Hanover Grants Contract A one-year contract has been negotiated with Hanover Grants. The group has experience in researching, writing, and obtaining grant funding. They also have access to contacts with knowledge and experience that are very beneficial to acquiring grants. Hanover Grants will conduct research to indicate strengths and weaknesses of the college. Once the analysis is complete they will then focus on funding opportunities that fit the needs of the college. Participation from the entire college is instrumental in the success of the project. GBCs role will be to provide content, appointment contact personnel, and assist with writing of the grants. Prioritization of Faculty Positions The eight percent increase in student fees has provided an opportunity for the college to hire one additional faculty position. The next position on the prioritization list is for a biology instructor. The science department will initiate the recruitment process. The VPAA would like to have a wish list of ten teaching faculty positions that departments would like to have. This will help to plan for the future of the college. Integrative Seminars Scheduling The VPAA asked each department to submit a summary of projected needs for integrative seminars. The summary is to include the delivery mode, what and where the needs are, and the expected number of students. The VPAA was asked to provide the number of INT courses offered and enrollment statistics from the past three semesters. The requested information will assist departments in summarizing future needs. Each seminar offered should be approved by the curriculum and articulation committee. The general education ad hoc committee will review all content for INT 339, 349, 359, and 369 seminars. It was pointed out that if a seminar is offered online then it must be completely online. A course listed on the long-term schedule for IAV delivery can be delivered in an online format. Approval of Catalog Changes Any changes or updates to the GBC catalog require approval from the VPAA. Program changes must be approved by curriculum and articulation. Enrollment In general terms, the college ended about eight percent down in enrollment for fall 2011. Currently, for spring 2012 enrollment is down approximately eleven percent. Students are having trouble identifying online courses in PeopleSoft. Students are required to do an extended search in order to view just online courses. In most cases, when TBA is listed under the time section, it is an online course. The format also creates confusion when advising students. Accreditation Accreditation is coming along. Preliminary drafts will be distributed and comments are requested. Departments were encouraged to update their online strategic plans. Faculty Overload Sub-Committee At the last meeting departments were asked to discuss the proposals with faculty; no suggestions were received. The committee will make final changes to the proposal and then the item will be taken to Faculty Senate for approval. Faculty Senate Container/Committees Review The committee is working on two items. One is looking at a possible container voting restructure and the second is to review the committee organization of Faculty Senate. The committee is proposing two scenarios regarding the container voting restructure. The first option is one vote per container. In the second option, teaching faculty would have a four-to-one vote ratio and non-teaching would have a six-to-one vote ratio. The reason for the difference in ratios is to keep the 60-40 balance. The majority of department chairs voted to have the committee go forward with the one vote per container. As part of the container realignment academic faculty have all been placed in department containers and non-teaching faculty are in administrative containers. INT 100-GBC Orientation Chairs were reminded that participation in the GBC orientation is still a requirement for departments. A representative from each department is needed for the meet and greet session. David Freistroffer will present the high school to college session, Ed Nickel will speak about plagiarism, and Linda Uhlenkott or Susanne Bentley will do an overview of general education. The orientation will take place on Saturday, January 21, 2012 beginning at 9:00 a.m. and ending at 4:00 p.m. )389<  * H I ] h ɾ||ti^RR|h8.hn?d5CJ^Jh8.hvNCJ^Jh8.h{CJ^JhM/CJ^Jh8.hKCJ^Jh8.hU;CJ^Jh8.hDCJ^Jh8.hzg`CJ^Jh8.h&ICJ^Jh8.hn?dCJ^Jh8.h:CJ^Jh8.h:5CJ^Jhh:^JaJhhU ^JaJh^JaJhh:5^JaJ)F j k 7$8$H$^gdv6 7$8$H$gdv6`7$8$H$^``gd:`7$8$H$^``gdn?d`7$8$H$^``gdL 7$8$H$gd:$7$8$H$a$gd$7$8$H$a$gd:h j k   Q s x    8 ; O e | ԻsdUUUUUUh8.h B*CJ^Jphh8.hS kB*CJ^Jphh8.hcB*CJ^Jphh8.hgRB*CJ^Jphh8.h6B*CJ^Jphh8.hfBB*CJ^Jphh8.h 5CJ^J h8.hv65B*CJ^Jphh}CJ^Jh8.hv6CJ^Jh8.heCJ^Jh8.hrCJ^Jh8.h:CJ^J  & 3 > B J K L n o p  :xy Aq𴥔tti^iOC^h8.hv65CJ^Jh8.h[@B*CJ^Jphh8.hmGCJ^Jh8.h[@CJ^Jh8.ha|B*CJ^Jph h8.hr5B*CJ^Jph h8.hZ75B*CJ^Jphh8.hZ7B*CJ^Jphh8.hv6B*CJ^Jphh8.hgRB*CJ^Jphh8.hcB*CJ^Jphh8.h6B*CJ^Jphh8.h8B*CJ^Jph K L p y AXYu & F 7$8$H$gd[@7$8$H$^gdv6 & F7$8$H$gd[@ & F7$8$H$gd[@ & F7$8$H$gd[@ 7$8$H$gdv6 & F7$8$H$gdfq/1dADVWXYuɾԾɳ{pdh8.h\5CJ^Jh8.hpCJ^Jh8.hT{eCJ^Jh8.hCJ^Jh8.hv65CJ^Jh8.hv6CJ^Jh8.huCJ^Jh8.hswCJ^Jh8.h9CJ^Jh8.hNkCJ^Jh8.h:R<CJ^Jh8.h3 CJ^Jh8.h[XCJ^Jh8.hqCJ^J&9Xfgh< }&ɾɵ~sh\K h8.he5B*CJ^Jphh8.h&/5CJ^Jh8.h0CJ^Jh8.heCJ^Jh8.h5CJ^Jh8.he5CJ^Jh}CJ^Jh8.h&/CJ^Jh8.hf5CJ^Jh8.5CJ^Jh8.h[@CJ^Jh8.hfCJ^Jh8.hv6CJ^Jh8.hmGCJ^Jh8.hpCJ^Jh8.h\CJ^JQv) & F$7$8$H$gd 7$8$H$gd0 & F#7$8$H$gde 7$8$H$gde7$8$H$^gd[@ & F!7$8$H$gd[@ 7$8$H$gdv6 & F 7$8$H$gd[@!9<=@asuv0237<cdfgŴxiZiiiiKiih8.htB*CJ^Jphh8.heB*CJ^Jphh8.h]K5B*CJ^Jphh8.h}BB*CJ^Jphh8.h0B*CJ^Jphh8.hmGB*CJ^Jphh8.hB*CJ^Jph h8.hQ15B*CJ^Jphh8.hQ1B*CJ^Jphh8.heCJ^Jh8.hQ1CJ^Jh8.hCJ^Jh8.h0CJ^Jgkp ); "ATUᶭፁrrrrrrrrfWh8.h}B*CJ^Jphhv6B*CJ^Jphh8.hsB*CJ^Jphh}B*CJ^Jphh8.heB*CJ^Jph h8.hv65B*CJ^Jphh}5CJ^Jh8.htCJ^Jh8.hB*CJ^Jph h8.h&/5B*CJ^Jphh8.htB*CJ^Jphh8.h]K5B*CJ^Jph"U 7$8$H$gdv6 & F"7$8$H$gdeh8.hv6B*CJ^Jph?0P1F:p0/ =!"# $ % Dpj 666666666vvvvvvvvv666666>6666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666hH6666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666662 0@P`p2( 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p8XV~ OJPJQJ_HmH nH sH tH D`D 58-NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH DA D Default Paragraph FontRiR 0 Table Normal4 l4a (k ( 0No List H H 58- No SpacingCJ_HaJmH sH tH T T 00 Balloon TextCJOJQJaJmHsHtHN/N 00Balloon Text CharCJOJQJ^JaJPK![Content_Types].xmlj0Eжr(΢Iw},-j4 wP-t#bΙ{UTU^hd}㨫)*1P' ^W0)T9<l#$yi};~@(Hu* Dנz/0ǰ $ X3aZ,D0j~3߶b~i>3\`?/[G\!-Rk.sԻ..a濭?PK!֧6 _rels/.relsj0 }Q%v/C/}(h"O = C?hv=Ʌ%[xp{۵_Pѣ<1H0ORBdJE4b$q_6LR7`0̞O,En7Lib/SeеPK!kytheme/theme/themeManager.xml M @}w7c(EbˮCAǠҟ7՛K Y, e.|,H,lxɴIsQ}#Ր ֵ+!,^$j=GW)E+& 8PK!Ptheme/theme/theme1.xmlYOo6w toc'vuر-MniP@I}úama[إ4:lЯGRX^6؊>$ !)O^rC$y@/yH*񄴽)޵߻UDb`}"qۋJחX^)I`nEp)liV[]1M<OP6r=zgbIguSebORD۫qu gZo~ٺlAplxpT0+[}`jzAV2Fi@qv֬5\|ʜ̭NleXdsjcs7f W+Ն7`g ȘJj|h(KD- dXiJ؇(x$( :;˹!
