Highlights & Assessment Results Successfully submitted a grant application for the United Educators Silver Grant Award in the amount of $2,500 to support risk reduction efforts. The grant will underwrite costs for the Siena C.A.R.E.S. project designed to assist individuals in responding to disturbing and or disruptive behaviors. Revised the Business Continuity Plan model for Student Affairs to maximize its usefulness and detail. Training was conducted on the new model and all departments completed their Business Continuity Plans in the fall of 2011. Plans were successfully updated in January 2012 after a division-wide tabletop exercise that tested the thoroughness and applicability of plans.
