20 Campus Update Prepared for Faculty Senate
Chancellor Cheryl B. Schrader, Ph.D. October 20, 2016 Thank you being here today. I appreciate this opportunity to share some information about the status of Missouri S&T and invite your input on future plans for this institution. As I shared at the General Faculty meeting earlier this month, we have worked very hard to overcome several unforeseeable challenges in the past year, from the situation at Mizzou to changes to federal rules related to which employees can be considered “exempt.” In addition, I know that you, the faculty, have had concerns and I want you to know that I am working to address your concerns. In fact, this semester I am visiting your departments with David Russell, interim chief of staff at the University of Missouri System. My thanks to many of you who have participated in these conversations, and I look forward to stopping by all your departments. I appreciate your dedication to the betterment of this institution, and I do welcome your suggestions. There are a few pieces of news I’d like to share with you today.
