SUBMISSION POLICY FOR CLS MONTHLY BULLETIN The CLS Monthly Bulletin began as a way to share the many lectures, presentations and events of interest to CLS faculty and staff. Rather than receiving a multitude of emails, it was felt a single email summarizing these events for the college was a better vehicle. If you have events you’d like included in the CLS Monthly Bulletin, please send the information in an email to the CLS Dean’s Office at clsdeansoffice@uwlax.edu and use the subject CLS Monthly Notice. The timing of the emails will be important. Any item you wish to be included in the upcoming month’s bulletin, must be received by the deadline in the current year’s schedule.
