    Transportation Research Board 2013 annual report The mission of the Transportation Research Board is to provide leadership in transportation innovation and progress through research and information exchange, conducted within a setting that is objective, interdisciplinary, and multimodal. The Board’s varied activities annually engage about 7,000 engineers, scientists, and other transportation researchers and practitioners from the public and private sectors and academia, all of whom contribute their expertise in the public interest. The program is supported by state transportation departments, federal agencies including the component administrations of the U.S. Department of Transportation, and other organizations and individuals interested in the development of transportation. The Transportation Research Board was organized in 1920 and is one of six major divisions of the National Research Council, which serves as an independent adviser to the federal government and others on scientific and technical questions of national importance. The National Research Council is jointly administered by the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine.

  • From the Executive Vice President
    From the Executive Vice President Following a long winter of unprecedented cold and snow, spring has finally arrived. As we begin to enjoy the beautiful weather on campus and prepare for University Commencement, I want to take a moment to thank all of the Facilities and Operations employees who worked amid the freezing temperatures and record snowfall to keep the University community safe and comfortable this winter. Your efforts were truly remarkable and representative of our standard of excellence. You can read more about how our employees worked together to “weather the storm” on page 7 of this edition of Off the CUF – our quarterly newsletter to communicate to and showcase our amazing employees and the important work we do to support the core educational and research mission of the University. It is important to note that this is the first edition of Off the CUF since the announcement of the new Columbia University Facilities and News for the Employees of Operations organization. In fact, it was only a little over three months ago, on January Columbia University Facilities 14th, that Robert Kasdin announced the integration of University Facilities, Campus Services, and Strategic Communications, creating the new Columbia University Facilities and Operations and Operations organization. Yet, even in the short period of time we have been working together as one team, we have accomplished much. While this is certainly not an exhaustive VOLUME 16 | SPRING 2014 list, some examples of our work together thus far include: Contents Strengthening Employee Engagement • We held meet and greet sessions with all of the new departments that now report 3 Facilities and Operations to me.

EDRS PRICE MF-$0.76 HC-$4.43 Plus Postage DESCRIPTORS *Cooperative Programs; *Educational Radio; Higher Education; *Programing (Broadcast); *Questionnaires; Shared Services; Statistical Data; Tables (Data) IDENTIFIERS Cooperative Program Tape Networks ABSTRACT Over 200 noncommercial radio stations responded to a survey to gather data on the characteristics of member stations and to sample the opinion of nonmembers toward a cooperative network concept. A second survey of 18 networks sought to gather indepth information on network operation. Results showed that 22.2 percent of the stations surveyed were participating in program cooperatives, and over 79 percent felt that network participation would be beneficial. It was concluded that the cooperative program tape network should continue in order to fulfill specialized programing needs. A copy of the two questionnaires, the letter of transmittal, and the mailing list is appended. A list of the networks that participated in the study, 12 statistical tables, and a 20-item bibliography are included.
