      Strategic Planning Committee \u2013 Documents Distributed <\/strong><\/p>\n

      Eric reported the SPC is continuing to work on Integrated Planning Model. The committee will meet again on March 7, 2014 to review a new item Outline of new Accreditation Standards.<\/p>\n

      Eric has put the new difference in the outline which was distributed to the committee and informed this committee of some very important issues. Institution set standards seems to be very big. The SPC will bring back some recommendations to the GC regarding this item.<\/p>\n

      Dena did some research and found a school which has Institution Set Standards on their website. She will check out other schools and see how they are approaching this new standard.<\/p>\n

      Eric pointed out the Annual Report questions 14a and 15 ask what we are doing now regarding the Institution Set Standards.<\/p>\n

      Budget Committee <\/strong><\/p>\n

      Brock reported the Budget Committee has met twice since the last GC meeting. The first<\/p>\n

      meeting was spent reviewing the Governor\u2019s proposed budget. The second meeting was to<\/p>\n

      review the non-personnel rankings, make potential funding recommendations and submit the report to Dena. The committee also discussed the P1 and P2 reports, which goes hand in hand with building our budgets. Jim is preparing a template to assist with budget preparation. These will be sent to Vice Presidents and the 14\/15 budget process will begin. Brock reminded the committee there is no new money in the budget for next year except for the Governor\u2019s proposal for a .86 COLA.<\/p>\n

      Brock reminded the committee that it would be very unlikely for Taft College to receive any growth funds since we took the waiver. Until all the colleges who took cuts are restored we are not in line for growth. The best we could hope for is that the funding base is changed which would help all the schools<\/p>\n
