Where does dialogue take place? Other (please specify): ¾ Conversations with colleagues (4 responses) ¾ Union and faculty senate (2 responses) ¾ All of these places ¾ Breakfast with Brian ¾ Classrooms ¾ Consultations with colleagues; evaluation meetings ¾ Faculty Senate ¾ In my office ¾ Offices ¾ Quite a bit during Flex week activities which makes them especially useful. ¾ Research data hard to get. It is all about the budget from where I stand. I've been told to do it myself. ¾ Within specific faculty area ‐ adjuncts & contract communicating, listening to student groups 8. In which campus bodies/committees are you involved? Other (please specify): ¾ Academic Council, Accreditation ¾ Advisory Committees ¾ Faculty Senate ¾ Many others ¾ Regional articulation committees ¾ SLO ARC ¾ State wide academic senate committees ¾ Student club ¾ Union ¾ We hardly have any Dept. or div. meetings.

Please rate your perceptions of Cabrillo College as they relate to Accreditation Standard III: Resources If applicable, specify locations that are not safe and/or healthy [Responses categorized by topic.] Maintenance Issues ¾ 100 Bldg work area is inadequate. Poor lighting, electrical is dangerous with regular outages when electrical plugs are being used. ¾ 300 Building offices (301, 310, 311) continue to receive fumes from the bathrooms in the 300 Building. Offices 310 and 311 share a wall with extremely noisy paper towel dispensers in the bathroom. Students who visit faculty in these offices are surprised, distracted, and bothered by the pounding of the paper towel dispensers and offended by the fumes from the bathroom. ¾ Bathroom in the 400 building ¾ 600 Building needs better ventilation considering materials in use. ¾ 700 building is FULL of chalk! I'm not crazy about the instructional end ‐ some requests are capricious. Division deans and program chairs are swamped with work. ¾ Hallway lighting in the 700 Bldg is below standard, or nonexistent. ¾ 1300 Building ¾ There are still concerns within in VAPA complex art studios with concern to health and safety in direct relation to HVAC, acoustic treatments, door card keys, and exterior security for buildings and locker break‐ins. ¾ VAPA Room #2008‐‐>2020 electrical systems are inadequate. ¾ VAPA Room 1117 needs many improvements. ¾ The classrooms that I use are barely adequate in terms of lighting. My office recently had a problem with toxic air and has had other such problems with clean air; it is rarely properly quiet around my office and classrooms. ¾ Door locking/unlocking is problematic at times; equipment not always safe. ¾ Graffiti (gang influenced) is creeping onto the campus (especially the bathrooms) and this concerns me as once established I am worried that it will lead to further deterioration of the environment which will then detrimentally affect how student perceive their environment and the idea of higher education. ¾ Older classroom with outdated undersized desks. ¾ Restrooms inside the cafeteria kitchen restrooms underneath the library parking lot "j" needs more night lighting ¾ The RT lab and storage areas are not secure. The closet door where needles and sharps are stored does not lock. Numerous requests to change the hardware have gone unattended. ¾ There is no sink in which to wash hands in the upper portion of the 400 bldg. There is a kitchenette in the copy room but no sink. Only place to wash hands is downstairs in the student bathroom which is often crowded and unkempt. For the health of the staff & faculty we need a sink on the upper floor of the 400 bldg. Cabrillo Planning & Research Office, Contract Faculty open‐ended text, page 2 of 3. Contract Faculty, continued Safety Issues ¾ Late afternoon and evening the campus seems open with decreased people and I do not feel safe to enter bathrooms or go to my car if I have worked late, so I take work home if I need to work late. ¾ Walkway between the 400, 350 and 300 Buildings is very dark at night; more lighting would improve safety. Lighting inside and outside of walkway going under 350 Building to the parking lot would also improve safety at night. ¾ My office recently had a problem with toxic air and has had other such problems with clean air; it is rarely properly quiet around my office and classrooms. ¾ The new buildings have toxic interior air quality. The materials used in construction are off‐gassing; new carpet, vinyl, paint, etc. Students, faculty and staff are experiencing headaches and other symptoms. Unfortunately, we have been told that we MUST keep all windows and doors closed because of the ventilation system. This doesn't allow the buildings to air out. ¾ The organic chemistry laboratory (1970 era) could be upgraded to meet the current health and safety standards outlined in the American Chemical Societies Guidelines for two year colleges. Our current facilities allow for a higher than desirable exposure to hazardous materials than modern designs for organic laboratories. ¾ The over growth of bushes and shrubs around the faculty parking lot at the Watsonville Center. People loiter in the bushes. Evening lighting going to and from the parking lots and garages at the main campus could be improved greatly. If you need to use ramps and elevators, the way is not very well lighted. Having a police presence at the Watsonville campus in the early evening until the end of night classes is a must. ¾ We need to be able to access help more quickly when we have disruptive students. Heating/Cooling ¾ Poor heating system in Bldg. 100. ¾ Lack of air‐conditioning makes some rooms a complete misery on hot days ‐ learning cannot take place when the ambient temperature of the room exceeds 95 degrees ‐ which it does on a regular basis during warm months like May and Sept. I know it gets that hot because we've measured the temp inside these classrooms more than once. Awful, awful, awful!! ¾ Inadequate ventilation in Building 400. Bathrooms are old and need upgrades in Building 400. ¾ Room 1303 gets incredibly hot on hot days. Everyone is sweating and miserable. ¾ VAPA Room #2008‐‐>2020 HVAC system and electrical systems are inadequate. Other ¾ The non‐smoking areas need to be enforced somehow. i.e. close to the 500 building. ¾ You should have a final box for "other comments" (like this one). My comment would be: Because "learning styles" are a myth, encouraging the use of different teaching methodologies as a response to learning styles of students is a waste of resources.

Please rate your perceptions of Cabrillo College as they relate to Accreditation Standard III: Resources If applicable, specify locations that are not safe and/or healthy [Responses categorized by topic.] Maintenance Issues ¾ Room 1303: Half the chairs in this classroom need to be replaced. A lot of wiring sticking up from the floor around student stations. Room 515: A lot of wiring sticking up from the floor around instructor and student stations. ¾ Dance studio needs a sprung floor Safety Issues ¾ Parking lot at night ¾ Parking lots around the arts complex‐‐tall grasses inside the lot can conceal pedestrians and cars. Over all night time security is inadequate. Upper campus night lighting does not seem adequate. Heating/Cooling ¾ Air Conditioning and heating don't work properly. Air Conditioning comes on very cold winter days, and heat blasts on hot days; different parts of each building are affected differently: cold sections and hot sections at the same time. Noises from building infrastructure in classrooms and offices. Cabrillo Planning & Research Office, Adjunct open‐ended text, page 1 of 1.
