Community Colleges Committee Minutes

Minutes of the Committee on Community Colleges
Meeting – 31 March 2000, St. Louis, Missouri
Present: Elizabeth Kessel (Chair), Juli Jones, Roy Rosenzweig, Gloria Miranda.

We were pleased that we have been given a session for the next annual meeting. The topic will be the technology projects Roy was involved with. Roy will chair the session. Juli and Roy will follow up with lining the session up and will work with Sheri Sherrill. There was discussion as to whether this session should be at a L.A. community college. The consensus was no unless there was a specific reason like the availability of a computer lab. Gloria will coordinate this.

Membership. We talked about some of the problems in the membership of the committee. It was agreed that we wanted balance in terms of region and type of community college. We also wanted to have input with regard to who gets appointed.

We want more community colleges representatives on the service committees in general.

Juli will assume chair in December. She talked about her agenda. Main priority is breaking down the isolation community colleges faculty feel. The OAH can help most here.

We all felt that OAH could help by establishing a community colleges listserv.

Gloria and Nadine will work on a reception at the LA meeting.
