The search committee for the Associate Provost for Institutional Diversity has identified five candidates who will be invited to campus to interview for the position between Jan. 24 and Feb. 8. As soon as the itineraries for these visits are arranged, the information will be widely publicized. It is anticipated that there will be more than one open forum on campus for each candidate. The university community will be invited to these meetings through Columns, if possible, and other media.

ITLP applications due
The Instructional Technology Leadership Program gives faculty the chance to develop applications of instructional technologies for their courses and to become catalysts for change in their departments. The program, administered by the Office of Instructional Support and Development, is open to faculty who are relatively inexperienced in instructional technologies but who wish to develop their skills in the area. The ITLP provides a $2,500 equipment grant and requires a 9 a.m.-5 p.m. commitment during the week of May 14–18, monthly meetings throughout the 2001–2002 academic year, and the development of an instructional technology application with the assistance of a support team and instructional design specialists.
