Hi All,
I hope you are all well! I am reaching out with some tools, some requests and some announcements for PIs/field crews and anyone else who will be residing on site this summer.
- Hubbard Brook Checklists: Attached are the updated version of the Hubbard Brook Hiring Checklist + Guidelines and Expectations Checklist that are meant to be optional tools that our community could use if desired. Thank you to everyone who provided feedback to these resources.
- Hiring Checklist: An optional tool for PIs/field crew members to use during the hiring process to help improve communication about job requirements
- Guidelines and Expectations Checklist: An optional tool to facilitate communication about expectations within field crews (members, PI’s, visitors, etc.) and among residents.
- Housing Survey: We are doing things a bit different this year. We are still sending out an optional Housing Survey to our residents which is meant to help improve housing arrangements and provide a safe and inclusive housing experience for everyone. However, we would like for this process to be useful to you all and be more of a collaboration. We understand that each field crew and institution may have their own method of rooming arranging, so we will be providing the survey responses that we receive to the respective PI's/field crew leaders in the form of an excel sheet. Feel free to use this link to send to your crews if you find this helpful. (Form Deadline: Friday, April 19th)
- Hubbard Brook Orientation: We have two official dates for the mandatory Hubbard Brook Zoom Orientation: Monday, April 22nd and Thursday, April 25th. Here, future residents will get to know those in their community, revise housing/code of conduct policies and answer any questions. Both dates will be the same event so attendance to only one of the orientations is needed. Please have them fill out this time availability poll by Friday, April 12th. Official times will be selected and announced later this month.
One of our goals for this season is to improve the communication we have with folks bringing/leading crews on site in order for us to have all the updated information that we need to continu
e moving forward (arrival dates, departure dates, emergency contact forms, names of students, etc.). Please feel free to reach out with any questions (ddelacruz@hubbardbrookfoundation.org), and I am looking forward to a great field season!
