DISCUSSION
ITEMS
Changes to request
form and rubric
The committee agreed that the rubric functioned as expected but it needs
additional work. The committee will revisit this topic in the spring.
Ratify the five
action items for the
CCCCO
The committee agreed with the tri-chair’s recommendation on the five
action items to forward to the Chancellor’s Office. The committee
requested to revise the “Explore feasibility of math and English non credit basic
skills classes” planning item to reflect that the “BSC, EMC, Dean’s Council, CSSO”
will be responsible for completion of this action item.
The revised plan will be sent to the CCCCO on December 2. The revised GANTT
chart reflecting the “tracked” actions will be sent to the committee and uploaded to
the BSC site on December 2.
