December 12, 2008 Joint Meeting at Monmouth University

Below are some excerpts from an e-mail distributed by Jacqui DaCosta (TCNJ) regarding our December 12 joint meeting with VALE_SIL and NJ_ACRL_UE.

[begins]
On Friday December 12, 10:00-12:00, we will be meeting at Monmouth University, Magill Commons Room 109 (for directions, please see below and on agenda). If you need any further information on the venue or parking, please contact Eleonora Dubicki (edubicki@monmouth.edu)

The purpose of the meeting is to start the process of producing some IL benchmarks/standards that would enable institutions to assess students in the transition from 2 to 4 year colleges, at different stages (e.g. First Year, Sophomore, etc.). It would be really helpful if you could take a look at some of the links and documents attached, prior to the meeting, as these might guide and help us to get off to a running start:
