Announcements Space is available for part-time instructors in the 1900 building (formerly the Counseling Division). Instructors should note that the area is not secure, so please dont leave personal items or student records in the space. A 40F key is needed; see John DuBois for a key. Faculty are still needed to sit on the ad hoc faculty development committee, chaired by Pat Hyland. Senators should send names of interested faculty to Dolores. Dolores will be going to Florence for the Study Abroad Program in Spring. The Senate leadership will change once again for that quarter. Senate elections for president and vice president (for 08-09) will be held in Spring as well. Approval of Minutes The January 14, 2008, minutes were approved as amended Consent Calendar 1. The following faculty were approved to serve on committees: Jerry Cellilo, Debra Lew: Counseling Hiring Committee Sandi Watkins: Senate Elections Committee Action & Information EOPS Matais Pouncil attended the Senate meeting to thank senators for faculty support. He reminded faculty of the services available to students through EOPS: book service, student educational plans, tutoring, laptop loan program, and calculator loan program. He explained the CARE Program for single parents; services include transportation and meal tokens for students. In thanking faculty for their support in filling out student progress reports, he explained that these reports are necessary to address the state requirement that the EOPS Program monitor students progress. CAC/APM Report Dolores announced the following from the Chancellors Advisory Committee and Academic and Professional Matters committee meetings: Enrollment in the District is up 1.5% net from Summer 07. The district intends to increase non-resident fees by $8.00/unit. Board policies will be voted on February 8. Any further comments need to be sent to Dolores as soon as possible. Charles Allen presented a sustainability plan. A sustainability/facilities committee is being created, and two 17Թ faculty are needed to sit on this committee, which will discuss issues such as what to purchase and how to obtain LEEDs certification. Interested faculty should contact Dolores. Bob Barr will send out a district-wide survey on whether faculty are interested in exploring a new calendar. Senators should tell faculty to expect the survey in the next two weeks. Please let faculty know that their opinions are very important. The District Academic Senate President will attend Senate meetings at De Anza and 17Թ in Spring to determine each colleges positions on issues to be voted on in Plenary. This will eliminate the need for joint senate meetings. The District is still working on the textbook policy. One issue is that faculty should not be able to profit from materials made only for district use. The new textbook policy regarding open education resources and faculty profits will be presented to the board soon. Brian Murphy (De Anza) and Dolores will work together on this policy. Tenure Review Coordinator Dolores announced that the Tenure Review Coordinator position will be re-opened to follow process set out in the contract. Applicants will be interviewed by a committee made up of Tom Strand (FA), Dolores, (AS), and Pat Hyland (Presidents designee), and recommended name(s) will be sent to Judy Miner for final decision. Senators should inform faculty of the position and increased responsibilities of the position. Applications are due in Pat Hylands office by February 8. Scholarship Committee & AS Scholarships Dolores announced that she met with Kevin Harrall, Director of Financial Aid regarding the re-organized scholarship committee. The committee will need 10 faculty to participate. Senators should recruit faculty to serve on the committee; names need to be submitted by the Feb 11 meeting. The Senate budget allows for 1-2 additional scholarships of $1000. Senators should talk to their constituents about spending this money from the senate dues account. Non-Credit Expansion The state has recently changed the funding format for non-credit courses; these courses are now funded at higher levels, which means there is more money available to colleges. Judy Miner has created a new non-credit division, with Denise Swett as the lead administrator. The division will be staffed by part-time faculty. The plan is set for Summer 08 implementation. Senators expressed concern about faculty involvement in curriculum development and hiring for this division. Most courses are in the work force areas, and these courses have already been approved at the state level. The new division would have its own curriculum committee. Dolores will invite Denise Swett to a future Senate meeting to hear senators concerns that non-credit courses are a good representation of 17Թϒs quality of education. Dolores Davison adjourned the meeting at 3:40 pm. JK^ ? M  N]?9S3[%:Y\Ͽh Uh UCJOJQJaJhRXh UCJOJQJaJhRXh U5CJOJQJaJ"hRXh U5>*CJOJQJaJ%JK^   > ?
