Classified Senate Meeting
Meeting was cut short due to a baby shower that was thrown for a former classified member.
Discussions are on the table about the complications on why a website called "WebMaster" [I
believe] is taking months to be made. Also informed that this other item is being taken care of
before "Webmaster" though that item was just recently decided to be made. We have funds that
need to be distributed between both Las Positas and Chabot College for this upcoming year so
that will be soon decided/discussed more on.

Staff Development Committee
At this meeting, my first while serving on this committee, we had a debrief of the 9/02 flex day.
We reviewed the flex day faculty feedback (mostly positive) and determined that in order to
receive more meaningful feedback we would restructure the survey. At the end of this meeting
we had a very brief overview of the upcoming 10/16 flex day. The details of the upcoming flex
day would be discussed at the following committee meeting, scheduled for 9/16.

Staff Development Committee
At this particular meeting we assembled a "rough draft" for the 10/16 flex day. Here, we
determined that faculty would benefit from a fire, earthquake, and lockdown safety drill as a
majority have not been well trained in emergency safety (quite alarming,I know). The majority
of the meeting was spent on constructing the 10/16 flex day agenda to allow for a "surprise"
safety drill and debrief/training. Towards the end of this meeting the chair of the committee,
Professor Warda, let me know that SSCC could have 5 minutes at the morning flex day
presentation. To which I notified both Jesse and Noeli about this. The following committee
meeting is scheduled for 9/30.

Committee on Online Learning
Committee on Online Learning (Cool) supports faculty in Online/Hybrid course delivery
ventures as well as the development of course delivery plans and proposals. At this meeting the
committee members discussed their role as the Committee On Online Learning. They discussed
their criteria for a Online/Hybrid course to be proposed and submitted. According to Ms. Wong,
Faculty members interested in teaching a course in Online/Hybrid delivery can view the
complete Online/Hybrid Course by accessing www.chabotcollege.edu/cool/Proposal Process.
This information pertaining to this committee is vital to the success of students who depend on
the convenience that Chabot College offers through their online courses. As a result, the
members of this committee responsibly review the planning and or implementation of these
courses.

Planning, Review, and Budget Council
Planning, Review and Budget Council (PRBC) lead the college in planning and the integration of
those plans with resource allocations (including development, implement and assessment of
plans, and resource allocation), At this particular meeting the council discussed the revision and
updated program review: forms, dates, Ed. Master Plan, and website. The next topic of
discussion was Shared Governance Committee website support. At this moment each Committee
is taking the opportunity to create an updated version of their website. During this meeting, I
took the opportunity to inform members of the Student Life Calendar,Literacy Drive, and Town
Hall Meeting. We also discussed PRBC’s strategic plan initiatives, these initiatives allow
members of the council to sit down as a collective body. It is here where they constructively
discussed the option to implement.
Written Reports by Hye Yoon Shin as an Interim Communications Director
Hye Yoon Shin (Chair), Bianca Bullock, Michael Robinson, and Valeria Cazares have formed
the Communication Committee (ComCom) in order to promote a two-way conversation between
the SSCC and the ASCC and to improve communications within the SSCC. As our foremost
task, ComCom is carrying out some of the strategies for representing the SSCC in the Chabot
community. Specifically, we have been updating SSCC pages on Chabot College website,
creating fliers for the upcoming events, and creating a nametag or a badge for each senator.
Student Senate of Chabot College
To: Jesse Esquire, SSCC President
Subject: Student Trustee Written Report for September 29, 2014
Date: September 29, 2014
On September, 16, 2014, the Board of Trustees discussed and approved the budget for the School
Year 2014-2015. The budget is about 87 million dollars for the whole Chabot-Las Positas
Community College District. 58% percent of the given amount will go to Chabot College; that's
about 51 million dollars. These funds came from the California State Government; The other
grants the college received like Measure B is not included in the 87 million because most of
these
grants comes locally through local measures. There are concern on how the budget will be when
Prop 30 dies. Prop 30 was passed on November 2012 election; it is a proposition that increases
funding to schools and colleges by taxing the rich. The proposition is only good until 2016.
