[Nsa] Email to NSA on LT Funding Subcommittee

[ottobli at ucar.edu]

Dear NSA Colleagues,

As many of you are aware, there is currently a moratorium on hiring of
ladder-track scientists. Roger Wakimoto has appointed a small subcommittee
to start discussing:

•	What has to be done to lift the scientist-hiring moratorium in a way
that is consistent with our institutional values, institutional needs,
commitments to scientific staff (including valuing our staff), and
budgetary constraints?

•	What changes in our policies or practices would be desirable to
accomplish this in the current NCAR environment?

As your representative on this subcommittee, I want to assure you that the
staff will be fully involved in discussion of options that become
proposed.  Please feel free to stop by my office (ML 113B), call me
(x1723) or email me (ottobli at ucar.edu) with your thoughts and concerns.

Best regards,

Bette Otto-Bliesner
NSA Science Advisor
