The soccer field will not be turned into a parking lot as originally proposed. Three Classified Staff on our campus were affected by the Managed Hiring Process: Ileana Gadea, formerly High School Relations, has taken the position of Program Director of the University Center at Canada, Linda Herda, formerly Switchboard Operator, has moved to the Security Office here at Skyline and has taken the switchboard with her. Lisa Courto in Student Activities is still undecided. At the end-of-the-year Faculty/Staff Celebration, $1000 was raised for the scholarship. Bonnie Cagno/Learning Center and Joyce King-Sultana/Cashierís Office were honored as retirees. The Bookstore Staff and Stanlee Garriott/Business Division were given Special Recognition Awards.

Privatization of the Bookstore Sally Welch told us of the Districtís plans for putting the privatization management of the bookstore out for bid/proposals. A decision on this may be made as soon as Spring í04. CSEA has told the bookstore employees that they will guarantee their jobs for 5+ years.

Institutional Planning Council Bernie Blackman distributed a handout and made a presentation explaining the new Institutional Planning Council that is going to be formed.  It is an extension of the Strategic Planning Committee. It will be a collaborative effort with the Shared Governance Committee. Itís purpose is to identify and describe plans and committees so we can improve our planning, evaluating and communication processes.  We need to be ready to show the Accreditation Team that will visit us in March 2004 that we are working toward making progress in improving our weaknesses.

Resource Development Committee Sandy Irber attended the meeting as a guest to ask for two Classified Staff members to join this new committee that will be starting in the fall. The purpose of the committee is to broaden the involvement and participation into the college and community to assist in fundraising efforts. The committee will probably meet on a quarterly basis and will include planning for the 35th Year Celebration of Skyline College.

Next meeting will be Thursday, August 7, 2003, room 5131, 2:00 PM.

Respectfully submitted by Linda Herda, Secretary
