Pahrump Discussion Paul Killpatrick reported that he and Mike McFarlane will be traveling to Pahrump tomorrow to meet with the interim principal of the high school, who is also the assistant superintendent. We will be sending other people down in the next couple weeks. Linda Uhlenkott suggested that a committee should be created consisting of faculty, classified, and staff employees. This is a big change for GBC, and we need input from everyone. Danny Gonzales said there are a number of people who would like to be more active in the process. If we can engage the campus groups now, it will enable us to tighten up the MOUs. John Rice said the TEC model is valuable model to use because of the number of experts that it created. It provided the institution with a base of knowledge that is very valuable. Linda would like to start meeting next week. The committee will be called the Nye County Transition Committee. Community College Conference Paul Killpatrick wanted to ensure that everyone knows about the community college conference on April 28 and whether GBC will be doing a presentation. Linda Uhlenkott, Kevin Laxalt, and Cindy Hyslop want to do a WebCT presentation. We are very short on professional development funds this year and would like to tie the conference in with a visit to Pahrump. A notice will come from Mikes office. Strategic Planning Danny Gonzales reported that it is time to update the action plans and the GBC Strategic Plan to include Pahrump. By the end of the semester, each of the areas needs to have a revised action plan. Lynn Mahlberg said the plans should be constantly updated. For those areas who have not already updated their plans, Danny has requested an update from them in a couple of weeks. Danny suggested including the accomplishments, what we are doing now, and where we are going. The reports will be due on April 15, 2006 to Dannys office. Northwest Commission Substantive Change for Pahrump Danny Gonzales reported that GBC will need to do a substantive change because we taking on another branch campus. Therefore, we are looking at an evaluation in April 2007. The evaluators will be looking at the budget among other things. We will probably have to submit to the Board of Regents a request for a new organizational unit. Danny will investigate the code and talk to Mark Ghan for clarification. Master Calendar Mardell Wilkins reported she is still waiting to get important dates to include on the master calendar. She needs deadlines for evaluations, system reports, Regents Awards, tenure, sabbaticals, fees, book orders, etc. She will bring back the Master Calendar on February 28. Honorary Degree Nominations GBCs nominations for the Honorary Baccalaureate Degree are Mr. Todd Hellman and Mr. Al Huber. The community service nominations are Mr. Wes Bowlen and Sue and Wes Dixon. Faculty Senate Update Linda Uhlenkott reported that the meeting with Regent Leavitt went very well. Linda recommended that we remind everyone that we are a community college first. Some people are forgetting that and we should remind them about our mission. Faculty Senate Meeting Update from meeting on February 10: Action Academic Standards proposed, and Senate passed, a policy for transfer to GBC. Details are on the attached sheet. In a roll call vote, Senate passed a motion that students would need to earn 45 upper division credits at GBC with the appropriate GPA to earn an honors designation. The vote was 25 in favor, 17 opposed, and one abstention. Curriculum and Articulation informed Senate that 80 courses were being brought forth for common course numbering changes or for approval as new courses. C & A is using a two-step process: 1) CCN which allows courses provisionally into the catalog without the syllabi being presented at the same meeting and 2) a full review of the course and the syllabus of those courses accepted provisionally. Department Chairs requested that students who complete programs of less than 30 credits be awarded Recognition of Completion. Such a move allows these students to be recorded as completers. (See attached sheet for process.) Information The Bylaws Committee is working on a draft of a shared-governance document. Frank Daniels welcomes volunteers who are willing to read, respond to, and contribute to such a document. So far, these include Annie Ulrich, Susanne Bentley, Jay Larson, Laurie Walsh, Linda Uhlenkott, Frank Daniels (chair), Mardell Wilkins, (bylaws committee member), Scott Nielson, Bonnie Hofland, Teresa Howell, Garry Heberer, and Mary Swetich. It would be good to have someone from administration, student government, and buildings and grounds, as well. Compensation and Benefits brought forward a set of guidelines for determining plus days on faculty contracts. Guidelines will be considered and voted on in the March meeting. The Faculty and Administrative Evaluation committee presented the templates and process for evaluation which is currently being piloted by the English department. Regent James Dean Leavitt visited with Faculty Senate for about half an hour. He spoke briefly first, then took questions from faculty. Policies for Posting Linda Uhlenkott brought up a potential problem we need to address: the updating and posting of official policies onto the web. Mardell will set up a meeting to try to come up with a process that works a little better. Adjunct Faculty Evaluations Danny Gonzales is drafting a policy for adjunct faculty evaluations. The policy for faculty evaluations talks about faculty being evaluated every 5 years and he believes that pertains to adjuncts as well. WNCC tries to evaluate 20% of their adjunct per year. Miscellaneous Paul Killpatrick reported that Robbi Phillips, SGA president, informed him the SGA voted for Nancy Remington to be this years commencement speaker. Lisa Heise reported that the silent auction item that Presidents Council donated looks great. The dinner dance ticket sales are going well. The search committee for the Director position will review applications this Friday. They should start scheduling interviews next week. Carl Diekhans shared the 2005 Annual Report from the bookstore. The average percentage of used books purchased through Follett system wide is 35% while GBCs percentage is 21.7%. Faculty may not fully understand the importance of getting their book orders in on time. Additional reports are coming from Follett and will be distributed to the departments. John Rice CTA video looks good will show it at a future PC meeting as soon as it is available. Career Focus has been in print now for one year. The Recruitment department uses the publication quite a bit and new student enrollments are up. The Presidents Office has been receiving the Alumni cards. Mardell will make a copy of the cards for the Foundation.
