Committee Reports/Division Issues:
 Andy:
 Books are starting to arrive
 There has not been HVAC at the Compton Center for a year. Some of the chocolate items
cannot be sold in the summer months.
 Sales are down 10%.
 Bob:
 There has been a positive change in attitude since Mr. Lasnik sent off the letter to the
company. Still don’t know if they have the ability to perform the job.
 The window of opportunity has closed to do work in the Marsee Auditorium and Campus
Theatre due to the failure of performance in this project. We are looking for future dates
for these two venues.
 Janice & Tom C:

Will have a refined list soon.
 Tom B:
 Furniture is being delivered to the Social Science building. Classroom furniture will be
delivered next week.
 Contractor for the restroom renovation would like to punch out this week on phase II. (Per
Jo Ann phase II will not start until she has a talk with the company owner.)
 Mike:
 Campus police training went well. Officers from the Compton Center and Gardena Police
were involved in this training exercise.
 Officer has to be willing to give their life to protect our students, if they can’t, then they are
in the wrong profession.
 Similar “Campus Police Training” has been scheduled for the Winter Break for the center
with the involvement of the Sheriff’s department.
 Yesterday a murder suspect that Gardena PD was looking for was spotted in the drive
through of McDonald across from the campus. Suspect was taken into custody without any
incident.

member who did work for the Center but currently is no longer with the campus. This
faculty member has not turned in the keys or final grades
 John:
 Southland was not at Compton Center on Monday.
 Claudio and John will be at Datatel Conference on Wednesday and Thursday.
 On Portal there is a report on the number of students that have used Degree Audit and the
Education Plan. On record, 10,000 students have used Degree Audit and 3,000 students
have used Education Plan. These numbers could have duplication.
 Rocky:
 The President would like to know: What is going on with Accounts Payable at Compton
Center? Why? and How do you fix it?
 End of accrual is on Monday.
 Sent an email to Lynn asking her for assistance until August 23rd.
