- Capital Campaign funding - using one-time funds to address high cost items that impact the General Fund each year; list put forward and discussion at Chancellor's Exec Staff
- Dual Enrollment leadership team presenting to Chancellor's Exec tomorrow to educate the District what dual enrollment needs and specifically those of ARC
- Fully standing that project up with full commitment of leadership and staffing
- Hiring underway with specialists for HomeBases

- Front and center has been vaccine mandate which went fairly well
- Continuing to work with staff and students related to mandate
- Spring 22 schedule out today
- Fall 21 - 9% of course inventory was face to face; Sp 22 - closer to 30% of course inventory to be offered face to face
- Unsure what enrollment in Sp22 will look like

- Questions on how to communicate with faculty when the student gets sick or has a personal challenge
- Faculty looking for alternate ways for students to participate thus our move towards Hyflex; will be classroom specific; on the minds of instructional faculty
- Based on policies, there's no such list of excused and/or unexcused absences; would like instructional faculty to be aware of that; students should not have to reveal personal information in order to beg/plead for an extension or ??
- Give the faculty permission not to have to be so stringent
- Training can be provided to faculty but probably won't have a 100% faculty participation
- Will trauma-informed care touch on this; i.e., it's traumatic for a student to have to relive the experience repeatedly by having to contact multiple faculty members explaining a traumatic experience (i.e., domestic violence)
- Example, was hospitalized with Covid and one professor asked for documentation of hospitalization which contained some personal information
- Not a wide-spread quick fix by Spring semester

- Library will open Mondays - Thursdays and a few Saturdays
- Expanding hours of Welcome and Support Center along with LRC
- Working with Koue on opening Student Center for grab/go food service
- Counseling Center will not be open but counselors will be available in Welcome & Support Center
- Final information on hours and services will be shared once it's finalized

- Presented by Melanie in Adam's absence
- Some work fell behind and resulted in last minute scrambling
- Presentation to BOT this month with a focus on HomeBases
- Team will review ISER and evidence provided
- Team then visits in October 2022
- A huge thank you to those who picked up the slack and reviewed in detail over the past two weeks; greatly appreciate the partnerships
- Big picture - our processes and procedures are sound
- ACCJC moved from punitive action to being supportive of colleges
- Need to have a post mortem of our process
- We had great bones for developing ISER but may not have had the capacity or time for implementation
- Still time to review and comment; doesn't go to ACCJC until December or January
- Having candid conversations so we won't be here again

- Past two convocations have been a little rocky
- Owe college community a thoughtful program
- Planning document produced and has been initially reviewed
- Three planning sessions already scheduled prior to end of the semester

- Team brought together and planned for on-ground HomeBases
- Covid happened and HomeBases went virtually
- Now there's a need to plan for both virtual and on-ground
- Jeff and Frank lead Homebase resource team to reflect on the work accomplished and work for the future
- Possible further discussions with program pathways group next semester
- Need to fit HomeBases, Program Pathways, Areas, and need to engage in further discussion about how all these mesh together
- Need a workable structure so fantastic work can be accomplished

- About 11 full-time faculty positions likely available to hire in Spring 22
- Huge gap between what we need and what we'll get
- For manager positions, need to make great hires
- Need to be certain we can provide assistance with gaps in competency, etc.
- We offer great resources to new faculty but don't provide resources to existing faculty
- A real gap exists between the curriculum offered to new faculty and existing faculty having no idea what's covered in that curriculum
- Perhaps use existing resources to offer pre-NFA faculty the opportunity to grow and experience something new
- Provide some leadership cultivation
- Peer review team members may not be connected to NFA curriculum and could be detrimental to achieving tenure
