Over the next 6 years, what are your longer term vision(s) and goals?
Include long term plans to scale up and align with other Chabot programs and/or services to reach more
students, address equity, facilities request and community outreach plans.
In order for there to be any kind of scale up and aligning with other programs and/or services there
needs to be time and places to have these conversations. These kinds of conversations go beyond Staff
Development and Flex Day workshops. There needs to be deep conversations around baseline
pedagogy and alignment. Paid summer trainings, retreats and conferences need to be part of building
collaboration. Throughout the semester a continued conversation needs to happen to successfully build
collaborations. Areas we have tried in the past but have not been able to sustain are the Learning
Community “We are Family” events where CIN!, Puente and Daraja programs and students held events
around a shared theme both in class and extracurricular. The Math 53 is another example of building
collaboration around Puente and Daraja students’ success in math, but there is no Learning Assistant,
full time faculty, sustained study room hours or tutoring to go along with this high demand need. There
has also been a lack of time for the faculty members of the Learning communities to partner and
support the math component.
Because of the various events and activities our Learning Communities and Special Programs offer
throughout the year, it is imperative that the facilities coordination be streamlined. These events and
activities are cyclical and occur every year. Updating of the process and database used to calendar
campus-wide events needs to occur.
Outreach and Welcome Center needs to be developed so that perspective students and community can
schedule tours and visits on campus. The centro would be able to house materials, offer tours, and
connect students to Learning communities. It needs to be a welcoming center that would address the
needs and diversity of the Latino, African American and Pacific Islander communities. The centro should
also have training on how to address needs for our disability and foster youth. Every year the Puente
office gets requests for tours and support services to all areas of campus.
In the near future, Chabot should be connected to all major corporations in our area and have a visible
presence on campus. Especially visible in the Career Center offering job trainings, resume workshops,
and career exploration from specific industry perspectives.
Depending on the current construction and renovation projects on campus, there still may be a need for
long term study spaces on campus equipped with the latest technology.
Skype video conferencing is something that should be accessible across campus.
