The proposed membership is as follows:

6 Faculty members assigned to the Computer Coordinating Committee

6 Faculty members assigned to the Technology Master Planning Committee

1 previous Academic Technology Coordinator (3 years)

After some discussion, there was overall agreement that the committee should be a Senate committee chaired by a Senator.

The task force shall also develop criteria to assess the impact on learning culture as well as assessing and evaluating the outcomes of the committee’s efforts.

Discussion followed on the proposal, and it was suggested that perhaps this should be an on-going committee rather than a task force.

Also discussed was whether there is even a need for this committee or task force. These issues can be addressed at the departmental level or in the Institutional Review Committee. It was suggested that we wait until the Strategic Planning Council looks at the Strategic Plan during its Implementation Review process, raise the issue again there, and get some direction at that time on whether this committee is necessary.

Motion 6 MSC Dowd, Dolan: To extend the meeting.

June, 2004, Courses: Steve Spear explained some difficulties the Earth Sciences department has encountered by the lack of advertising for intersession courses. The department offers some courses early in June and in the past those courses have been listed in the summer schedule. This causes problems because registration for summer classes begins May 6^th, allowing only 3 weeks to generate enrollment. A difficult situation was avoided in the past because those courses were advertised in the spring. Now that advertising has been eliminated, there is no way to promote these courses and thus generate enrollment. Currently, intersession classes offered in January are listed in the fall catalog, but intersession courses offered before summer school are not included in the spring schedule.

Motion 7 MSC Spear, Levy: Move the issue of June, 2004, Courses to Action.

Motion 8 MSC Spear, Laughlin: The Faculty Senate recommends that courses offered after the spring semester but before the start of the regular summer session be listed in the Spring Schedule of Classes.

There was discussion on the cost of advertising. With only 16 or 17 pages of advertising in the schedule, cutting it out does not save a significant amount of money, particularly when there is a loss in enrollment because these classes aren’t being advertised and students don’t know about them.

This will be presented for Senate Action on May 12, 2003.

Budget Review: Chris Barkley reported that updated versions of the Budget Reduction Plan with ranked lists from each of the councils are available in the Senate office.

Strategic Planning

Council: Reporting on the April 28^th Strategic Planning Council meeting, Bonnie Ann Dowd reported that it was announced that the initial budget is expected to be available for review on May 14^th. Discussion items on the council’s agenda for future meetings include:

May 13^th: The Annual Implementation Plan

May 20^th: Action may be taken on recommendations made by some of the planning councils.

Also, depending upon the budget situation, it may be necessary for SPC to meet during the course of the summer. Bonnie presented tables prepared by Jerry Patton identifying the mid-year and proposed council cuts and their relationship to the total budget. The actual budget cuts necessary will not be known until mid-May so the proposed cuts are based upon a best case reduction estimate.

Discussion also occurred on the Supplemental Early Retirement Plan (SERP). If 20 faculty members retire, the net savings for the district will be $137,000 per year for five years. It was reported that we should know how many faculty will take advantage of the SERP by mid-May. Retirees over the minimum of 20 will yield more savings for the district.

Statewide Academic

Senate Resolutions: Chris Barkley reported that she attended the Spring Session of the Statewide Academic Senate on May 1 – 3. Copies of the resolutions are available in the Senate office. She provided the following report:

· There was a vote in favor of formulating a Statewide Political Action Committee using the existing organizations of FACCC, the unions, and the academic senate to become more proactive and get our message before the legislature and governor in a much stronger way.

· There was a referral of the question of “Equity in Funding” of the various colleges to the Executive Committee.

· The raising of the English and Math requirement was also referred to the Executive Committee. Some breakout sessions on this issue will occur at the fall session.

· A compromise came about within the Consultation Council relating to full-time faculty obligation and our desire to get to the 75/25.

· There was a vote to Professionalize the part-time faculty.

· There was a vote to support the CAN Numbering System.

· Breakout sessions will be scheduled for the fall session on creating a Student Equity Plan.

Relating to Curriculum issues discussed at the session, Teresa Laughlin added that it was recommended at the Statewide’ meeting that a protocol exist at each institution for Program deletions. Teresa has found that no such protocol exists at Palomar so she will work on a protocol relating to Program deletions next year.

Other: Joe Stanford reported that there are plans to cut the Youth Chorale and the entire Saturday Morning Orchestra Program, which includes approximately 150 young people. This is occurring because some of the districts in the north have been “double dipping” into the state coffers because they were offering classes in the department and also in the high school curriculum and claiming money for both of them. As a result, regulations have been created regarding teaching young people. He asked for Faculty Senate support in presenting a resolution opposing the proposed cuts.

This will be presented for Senate Action on May 12, 2003.

SERP Orientation: Mario Mendez reported that he attended the SERP Orientation meeting on Thursday, May 1^st. There are currently 18 faculty members interested in retiring under the plan. It was reported that there were another 10 faculty members not at the meeting who are seriously considering the SERP.

Summer Availability: Chris Barkley asked Senators to provide information on their availability over the summer months in case any issues arise that need the attention of the Senate.

Other: Chris Barkley reported that a committee (consisting of Bonnie Dowd, Maria Miller and Anne Voth) has been formed to plan a celebration on campus for Diane Lutz acknowledging her years of service as a dean and vice president. Donations will be solicited for the cost of the event, a gift, and a recognition plaque for Diane. Chris will be sending out an e-mail to faculty alerting them and the event will take place probably the first week of summer school. Those interested in contributing funds should contact Bonnie Dowd, or Anne Voth.

Other: Sue Norton announced that Lise Telson has accepted the position of Vice President for Student Services at Saddleback College.

Thank You: Because this is her last meeting as Senate President, Chris Barkley thanked Senators for their cooperation and assistance during her tenure.

ADJOURNMENT: The meeting was adjourned at 3:31 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Bonnie Ann Dowd, Secretary
