OPEN DISCUSSION
College Council discussed using the term Chief Executive Officer vs.
President/Superintendent. In previous meetings it was decided to use the CEO,
CSSO, CIO, CHRO naming convention.
College Council also discussed how to get the notification back to constituents
that their feedback was presented at the meeting. It was agreed that Constituent
Feedback document was helpful and would be posted on the website in the
future. As well the President’s office would send an email to all feedback
submitters a note saying their feedback was reviewed and discussed at the
meeting.
Connie Wolfsen would like to change the title of AP 4102 from
Occupational/Vocational Technical Programs to Career and Technical Programs.
Due to the change being unsubstantial the change will be made immediately.
Connie Wolfsen brought up that BP 4231 Grade Changes and BP 4235 Credit by
Examination was reviewed when ASPC rewrote the AP. They didn’t feel the BP
needed to be updated. However, it was agreed that all BPs and APs will be sent
to College Council, regardless whether revisions are recommended. Therefore
BP 4231 and BP 4235 will be updated and sent out for constituent review
