Hello,
While the discussion of budget cuts is on many agendas, I was wondering if
you wouldn't mind sharing with me some statistics about staffing in your
institute's language lab or resource center. In particular, I would like to
know if any lab/center has a Director that is half time or less. In our
Language Resource Center at UW-La Crosse, (student body 10,000: Modern
Languages Dept., around 1400 enrolled in classes per semester, of which 700
are majors/minors), the LRC Director position is currently 50%, which I
believe merits an increase in hours/percentage due to the evolution and use
of the Lab, and technology in general, for language classes. I am in search
of "evidence" to convince the administration of this need. Any help that you
may offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jean
