To the Honorable, the Legislature:
We are pleased to report that the 1998 Summer Affirmative Action Intern Program (SAAIP) was a success. This summer, 121 students were placed in 27 State agencies and University campuses throughout the State of Wisconsin. We appreciate your commitment and support in providing racial/ethnic minorities, women, and students with disabilities with valuable training, experience and exposure to state government that will enhance their career employment possibilities.
The 1998 SAAIP Report is enclosed. The report includes statistical data, evaluation results, and recommendations for program improvements. These recommendations were based on comments received from student interns and their supervisors, State Agency and University Affirmative Action Officers, SAAIP Coordinators, Personnel Directors, Department Heads, and University Chancellors. We expect to implement many of these recommendations for the 1998 Summer Affirmative Action Intern Program.
If you have any additional comments or suggestions to improve the program for next year, please contact Claire Dehnert, SAAIP Coordinator, at (608) 267-1005 or email
cdehnert@mail.state.wi.us.
Thank you for your support and cooperation. We look forward to continued success in 1999.
Sincerely,
jon e. litscher
