raised questions regarding the proposed language, which omitted questions about Teamwork

Assessment Committee. The Assessment Committee will review the proposed language, and

bring any modifications for CPC approval on June 23, 2014.

VI. Reports A. President

1. As graduation approaches, President Herzek appreciates the hard work of campus employees to

get our students “to the finish line.” He is very proud of the CPC and all of our colleagues on

campus. There has been a lot of change during the past year, and the college community has

done great work.

2. President Herzek has held final interviews for several faculty positions, with several more to come in the weeks ahead. The hiring committees did a fantastic job in selecting very strong candidates.

B. ASO 1. G. Gonzales discussed recent ASO activities. ASO students and staff held a “Thank You Party”

where they wrote thank you cards to campus employees.

2. On the afternoon of the graduation ceremony, a party will be held in the quad area of the Science Building. Students and employees will have an opportunity to take photos with the campus mascots, Sammy the Seahawk and Reggie the Alligator.

C. Special Committees/Task Forces 1. Web Standards

a. I. Clarke discussed the campus web designer’s (Jerry McClellan) role in developing the

new website layout. The proposed website design will eventually be brought to campus

committees for feedback.

b. The web designer is not vetting content. It is the responsibility of the person requesting

changes to be careful about what is posted. It would be useful to have a conversation

about who has the authority to recommend changes to the website. (Example: Many

people request changes to the LAHC home page, but the IT Department should not be

responsible for making those decisions).

c. A. Tomlinson encouraged each area to review its own section of the website to ensure that information is relevant and up-to-date.

2. Student Success Umbrella/ATD 3. Accreditation

a. E. Joiner met with the IT Department and the Accreditation Steering Committee to discuss the campus website. An up-to-date website is an important priority for our upcoming accreditation visit. Everyone needs to review their sections of the website to ensure accuracy.

D. CPC Standing Committee Reports 1. Academic Affairs Cluster Committee 2. Student Services Cluster Committee

a. The committee did not meet this month, but meetings will resume in the summer. The

committee will evaluate Program Reviews to ensure that all information is current.

b. The division is creating a master handbook for managers. It will include information on

procedures within each office, as well how the departments work together. Sample

forms will be included. This will be helpful for new staff, faculty, and administrators.

c. Mica Murillo stepped down as Articulation Officer. Elizabeth Colocho will soon begin serving in that role.

3. Administrative Services Cluster Committee

3

a. The committee met on May 20th. They discussed the Human Resources hiring plan.

There is a suggestion that we move from a one-year plan to a multi-year plan instead.

b. A brief discussion took place regarding staffing levels for Maintenance and Operation. 4. Budget Committee

a. The campus is nearly finished with all purchasing and payroll for this fiscal year. It will be about one month until we know the final dollar amount of our expenditures. We are on target to meet our goal. The committee is beginning to prepare for next year’s budget and expenditures.

5. Human Resources Committee 6. Work Environment Committee 7. Staff Development Committee 8. Technology Advisory Committee

a. The committee met last month, and the meeting was well-attended. The committee has a goal of improving communication regarding the process of purchasing technology. Everyone who attended the Power Users group training has had very positive things to say. This training was designed to show instructors how to use all classroom technology without relying on the IT Department. It was suggested that this training be expanded to faculty and staff members in the new buildings.

9. Student Success Evidence Committee a. A meeting will take place tomorrow afternoon. The committee will review data

elements for the Student Equity Plan and the Student Success and Support Plan. Much of the data overlaps, so it will be possible to use some data in both reports. The committee will also perform a self-assessment.

10. Committees of Academic Senate a. There will be a new chair for the Faculty Hiring Priorities Committee (FHPC) beginning in

the fall. Everyone is encouraged to get involved with campus committee meetings, and

it is important to attend on a regular basis.

VII. Good of the Order A. The CPC Priority Ballot will be sent out to voting members. This topic will appear on the agenda of the

next CPC Meeting.

B. The graduation ceremony will be broadcast on cable television, and will also stream live on our website.

VIII. Adjourn Meeting adjourned at 2:25 PM.
