Due to the recent upward trend in IP enrollment, consideration should be given to upgrading the Outreach Specialist position back to its original classification of Outreach Coordinator and increased to full-time status. Likewise, a supply budget for materials, mileage reimbursement etc. should be increase per the Revised October 22, 2012 Source of funding Comments (include any modifications to goals due to feedback, discussion and/or evaluation – refer to data when possible) Goal Met None During the spring semester 2014, all funding was fully depleted. The Office of the Dean of Student Services provided some one-time funding for purchase of some promotional items to cover the closing of the spring 2014 semester. Thus, with the exception of the general fund contribution which covers 60% of the Outreach Specialists position, there are no more funds available for any type of supply or promotional items, mileage reimbursement and office supplies, necessary for outreach activities. . This situation has been reported to the Vice President of Student Services. While the enrollment has fluctuated in the past, we are now below our state CAP enrollment as a college. This may soon cause a serious drop in general fund revenues affecting the entire campus. Thus, serious consideration should given to upgrading this position back to the level of an Outreach Coordinator and returning it to a fulltime position. No None IP above recommendation to support the activities of an Outreach and Recruitment Coordinator. This will become critical as the State of California begins to raise the enrollment cap at Cabrillo College.
