Update changes to our Roster and the Charter? BJ Snowden 10
-We discussed the name change for the CTL Director position on our roster, and came to consensus on Professional Development Faculty Representative
-We discussed eliminating the Classified Programmer position, we are down from 3 programmers to 1. The assistant has worked with this position on the needs of the group, so we decided to make a position called Classified Liaison to assist with these directives.
-Both items were passed with consensus voting.
Annual Unit Planning and Program Review Cycle BJ Snowden 10
Academic Senate has been collaborating with our Program Review team to re-examine the current timelines for Program Review and Annual Unit Planning. While we work on realigning the timeline, we will be excusing your Program Review cohort from Annual Unit Planning this year.
