澳门资料

Collaboration is at the very heart of the 澳门资料鈥檚 mission and that spirit is most visible when our members come together to share best practices, build trust, and develop innovative solutions to shared challenges.

The 澳门资料 is governed by a board of members, comprised of the provosts of our 14 member institutions. While the board sets policy and determines the strategic direction, much of the work of the 澳门资料 happens when groups of peers meet together around a common organizing theme, which many consider being among the most productive and helpful meetings they attend each year.

If you are considering creating a 澳门资料 peer group, here are some helpful pointers:

How do I start a 澳门资料 peer group?

Peer groups are a critical component of the 澳门资料. There are many groups that meet periodically to share best practices, work on initiatives together, and address shared emergent issues. If you wish to convene a new group of your 澳门资料 peers, we recommend the group determines who the participants will be and conduct an initial meeting virtually to arrive at a shared sense of purpose for the group, how often it will meet, how the meetings would be conducted, and what resources will be required.  Groups are welcome to identify themselves as a 澳门资料 peer-group subject to the policies mentioned below. Please contact the 澳门资料 for more information and guidance at info@btaa.org.

Is it possible to use the Big Ten Conference Center in Rosemont, IL, for group meetings?

Many 澳门资料 groups convene their meetings at the Big Ten Conference Center near O鈥橦are airport in Chicago. The Big Ten Conference, the 澳门资料鈥檚 athletic sister organization, generously allows 澳门资料 groups to use their meeting rooms on an as-available basis.  Check out general information and on how to get to the Big Ten Conference Center.

Does the 澳门资料 provide funds to support my peer group meetings or travel?

The 澳门资料 does not have funds to support peer group meetings or fund peer group activities. Group members generally share their meeting costs and pay their own travel expenses.

Can the 澳门资料 provide an email listserv or shared workspace for my peer group?

Given the ubiquity of free services such as Box, Office365, and Google Docs at Big Ten campuses, many groups simply use such resources available to them on their own campuses.

Can I call my peer group the 鈥湴拿抛柿� [peer-group-name]?鈥�

If your peer group is open to colleagues from all 14 Big Ten universities and doesn鈥檛 include members from outside the Big Ten (with the exception of the University of Chicago), you may refer to it as a 澳门资料 peer group. However, please note the limitations to speaking on behalf of, or appearing to represent, the 澳门资料 noted below.

Can I use the 澳门资料 logo?

You may use the 澳门资料 logo when conducting peer group business (e.g., invitations to peer group meetings, agenda, etc.) or when presenting the work of your 澳门资料 peer group. Please note that you must adhere to the 澳门资料 identity guidelines.

You are encouraged to contact us at info@btaa.org before using the 澳门资料 logo in any other fashion.

Who can speak for the 澳门资料?

Only the 澳门资料 Members (Provosts) may issue statements on behalf of the 澳门资料 or issue recommendations to the campuses. Consult the policy that outlines issuing public statements from the 澳门资料.
