Excerpt

The "people" data from Kevin needs to be aggregated, and added to existing faculty info, for it to be useful.


Kevin provides two spreadsheets whenever he kindly provides us with a snapshot (monthly?). One is the "grad" spreadsheet (from Pat Hine's data), and the other is a "staff" spreadsheet (from Sharon de Roos's data).

Oliver has a third "faculty" spreadsheet (data from Joyce Boda); not updated except by hand.
