NTU Members,

 
As we all transition to a new era in NTU/NPS relations... YOUR VOICE IS ESSENTIAL!!
 
Our goal is to put to rest the adversarial interactions and welcome an informed, active, VIGILANT collaboration. Only through a united, active, organized, informed membership will you see change in YOUR BUILDING.
 
TODAY, in your PD Breakouts, talk to your NTU Vice Presidents, to your NTU Building Rep, and discuss the new NTU BUILDING COMMITTEE.  
 
If you do NOT have either a REP or a NTUVP, then talk amongst your peers to decide WHO WILL ATTEND TOMORROW'S VITAL BUILDING REP COMMITTEE MEETING.
