As this was the second year that the part-time equivalency was defeated, it was suggested that the Senate not repeat this amendment next year, unless the issue had an advocate in the senate to bring it forward. Full-time faculty were asked to submit their committee responsibilities to the Senate so we may update our records. After a quorum was reached, the minutes were approved. The consent calendar was approved, with Carolyn Brown replacing Mark Anderson on Athony Gattos TRC. District senate president De Anza has taken action on the item of district senate president. Paul Starer and Dan Mitchell, the latter as nominee for district senate president, discussed the history and role of district senate president. The district senate president leads the senates at the plenary session in fall and spring. These duties are spelled out in the May 23rd agenda as a draft resolution. Compensation for the position was discussed. Since colleges (districts) are required to have a district senate president, it was suggested that the district, colleges, or alternating colleges would pay the presidents compensation. A question was asked if a college wasnt able to sponsor a district president in a given year. A college could nominate a candidate from the other college. All faculty can comment on the district senate president nominee. Tradition has been that former presidents would be nominated, but any former (or current) officer could also be nominated. Selection of district senate president should be straightforward, as most former senate officers are well known to the faculty body. Dan Mitchell addressed the senate about his tenure as senate president at De Anza, where he has been president for two years. Dan discussed his participation at plenary representing the district as district senate president. Paul Starer represented the district as district senate president from 2004 2005, and at both fall and spring senate plenary sessions. Dan mentioned that questions about the district senate president decision-making would be very rare. A motion to approve adoption of the district senate selection process, as specified in the May 23rd agenda attachment, was approved unanimously. Dan Mitchell announced that Lydia Hein and Ben Klein wee elected senate president and vice president at De Anza. De Anzas senate will vote to ratify Dan Mitchell on June 6th. GE Curriculum issues. The senate next discussed rolling GE into campus curriculum committee. Senators discussed feedback they received from their constituents. Some reported questions about the motivation for this proposed change. Was it structural, and or a process issue, or was it a personal issue. At curriculum meetings, representation has been an issue. Folding the two committees together would alleviate some of that problem. Some committee members leave early, while others arrive late. Some divisions have a difficulty getting participation for that committee. For the most part, next years GE activities will be light, and a good time to try out a pilot study. Comments from many of the faculty were that process and structure was needed more than a change in overall organization. Others spoke that a change in structure would cause a change in the organization, including participants, which might help. Senators from various divisions requested a delay in the vote until the June 6th meeting. A motion to table the issue until fall 2005 failed. A motion to table the issue until June 6th passed. Bernie Day addressed the senate regarding articulation issues. She suggested that we join Ellen Hancock in stating disapproval with CSU pulling out of CAN. Bernie mentioned the conflict between CSUs and UCs over the CAN issue. The academic senate may wish to voice support for state financial support for the ASSIST process. Additionally, Bernie suggested that academic senate ask the CSUs to honor CAN, and not focus on LDPT. Transfer and course comparability is a very large and important issue, and the state legislature is looking to the community colleges to offer some solution. Could articulation take place without the CAN infrastructure in place? Bernie offered to help craft language on a response from 17Թ academic senate. Overload issue Anne Paye, Rich Hansen, and Faith Milonas. FA addressed the senate on the issue of overloads. Article 7 in the FA Agreement specifies that part-time faculty are limited to 60% of a full load during the academic year. Full-time faculty are limited to two overloads per quarter, unless no other faculty are available to teach those assignments. These rules are district wide, meaning that load include assignments at both 17Թ and De Anza Colleges. Not everyone has the same understanding of the agreement as what is actually practiced. In the case of some classes with a load factor of 0.1111, six overloads a year would exceed 60% of load, but still meet the two-class limit. Looking further into the issue, double-loads and overloads are not exactly described in the FA agreement. Resetting seat counts has also been an issue in some divisions. Maximum seat count is an issue that is protected within the FA agreement. Double loads have been an ambiguous practice. For instance, at De Anza, part-time faculty are paid much less than full-time faculty for double and triple overloaded classes. FA is beginning to work through these problems. Codifying a 60% overload limit (two classes per quarter) would be a logical and reasonable limit, but changing this practice overnight might be a problem. FA will look carefully into these issues. FA could not determine how full-time pay for double loads are handled, either from division to division or across the colleges. FA then discussed some of the recent issues with tenure review committees. TRCs should have as many content experts as possible. Should the department chair be part of the TRC? Questions about faculty being asked to do special demonstrations were mentioned as a violation of the terms specified in J1. Statistical conforming to grading is not part of the evaluation process. Only dialog in a classroom evaluation should be admitted. FA reminded the senate that TRC training needs to occur on the scheduled intervals for a committee to be valid. It was suggested that some TRC training could occur on district day. Another question was whether deans are formally trained in the process, and if all faculty are formally trained in the TRC process. Additionally, at large faculty may not always feel that their contributions are important, but many senators spoke about how they felt valued when filling at-large roles. Finally, Rich Hansen spoke about part-time parity. He indicated the district really didnt want to hear any more of this issue. He went through a scheme where part-time faculty could have access to some of the pay associated with activities full-time faculty usually perform, such as committee work, course development, and other activities important to the college and its divisions. In this discussion was the continuing issue that full-time faculty work, which includes professional activities for the college, is not clearly defined. Committee work is just one instance of professional contributions. Last, the senate passed a resolution of support for Bill Tinsley and Roxanne Mendrinos, who retired in 2004 and will retire in 2005, respectively, for their years of service and contributions to the senate. The meeting was adjourned at 4:30 p.m.  Fb9LMO \t@ Z j " ~ 0#< ')XZ*-+-H* >*B*ph B*ph5H*CJPJ 5B*phOJQJ 5OJQJ OJPJQJ55CJCJ?
