VSQ Changes

Gloria

• Automating VSQ reservations

• Last item being automated is room assignment

• New web page has the schedule

• Goes from there to easy innkeep system (linked by Jeff’s code)

• They get VSQ commons code early

• Room number assignment won’t show up until 4pm on the day they arrive. Is that ok?

  • Late is useful for us to be able to move people round due to late reservations

  • Rosalie: get WiFi password ASAP? Along with VSQ commons code perhaps.

  • Suggestion to base it on when room is ready, but that requires additional systems for reporting and monitoring that info.

Carolyn

• Email Carolyn about 22A engineering time needs.

• Typically reserve about a half night per mature instrument.

New code of conducts and meetings guidelines from DEI committee

Luca

• DEI committee worked on code of conduct (CoC). Will be distributed soon.

• Luca presenting to us now, ahead of time, so he can do this before he leaves.

• There is a CoC online right now is a business code of conduct, which is driven by requirements of working with NSF.

• This CoC is different than that one. This is based on values. This new one will be incorporated in the old CoC to keep things simple.

• This new CoC is shorter (<1 page) than old one (several pages).

• CoC applies to observers (guests). Will have to acknowledge it.
