2. Minutes from the May 20th meeting: Motion made to approve unanimous with the following revision of
the wording in Section 8f:
“The 2013 SAC Election consisted of 305 staff votes out of 647 eligible voters, for a total participation
rate of 47.1% across campus. Participation in the election resulted in a 72% increase over last year,
with 177 staff votes tallied in 2012. Fifteen Support Personnel (SP) received nominations and seven
individuals accepted their nomination. Fifteen Administrative & Professional (A&P) received
nominations and six individuals accepted their nomination. The online program Election Buddy was
utilized for the first time at a nominal cost of $100.00.” Motion made to accept the revision by Guy
Cicinelli; seconded by Robert Green; Approved unanimously.
3. Public Comment: none
4. Old Business (these items may not be discussed at every meeting however they need to remain on SAC
radar) :
a. Revision of Employee Evaluation Process - Dr. Rollo was not here to report what, if anything, would
happen after taking the SAC request to the Cabinet. Carried to July meeting.
b. Workplace bullying - Motion made by Guy Cicinelli and seconded by Nicholas Gallo to refer this
matter to Personnel Policies committee for the committee to make a recommendation that will be
discussed at the next SAC meeting. Passed.
5. New Business:
a. SAC Charter Updates – Amber Pacheco. This is an ongoing project which will be finalized for this
revision in the Spring 2014 so that staff will have an opportunity to vote on the recommended
changes during staff elections. If you have any changes that you would like to recommend, please
provide to Amber Pacheco.
b. Election of new University and Planning Budget Council representatives and backups – Sal
Catalfamo – The names of Eric Balmer, Todd Caraway and Kristen Manjerovic were selected to be
sent to Dr. Bradshaw’s office for appointment to the Planning and Budget Council.

various issues facing FGCU staff, and follow up to ensure appropriate measures are taken whenever
possible.
