BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION DIVISION DIVISION MEETING #1 MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1998 BOARD ROOM PRESENT: Jerry Baker, Tina Clark, Gail Dalton, Debbie Fischer, Dan Flynn, Jane Goforth, Carolyn Henry, Carla Hogan, Jim Jory, Carolyn Keefe, Ron Lafreniere, Cheryl Laufle, Marcia Liaw, Marilu Neally, Larry Packwood, Sally Rollman, Bob Shields, Barbara Snow, David Starr, Phyllis Topham, Karen Toreson. ABSENT: Burt Weston (sabbatical) WELCOME Carolyn Henry welcomed the division members and introduced the following new faculty members: Jerry Baker, Purchasing Management; Bob Shields, Computer Applications; Cheryl Laufle, Business Administration; and Gail Dalton, Business Technology. Marilu Neally was introduced as the new division secretary. SPECIAL PRESENTATION President Gary Oertli was introduced and made a special presentation to Ron Lafreniere for his 30 years of service to Shoreline Community College. FURNITURE FOR 1200 BUILDING The furniture for Room 1202 will be shipped from Wisconsin on October 2. For Fall Quarter, the computer classes in 1202 will be moved to 2402, and the lecture classes in 2402 will be moved to 1202. Carolyn has been in contact with the Media Center to obtain a projection system, a VCR, and a monitor for 1202. No decision has been made about when or if these classes will return to their original rooms during fall quarter. No announcement has been made on when balancing the ventilator system in 1200 building will occur. Carolyn will check on this and report back. CURRICULUM REVISION – COSMETOLOGY Debbie Fischer and Tina Clark reported on curriculum revisions they worked on for Cosmetology during the summer on extended contract. These revisions will allow a student to complete the course in four quarters rather than six, and all students will receive a certificate. This new curriculum will be more competitive with other cosmetology programs and will begin Fall Quarter 1998. Cosmetology will now run year-round which means that clients will not be lost during class breaks. A proposed calendar for 1998-1999 was distributed. Debbie and Tina are still working on the high school program. Holly Moore and Larry Reid have already approved these changes. Sally, Debbie, and Tina will need to present them to the Curriculum Council during Fall Quarter for final approval. A:\MINUTES MAY 99.doc

BUSINESS DIVISION MINUTES September 21, 1998 Page 2 Ron Lafreniere moved and Karen Toreson seconded a motion that all these changes be approved. During the discussion, Jim Jory asked about staffing of the salon when Debbie and Tina are not under contract. Staffing for this position is still under discussion and will be sent to the Federation for their input. The motion passed unanimously. NEED FOR ADVISORS Carolyn asked for volunteers for advising. Phyllis Topham will advise on September 23 at 10:30 a.m. Carla Hogan will advise on September 28 from 5-6 p.m. Barbara Snow will advise on September 29 from 5-6 p.m. It was suggested that the Business Division be excused from advising on September 25 since this is when Carolyn Henry’s retirement party is being held. ELECTION OF ASSISTANT DIVISION CHAIR FOR FALL QUARTER 1998 Larry Reid has instructed Carolyn to hold an election for an Assistant Division Chair to replace Sally Rollman during Fall Quarter 1998. Jim Jory nominated Tina Clark for this position. Bob Shields moved that the nominations be closed. The motion passed and was declared a unanimous decision. ELECTION OF TENURE REVIEW COMMITTEE FOR BOB SHIELDS The Business Division faculty nominated Dan Flynn, Phyllis Topham, and Larry Packwood as their representatives for Bob Shields’s Appointment Review Committee. It was moved and seconded that a unanimous vote for these three division representatives be cast. Motion carried. ELECTION OF DIVISIONAL REPRESENTATIVES A new Business Division representative is needed on the SCCFT Executive Board, which meets most Thursday from 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. Its focus is on contractual matters.

BUSINESS DIVISION MINUTES September 21, 1998 Page 3 EXTRA CONTRACT DAYS AND COMMITTEES These forms have already been placed in faculty mailboxes. Please fill them out and return them to Sally Rollman this week. It was suggested that a chair be designated for each committee. Jim Jory reminded faculty that there are six guerilla days per year. These are extra contract days that should be identified on the form. Advising days and attendance at professional conferences and at Shoreline’s graduation count for these guerilla days. Because of the new budget process and its relationship to program planning, all faculty members serve on the budget committee. BUSINESS TECHNOLOGY/BUSINESS COMPUTERS STUDY CENTER The new Business Technology /Business Computer Study Center in the newly remodeled 1200 Building is a response to the state auditor’s mandate that one additional hour be arranged for BusTc 100 Keyboarding and BusCP 105 Business Computer Applications in order to fulfill state requirements. Professional/ Technical students have requested tutoring for their courses. Karen Toreson announced that Gail Dalton will be tutoring in the new Business Technology/Business Computer Study Center for 20 hours per week and will be paid for this from Holly Moore’s budget. This Study Center is designated for professional/technical students and is not an “open lab” time. Students in Business Computer classes will be asked to log in their time so a record can be compiled. COMPUTER TECHNICIAN REPLACEMENT Discussion was held on the possibility of converting the O.A. II position that Toby Salerno had into an Instructional Tech position to help the faculty with computer-related situations in the Business Division. This new Instructional Tech position would be funded from Business Division funds and jointly managed with Technical Support Services. This person would work a variable schedule, possibly late afternoon and early evening hours. Concern was expressed that the money and services for this position might be diverted to Technical Support Services. Karen Toreson moved and Phyllis Topham seconded the motion to reclassify the current O.A. II position to an Instructional Tech position and that a job description be submitted to the Business Administration Division. Motion passed unanimously. Marcia Liaw and Karen Toreson will continue working on this. A:\MINUTES MAY 99.doc

BUSINESS DIVISON MINUTES September 21, 1998 Page 4 EVENING HOURLY There may be money available for an hourly to work some evening hours. The evening hourly person will support the Business Technology Center and the rest of the division. Marcia will work on this. Carolyn will check with Ruth Clark and Paulette Fleming further on this. RETIREMENT PARTY FOR CAROLYN HENRY Campus wide notices have been sent for Carolyn’s retirement party on Friday, September 25, from 10:00 a.m.to noon in the 1000 Building. Sally expressed appreciation for the help she has received in planning this party for Carolyn. UPDATE ON WEB PROGRAM Karen Toreson reported that the program is moving ahead. Dan Flynn and Phyllis Topham are working on new classes and collaborating with VCT and Humanities faculty. Another DACUM will be held this fall. Equipment for this program has been purchased and is being stored in the 1600 Building. BUSINESS DIVISION MEETINGS FOR 1998-1999 Business Division meetings have been held for a number of years on the first Friday of each month starting around 12:30 p.m. after most classes end on Fridays. Ron Lafreniere proposed that division meetings be held on days other than on Friday afternoons. Carla suggested that meetings start at 6:30 a.m. This topic will be discussed further at the next division meeting in November. There will be no division meeting on Friday, October 2 (next week). PROGRAM PLANNING Chuck Fields was introduced to lead the discussion on the Program Planning/Assessment and Budgeting process for 1999-2000. Chuck distributed timelines and discussed the prior history of this process. He indicated that the procedure would be split into two sections rather than all being done as one activity last year. The first section will deal with program planning and assessment and will be completed during fall quarter. Budget planning will take place during Winter Quarter 1999. Administrative responses to the planning done by programs during fall quarter will be returned to each program by February 1 along with the budget requests materials. Carla Hogan indicated that it would be helpful if statistics were provided to our programs as we work through this process.

A:\MINUTES MAY 99.doc

BUSINESS DIVISION MINUTES September 21, 1998 Page 5 The following were suggestions from Chuck for completing the Program Planning/Assessment and Budgeting forms: 1. Review Shoreline’s mission statement/purpose. The Strategic Planning Committee will distribute materials for the 1999-2000 planning period. Connect the Strategic Plan to the budgeting process. 2. Each program should establish its own measure of effectiveness. 3. Use statistics to show enrollment and staffing trends. 4. Determine what factors can affect the program. Look to the future and consider trends. 5. For self-assessment, use the three external reviews from last year. Be sure to use the same wording used for accreditation purposes. 6. Report on the goals set last year and whether or not they have been met. 7. Set attainable goals. 8. Make a complete list of the people in each program who participated in this process. 9. Be collaborative and involve everyone. 10. A draft will be distributed campus-wide for comments. Concern was expressed that the prioritized division requests were changed at the next level of participation. This was noticed and recognized as being a major problem in the whole process. Chuck will pass this concern along. Budgeting will be done on a yearly basis, as this is more responsive to changes. The goal is for zero base budgeting for 2000-2001. 14. OTHER BUSINESS Faculty in Computer Applications and Business Technology will meet this Wednesday from 2:30 to 4:00 p.m. No dates have been announced by Holly Moore’s office for program reviews during 1998-1999, but we anticipate being asked to do them this academic year for Purchasing, Accounting, and Computer Applications. The meeting ended with division members sharing how they spent their summer. The meeting adjourned at 2:45 p.m. Marilu Neally

Anyone wishing this information may access it through the Web by typing www.endinfosys.com with full implementation expected during Spring Quarter. The magazine index, Proquest Direct, can be found using www.umi.com , which searches approximately 2,900 magazines with 1,400 in full text and the remainder with bibliographic citations. There is a business module within Proquest Direct titled Washington State News Stand that lists 240 business-related periodical titles. This also lists 17 Washington state newspapers, as well as the Puget Sound Business Journal beginning with 1985.

John has purchased numerous books on business careers and has a film list available. INSTRUCTIONAL TECH REPLACEMENT Marcia Liaw distributed a copy of the position description designed for an Instructional Tech I, which is planned to replace the Office Assistant II position previously held by Tony Salerno, and requested input on it. An on-site person is needed to support faculty who use computers in their classes. After hearing faculty’s ideas on this position, Marcia agreed to rewrite the job duties and place copies in the faculty boxes for approval on Monday morning, November 9.

A:\MINUTES MAY 99.doc

MOTION: Ron Lafreniere moved and Jim Jory seconded a motion that action on the Instructional Tech 1 position be submitted to the faculty for a written vote and that the ballots be returned to Marcia on the afternoon of November 9. The motion passed unanimously. Marcia, Karen and Sally will meet with Jack Hanson, Larry Reid, and Fred Watterson on November 10 to discuss this position. FULL-TIME FACULTY REQUESTS Tina distributed and explained the request for a full-time faculty member for Cosmetology. MOTION: Bob Shields moved and Cheryl Laufle seconded that the full-time position for Cosmetology be approved. Motion passed unanimously. The Business Administration program requested one full-time faculty member with an allocation of two-thirds Purchasing and one-third Business Administration. Tina Clark has prepared the front page of the Full-Time Faculty Position Request form but needs additional input from faculty to complete the second page of this form. There was no motion on this request because of the understanding that it did not have to have Division faculty approval. Computer Applications faculty will also be submitting a request for an additional full-time faculty member because of the growth within the program. During further discussion, it was announced that the Business Technology /Computer Applications area could potentially lose two people. Sally was asked to share the “bad timing” with the request deadline at this time the quarter. ANNOUNCEMENTS Sandra Kirk Roston is the liaison between Business Administration Division and the Counseling Center for 1998-1999. She asked that Marilu place information in the mailboxes for the faculty and staff. Sally indicated that faculty can call Tracy Tripp to get information about becoming Microsoft certified in various areas. These classes are listed on the Web and the first two usually fill up and a third is opened. Faculty can take them on a space available basis. Materials cost between $100 and $200. Sally commended Karen who is certified and recertified in Word and certified in Excel. Karen encouraged everyone to look at the Shoreline Community College website for Business Administration and your program to see how you like it.

A:\MINUTES MAY 99.doc

Sally has looked at the faculty schedules, and it appears that Friday at 12:30 p.m. is still the best time for division meetings. These meetings will be scheduled to last 1 to 1 ½ hours. It was suggested that due to long agendas that we eliminate speakers or that they be limited to 5 or 10 minutes. Jerry Baker explained his interactive/on-line class with Purchasing 190. The class will meet on Monday evenings from 6:00-7:40 p.m. in the interactive room in the 1000 Building. There will be assignments and chats on the web for the remaining 1 hour and 40 minutes. David Johnston will be offering a telecourse for Bus Ad 100 for Winter Quarter, and Cheryl is considering a telecourse for spring quarter. Bob would like to offer accounting classes on-line next year. The on-line classes filled quickly; however, the College is still 50 FTE’s behind and hopes to make them up during Winter and Spring Quarters 1999. Marcia discussed the annual Holiday party. It will be December 4 at 12:30 p.m. There will be a buffet with a $10 donation requested. A white elephant exchange will be held for those who are interested. Sally expressed her appreciation to the Assistant Division Chairs, Tina and Karen, during Fall Quarter. Their job is to work with the programs and to help coordinate activities such as time schedules. A handout was distributed to clarify Jerry Baker’s two-thirds position. Sally thanked Jerry for changing offices so part-time faculty and the temporary Instructional Tech person could use it. Carolyn Keefe’s last day will be November 13, 1998. This position will be filled, and that person will continue to absorb the duties of the Office Assistant II that was held by Toby Salerno when he moved to the Science Division. Marcia and Phyllis distributed a flyer regarding a luncheon at Las Margaritas for Carolyn and her husband on Friday, November 13. A group gift will be purchased. Please respond to Phyllis or Marilu.

CLARIFICATION OF JERRY BAKER’S TWO-THIRDS CONTRACT AS PURCHASING INSTRUCTOR FOR THE BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION DIVISION For the 1998-1999 Academic Year The terms of this two-thirds faculty contract cover only the 1998-1999 academic year and are in accordance with the SCCFT contract currently in effect. This contract must be renewed each year. Some of its provisions arise from agreements of the Joint Union-Management Committee of Shoreline Community College during the 1997-1998 academic year. Because this is a two-thirds contract, the understanding is that Jerry Baker will perform all the normal duties of any full-time faculty member at Shoreline Community College. These duties include but are not limited to: teaching an average of 10 credits over Fall, Winter, and Spring Quarters scheduling at least four 50-minute office hours a week over a regular 5-day work week serving on divisional and college wide committees participating in the Business Administration program area of the Business Division serving on the Purchasing Advisory Committee, and other duties related to the position of Purchasing Instructor as agreed to with the division chair of the Business Administration Division.

LIBRARY/MEDIA CENTER John Backes, Library Director, discussed the necessity of collaborating with others on campus when purchasing equipment and other media devices, and he would give his support to these purchases. It is important to use all equipment efficiently and to show a common need when requesting items in the budget process. Contact Paul Fernandez in the Media Center if you have questions and for price quotes. John indicated that it is faculty preference on whether the items are ceiling mounted or put on a rolling cart. The Media Center will supply a fact sheet listing the models, approximate prices for the items, and shipping by Tuesday, February 16, 1999. (Fact sheet attached) TSS PRESENTATION Steve Fleiger-Holmes spoke on the student e-mail system, which stresses public folders that can be accessed from anywhere in the world. It is hoped that this same system will be implemented for the entire school at a future date. To access this, type zoot.shore.ctc.edu/exchange/root.asp. This program allows both faculty:student and student:student interactions. He asked that faculty use public folders in their classes.

Sylvia explained the $ for the magnifying lamps in Cosmetology would be funded form Perkins funding money. It must be received by May 15, 1999. Other budget requests have until July 7, 1999. This includes 31 copies jof Office 2000 for 1204, 25 copies for 1205, 31 copies for 1202 and a tutor for the study center. Only faculty that teach in the 1200 building will get Office 2000 on their faculty computers - not the rest of the faculty. This means that everyone will not be upgraded at the same time. A possible deletion on the budget is the computer application faculty computer and software with printer for $2,715.00. Karen will write a memo to justify this expenditure. The budget process now has $69,000 for the Business Administration division. This is fourth place for college’s priority list.

Budget Update-Sylvia Orr • A discussion followed concerning various parts of the equipment scores. Jim Jory and Ron LaFreniere commented on the justification for a $6000 computer for Geology. • Ron LaFreniere had concerns over the thinking behind how each item go to the top of the list. • Fans and exhaust systems in the COS building were rated fourth. There are no State or OSHA guidelines for air quality standards. Sylvia stated that she had pushed that they still need to make the building safe for instructors and students. Student Non Attendance Policy-Sylvia Orr • Sylvia asked for feedback from faculty about students who don’t attend class the first week of class. When there is a wait list should the instructor have the prerogative to drop a student for non-attendance? A discussion followed with most faculty agreeing that it should not be a mandatory rule, but should be the choice of each individual instructor. (See Karen Kreutzer’s letter on the listserv.) If the college does initiate a policy be sure to put it in the time schedule so students know what it is. Edmonds publishes their time schedule that if a certain class fills another one will open • Faculty recommended that students be able to sign up for a wait list for classes on a specific date so they know what number they are on the wait list. This practice should be a one-stop shopping event. Students shouldn’t have to go to different departments to sign up on a waiting list. • A related question was “How does the college notify students for nonpayment?” Sometimes financial aid drops students due to non-payment. The student doesn’t know this has happened and then wonders why their name isn’t on the class roster. SCC knows their financial aid will come through eventually. Educators and ADA – Kim Thompson • Kim Thompson thanked the BA faculty for our accommodations for a record number of students needing special accommodations. • She said that if students identify themselves as having learning disabilities the next thing faculty should do is ask them is “Have you seen Kim Thompson?” This protects faculty members. • Students must have current documentation on their disability. $600 is the lowest Kim has heard about for testing; the highest amount was $3000. SCC asks for an adult evaluator. • They have requested a dedicated testing center for three years in the budget process. She said that sometimes they are able to provide computer accommodations. Burt Weston recommended that faculty make sure the PC in the testing center is set up properly. • Call Kim Thompson if you have any further questions.

Other Announcements • Ron LaFreniere referred to an old memo from past-president Ron Bell stating faculty could work off campus on prep days. • Tony Costa plans to increase Gail Dalton’s position to 100%. • The Toshiba laptop computer crashed last week. Jim Jory requested to invoke the warranty and get a new computer with an upgrade. • The in-focus projector from 2402 has been out of the room being repaired for 4 weeks. A part is being ordered for it now. • Sue Geisler was thanked for collecting money and picking up the pizza. • Jim Jory reminded to vote for the Exceptional Faculty Award. Please take a look at it. He encouraged everyone to vote for his or her favorite faculty member. • Karen asked Barb Snow for clarification of the process for selecting a division rep.
