Hi all,

It was good to see you all yesterday for the first day of orientation. I have followed up on a couple things that were mentioned, so I wanted to send a quick update:

I'm sure you will receive this from others, but here is the list of upcoming visiting artists: https://art.fsu.edu/visiting-artists-and-scholars/<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fart.fsu.edu%2Fvisiting-artists-and-scholars%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cart-mfastudio%40lists.fsu.edu%7C23a4f1461b0a431a697908dddf3299c7%7Ca36450ebdb0642a78d1b026719f701e3%7C0%7C0%7C638912130590825296%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=DAkEGt77JTNz%2BtmCLjm7NoU6GiphpPRc2u8h8Yfu17w%3D&reserved=0>

I checked on the CAB security guard's schedule and Nick says they should be there 4:30pm - 1am, 7days a week. He is making a sign to post near the guard's desk.

This page has info about the bicycle rental program and also has a link to register your own bike in case of theft: https://transportation.fsu.edu/bike<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftransportation.fsu.edu%2Fbike&data=05%7C02%7Cart-mfastudio%40lists.fsu.edu%7C23a4f1461b0a431a697908dddf3299c7%7Ca36450ebdb0642a78d1b026719f701e3%7C0%7C0%7C638912130596871886%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=rvhqd34e8y2kD4%2BRgGlC49xF%2Bis0rW9uu5CN0igRwYo%3D&reserved=0> . It should be fine to bring your bike into your studio for security but remember that electric bikes and scooters aren't allowed in FSU buildings<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fregulations.fsu.edu%2Fsites%2Fg%2Ffiles%2Fupcbnu486%2Ffiles%2Fregulations%2Fnoticed%2F20230516%2FFSU-2.010%2520Redline.pdf&data=05%7C02%7Cart-mfastudio%40lists.fsu.edu%7C23a4f1461b0a431a697908dddf3299c7%7Ca36450ebdb0642a78d1b026719f701e3%7C0%7C0%7C638912130596885156%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=p0unKbNnPgQcqz0nDqxMvnK5ZhbnlT6ARABI%2FI%2BhRZs%3D&reserved=0>. And, again, if there is enough interest, I am happy to advocate for a more secure solution than the bike rack out front.

Here is the link to the mailing list that sends a daily update about parking lot closures and reservations: https://lists.fsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/transportation_announcements<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flists.fsu.edu%2Fmailman%2Flistinfo%2Ftransportation_announcements&data=05%7C02%7Cart-mfastudio%40lists.fsu.edu%7C23a4f1461b0a431a697908dddf3299c7%7Ca36450ebdb0642a78d1b026719f701e3%7C0%7C0%7C638912130596894266%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=b8tCrAsRbTZEQTnrATCNHJqIMWOq0UyoLU93GhrS73M%3D&reserved=0> (This is a parking cheat-code!)

If we talked about you registering for Supervised Teaching, reach out to Tenee so you can be enrolled. I will reach out to everyone in the course during the first week of classes. Also, here is the link to the Teaching Development Program from CAT that we are starting to integrate into our Teaching College Art and Supervised Teaching courses: https://teaching.fsu.edu/teaching-development-program/<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fteaching.fsu.edu%2Fteaching-development-program%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cart-mfastudio%40lists.fsu.edu%7C23a4f1461b0a431a697908dddf3299c7%7Ca36450ebdb0642a78d1b026719f701e3%7C0%7C0%7C638912130596905083%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=SfIkQAaiXoy0u5sgJ9VwZ%2FEXPshU9h7c%2B9ko4IuSUSk%3D&reserved=0>
 (Note that it is not a certificate program as I said, but can be applied to the Graduate School's teaching certificate program - either way, participating in this program will be worth the effort if you plan to teach after FSU) Note that there is an information session on Thursday, August 28th, 3:30 – 4:30 p.m., via Zoom OR Friday, August 29th, 10:30 – 11:30 a.m. via Zoom. If you're in Supervised Teaching, please register for one of them if you can.

Finally, when you all organize your first LGA meeting, please let me know so I can attend the start of the meeting to (1) help facilitate the voting of new officers and (2) to find out who is interested in helping to curate work to be shown during the 9/5 Dean's Advisory Council meeting at CAB.

Thanks!
