uPortal Steering Committee Stakeholder Elections
The uPortal Steering Committee will be filling four stakeholder positions through elections held this Summer. If you are interested in serving as a community advocate for uPortal to help shape its growth, please nominate yourself using the instructions found elsewhere in this newsletter. The committee meets monthly by phone as well as in person at the conferences. This year the group will be undertaking an outreach initiative to proactively seek increased input from portal users, administrators, and managers. If you fell you can help speak as to how we might better address their needs, please consider running for a position on the committee.
