EXECUTIVE REPORTS: KATHY:
a)School of Life Science award for the building b) Scholarship - the
process over the last two years of discussion and analysis of the process, has
developed into a document- Kathy would like us all to look at the document and
make suggestions. Roy mentioned that some
schools would like to run their own scholarship - not within the campus process. Kathy says there might be legal issues
involved. Please bring corrections to Kathy.
Roy states that corrections have been sent multiple times and no changes
have been made. Drafting a standard letter of recommendation form that has some
“check the appropriate box” section
and written section. Brittany discusses the issue is not with the process but
with the accountability of the process being used correctly. Kathy says she
understands - we have a new director of financial aid and the dean of student
services in much more understanding of the faculty concerns - she feels that we
have more administrative support. BOB
URELL: a) Great Shake Out next week -
October 16th at 10:16. This is a drop
and cover drill and then the evacuation of classes drill. Your classes need to be evacuated . Instructions will come through the phone
system. b) Status of Resources Requests:
List of resource requests being approved - now in draft format. First went to deans, then went through
various committees, now at SPAC to see which should be funded. We have a huge list compared to funding
available - this makes the ranking process difficult. The ranked list is on the Academic Senate
website- take a look at it to see the list of resources submitted. Please let Bob or Kathy know if your request
is not listed on the master list . The
amount requested and the type are listed in the next two columns. The next following columns are the funding
sources that could fund the request. The top of each column has a
description- if you click or hover, a
pop up explanation is there. The
spreadsheet will show which are the possible funding sources for each of the
requests. The columns will be populated
by Friday in the final draft - except for the general fund column - will be
used after we try and fund out of the other sources. There is also a column
with a link to each resource request.
Additionally, a column showing how each committee ranked each of the
resources. Of course there is also a
column showing how each request connects to the Strategic Plan and numbered
objectives. This is all the information
that is used to help them when they do the final ranking . This is clearly the most transparent this has
been in long time. (editorial :) BRETT
MCKIM: Academic Affairs- plus minus
issue their biggest discussion as a body - highly divided . Asks for our input. Current legislation and
board policy posted on the forum of the academic senate- take a look. There is no “C-“ ,
legislation dictates. Academic Affairs
will formulate a recommendation and bring it to senate to vote. When I know what this is, we need to talk
about this so your senators can represent the school accurately in a vote. DIANA:
We are at 116 % compliance with ADT’s - thanks everyone
for all their work.
