• The Faculty Senate meeting held on 11/1 included guests President
  Thomas, Provost Fernandez and VP Herbst. They presented information
  on the potential sites for the new Nursing/Health Sciences building.
  The President is asking for your email opinion regarding the two sites
  deemed the best options. They are either the lawn north of Talkington
  Hall or the lawn east of the Library. In a separate email you will be sent
  a schematic of the sites to help you see what the building footprint
  would look like on these areas. The two areas are labeled C (lawn
  north of Talkington) and E (lawn east of the Library). The President
  and executive committee must make a decision on the site by next
  Friday so would appreciate your input ASAP.
