* This month, the data provided by CBIZ concerning new job titles and pay grades for our university staff was finalized after review and revision by Human Resources. This data was presented to the president's executive team and a project completion timeline was constructed (all dates are approximate). Go to http://www.wichita.edu/j/?4834 for details.

* Student Involvement will host the fourth annual Back-to-School Bash from 6:30-9 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 20, in the RSC courtyard. We are looking for other departments to help co-sponsor an inflatable or midway game. Volunteers for the event are also needed. This is a staff-run event, allowing all students to participate. Helping out the night of the bash is a great way to interact with students and welcome them back to campus. If you would like to be a co-sponsor, volunteer or help out in any way for this event, contact Nick Messing at nicholas.messing@wichita.edu.
