Carleton representative responds to the professional concerns we have about individuals coming to us who are not taking coursework and about whom we have no modern information or experience. There is a limit to being reasonable. Richard suggests we institute a process that requires a portfolio based on a negotiated agreement. Craig Kissock says I m not responsible for doing this sort of intake and assessment. He suggests we send these folks to an outside agency to assess that standards and competencies are met or not and then send them to us with this document.

Richard agrees it is a great idea, but he suggests that candidates really don t look for a deal but look for respect. He reminds us that international students can get a handout from CFL detailing the steps they must follow. He suggests we call Judy McGilvrey to see what kind of backstopping we need to be sure we can recommend a candidate who presents us with a checkered past of courses and experiences. There is a question about persons from other states who require some kind of transitioning. Apparently, they are referred to us.
