at professional activities - how is your institution's policy on this
defined? Such activities would range from attendance at/participation
in local or non-local meetings to editing newsletters to researching
and writing for publication to.....
A colleague who works for a state agency related to history/archives
is interested in what criteria are used, e.g. - position you hold,

in the topic - and I'll forward them.
