Other Accomplishments:
1) Enhance and Strengthen the Department’s position in the local, regional and national art community. This was achieved
by faculty art exhibits at regional and national venues (Fred Dalkey at the Crocker Art Museum, Chris D’Aubert at the Davis Art
Center, Michael LeCompte and Anne Gregory at Eccentrique Gallery and others). Our students also had many shows at local
galleries, some organized by the faculty. Additionally, our faculty contributed art to the KVIE Annual Art Auction, had work
commissioned by the Sacramento Kings organization, judges local art exhibits, and had work selected for the Art in Public Places
Commission (Kathleen Noonan and Eun Cho). Our faculty were recognized for their position in the art community; this is
especially exemplified by the nomination of Fred Dalkey to the National Academy of Art and Design. Our faculty also sit on
numerous Museum and Gallery Boards of Directors 2) Increase connections with K-12 Art departments. The Department has
created a Faculty liaison with the local High School Art Departments to increase our communication and connections with our
primary feeder schools. We continue to lead numerous tours of our facilities for High School classes. 3) Establish Work Related
programs to assist our students in careers in Art. We are in the process of establishing an internship program that will begin the
in Fall of 2002 with the Crocker Art Museum

Justification
The current Art Department is utilizing outdated, frequently unusable, and extremely
unsafe buildings spaces. We have outgrown our facility, and cannot repair many of
the items that are necessary to ensure a quality education for our students. In order
to support our program, and to ensure a high transfer rate to four-year colleges and
Universities, we must be able to teach our classes in well-lit, spacious, adequately
ventilated and safe classrooms.
Needed in order to replace retired faculty and to reach full-time/part-time ratio as
mandated by the state.
We have already hired the faculty member to teach this new program, but are unable
to offer the courses, as we do not have adequate space or equipment necessary.
This is a program that will establish our department among the leaders in the new
artistic technology, and we must provide a certain level of equipment and space in
order to proceed with the implementation of this program.
Currently our Ceramic, Jewelry and printmaking classrooms do not have adequate
ventilation nor air-filtration systems in place. This creates a substantial health
hazard for our students, staff and faculty and must be remedied to comply with State
and Federal regulations
The Art Department has not had an increase in our operating budget in many years,
yet we continue to serve an increasing number of students per year. We are
serving this growing population on steady or dwindling revenue, and cannot continue
to sustain quality education without this increase in the operating budget. This
increase would aid in the development of new slides for our Art History Courses, and
other materials for our courses, which are presently being purchased for SCC by the
faculty.
By upgrading and updating our audio-visual equipment in our classrooms, we would
be able to maintain the highest standards of visual teaching. Currently, we are often
unable to utilize certain visual technologies, due to that lack of adequate equipment
in our classrooms
See above
We are currently using borrowed and outdated equipment, and are using some
equipment that is unsafe. We must replace items that have been used for 10+
years, although they only have a life expectancy of 5. Many of the items we do have
cannot be fixed, due to the lack of available parts to fix them.
