Laboratory Director John Browne will hold three town-hall meetings this week to discuss this year's salary review exercise with technical and administrative nonexempt employees. During this year's salary review exercise, I received comments from many of you, particularly those of you in the Technical Support and Administrative Nonexempt series. I view this as an opportunity for an open exchange of information, and I look forward to hearing directly and personally from individual participants. At the book fair, Laboratory employees and subcontract personnel can help students at Dixon Elementary restock their library by donating new or used books, or making financial donations to a fund being set up as part of the 1999 United Way campaign.
Books written for elementary school-age students are preferred.
And, a portion of the proceeds from the book fair will be donated to the school to purchase books, said Olivera. A fire earlier this month at Dixon Elementary School gutted the school's library and computer laboratory, Olivera explained. Employees also can meet representatives of agencies who receive funding assistance from the United Way. The Lab's United Way campaign ends Nov. 13. Employees and subcontract personnel who donated to United Way last year have received a pre-campaign pledge card and information about this year's campaign and about a new giving program called the Jemez Giving Circle.
