Guest Speaker: Dawn Floyd, Title IX Coordinator, UNC Charlotte
Dawn Floyd, Title IX Coordinator at UNC Charlotte gave an overview of the Title IX Amendment. This amendment was the
first federal law to prohibit sex discrimination against students and employees of educational institutions. Dawn explained
that sexual harassment and assaults fall under Title IX. Her goal is to investigate, stop, remedy and prevent sexual assaults on
campus as well as to educate students and employees. To help inform students a two hour online educational module called,
“Think About It”, will become a requirement for students in the Fall 2015 semester and an informative brochure will soon be
available. Students should be aware of how to request help, report and work through their options on how to proceed with
incidents. More information can be obtained at http://titleix.uncc.edu/about-title-ix . Responsible employees and any member
of the community can complete an incident form located at http://incidentreport.uncc.edu. On the last page of the form, there
is a confidentiality box to check, if the student wishes. Even if not checked, the IX Coordinator and/or deputy will be very
discreet. For further information, please visit the Title IX website.

VI.
President’s Report
Welcome to the new Area 8 representative, Cathy Moore and the new alternate for Area 18, Rachel Folds.
Jim would like to put out a survey for the Fall Festival. Please submit to him in writing questions you feel would be
beneficial. These questions should be brief. Give your response on how you feel about the possibility of having the Fall
Festival held on the weekend thus giving employees more time to spend at the festival. The goal is to have the survey sent to
area reps by the end of this week.
Golden Nugget program is ready to roll out. The first two Golden Nugget Awards have been given to the Chancellor and his
Chief of Staff, Krista Newkirk at the Board of Trustees meeting in October. Executive Order: All reps are to nominate two
people in your areas. Go to the website to submit your nominations the first week of December. This will begin the process
and “plant the seeds”. Area reps will take the award to the nominated employees. This also gives the representative the
opportunity to meet area employees.
Emeritus Program for UNC Charlotte is being considered. Please review and a vote will be taken online. Please submit any
concerns. The Emeritus Program will be for UNC Charlotte retirees who can be nominated. Once approved, these
individuals could be given an award with a photo taken with the Chancellor at the Staff Recognition Luncheon. All
representatives should vote.
The Chancellor will cover Salary Banding in our December Staff Council meeting. Put any questions together for this
session.
“Food for Thought”: (a) Jim will initiate talks with any concerns and speak with the SCA and Faculty Council - “Coffee with
the Councils”; (b) Working on a possible spring event to honor previous presidents called “Past Presidents Day”.
Inclement Weather Policy will be discussed. Beginning January 2015, all non-essential employees will have to take personal
leave or be allowed to make up time missed in the same pay period if possible or 90 days of the inclement weather closure.
VII.
Adjournment
