EAP MEETINGS
The first strategy of the ETOL Action Panel is to meet three times over the Fall and Winter semesters in order to discuss the activities of the Action Panel and gain stakeholder input.
The next meeting of the EAP has not yet been scheduled, check back later for information on when and where, what the topic will be, and how to sign up to attend!
​
We look forward to seeing everyone there to discuss prevalent issues and actions we can take to benefit our ETOL community! We have a fantastic program that has great potential over the next 20 years. However, we have some issues which must be addressed before we can move on to larger issues like the climate crisis. Please join us in taking action by signing up via the link and contact the EAP Chair if you have any questions or concerns, thank you very much and have a great day!
