Have someone come in and do a Medicare Workshop
- This will be happening late January, early February (date to be announced soon)
Place for people to post non work related items ~ recipes, requests for recommendations, selling tickets, looking for a ride, etc.
- This is something that SWL Committee is not going to handle and monitor, but individuals may have something coming your way. If you are interested in participating, let me know and I will give your name to the person who will spearhead.
Have a shared sick bank for staff to donate their time for others who need it.

Sick time is provided to staff employees for short-term medical leave. As a college funded benefit that is awarded annually, sick time is not transferable to other staff employees. The value of a sick day differs between employees. Transfer of days from one employee to another creates equity challenges, among other issues. In the event of a qualified medical leave, employees are eligible to receive New York State Disability benefits, which is in place to supplement pay. Besides sick time and NY disability, full time/full year employees receive paid time off benefits in the form of vacation and personal days that also can be used to supplement any medical leave. For eligible employees who require a medically related short-term leave, the College provides different options for leave of absences and continuation of benefits while on approved leave.
Recently learned that the 1pm Friday yoga class is getting cancelled. I know I and others who regularly attend get a lot out of it.
- From Assistant Director of Campus Operations & Golisano Training Center Director ~ I believe there may have been a misunderstanding as we did not cancel the yoga class on Friday, but instead it is being changed to an acro-yoga class.
Lynne Boucher expressed an interest to us in teaching an acro-yoga class in the Spring. We then gave Lynne the option to continue her Fun Friday Flow class, or switch that class to acro-yoga and she decided to switch it. If you feel that there may be more interest in the Fun Friday Flow versus the acro-yoga maybe you can speak to Lynne about this and see what her thoughts are.
