Re: An idea for NWCA

[becky.rickly@umich.edu (Becky Rickly)]

I've just checked out the NWCA home page
(http://www2.colgate.edu/diw/NWCA.html), and it does indeed connect with a
variety of useful resources--bravo!  I guess I was thinking, though, about
the more specific requests folks were making here:  syllabi, policy sheets,
etc., though I can see that kind of thing coming along soon as well.
especially if WE send it to those in charge (Colgate?  Alan Brown?).  Nice
job!  If, as Beth suggested, we all take the time to either send copies of
syllabi, etc., OR send that online information to the NWCA (since, as joan
mentions, not everyone has equal access), perhaps the pages could serve as
a repository of our collective knowledge.

Along those lines, Beth, who pays for the postage/copying charges for the
physcial handouts to be copied/mailed in the group you mentioned?
