ALL ACADEMICS AND STAFF AT UCSD (including UCSD Healthcare)

SUBJECT:    UCSD Sixth Annual Day Care and Summer Options Expo

I am pleased to announce and invite the campus community to attend the Sixth Annual Day Care and Summer Options Expo on Tuesday, March 14, 2000, in the Price Center Ballroom from 11:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. The Expo will offer UCSD's faculty, staff and students a friendly "one-stop shopping" environment in which to explore the many child care possibilities available in the County of San Diego.

The Day Care and Summer Options Expo was introduced in 1995 to provide the UCSD community with convenient opportunities to meet and interact with child care and summer programs representatives, and others. Therefore, a significant number of child care providers, vendors and UCSD Employee Support Services' departments have been invited to participate in this year's Expo.

This event is a collaborative effort and sponsored by the UCSD Early Childhood Education Center (ECEC), the Human Resources Department and Transportation and Parking Services. Therefore, in recognition of the work/life value of the UCSD Day Care and Summer Options Expo to the campus community, I am approving a one-hour administrative leave with pay for Tuesday, March 14, so employees may attend this event. Supervisors may allow employees one hour of administrative leave with pay to attend the Expo when the absence will not infringe upon the performance of the employee's required duties.

UCSD does not endorse any of the individuals, programs, companies or services that may be present at the Expo. UCSD is only facilitating convenient access to the child care and summer options information.
