End of summer....

Time for a reality check...here was my summer "to do" list at work:

develop the assessment plan for one of our degree programs
                   worked on it, didn't finish it
form an curriculum committee for that program
                   got a "yes" from one person
make modifications to the program based on changes in course offerings
                   didn't do
create advising notes for the students in the program
                  didn't finish, but started
develop a co-terminal degree option for that program
                  didn't do
develop guidelines for departmental external reviews
                  gathered examples from other places
develop list of possible external review committee members
                  completed***
apply for teacher CEU credits for a fall program (something I've never done before and have no model for doing...)
                 spent a lot of time on this, but not sure I've done it right
work with admissions to coordinate this fall program for potential students
                  didn't do
develop a charge for a task group on sexual harassment that I'm chairing
                 didn't finish
recruit faculty to serve on the committee
                 got a list of names
figure out how to dissolve a non-profit organization where I am the secretary-treasurer
                 made significant progress, know how to do it, just need to do it
create syllabus for fall class
                completed*****


Well, that is pretty depressing.  Of course, there were many things that didn't make the list that had to be managed--a couple of sticky personnel issues, summer advising, planning a fall event, some alumni visits. 

Classes start today.
