Making a Better [New] is a podcast dedicated to fostering a more inclusive New College campus climate by creating space for "real talk," and amplifying the voices of our community members, with a particular focus on voices we don't often get to hear. In this episode, we learn about the recent focus on creating a staff council at New College of Florida. Two staff members, Naomi Copeland and Mike Jones, talk with professor Katheleen Casto, about their vision for a staff council that would not only benefit staff, but also serve to improve the climate of the entire New College community. Enhancing staff awareness, and providing staff with a voice on matters of campus-wide importance is seen as an opportunity to improve staff morale as well as organizational effectiveness. We also did a bit "person on the street" staff interviews, and Marguerite Cristiani shares her feelings about why the creation of a staff council would be valuable.
