The life and times of the Intermountain Affiliate
June/July RBD Monthlies - Jon

Name:              Jon Dalton

Month: June/July

Year: 2009

Position: AD-BA

What were your goals for the past month?

1. collaborate with NAU to establish budget for IACURH 2009

2. communicate with LASI Chair and invoice for last year’s LASI inductees

3. effectively transition and complete all duties as assigned to AD-BA in guidelines and policy

Did you accomplish all of these goals? If not, why not?  Talk about any academic and personal commitments that impeded on your success with IACURH.

I did not complete every goal listed above. I did meet with Kris Lyons via phone and email throughout the month and with various national executives regarding the budget in order to continue to establish the IACURH 2009 budget and make improvements in hopes of serving the most IACURH delegates possible.

Andrew and I decided it would be best to wait until the beginning of September to invoice IACURH schools for last year’s inductee fees. We formulated a plan and Andrew sent out an email via the IACURH listserv in order to communicate with IACURH when they could expect to receive invoices. This will be revisited and completed Sept. 1, 2009.

I have been unable to complete any recon reports with NACURH since I took office. I have had numerous conversations with the NACURH Advisor and NAF regarding these issues and they are completely up-to-date on the progress. I am currently getting in contact with the NACURH accountant in order to receive an update on IACURH’s current financial status and will re-install all financial documents and complete the appropriate reports as soon as I am able.

What have you done really well?

I have maintained and persevered through circumstances that are difficult in order to fulfill my duties to the best of my ability and communicated well with my coworkers.

Things to accomplish for next month:

I.            Finalize NAU’s IACURH Budget by August 14, 2009 at 11:59 p.m. MST

II.            Acquire IACURH’s financial information and reinstall on AD-BA laptop

III.            Update IACURH budget to be current and accurate
