Deans for their work. She shared on the collaboration of Academic Services and Student
Services, led by Vice President Kritscher, for the Summer Open House series, which will

D. Action Items
1. Approval of Accreditation Report
Jim Matthews presented Possible Actionable Improvement Plans [Attachment 3]. The
plan should be approved through College Council and sent to the District for the Board of
Trustees June meeting and first reading. The goal is to have it completed for final
approval at the July Board meeting and mailed to the ACCJC soon after. The visiting
team will be here in October and there will be discussions scheduled at the September
Flex Day in order to prepare. Planning agenda items have been numerous in the past and
we want to have a more focused approach. We need to become more proficient and have
continuous improvement for SLO’s. The Major Developments document highlights

accomplishments since 2009 [Attachment 4]. Additional items can be sent to Jim
Matthews until June 16th.
The Council approved by consensus that the Accreditation Report posted on the website
be forwarded to the Board of Trustees.
President Sperling thanked Jim Matthew, Stacy Thompson, Patricia Shannon, Rachael
Tupper-Eoff and Gene Groppetti for all of their work and putting the report together.
2. Approval of Classified Professional Position Requests
President Sperling presented the Classified Professional Position Requests for 2015-2016
[Attachment 5]. This was the first full year cycle of the process approved by College
Council. There was much consultation on the list with the Classified Senate having a
Prioritization Committee that brought in all program reviews and feedback with the
President. The Classified Prioritization Committee hosted a listening session to gather
additional feedback on the final list and develop recommendations for College Council
[Attachment 6].
President Sperling recommended that they approve the priority one positions with the
understanding that depending on the budget, the other positions of 2nd level priorities
could be discussed. The timeline for the priority 2 to become priority 1 should be a
continued discussion during the summer.
The Council approved by consensus to move forward the priority one positions and
continue discussions regarding the priority twos.
3. Student Equity Budget and Plan Revisions
Vice President Matthew Kritscher presented that the May Review continues to support
the Student Equity categorical fund by $115 million statewide, which is $15 million more
than in January. SSSP has increased from $1 to $3 million in two years. There is still
more work that is needed through the State Chancellor’s Office. No college fully met the
12 criteria and there needs to be a better connection with the goals and activities with the
disproportionate study and how the funds are being used. The draft FY 2015-16 budget
has been presented to the Equity Council [Attachment 7]. It is not fully compliant. The
recommendation is to hold the revised draft budget and continue to report out and support
the FY 2014-15 budget proposals that go until December 31st and were approved in the
November plan and to move the coordinator/director/administrator position for the equity
plan. The Equity Council has put together structures for this role. The Administrative
Assistant position should be included with the Classified Subcommittee.
The Council by consensus approved the full time administrator/director equity budget
plan.
