I think they discussed the accreditation document during the first half hour (I was late)- what I did catch was:
There is still a search going on for a Biostatistician - fully funded and budgeted tenure track position.
There is concern about possible budget cuts due to the tourist slowdown. Departments have been asked to do hypothetical budgets for 5, 10, and 15% budget reductions. As you can imagine there is concern about if these budgets will be implemented in the near future.
Also discussed was the Dengue outbreak and what the faculty as PH professionals should be doing - of note to students was a reference to an operating agreement that is being processed to allow access to a very good underutilized lab in Honolulu for public health/tropical medicine research.
