The 2011 KAEOPP/TASP Fall Conference concluded last week. It was very nice seeing so many familiar faces, but there were many new faces there as well. Because the faces of people employed in TRiO positions throughout the state is always changing, KAEOPP would like to know who is employed in TRiO throughout Kentucky. To do that we are encouraging everyone at each institution that hosts a TRiO program to complete the KAEOPP Membership/TRiO Employee Update Form. The KAEOPP Service Member-at-Large will be publishing the results of this information on the KAEOPP Members Section of the KAEOPP Website (this will be published soon, and will be password protected).
