Access Committee 4.24-15<\/p>\n
Access Members Dan Hall, Vicki Jacobi, Mark Williams, Danielle Vohnout, and Alexander Victoria attended the Equity conference at Bakersfield College on April 23, 2015. <\/em><\/p>\n Mark asked about doing something here at TC in the Fall, but no definite plans were made. A comment about involving students and ASB in the future was made. At the BC conference, students were in attendance and had a separate lunch with one of the presenters. <\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Cognos training is taking place next week on April 27-30. Adam asked what the focus should be in regards to reports as he would like to practice right away. The completions monitoring report should be the 1st <\/sup>item. <\/em><\/p>\n Not a module in the Cognos training, but should be a priority. <\/em><\/p>\n iii. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Invite Access members to join in discussions<\/p>\n Data work such as major completions should be made available to the Enrollment Management group. Mark would send out the Dropbox link to Access members. <\/em><\/p>\n The members approved going forward with the Childcare Intervention this summer. Discussion regarding what this will really look like was had. Equity money would be given to the Childcare center in order to support a cohort of Taft College students who need childcare and disproportionally impacted. It was discussed that there may be an application process or a first-come-first-served basis. The details have yet to be worked out, and a subcommittee of Access may need to work on this separately. <\/em><\/p>\n We are going to wait for the State as they may provide more help\/guidance in this area. <\/em><\/p>\n Students who are disproportionally impacted would become student workers who then could work as mentors, tutors, in focus groups, research, etc. Since a classified support staff member is going to be hired, this may wait until that position is hired and can oversee the student workers. <\/em><\/p>\n Program review changes are being discussed in the Strategic Planning committee. The question was asked how we would see the Equity agenda built into the Program review process and SLOs used as an intervention. It was discussed that courses should have 1-2 overarching SLOs that are really the course goals. Questions were asked regarding how to make SLOs meaningful and how to have these larger conversations across campus. The idea of discussions happening as degrees\/programs rather than as divisions would de-silo the campus. <\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n\n
