These issues have been under consideration for some time. Background information on these recommendations is available. Space recommendations and decisions: 1. Allocate Bloedel 156, 156 A and B to CFRIT who will vacate 311 Bloedel.

Dr Christian Torgersen to occupy 364 Bloedel (vacated by Dale Cole and David Thorud). DENIED pending further discussion. B. Bruce Bare, Dean June 19, 2005 Colleagues On June 3, 2005, the College Resources Committee discussed three pending space issues, but did not propose any final actions. The three issues discussed were previously covered in a previous College Resources Committee meeting on April 17, 2005. Our discussion of space issues on June 3 provided additional information to supplement that of our prior space discussions on April 17th. At the April 17 meeting, we postponed decisions on Dr Ford's space request and the possible move of CFR IT from BLD 311 to BLD 156. A decision to locate Dr Dean Glawe to BLD 334 was approved pending completion of an MOU between UW/WSU and a positive faculty vote. These discussions are available for review. On June 3, the following space requests were addressed: a. Dr. Dean Glawe - office space Office space in Bloedel Hall, Room 334 was approved on April 17, 2005 PENDING completion of a suitable faculty appointment in CFR for Dr. Glawe AND a signed memorandum of understanding between the UW and WSU. The faculty have approved Dr Glawe's faculty appointment, but the MOU has not yet been finalized. Thus, this space allocation is still PENDING. 6/3/05 b. Dr. David Ford Dr. Ford seeks additional shared bench and office space to accommodate two new students in Winkenwerder 217 (Franklin and Peterson lab). Drs. Franklin and Peterson agree to discuss the use of a lab bench and office space to accommodate Dr. Ford's new graduate students. Additional discussion among plant science faculty regarding space issues in WINK is on-going. Thus, this space allocation is ON HOLD pending additional discussion. 6/3/05 c. CFR IT Group CFR IT proposes to move into Bloedel 156 (510 square feet), 156A (76 square feet) and 156 B (77 square feet) - total 653 square feet and that the student teaching space presently assigned to this space be moved to 311 Bloedel (691 square feet). All computers presently located in Bloedel 311 will be moved to Bloedel 156. In essence, the computer lab would be moved from Bloedel 311 to Bloedel 156 with Bloedel 156A and 156B being used by CFR IT for work space. We are waiting for more information on the costs of the relocation from BLD 311 to BLD 156 and the subsequent use of BLD 311. Thus, this request is ON HOLD pending additional information concerning costs of relocation. 6/3/05 B. Bruce Bare, Dean April 17, 2005 College Resources Committee Meeting - April 1, 2005 The following space requests were addressed: a. Dr. Dean Glawe - office and lab space Recommendation: Suitable space is available in Bloedel Hall, Room 334 which has a lab bench and sink and will enable Dr. Glawe to operate this room as an office/lab. He can operate his microscope equipment from this space and it has adequate wall space for book shelves, etc. For his molecular work, he will utilize space in Bloedel 260 (Edmonds lab) and at least 2 graduate students can be accommodated there. In addition, space for molecular work is available in Hitchcock (Ammirati lab). PENDING completion of a suitable faculty appointment in CFR for Dr. Glawe AND a signed memorandum of understanding between the UW and WSU this space request will be approved and effective. 4/17/05. b. Dr. David Ford Proposal: Shared space be allocated to Dr. Ford to accommodate his need for bench and office space for 2 new students in Winkenwerder 215 (Hinckley/Sprugel lab). Drs. Hinckley and Sprugel agree to discuss the use of a lab bench and office space to accommodate Dr. Ford's new graduate students. Additional discussion among plant science faculty regarding space issues in WINK on-going. ON HOLD pending additional discussion. 4/17/05 c. CFR IT Group Proposal: CFR IT be allocated Bloedel 156 (510 square feet), 156A (76 square feet) and 156 B (77 square feet) - total 653 square feet and that the student teaching space presently assigned to this space be moved to 311 Bloedel (691 square feet). All computers presently located in Bloedel 311 will be moved to Bloedel 156. In essence, the computer lab would be moved from Bloedel 311 to Bloedel 156 with Bloedel 156A and 156B being used by CFR IT for work space. ON HOLD pending additional information concerning costs of relocation. 4/17/05 B. Bruce Bare, Dean February 7, 2005 College Resources Committee The College Resources Committee met on January 21, 26 and February 4, 2005 to discuss a variety of space issues. Associate Dean Edmonds made the following recommendations. Actions of the Dean are so noted below. 1. Dr. Kathy Wolf move her faculty office from 06A Anderson to 303 Anderson with the understanding that after July 1, 2005, the latter space may be shared with other staff. APPROVED (Note: This alters my decision of 10/22/04). 2. Ms. Carol Green remain in the space she presently occupies in Bloedel Hall. She will also continue to operate out of the Natural Resources Library. The Committee was unable to find suitable space in CFR as requested. As remodeling plans of the FRL become more certain, we will need to revisit this issue again. APPROVED 3. Suitable office and lab space could not be found for WSU faculty member Dr. Dean Glawe who wishes to relocate to CFR. Although space was found in Winkenwerder Hall, it was not deemed satisfactory to Dr. Glawe. Dr. Glawe's space request will be placed on hold. ON HOLD 4. Visiting Taiwan scientist Dr. Ping-Cheng Hsieh move his office from 017 Winkenwerder to 238 Bloedel (Dr. Susan Bolton’s lab). APPROVED 5. 104 Winkenwerder will become the administrative home for the Faculty Chair and support staff. The new faculty administrator (Ms. Naomi Wilson) will be located in 104A Winkenwerder. Mark Vande Kamp will move his office from 104A Winkenwerder to 017 Winkenwerder. Dr Jim Agee will move his office from 104B Winkenwerder to 332 Bloedel. Dr Rick Gustafson will move his office from 332 Bloedel to 104B Winkenwerder. Henceforth, 104B will be reserved as the Faculty Chair’s office. APPROVED 6. Dr. Joe Roos is assigned 228 Anderson. Dr Roos is a research associate working with CINTRAFOR. In addition, he has paid teaching assignments in both winter and spring quarters of 2005. He will occupy his office in Anderson 228 at least through June 30, 2005 at which time an assessment will be made regarding more permanent space. APPROVED 7. The Committee discussed moving the CFR IT lab from 311 Bloedel to 156 Bloedel as well as assigning offices in 156A and B to CFR IT. The TA space (currently 156 Bloedel) could be moved to 311 Bloedel. It is recommended that this plan be put on hold pending further discussion with the affected parties. ON HOLD January 10, 2005 Colleagues: On October 15 we solicited equipment requests for available state funds during the current academic year. All requests received have been reviewed by the Dean's Council and approximately $94,000 was allocated to specific purchases. Please work through the Faculty Chair or Dean's Office (as appropriate) to implement the decisions refelected on the two referenced spreadsheets. As this is the end of the biennium I urge all receipents of College state funds to finalize all purchases as early as possible. In some cases, purchases must be completed as early as March 2005 in order to ensure that the proper accounting is completed prior to the end of the biennium. Thank you. B. Bruce Bare, Dean
