ACTION ITEMS 101 Corridor Survey Allen asked that we change question 1B to say “educational goal” and not “degree” It was agreed to remove “Klamath Trinity” from question 2 & 4.

Keith Snow-Flamer and Bruce Wagner, as co-chairs, agreed to review the list of task and provide a prioritized list to the EMC at a future meeting. The ASCR has agreed to review the student satisfaction and Satisfaction Survey and Enrollment Management Plan enrollment management plan action items. ASCR will provide feedback to the EMC on what they think the college may want to focus on to improve the student success. The EMC will review ASCR’s feedback and begin reviewing both plans this fall Wait List REPORTS Enrollment FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS Allen Keppner presented a list of concerns by the Academic Senate pertaining to the wait lists procedures for fall 2010: o Conducted “adds” electronically, but still used white add cards o Create a flow chart for students and faculty to demonstrate how the electronic wait lists works o Feedback loop: when faculty add students, faculty and students must wait until the next class meeting to see if the student was added o Students must understand process o Faculty must understand process There was concern expressed about the size of wait lists—having a 20 waitlist for all classes regardless of capacity wasn’t equitable. It was suggested there be three wait list limits: one for normal capacity in person, one for large classes, and one for online classes. Concern about the process/procedure of how the wait lists work Kathy Goodlive will draft a recommendation for the wait list process and the number of students on wait lists. Maggie Lynch said the faculty teaching online were happy with their wait lists caps of 20. Maggie will also look into faculty having access to drop students from their courses. Rachel Anderson discussed spring course scheduling. The instructional and student services deans met to discuss reducing the spring schedule by 26 TLUs, they first looked at picture globally, then by program. . Wait List Operating Agreement
