Approval of Meeting Minutes

Equipment Replacement

• S-11 will be used to build the new TCI stations that will be delivered in January.
• Richard has been in T5 and has began to move out equipment and move in the new monitors. Friday, and then next Monday, and Tuesday we will be going in and putting in the new thin clients.
• We have received all 35 iMacs that will be going into T10. We plan on starting on this project on Friday.
• Our goal is to have classrooms and labs complete by January 12^th so that we can focus on the laptop carts.
• Mark is building the print queues for all of the new printers.
• Dr. Maloney mentioned that she has heard from faculty that teach in rooms where new equipment has been installed, it seems that even though all of the new equipment is in place, the necessary software is sometimes not being loaded, settings are different than what the instructor is used to, things of that nature. She asks if there is a checklist for each classroom as to what needs to be done when installing new equipment.
• During Spring break we plan on spending approximately $20,000 replacing/updating the laptop carts in Science/Math, replacing batteries in some of the laptops, and replacing broken screens if we decide to keep the tablets we currently have. We are also looking at the idea of utilizing a third party company that does refreshes and they have the same tablets that we currently use.
• Replacements for the Library will go into next year’s budget. Terri reports she is experiencing a lot of issues with her current laptops and can only nurse the equipment for so long. Adrian informed her that we are waiting on batteries for a lot of her units and they will remain functional.Adrian would like for Terri to consider the NComputing stations for the library.

ITC Charter

• The document shows what exactly the ITC committee has done and plans to do. Adrian will periodically report ITC updates to the Governance Council.
• Dan Hall asks that these charters be available online for faculty. Dr. Maloney advises that this is currently in the works.

AP 3720

• Dr. Maloney met with the attorneys and discussed some of the concerns brought up by the ITC committee and the language used in the document.
• Dr. Maloney advised that any time you use the District’s network, you are basically relinquishing some of your privacy.
• She also advises that we are not routinely monitoring your usage. A “trigger” causes us to look into usage. We do not routinely scan emails or do keyword monitoring unless there is an event that causes us to.
• Adrian participated in a cyber-security webinar. We have a lot of sensitive student information on campus and we need to do our due diligence in keeping that information safe. We are looking at the idea of possibly parking some of our data in the Cloud in case the campus is hit by earthquake, flood, etc

Christmas Break

• There will be some Banner upgrades.
• There will be classroom upgrades.
• Adrian will only be out between Christmas and New Years.

Outlook Issues

• We are experiencing an issue with emails going to Junk Mail and shared calendars are not available. Mark has put in a ticket with Microsoft.

Approval of Minutes of the September Meeting

* Tabled until the December meeting.

AP 3720

• Dr. Maloney was present at the meeting to address any questions or concerns that faculty and staff may have regarding Administrative Procedure 3720. Dr. Maloney reminded those in             attendance that AP 3720 has been reviewed by the legal department and is being put in place to protect the system and our data as well as the District and employees. She also informed the committee that administrative procedures do not require Board approval. All existing staff and any new hires will be required to sign the document one time only, unless changes are made to it. ASB is also reviewing AP 3720 as it will directly impact students. We are looking at implementing the student version in the Spring and the staff version somewhere around January or February. There were a few questions asked by the committee regarding emails and devices that will require some research by Dr. Maloney. She will report back at the next meeting.
• Dr. Eigenauer notified the committee that Academic Senate has put off the discussion of AP 3720 until January.

ITC Charter

• Adrian reported to the committee that he, along with Dan and Linda have reviewed the document again.
• Dr. Maloney explained that the verbiage used in the document was basically boiler plate wording. It’s the same for all Governance meeting charters. She suggests that Adrian finish the document and have it ready for the Governance Council on December 12^th so that we can move forward.
• Ruby Payne mentioned possibly bringing ITC discussion to FIG to involve more instructors when it comes to planning what type of equipment should be purchased following the Technology Master Plan.
• Dr. Maloney feels that Student Services staff should be largely involved in the technology planning as well.
• Dr. Eigenauer brought it to the committee’s attention that we may need to focus a little bit more on assessing the need for technology training and reporting it to the Staff Development Committee.

Year 2 Equipment Replacement

• 35 iMacs for T10, 35 NComputing stations for T5, and 15 NComputing stations for TCI have all been approved by the Board and purchased. We will be replacing the old equipment during Christmas break.
• Adrian is finishing up the cost assessment for replacement projectors for the Science building and the STEM building. All new projectors will be identical. He is researching the possibility of purchasing replacement screens as well. Those items will also be replaced during Christmas break.
• For Spring break, we will be finishing up the laptops or laptop cart replacements for the Science building. Ruby Payne requests that once IT makes a decision that they then discuss it with the Math and Science faculty.
• Ruby Payne reminded IT that the laptop carts will need to have the updates done on them during the Christmas break as well.

The meeting was adjourned at 10:55 a.m.
