August 20th will be our next audio teleconference. I would like to solicit agenda items. So far, the top two items on our list include the October 11-12 LTDC Conference in River Falls, and the associated agenda. I would particularly like to discuss the podcasting program on October 11th which is being formulated by the planning committee comprised of:

Tanya Joosten, UW-Milwaukee
Amy Mangrich, UW Milwaukee
Mary Mielke (LTDC rep), UW-Stevens Point
Jan Cheetham, UW-Madison
Ron Cramer, UW-Madison
Jim Jorstad, LTDC Executive Chair, UW-La Crosse

I will also be discussing the program planning with the LTDC Exec. Committee. Your feedback on the podcasting forum will be appreciated. We should also discuss the program on Quality Matters hosted by Ron Legon which is tentatively scheduled for 2:00pm on October 11th. I am looking for Karen Ryan to bring the group up to date on the logistics for our conference at UW-RF. Be sure to book your hotel rooms.

I also want to thank again, the work of Donna Raleigh as our chair last year. Her hard work and guidance was most appreciated. I also want to thank Andy Speth and Lisa Larson, our outgoing board members, for their contributions to the board and all its activities. Each of their extra efforts greatly contributed to our LTDC successes.

I will look forward to hearing you on the 20th. The teleconferencing information is below. Please do not hesitate in contacting me with any questions or concerns. Opportunities are also appreciated!
