4. It was suggested via the Academic Forum that a team be formed to look at the process of completing graduation checks. Maggie Myers discussed the timeline and capabilities of the Datatel graduation audit. Datatel/Poise incompatibility was explained. It was determined additional training needed to be provided faculty to better utilize the system.
Questions regarding faculty workload, faculty input/control into who can graduate from a specific program, the number of “checks points” needed, and faculty unfamiliarity with students to be graduated, were discussed.
A team to look at the current process was suggested. Members would include: Linda Verceles (dean), Nancy Rush (registrar), Jan Cook (general education faculty), Patti Ross (career faculty), Maggie Myers/Sherri Clark (student development). Individuals will be invited to participate by President Yowell.
5. The AQIP survey was discussed and Criteria 4, Valuing People, and Criteria
5, Leading and Communicating, were those selected by staff most immediately in need of attention. These two will be in addition to Criteria 1, Helping Students Learn.
A second survey will be sent to staff within the next week asking for suggestions of specific project categories within the three Criteria.
6. President Yowell discussed the Dallas, CQIN team and their learning/
application activities of the year. That group has spearheaded the “Happy Hours” and Breakfasts with the President, opportunities this year. The Core Values Forums have built upon the employee core values discussions from interaction with organizations studied in Dallas. This specific team will be bringing closure to their work in mid-February. A new team addressing technology and learning issues will be selected for next year’s benchmarking emphasis.
7. The Strategic Leadership Forum was explained, as it interrelates with other
College CQI initiatives. Dr. Yowell explained it was born of a “perceived need for leadership succession planning on this campus.” He played a key role in establishing the organization and promoting its first meetings on cultivating leadership. That group is currently working on a project for our campus.
8. Other: Dennis Myers asked if the development of a Student Help
Desk/Internet Café concept fell under the auspices of the CQI Steering Committee. This would be supported with recently received grants. It was determined it did not.
Meeting times will be changed to 10:00 – noon, second Friday of each month.
Next meeting: March 8, 10:00 to Noon
