Greetings New Colleagues! I want to thank all of
you for your warm welcome and for the time and great ideas that you
shared with me over the last several weeks to help me understand how
OSP can best serve you and the Clemson research community! In
appreciation, we would like to invite you to drop by our offices at
300 Brackett next Friday, April 5 from 3:30 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. to enjoy
some light refreshments with the OSP staff in the spirit of
fellowship and collaboration as we begin a new era of OSP.
We
are kicking off some new features/services that many of you indicated
would be helpful:
“Research
ROAR”
- This is our newly-named OSP Newsletter, to be published every
Wednesday afternoon, and will contain “need-to-know” information,
along with a listing of selected broad-based funding opportunities
that may have general appeal across several disciplines at CU
(limited submissions excluded). If there is faculty interest in
coordinating a multidisciplinary proposal, OSP will be happy to
provide this service. We are providing a “sneak-peak” with
today’s inaugural Research ROAR.
Standard
Form Set
– We are revising the appearance and formatting of our standard forms
to reflect Clemson University’s professional identity in a uniform,
version-controlled manner. The complete set will be posted to
the Forms and Templates OSP web page by April 15, 2013.
Suggestion
Box
– As I am committed to continual process improvement, we are adding a
“Suggestion Box” link to the OSP homepage. Please feel free to
offer any additional thoughts and opinions for ways that we can
improve services to you and to the CU investigator community.
Messages submitted to the Suggestion Box will be directed to my
personal email address only.
Again, please let me add my thanks for your time, and I
look forward to working with you in the coming weeks, months and
years.
Kind Regards,
Sheila
