Program Review Synthesis Statement on Resource Allocation
March 4th, 2015
Based upon the trends seen in Program Review documents and discussions with college
constituencies and committees, the PRBC recommends that the college consider a radical new
direction from its historical pattern. Traditionally, we obtain our FTES goal, translate that to
FTEF, and put it on schedule while adding new faculty based on retirements and program need.
From reading and synthesizing over fifty Program Reviews, we see a critical need for classified
and administrative personnel to support our existing and projected FTES goals as well as retain
existing students to meet these FTES goals. Critical gaps in infrastructure prevent us from
maintaining programs and meeting student needs.
