAR and UOP. We’ve planned for tours
on the morning before the meeting begins, and an Open House Poster
Session covering many NCAR and UOP programs and UCAR services as
part of the Members Meeting Forum. The emphasis for the posters
will be on increased collaborations to address national needs,
with the intention of creating a dialogue with you, the meeting
participants, to address the following:
- What is each UCAR program
doing for the community?
- What are university capabilities and
needs in this area?
- How could we be working more closely together
in this area to reach an outcome that we can’t achieve
separately?
We hope for rich interactions and some interesting ideas to come
out of it for all of us.
During the next year, we will begin writing a new UCAR Strategic
Plan and I hope that some of our discussions this year will inform
that document.
During these unsettled times, it is reassuring that each fall
brings the Members, Affiliates and URC to Boulder to address interesting
issues for our community.
I look forward to seeing all of you next month.
Best regards,
Rick Anthes |
