PTO Requests
In order to speed up the processing of PTO forms and reduce the potential for missing hard copy faxes, Michelle has approved an alternate system for requesting PTO. Now there are two options:
1. Send an email to me for approval with the electronic version of the PTO request form completed and attached. If sent via email from your Hannan email account, your email will count as your “signature”. Michelle will print my email approval and the attached PTO request form for payroll purposes. I’m attaching the electronic form and it is also located in the Finance Forms section of the shared files. This is the preferred method.
or
2. Continue to send a hard copy of your signed PTO request form to me for approval via mail, fax, or hand delivered.
One of the things that has come to our attention is a bit of confusion on how PTO usage is printed on your pay stubs. The biggest challenge is when we receive or approve PTO retroactively (ie when you are sick) and the retroactive approval doesn’t reach Michelle until after payroll has been submitted for the pay period in question. What happens in this situation is that she is able to note your PTO usage on the pay period directly following the pay period in which it was actually used. Unfortunately there is not a current way to note that this is “retro PTO”. In order to further clarify Michelle will be a guest at our July 11th SC Team Meeting and will give a presentation on how to read your pay stub to make sure you are well informed of your compensation, benefits, and PTO. Thanks Michelle!

THE ELLEN KAYROD GALLERY PRESENTS:
Tom Parish
May 3 – June 21, 2013
Opening Reception
Friday, May 10, 2013
5:00-8:00 pm
Born in Hibbing, Minnesota, after a year at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Va., Tom transferred to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Selected by the faculty for a sojourn in Europe, Parish visited Paris and Florence before returning to pursue a graduate degree at the University of North Dakota. After receiving his MA, he began his teaching career at the Joliet Township High School and College in Illinois. He then taught in St. Louis for three years before joining the faculty of Wayne State University in Detroit, where he remained for more than 35 years and is now Professor Emeritus.
Talking about his paintings of Venice on exhibit at the Kayrod Gallery, “In 1986, I visited Berlin and Venice. My work since that trip has centered on Venice. Shirley and I go to Venice at least once a year for a month or more. When we are there I carry a small digital camera, my sketch book. Back in my Detroit studio I edit these photos with the help of a magnifying glass. Each painting results from my imagination and these photo groups. I am painting compositions.”
Reviewing the trajectory of his painting career, Parish recalls the advice of Hobson Pittman, one of his instructors at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. “He said, ‘You must paint the things that you know and love. That is all there is to do.’ . . . . “ you know, he was right.”
Gallery hours are Monday – Thursday by appointment, and Fridays 9 am-7pm. The Gallery is closed weekends. For more information about the gallery contact Pam Halladay at phalladay@Hannan.org or visit www.Hannan.org
