Recommended Lodging of Revised Board Policy G 8.1 Grievance
Process for Persons with Disabilities
G 8.1 Grievance Process for Students with Disabilities (7/98)
[AP B 10, G 8 & G 8.1]
The College is committed to the elimination of legally impressible, arbitrary or
unreasonable practices which result in discrimination. All groups operating under the
policies of the College, including all employees, student governments and programs
sponsored by the College are governed by this policy of non-discrimination. In
accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990 and Board policy, the College does not discriminate on the
basis of disability.
a. Purpose and Scope
The purpose of this procedure is to provide College applicants/students with
disabilities an opportunity to resolve complaints alleging discrimination based on
disability (in accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the
Americans with Disabilities Act.) It also allows for complaints from employees
who are asked to provide the accommodation(s). However, if the accommodation is
approved by the Access office, the employee will provide the accommodation(s)
while he/she is appealing the requested accommodation(s).
It is the intent of this procedure that complaints would be resolved, if at all possible,
in the area or department where the alleged violation occurred. Because each
grievance must be judged on a case-by-case basis, it would be impossible to state or
limit within this procedure the type of relief which might be afforded.
If the ADA Hearing Committee finds in favor of the applicant/student with a
disability(s), the reparation for such complaint must be consistent with the authority
delegated to that body.
This procedure does not apply to the following types of complaints as other appeals
procedures exist:
ƒ Administrative Withdrawal - In order to remove a failing semester grade, a
written appeal must be received by the executive dean. Extenuating circumstances
should be clearly explained, and any relevant supporting documentation should
accompany the withdrawal request.
ƒ Employee Grievances - Complaints of College employees except student
employees should be processed through the ADA coordinator for employment and
the appropriate ADA personnel grievance procedure.
ƒ Grade Appeals - When the appeal involves a final grade, within 10 working days
of receipt of the written response from the dean, the student or the faculty member
must file a written request with the president for a hearing of the campus
Academic Appeals Hearing Committee. Within 10 working days of receipt of the
student’s or faculty member’s request, the campus president will designate the
Hearing Committee and provide the committee with the original allegations and
written responses. The committee will have 15 working days to conduct the
hearing. The committee’s decision will be final.
ƒ Student Discipline - All students, including students with disabilities, are
expected to follow the rules as stated in the College’s Student Rights and
Responsibilities handbook, and violation of student conduct is subject to the
hearing procedures stated in such handbook.
ƒ Student Record Challenges - In accordance with the Family Educational Rights
and Privacy Act of 1974, students may challenge their record as being
inappropriate, misleading, inaccurate, or in violation of their privacy. A
student/applicant may review his/her official educational records by submitting a
written request to the Admissions, Registration and Records office.
b. Definitions
ƒ District ADA Coordinator - The individual designated to oversee the
investigation, mediation and processing of complaints brought under this
procedure. This person will act as resource to the Cosand Centers/campuses' ADA
compliance officers and the ADA coordinator for employment by researching
necessary information, providing awareness and establishing consistent policies
under the ADA. This person will attend all formal grievance hearings, but will not
be a voting member of such hearing. The district ADA coordinator (with the help
of general counsel) will be responsible for providing an annual in-service for new
campus/Cosand Center ADA Hearing Committee members.
ƒ Campus/Cosand Center ADA Compliance Officers - The individual(s)
designated to receive the formal ADA grievance form. The ADA compliance
officer(s) will meet with the grievant and necessary employees, conduct an
investigation and attempt to resolve the grievance. The ADA compliance officer
will issue a decision based on the relevant information and interviews. He/she will
be responsible for notifying the grievant of his/her decision within 10 working
days after the grievance is filed. He/she will be responsible for notifying the chair
of the ADA Hearing Committee when the grievant wishes to appeal his/her
decision.
ƒ District ADA Coordinator for Employment - The individual designated by
Human Resources to oversee the College’s response to requirements under Title I
of the ADA. He/she will hear all formal ADA complaints brought forth by
employees of the College and applicants/students at the Cosand Center.
ƒ Chair(s)/ADA Hearing Committee(s) - The chair of the ADA Hearing
Committee and its members will be appointed by the appropriate campus president
or vice chancellor. The campus committee will be composed of a faculty member
from each division, four professional employees (or two professional and two
classified employees) and two students with two alternates for each group.
Alternates will serve in case of illness or conflict of interest. The district ADA
coordinator and campus/Cosand Center compliance officer will act as ex officio
members of the committee.
Members will serve alternating two-year terms except for students, who will serve
one-year terms. At least one voting member of the committee should have a
disability.
The charge of the committee will be to hear grievance appeals of
applicants/students with disabilities only after the grievant has exhausted all
informal channels, and the ADA compliance officer has attempted to resolve the
grievance.
ƒ Applicant - A member of the public with a disability who has applied for
admission to a program, activity or service provided by the College.
ƒ Student - an individual with a disability who has been accepted to the College and
is enrolled in classes.
ƒ Employee who has been asked to provide the accommodation(s) - An
employee who has been asked to provide an accommodation(s) for a
student/applicant with a disability. An employee who has received notice from the
Access office that a person with a disability is entitled to an accommodation(s)
based on presented documentation must provide the accommodation(s) while
he/she is appealing the requested accommodation(s).
c. Summary of ADA Grievance Procedure
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that public entities with 50 or
more employees adopt a grievance procedure which provides for prompt and
equitable resolution of grievances which arise from Title II requirements (which
covers students and applicants to a College program, activity or service). This
procedure does not cover student record challenges, grade appeals, student
discipline or employee grievances since other procedures have been established for
these instances.
ƒ Informal Grievance - The student/applicant or the employee who is being asked
to provide the accommodation(s) who wishes to appeal College action regarding
accommodation(s) for a disability should do so informally by requesting a
conference with a member of the Access office and other appropriate employees;
i.e., this includes the instructor when the complaint is about a classroom
accommodation that was or was not provided. If the matter is not resolved, an
appeal may be made through the normal administrative channels (department
chair, dean or executive dean as appropriate). An ADA/504 Informal Grievance
form must be completed and submitted to the dean/executive dean ADA
COMPLIANCE OFFICER before the conference.
STEPS FOR INFORMAL GRIEVANCE

form and files with appropriate
dean(s). Within 10 working days the
dean(s) convenes a conference of
appropriate parties from above and
may consult with district ADA
coordinator.
Step 1
ƒ Formal Grievance - If unsatisfied with the informal appeal, the student/applicant
or the employee asked to provide the accommodation(s) may initiate a formal,
written ADA grievance with the ADA compliance officer (manager of
employment, Cosand Center; executive dean, Florissant Valley; Dean of Student
Support Services, Forest Park; and Dean of Student Support Services, Meramec)
by filing an ADA/504 Formal Grievance form within 10 working days of the
conclusion of the informal appeal. The compliance officer will conduct an
investigation and attempt to resolve the grievance.
If the student/applicant or the employee is unsatisfied with the outcome of the
compliance officer’s decision, the compliance officer will notify the district ADA
coordinator and the chair of the campus ADA Hearing Committee. The chair of
the committee will convene the committee within 10 working days of receipt of
the formal grievance. The student/applicant or the faculty/staff member may
request an appeal to the committee in person or have the committee act on the
written materials submitted. IF THE STUDENT ASKS OTHER PEOPLE TO
REPRESENT HIM/HER AT THE HEARING, THE STUDENT MUST
ALSO PARTICIPATE.
(Note: The remainder of this policy contains no revisions.)
# 12 Recommended Approval of April 22, 2004 Board Meeting with Student
Leaders
It is recommended that the Board of Trustees schedule a meeting with Student Leaders on
Thursday, April 22, 2004 at 5:00 p.m. at the Florissant Valley Campus in TC 110/116.
#15
Recommended Approval of the Appointment of Dr. Henry D. Shannon
to the Campus Works, Inc. Advisory Board
It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve Dr. Henry D. Shannon’s
appointment to Campus Works, Inc. Advisory Board. Campus Works, Inc. assists
higher education institutions to resolve information technology issues, create a
stable operating environment, and provide strategic planning guidance.
II. Instruction and Student Services
It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve the revised Associate in Applied Science
in Human Services: Disabilities Option approved and submitted by the District Curriculum
Committee.
Program: Human Services: Disabilities Option
Associate in Applied Science
Campus: Forest Park
Effective: Summer 2004
Impact Statement:
The Disabilities Program at Forest Park has always enjoyed wonderful prompt placement of its
graduates; but like most career programs, it has struggled with the two R’s (Recruitment and
Retention).
A major “obstacle” of the program has been that potential students are confused about the
program title. Students think this career program is focused only on and is ultimately for persons
with disabilities. In reality, the program is for persons training to work in the field of disabilities
or those that are already in the field and need to get more information about persons with
disabilities. This program prepares students with the competencies needed for those who hire
them.
Prospective students will better understand by the proposed title (DISABILITIES STUDIES)
that they will actually STUDY about persons with disabilities and their issues; plus the title
change should help to recruit and maintain more students in the program.
The proposed title revision will provide a title that better fits the needs of the profession
(potential hiring organizations and schools), the community (persons at conference and exhibits
who tell us the brochure title does not reflect the actual program), and the student (who is not
sure who the program is for).

II. Instruction and Student Services
It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve the revised Associate in Applied Science
in Architectural Technology approved and submitted by the District Curriculum Committee.
Program: Architectural Technology
Associate in Applied Science
Campus: Meramec
Effective: Summer 2004
Impact Statement:
The field of Architecture is a dynamic profession undergoing frequent changes and
developments. Ten years ago 50% of architectural firms utilized computer aided drafting in their
practices. Today that number is closer to 98%. This is an example of just one area of change.
As a response to these changes, and through the suggestions of our advisory board, DACUM
review panel, and faculty outreach, we are proposing revisions to the Architectural Technology
program.
The program revisions primarily consist of changing some electives to required courses and
making other courses electives. They are as follows: Architectural Specifications, Materials,
and Methods will become required. Drawing I will become required. Construction Materials and
Methods will no longer be required or an elective. Intermediate and Advanced AutoCAD will
become program electives, and Computer rendering will become a program elective.
Architectural Technology is a career program with a very defined focus. We prepare our students
for work in the architectural field, or for further education. By determining what prospective
employers are looking for, and what other institutions are providing, we can best define our
program. Computer aided drafting is required by these employers and other institutions.

It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve the revised Certificate of Specialization in
Microcomputer Applications approved and submitted by the District Curriculum Committee.
Program: Microcomputer Applications
Certificate of Specialization
Campus: M, FP, FV
Effective: Summer 2004
Impact Statement:
The certificate of Specialization in Microcomputer Applications will be revised and updated to
reflect current technology and modern professional practice. Since the last revision of this
program the Microcomputer field has experienced many changes. Microcomputer Application
specialists are expected to be expert Microsoft Windows users where previously they needed to
know Microsoft DOS (Disk Operating System). Expert document processing skills are no longer
enough; now Microcomputer Application Specialists also need to know how to troubleshoot email enclosures and set up department web pages.
This program revision updates the curriculum to reflect changes in the Course Catalog, and
replaces outmoded or discontinued electives with classes that are more relevant for current office
practices.
Because the changes are being made only to program electives, this is a minor program revision.
It is not expected to cause any difficulties for students currently enrolled in the program. If any
current students have already completed one or more electives that are being removed from the
list, they will be given a Substitution Waiver to permit them to use those electives towards
graduation in this program.

(8) CONTRACT AWARD/RENEWAL FOR EMPLOYEE INSURANCE
8.1 Recommendation for Award of Medical Insurance Contract
Board Approval is requested for the award of a contract to UnitedHealthcare, our incumbent carrier for period of three (3) full years to begin
June 1, 2004.
Description
The College sought competitive bids for a medical plan. The bid specifications required quotes that duplicated our current open access plan. Request for
proposals were sent to 8 insurance carriers for fully insured medical coverage. We received proposals from UnitedHealthcare (UHC) and Group Health Plan
(GHP). Rates quoted were for a 12-month period. Marsh, our insurance consultant, analyzed the proposals and the College’s Insurance Advisory Committee
reviewed and evaluated the results. While GHP’s price was slightly lower, there were many contingencies that deemed their bid less than firm on price. UHC
rated considerably higher than GHP in areas other than price including network size, plan design, market security rating, continuity and customer satisfaction.
Based on the foregoing information, UHC was chosen as the sole finalist and recommended contractor. The total annual premium for Medical Insurance under
this recommendation will be $11,451,227. The College’s portion of that total premium will be $8,982,230.
