Schedule meeting(s) with Committee

Completed by given deadline

Meet to discuss student’s progress. Individual meetings should last approximately 15 minutes. Committee member signs the Annual Review Signature Page. If deficiencies are found, the student presents their Improvement Action Plan with concrete metrics and clear timeline for 10-15 minutes in either individual or group meetings. The committee then provides feedback on the Improvement Action Plan. Committee signs Annual Review Signature Page, agreeing that they have read the Annual Review Update Form and the Executive Summary and that they have met with the student either in a group or individually. If the student's work needed improvement, a signature indicates that the student's proposed action plan is sufficient to remedy any deficiencies discussed in the student's review. 

Send a single summary email of all meeting discussions to entire committee. If student created Improvement Action Plan, email should summarize discussion and any additions to Plan.
