[NFBofSC] Committee Assignments

Fri Sep 30 20:33:04 UTC 2022

Good Afternoon Federation Family,

Finally! The long-awaited list of committee assignments is ready for distribution. Please verify that you are on the committees that you requested. As much as possible, your requests were honored. However, it is easy to make an error when working through such a lengthy process. Even if you are not on a particular committee, you may attend those meetings if you so desire. Contact information is included for committee chairs and co-chairs. Committee chairs and co-chairs will receive the contact information for each committee member from Thom Spittle, Steve Cook, Kris Crawley or myself over the next few days. As soon as you have that information, please coordinate with Steve Cook and his designee from the Computer Science and Technology Division to establish a meeting time for your committee.

Please note the following items when planning committee meetings.

  *   As much as possible. I want to attend the first meeting of the committee to work through expectations  and procedures for how the committee will function.
  *   Committees should work together to determine how often they need to meet. Some committees will meet more than others due to the nature of their work. However, committees are not required to meet monthly but are expected to have an established schedule that matches the work they will do.
  *   New members can join a committee; likewise, members who do not attend and participate will be dropped from the committee in the future. Committee chairs, please note attendance of those who participate and share that with me as necessary.
  *   Committee chairs and co-chairs are members of the NFB of SC affiliate and reside in South Carolina. We welcome others who have an interest in what is happening in our state.
  *   Committees should appoint/elect a secretary to keep minutes for future reference. Minutes are invaluable when looking at the overall work of a group.
And now, please see committee assignments below.
