WELCOME TO MY BLOG

 

By now, all AUFA members should have received an email from ‘Sharepoint’ letting them know that have been added as a user to ‘Ann Dulhanty’s blog’.  The blog can be found at http://sharepoint.acadiau.ca/blogs/adulhanty_blog/default.aspx . It requires a Username (in the format acadia\username) and password, which are the usual username and password that a person has for access to the Acadia network.

 

Rounded Rectangle: WELCOME TO MY BLOG This blog records my observations of organizational change at Acadia—an investigation of how faculty are involved in the administration, exploring what works and what doesn’t, and asking, if it doesn’t work, why not?  So I have started probing, kind of like an investigative journalist or a concerned citizen: attending meetings and asking questions. Topics that have come up to date include the VPA search, Acadia Advantage 2.0 and Endowed Chair funds.

 

My blog was born from the realization that I was going to forget what I've found if I didn’t write it down,  and the recollection of one of my initial goals: to engage faculty in the workings of this institution.

 

For AUFA members, it may provide a better understanding of how the institution works, provoke discussion on issues of interest or stimulate ideas for improvement that can be effected by the Association.

 

I invite each of you to read my posts, and to add comments (your opinions, impressions, clarifications or past experiences) to any post you wish. Feel free to contact me directly if there is something you think I should investigate or write about.

 

I hope it will interest a few people and make a difference.

Ann Dulhanty
