Transcripts Ms. Julie Byrnes clarified the function of the clearinghouse service that the Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE) uses to verify transcripts. The NSHE has subscribed to this service, so outside entities must use this service to verify the degrees of GBC students. People use to be able to call our office directly and verify over the phone and we could provide that information over the phone since it is directory information. Now, we must refer all inquiries for degree confirmation to national clearinghouse, who charges $2 - $5 for the information. We were told we cannot verify degrees of our own students. If you mail or fax in your request, it does not cost anything. GBC students can still get their transcripts from us. Dr. Killpatrick wondered if the other Presidents were aware of this. He would like to see the system contract. This wasnt the presentation when they presented the National Clearinghouse registry. Classified Council Update The GBC barbeque hosted by Classified Council will be this Saturday, June 4 from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Elko Park behind the museum. Classified Council will be announcing the Outstanding Classified Council members: Pat Loper and Annie Ulrich. SGA Update - No report. Great Basin Trail Alliance Carl Diekhans reported that the Great Basin Trail Alliance is working with the BLM and the US Forest Service on access to government land. There is a horde of privately owned land that surrounds BLM land in the Ely area and the Alliances primary concern is that access to public land is being denied. GBC owns land by Ely that borders federal land. We need to develop a road from GBC land to the federal land for public access. We would provide access, but would not hold any liability. Presidents Council would we be interested in meeting with them to talk about this. John Rice stated that Elko Convention & Visitors Authority has been working on access issues too. Possible Assessment Instruments Dr. Mike McFarlane stated that GBC needs to administer institutional assessment tests. There is a test that we could administer for approximately $6,000. This test would measure critical thinking, social studies, math, reading, writing, etc and it tabulates and prepares a national comparison with other community colleges. GBC would be the first one in Nevada to do this test. This would be in addition to what we are currently doing. Dr. Linda Uhlenkott stated that Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities is already impressed with our assessment of general education. We will bring back this topic for next week and invite Dr. Garry Heberer. Miscellaneous John Rice and Pat Anderson will be working together with the Tulip policy. A recommendation is to put an insurance requirement check box on the Room Use Form. There will be a trial run of a 1 credit GBC orientation class next spring. Dorothy Moore is going to target 10 housing students for a model orientation this fall. Looking at assigning every faculty member students to advice. Eventually, every faculty member will have students to advice. We will make this an agenda item for further discussion at another Presidents Council meeting in the future and invite Julie Byrnes. John Rice reported that a final copy of the general brochure with all changes and revisions has been sent to the publisher. The publisher will make a final proof for our approval before printing. Carl Diekhans announced that for the Elko Campus all DPOs are being collected and spending has stopped. You may get DPOs from Mike McFarlanes office, Carl Diekhans office, and Lynn Mahlbergs office for emergency purchases only. For non-state accounts, grant accounts, and lab money, have your assistant see if there is money in the accounts and get the DPO from the appropriate office. We still have travel expenses that are legitimate. The DPO packs will be returned on July 1.
