Human Rights Commission Minutes <br />January 18, 2017 <br />Page 3 of 5 <br /> <br />Commissioner Slade suggested waiting until after the event of January 19 to see what <br />participants would like to see. <br /> <br /> <br />c.Essay Contest <br /> <br /> <br />Ms. Curti stated the Commission would not know how many essays are being submitted until <br />January 30. She recommended the Commission consider how they would like to proceed with <br />these once they are received. She prepared a rubric for the Commission to review based on the <br />previous rubric used. <br /> <br />Commissioner Carey stated they had received a large number of essays last year and based on <br />what is going on politically and in the area of human rights she would expect that there would be <br />another large turnout. She suggested that the Commission put together a committee to read all of <br />the essays and provide the top 30 to the Commission to read a review. <br /> <br />Ms. Curti stated the process would be for the sub-committee to receive all of the essays at the <br />February meeting, the top 30 essays provided to the entire Commission for review at the March <br />meeting, and the winners determined at the April meeting for a presentation in May. <br /> <br />Commissioner Eichenlaub stated he would commit to reading all of the essays. <br /> <br />Commissioner Carey suggested having a committee of 3 Commissioners to read all of the essays <br />and they would determine the top 30 essays for the entire Commission to read and rank. <br /> <br />Youth Commissioners Cederberg and Hansel said they would read the essays. <br /> <br />Commissioner Dailey stated she would be on the committee. <br /> <br />Commissioner Slade stated the rubric looked good. There may not need to be changes until they <br />start applying it to the essays. <br /> <br />Ms. Curti stated if the committee decides that there should be changes to the rubric for the final <br />review by the Commission then they can do that at the March meeting. She stated all identifying <br />information will be removed from the essays. <br /> <br /> <br />d.Collaboration with Roseville Area High School <br /> <br /> <br />Ms. Curti stated there would be a meeting January 25 to discuss plans for the One World Multi- <br />Cultural event and the Commission is invited to attend. The event will be April 26. They are <br />requesting assistance from the Commission with set-up and cleanup. They did ask if the HRC <br />would have a table at the event. <br /> <br />Commissioner Slade stated she would try to attend. <br /> <br /> <br />
