Gazette

The Gazette is a set of reports from the main administrative units of the College. They have been prepared by the vice presidents and deans and some other senior administrators as a way to summarize for the president, the faculty, the Board of Trustees, and one another the main projects, issues, and challenges for the coming year, and to introduce the new people and their roles in each area. What started as a set of documents for the Conference's own use has grown into this more widely distributed Gazette, which we hope you will find useful.

The Conference is not formally a decision-making body. It is rather a place where the main branches of the College's activities can share information, anticipate opportunities and difficulties, aid in smooth coordination with each other, and brainstorm about perspectives on issues of College-wide significance. Decisions are, however, owned by the administrator in the area being discussed or by the President. Thus, we intend the Conference to be a facilitative group, rather than a hurdle to be faced by anyone proposing change.
