AGENDA:
1) Cirrus Manual
Last time there was a suggestion to create a manual for Cirrus network
activities. In which form and how to design it, so it would be useful for
different target groups?
2) How to run a career service office – Anette from Kolding will give info about their services
3) Student reports (Stina-Lena Hellgren)
How do we use them, do we require reports, where do we publish them?
4) Selection of incoming students (Stina-Lena Hellgren)
Is it just politics? Do we select the best student even if he/she comes from a university that is not that attractive to our students?
