One of the guiding values at Valencia Community College in Florida is “Anyone
can learn anything …under the right conditions.”
Come to consensus either in support or opposition of this statement – list
the reasons why.

Generative Conversation – Dr. Jacalyn Askin, Dr. Shirley Green
•
Over the next three years, what strategies should PVCC use to navigate an
uncertain budget climate that will include budget adjustments (due to
reallocations, increased operational costs and likely cuts)?
•
Dr Askin used power point presentation detailing the state budget, budget
cuts and state aid and how they would impact PVCC. PVCC is expected a 1%
reduction ($310,000) for 08/09 and an additional 1% for 09/10. To access
the power point presentation please click on the presentation on the CLC
website.
•
Dr. Green facilitated an information gathering session to gather input on
where and how to implement budget cuts that would have a high and low
impact to PVCC. Below are the results of this information:

Impact
Could Implement This Year
In Between
Future Implementation
 I wish we would consider what
can’t be cut or reduced
 Identify Mission Critical Items –
what can’t be cut
 I wish we could collaborate
with adjacent colleges on low
enrollment classes
 Promote efficiency
 Collaborative marketing
 What if we worked together as
a District to collectively pay for
things that each college
currently is doing – marketing…
 Courses/programs
 Reduce District overhead

 I wish we would eliminate
bureaucracy – eliminate
unnecessary paperwork
 Scheduling facilities ; nonclassroom
 Utilities
 Student email
 What if we implemented one
stop shopping?
 Reduce energy costs
 Reduce paper costs
 Staffing – should every open
position be filled?
 What if we looked at a more
effective way of staffing? If
one department is busy and
another is in a slow period, can
we cross-train employees to
more effectively use our
resources?
 Better utilization of facilities and
staff
o Zoning
o Review of special assignment
contracts
o Scheduling
o Job sharing / integration
o Streamlining operations
 Use facilities more efficiently, i.e.,
Friday/Saturday classes entire
campus is open; few classes being
held
 What if we all were given the
option of working 4 days yearround or a flex day to work from
home; save $ electric / water
 Less adjunct faculty; make faculty
earn their $$
 I wish we could get better at
business practices using self server
SIS
 Student g-mail
 What if we offered classes year
round to increase enrollment
 What if we partnered with other
MCCD schools to reduce costs
 What if enrollment continues to
grow; how will we pay for this?
 I wonder how we reallocate
resources to growing programs

 What if – we rent more of CPA, Q
building, Black Mtn.
 I wonder how to charge more pay
for use
 I wonder if we could do creative
office coverage; employees job
sharing
 Market
 Lease or sell advertising space, e.g.,
baseball field, vehicles, golf netting,
buildings
 Partnerships
 What if we – eliminate all remaining
bond projects (besides Life Sciences
& Q) – unless it is infrastructure
related
 Streamline programs; eliminate
ones not working
 What if – we outsource more
functions / units
 Less permanent faculty, more
Adjunct faculty; we’re cheap and
workaholics
 I wish we could consider larger
classes – efficient growth
 More hybrid – less class time;
combine facilities usage
 Outsource – FA? ??
 Consolidate classes/activities in
fewer buildings
 Hybrid classes to expand
capacity/FTSE generation
 Lease of sell advertising space – golf
net – cars
 Job sharing – flexible staffing among
units
 What if text books were online /
paperback; would students take
more classes?
 What if we offered more courses at
lower cost to the college – i.e.,
hybrid courses
 I wish we had more data about
enrollments; class sizes
 I wonder how we reduce or
eliminate programs or services that
no longer work
 I wonder how we can reduce costs
without eliminating any positions or
jobs

Could Implement This Year
LOW
$
Impact
 Listening sessions with constituents

doing and why – (to prevent
kneejerk reactions)
 Turn lights off when you’re done;
use less lights
 Change the temp like at home
 Be a little out of your comfort zone
 Eliminate paper
 Limit entertainment at meetings
and events
 Report waste – water running, lights
on, doors open, etc.
 Turn off computers
 Find repetition & eliminate – “touch
the piece of paper once”
 What if we got rid of some of the
administrative minutia (forms,
steps, processes, barriers)?
 I wonder how we can capitalize on
the displaced workers situations?
 Reduce Summer program to four
days
 I wish we could do a better job of
cross training – got out of “silo
mentality”
 I wonder what other partnerships
we could start / develop that could
create win/wins?
 I wish we could allow faculty and
staff to work more efficiently and
effectively (tele-commute, utilize
flex time schedule better, etc.)
 I wish we could create a tuition
structure that was variable –
(something something) in the
afternoon?
 I wonder how we can do more with
less, when PVCC is already doing
this – must do things better and
smarter
 I wonder if we could cut tuition
costs?
 I wish we could use technology
more and capitalize on alternative
delivery methods
In Between

Future Implementation
 Additional rental income from outside groups
using facilities during our down time
 Expand our community involvement
 I wish we could standardize SIS business
practices to make the system work well for us
and students
 I wish we had reliable student enrollments
data for forecasting, measuring, assessing
final performance, grow smart/strategically

could take more classes
 What if resources could be shared / rent
books; is there such a thing?
 Recycle, Reuse, Re-invent, Re-think
 Transport/buses; bringing in students from
H.S.
 Can we do some creative/flexible scheduling
of work hours

o Non-essential parts
o Expensive paper
 i.e., just do basics
 fix our web site to be the Best it can be
 how to fully leverage technology
 student email
 I wish we could have the courage to
implement the out of the box ideas – try
failure is okay
 I wonder how we will afford the costs of
employees, resources, equipment for the new
buildings down the road? How will we pay for
all of this?
 I wonder if our students will feel or do they
feel safe and secure on our campus? (in light
of cuts)
 I wonder how we can update our campus with
the new technology that is our there
 What if we made sure of our infrastructure at
PVCC before our expenditure at Black Mtn.
 I wonder if we are over extending our
resources with our new building and remodels

Student Life and Leadership:
 Rock the Vote – 10/1 – 10/22
The PVCC Rock the Vote Campaign was kicked off on October 1 with KTAR radio
station, bands, food, fun, freebies and more. During the event, voter
registration was facilitated by Student Life Staff, the Black Student Union,
Young Democrats and Project Vote (a student group from a Communications
class). Following the Presidential and Vice Presidential Debates, Student Life
showed the debates in the Student Union and voter registration and
information was available. By the October 6 deadline, PVCC had registered 70
new voters and 78 individuals applied to vote by early ballot. On October 15,
SLC, Partners in Art and Student Life sponsored a “Wear Your Choice” pizza
and t-shirt making event. Students, faculty, and staff, with the assistance of
Partners in Art, decorated 100 t-shirts demonstrating political awareness and
activism. Voter information was available and 20 pizzas were eaten! On

will provide students, faculty and staff with information about Arizona’s 2008
Ballot Initiatives.
 Low Ropes/Teambuilding Facilitation – 9/17– 10/21
As part of the Experiential Leadership Initiative and the Emerging Leaders
program, the Office of Student Life and Leadership conducts low ropes
trainings periodically throughout the year. Low Ropes Experiences enrich
students’ learning, provide opportunities for students to practice learned
leadership skills and foster collaboration between faculty and staff. Helice
Agria and Ryan Martin have facilitated Low Ropes Training for three
Communications classes this month. Modifications were required given the
9
ongoing construction on campus and negotiations were made with Facilities to
ensure these sessions could be successfully implemented.
 SLC Ice Cream Social with the Dream Team Administration – 10/14
The Office of Student Life and Leadership hosted this event for SLC and
Administrators. The purpose of the event was to provide students the
opportunity to interact with key PVCC administrators and to learn from them.
Additionally, Administrators were able to meet and greet the PVCC student
leaders. 14 students participated representing the SLC executive members and
student club representatives. Paul Dale, Shirley Green, Rick Sheets, Julia
Devous, Laurie Pemberton and Paul Golisch were able to attend as well. SLC
members were asked to submit questions for administrators to respond to and
an informal question and answer session was held. Questions were raised
regarding future class offerings, policies for undocumented students,
enrollment, parking, alumni opportunities, fees for printing, recycling on campus,
and many more. Additionally, suggestions for being more student-friendly and
approachable were made to administrators. Finally, an invitation was made to all
administrators to share their “leadership journey” and was a fitting way to end
the event.
 Staffing Issues This month’s events, programs and services were managed by two full-time
Program Specialists, one temporary Office Coordinator, one 20-hour work study
student, and one interim part-time Director. Creative staff patterns and a lot

 New ID Card System - A new ID card system is being implemented that will
include a new employee and student card design as well as allow students to be
able to swipe their ID cards to release print jobs on the pay for print system.
Eventually employees will only need one card for ID, printing, and building
security via card key swipe once the new door readers are in place. Look for
the marketing campaign soon to get a free re-print.
 Office Migration Update - Most all staff and classrooms on campus have been
upgraded from MS Office 2003/2004 to the new MS Office 2007/2008
version. Anyone who has not been upgraded should call the Help Desk at

session series.
President’s Report, Paul Dale
Diversity and Inclusion Update
 A draft college plan for Diversity and Inclusion has been developed. For
more information see
http://www.pvc.maricopa.edu/admin_bios/dale_bio.html Click on the
Diversity and Inclusion link.
 The College is in the process of identifying two Diversity and Inclusion goals
to focus on for 2008-2009.
 An open discussion on the “state of college diversity” was held during
Learning Week. Twenty PVCC employees participated.
14
Under the direction of Michele Marion, a series of educational programs
have been scheduled with the overriding topic of “You Can’t Understand
Culture Without Understanding Religion.”
 Through PVCC’s E&OLT and with Michaelle Shadburne’s leadership, the
College is hosting the six part MOSIAC series with over twenty PVCC
employees participating.
 Norma Chandler, Coordinator of Job Placement, will be supporting the
implementation of the Diversity and Inclusion Plan as part of her current
role. In the very near future, the following will be completed: the diversity
web site will be updated; a college-wide diversity and inclusion program
calendar will be developed; and diversity and inclusion news will be included in
College publications.
So why is diversity and inclusion important to the college? There are many reasons,
but the following are guiding us this year.
According to Harper (2008) it has been shown that student interaction with
diverse peers has a strong effect on cognitive outcomes including critical thinking
and reasoning, perspective taking, and openness to cognitive dissimilarity and
challenge.
We need to ensure that student success at PVCC is equally distributed across all
socioeconomic, ethnic, age, and gender groups.
In order for students to be successful in the global economy and to effectively
interact in a diverse society, they need to be inter culturally competent.
