Meeting summary --------------- * This summer's POSSEs - admissions count (mchua, 19:08:23) * We currently have 5 (our minimum size) for POSSE Worcester (mchua, 19:08:36) * We currently have 9 (maximum 25) for POSSE RIT, but none from non-RIT institutions yet, so need to recruit more there (mchua, 19:09:04) * We have interest but no hard confirmations for POSSE CA and POSSE CMU; need to step that up (mchua, 19:09:30) * POSSE budget (mchua, 19:10:23) * LINK: http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/POSSE_Worcester_State_planning#Budget (mchua, 19:11:18) * kwurst did POSSE Worcester recruitent by looking up email addresses of faculty for all schools within ~45m drive, opening to 1hr. (mchua, 19:15:02) * kwurst emailed the faculty directly, one email per institution, sent to the faculty directly. (kwurst, 19:15:51) * kwurst emailed faculty directly, rather than Department Chair, because sometimes chairs forget to forward these emails. (kwurst, 19:16:35) * kwurst sent one email per institution, so recipients could see email addresses and determine if I had missed anyone at their school (kwurst, 19:17:28) * Future POSSEs (mchua, 19:25:19) * Discussion: evaluations (mchua, 19:35:49) * We're doing a minimal IRB process for each of the 4 campuses with POSSEs this summer; the professors working on that will have some news next week (mchua, 19:36:22) * Discussion: the future of POSSE (mchua, 19:36:50) * IDEA: Have the POSSE program itself run by faculty members - it's similar to conference organization, and it may be possible to get sponsorship for a course release in order to have the time to do this.
