Please be prepared to answer questions from the community when wearing these pins. -The President received a note back from the chancellor thanking him for the 91Ƶ Faculty Accomplishment Booklet. He thanked him for sharing it with him and noted that it is obvious that the faculty is dedicated to students. Report from the Provost -Provost Lucas welcomed the new faculty and thanked them for accepting President Rushs offer to join our distinguished faculty. -First, Provost Lucas reported on the future Renaissance College (current working title) inviting faculty to submit alternate names for the college. Until a permanent name is selected, he will be referring to it as The New Academy. The New Academy will be supported by external resources and will not be a drain to our current resources. -Secondly, he updated everyone on the next round of faculty searches indicating it will be different than past searches. One difference is that we will be searching for rank-specific positions; secondly, we will have more people involved than ever before. If it is a successful search, we will hopefully have move than 100 tenure track faculty next year. Please recommend more than one strong candidate for each position. -Third, President Rush has requested that we work with Associate Vice President Deborah Wylie to find a way to incorporate sustainability into our curriculum. If you are interested in exploring ways we might incorporate sustainable campus planning into our curriculum, please see either Dean Vaidya or Provost Lucas. -Fourth, everyone was encouraged to take advantage of the instructional design support services offered by Academic Technology Services. If you are interested in incorporating more technology into your classes, or if you whish to develop hybrid courses or on-line courses, please contact Judy Swanson, Manager, IT User Support Services -Fifth, Provost Lucas received a request from the Academic Planning Committee, which oversees the Academic Master Plan. Their recommendation is to take academic year 2009-10 as a respite year and not add any new programs for the year. They recommend we take time to catch up and build out the programs we already have before offering new ones. Future programs will not be deleted from the Master plan, but rather simply moved back one year. Provost Lucas approved the recommendation. -Sixth, Provost Lucas announced that he will be stepping down as Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs at the end of this academic year. While he will be stepping down as Provost, he is not retiring. Instead, he will take on responsibilities related to getting The New Academy up and running. Report from the Statewide Academic Senate -Dennis Muraoka reported after having attended the first meeting of the year last week. He reports that a big discussion item involved the Deans of the colleges of Business in the CSU asking for an additional fee to be assessed to students seeking an MBA degree. -Secondly, a ballot initiative will be voted on in February that directly affects community colleges but will also have an impact on the CSU, if passed. The ballot seeks to create a governing body such as the Trustees that govern the CSU, and it also seeks to roll back student fees to $15 a unit which will affect our state allocations. -Muraoka announced that he would be vacating his Statewide Senate position soon. He will be moving into a position in the office of the Provost. Joining Provost Lucass staff as an administrator will mean he will no longer be able to represent the faculty in this position. He encouraged colleagues to consider running for the position, adding that he felt he had benefited greatly by being a member of the Statewide Senate.
