Two Announcements

 

The President's Evaluation will be undertaken at the college on Wednesday, May 9th, and Thursday, May 10th.  An outside consultant will be visiting focus groups.  Feedback will be anonymous.

 

At the last meeting it was agreed that a subcommittee would meet with Vice Chancellor Mary Lee.  She now has to have all information on our facilities ready to go to the May 9th Board Meeting.  Therefore, she will be calling the President's Office to set up an earlier date.  The subcommittee of Nabeel Barakat, Sally Fasteau, Jim Stanbery, Sam Sandt, three vice presidents and one student will be notified as soon as the new date is arranged.

 

Approval of Vision, Mission, Strategic Goals and KPI's

 

Dr. Hudson distributed a revised draft with a new format whereby all components were together rather than on separate sheets.  The Strategies and Goals were approved at the last PAC Meeting.  For today’s meeting the KPI’s would be discussed.  She also presented that same information up on the screen so that all members could look at the mission and each goal, one by one.

Continued Discussion of Governance Structure

 

 

Mr. Stanbery distributed the Summary of Governance Structure Retreat Results, which were worked up during spring recess on Monday, April 9th.  Ten faculty members worked on the project.  The results were discussed prior to PAC at the Academic Senate Meeting.  There is concern about the governance structure and how it will truly work together.  The Senate will be meeting again on April 26th and invites other constituencies to attend.  It was even suggested that an outside facilitator be invited to come, such as someone from the EAP.  However, there were only two persons from other constituencies and it was decided it would not be appropriate for them to attend.

 

There is concern from the Student Services division as to the high number of faculty representatives recommended by the Senate on their committees.  Nothing concrete was arrived at after a lengthy discussion.

 

On May 4th Linda Collins from the State Academic Senate will be visiting in the afternoon to look over the latest governance structure and serve as facilitator in the ongoing discussions.
