[VPAAEtal] Faculty Lounge

MEMO

 

To: Faculty and Professional Staff, Texas A&M University-Commerce

From: Faculty Senate

Dated May 2, 2007

Subject: Inauguration of Faculty Lounge

 

The faculty senate at A&M-Commerce started working on plans for initiating a
faculty lounge at our university. Years ago, we used to have a faculty
lounge in the Heritage House on campus but after its renovation we lost that
facility, of course for legitimate reasons, as openly available for faculty
meetings and social interactions. President McFarland and Provost were
receptive to our idea. 

 

We are pleased to report that we finally will have a faculty lounge on our
campus. Lots of thanks go to Provost Ashley for allocating Binnion Hall's
large room at the front (on Education Drive coming from Monroe Street) and
for "finding" brand new furniture for the lounge. The faculty senate has
appointed a Faculty Lounge Committee that will be a standing committee
renewed every year for day-today operation of the lounge. 

 

You all are invited now for attending the inauguration and ribbon-cutting
ceremony at Binnion Hall, Room #126 on Tuesday, May 8, 2007 at 2:30. We will
have refreshments for you. We will introduce the Faculty Lounge Committee on
that occasion and hope that details on operation of the lounge will soon be
announced to all of you.

 

Knowing that next week is busy for everyone, we do request you all to stop
by for a few minutes and help us celebrate the availability of a facility
that faculty can use for meetings, interactions, and relaxation. Thank you
for your attention.
