Are the meetings intended for leadership or all-staff?

two full days of meetings
Suggestion: 1 day virtual meeting - highly focused agenda? once we determine agenda we can decide
what do people need to attend? will need to have agenda to determine specifically
December - it will be EAB in person, EC in person
anyone outside EC invited? - No
will know more once the agenda is settled
assess where we are with DEI issues
make sure we are moving in the right direction for things to be reported on the Annual Report

Informational Items (10 mins)
Allocations Stephen Deems
Conversation with Operations (cybersecurity and gateways) to define process for setting up gateway community user accounts. Moving that forward.
Allocations and Support are planning to attend the AI Institutes Summit meeting in late October to present on ACCESS services during a 1 hour session and staff a table to discuss AI institute awardee needs and think more broadly about how we can evolve the allocations process to be more accommodating of NSF-funded initiatives who potentially require extreme amounts of hardware.
MATCH Shelley Knuth
57 applications for the SC feedback sessions already - huge interest. Still looking at them although have a mix of people who have used ACCESS and those who never have.
FYI - Shelley will be on FMLA from Sept. 2-18. Feel to touch base with any of my co-PIs or Alana for any needs. Alana will attend the EC in my stead.
