Check out Professional Development Training at www.lcsc.edu/pdt. The
program offers free learning courses and web resources to all LCSC
employees, including faculty, student workers, irregular help, and
adjuncts.  The PDT committee comprised of faculty and staff have
been gearing up the last few months for the next session’s offerings. 
Call Julie Crea at x2333 with any questions.

Grades are due to the Registrar by noon on 5/19.

Commencement: Faculty will line up on the truck ramp on 5/16 at 5pm.
For the opening ceremony we will enter in two separate rows. The rows
should be as even as possible. Clay Robinson and Brian Christenson are
Commencement Marshals. I believe we have about 350 students
participating in the ceremony. At the end, we will have an honor guard
of faculty that students must pass through on their way to the reception
in the SUB. Faculty should congratulate students and keep them moving
toward the SUB.

The commencement ceremony for our CdA graduates took place in
Coeur d’Alene last Sunday, 5/4, at NIC in the Beautiful Schuler
Auditorium. It was great seeing the CdA faculty and many Lewiston
faculty were in attendance (it was great seeing them too. J )
Professor Chris Alhman from the Social Work program won the
student selected Faculty Award. Congratulations!
