Committee on Institutional Cooperation
The 2009 Committee on Institutional Cooperation's (CIC) Academic Professional Staff Councils (APSC) annual conference was held October 18-19, 2009 and was attended by representatives from Northwestern, Ohio State, University of Illinois, Purdue University, and the University of Wisconsin. The APSC is sponsored by a consortium of Big Ten university staff councils and meets yearly to share information and best practices. The topics discussed at this year’s meeting were state budget cuts, tuition benefits, career development, and reclassification of jobs.
NUSAC believes that the CIC conference is a great opportunity for sharing information and ideas to help foster better working environments for staff in all participating institutions. For more information on the CIC, go to: http://www.cic-apsc.wisc.edu/index.htm.
