Academic Skills Objective 5
Design, implement and evaluate one new on-line course (College vocabulary). (Also applicable to 1.2, 1.3 and 1.5).
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
RD116 was designed by our adjunct instructor, Sue Phillips, as an online course and offered for the first time Winter 2006. The first year it was offered only winter and spring terms. The combined enrollment for those two terms was 47, compared to 24 for the previous winter and spring when the course was DE-level face-to-face SK45. During 07-08, a fall term section was added. Enrollments for 07-08 are 66. Evaluations are positive, indicating that course content and organization meet the students’ needs and that the on-line format is a preferred delivery mode. The conclusion is that the move to 100 level, and the online delivery, have both contributed to increased enrollments and have provided the students with increased access to a quality, transfer-level elective.

Academic Skills Objective 11
Design, implement, and evaluate two new combined courses (WR102030 at TRC and RD2030 at RWC). (Also applicable to 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3).
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
Student evaluation (Sp 07) shows that, while the students could point to lots of factors that encouraged learning, there was a strong feeling that separate sections of RD20 and RD30 would work better for both the student and the teacher. The instructor (Sue Phillips) is preparing a comparative study looking at this delivery mode as well as IP video and stand-alone classes.

Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
EMT105 is now taught in a blended format and will be transitioned to a primarily online format. EMT185 no longer exists. Replacement classes will be EMT170 and EMT171. Both classes will be packaged in a blended format with some online or independent study and creative scheduling options for classroom and lab time. EMT205 was evaluated and the decision was made to keep a traditional classroom structure for this course.

Fire Science Objective 1
Explore new ways to deliver new and existing curricula.

Human Development Objective 2
Refocus direction of Human Development program: (a) involve HD groups (Counseling, TRiO, Discovery, Student Employment, Support Services) in assessing met and unmet student development needs and if additional HD courses might address these; (b) train new coordinator to begin 2006/07.

Humanities Objective 1
Expand distance delivery options with a new online HUM101-103 offered throughout the year as online WR123 to be offered in Spring term. The department will increase the number of online WR121 offerings next year, and also work throughout the year to blend Web-CT applications into the regular classroom.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
This is our second year of offering the HUM sequence online.

Humanities Objective 3
Realign expectations for the core outcomes in our Writing courses -- WR115, 121, 122 and 123 -- while developing uniform grading standards for papers in these courses. As an adjunct to this, the department will integrate the Library's emphasis on informational literacy into all four of our regular writing courses.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
We have worked with the library to bring information literacy more fully into all our writing courses, from WR 115-WR123. We are still working on uniform grading standards in our various writing courses.

Humanities Objective 4
1. Effective summer 2007, the Humanities department will phase out Criterion as a placement tool for WR 121 and use COMPASS scores for placement into WR 121. We will add a Midterm Writing Exam to all WR 121s—replacing the second take-home paper in that class and counting as 20% of the overall grade— in order to maintain our emphasis on unmediated, on-demand writing.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
Criterion is gone, and all our WR 121s now have a Midterm Writing Exam worth 20% of the overall grade. WR 121 instructors report a very low failing rate on this exam (0-2 students in a class of 25), so moving more students through WR 115, which focuses on in-class writing, seems to be yielding positive results.

Humanities Objective 6
5. In response to budget restrictions, the department will move the Writing Center into the Wiseman Center on the Redwood campus at the end of summer 2007. We will work with the Tutoring Center to make this as smooth a transition as possible—ensuring that the focus of our Writing Center is maintained as we blend our approach with the mission of the Tutoring Center.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
The Writing Center did move into Wiseman as planned, but staff turnover has limited our ability to maintain the original focus of our Writing Center in its new place. In effect, the Writing Center has been absorbed into the larger Tutoring Center.

Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
Using grant funding, we researched, wrote, and published a 6-page with 4 inserts, full color guide to financial success for community college and beyond in both English and Spanish. The publication was was first used in 2006/07 and the 4 inserts were updated in 07/08. A Power Point was created for instructor use and printable versions of each page have been made available on the web. It's used in College orientation sessions (HD10 and HD50), in outreach activities (TRIO, Financial Aid, Admissions, Special Populations, etc.), and in financial aid workshops. It has been received well by staff, students and by the foundations which funded it, to the point of 08/09 and possibly 09/10 versions being funded through a re-application process.

Office of Diversity Objective 2
RWC will offer at least one co-curricular class/activity with history, multi- cultural America, poetry and human sexuality during the 2006/07 school year.

RVC Office of Diversity will offer at least one co-curricula activity per term which enhances the learning objective of one or more instructional classes.

Student Employment Objective 3
Develop part-time assistance in Klamath Falls to provide Occupational Skills Training and other training services to Vocational Rehabilitation referred students. Funding for this position will be written into the Career Workforce Skills Training Grant for 2007-09. If funding is obtained, a qualified part- time temporary or contracted individual will be located and hired by July 2007.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
Funding was obtained through the grant; however, a contractor to provide monitoring services could not be retained. Instead Jane Hagle has been driving to K Falls regularly this year (07-08) to meet with students. This has proved to be costly and inefficient and has produced little FTE. We think this was worth trying but do not plan to continue services in K Falls in 08-09.

Support Services (Disability Services) Objective 1
Draft campus-wide procedure for course substitutions and waivers regarding students with disabilities. (Also applicable to 1.3 and 1.5).

RVC Community Education will increase outreach to the Hispanic community by offering a minimum of four sections.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
Outreach to the Hispanic community with Community Education courses has been postponed due to the loss of our instructor. Our instructor is paid a percentage of the enrollment. Enrollment is so poor in the sections offered, the instructor is unable to pay for fuel to attend. One Hispanic infant/toddler childcare course was offered to the Hispanic daycare population.

Academic Skills Objective 9
Design and implement marketing plan for TRC Learning Resource Center testing services to promote (a) telecourse and web course testing and (b) non-RCC testing. (Also applicable to 1.1, 1.6 and 3.1).
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
E-mail invitations were sent to all telecourse and web course instructors inviting them to use the TRC Learning Resource Center Testing Centers as a third proctored testing site for all students who wished to test at the Table Rock location. Many instructors made that choice available to their students; and even if the students failed to indicate TRC as their preferred testing site, many instructors still sent tests to the TRC LRC. Students expressed their appreciation to be able to test nearer their homes and classes. Non RCC testers still contact the testing center, consult the RCC testing center web pages, or obtain schedules from the outside agencies about tests offered at TRC. A comprehensive brochure for the non-RCC testing offered at TRC has not been completed.

Social Science Objective 4
Social Science: Explore offering Psych 101 en Español for possible cross- listed credit, e.g. Psych and Foreign Language credit . . . Spanish/English/ Psychology credit. (Also applicable to 1.1).
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
Exploration continues......

Counseling Objective 9
Develop and implement a career/transition website that will enable students to identify career goals, tie those goals to curricular offerings at RCC and effectively market their skills to secure employment upon acquisition of the requisite skills. The website will provide a database that will enable RCC to measure the extent of served populations and to create marketing and communication programs to reach larger portions of our served communities. In addition, the website search agent function will enable RCC staff to communicate training and employment opportunities to students as we become aware of them through a filtered internal email system that is built into the website. Staff members in key advising positions will be available at key points in the web pathway to personally assist students. These staff members will be offered training in career facilitation by a counselor on staff with national certification as a Career Development Facilitator Instructor through the National Career Development Association.

Allied Health - Nursing Objective 1
Build FTE through slight increase in number of admitted students (Nursing), participation in recruitment efforts, retention of in-program students. Action plan: --Admit 36 students to first year of Nursing program (rather than 32) based on increased utilization of high fidelity simulation and continuation of program expansion grant funds from local hospitals. --Participate in annual "El Mundo" day with focus on recruitment of Latino/Latina students and in other high school recruitment efforts. --Continue with plan to mentor transition or re-entry students by partnering them with another successful program student, focus on better transition to testing processes, inform transitioning students of funding resources; e.g. Job Council (for final year of program). Instructors will continue to work one-on-one or in small groups with all ADN and PN students who perform poorly on exams. Obtain FTE for college by recording multiple reviews and study sessions faculty members hold for students. Outcome measure: Monitor impact of increased number of students in first year. Compare ADN program attrition in '07-'08 with '06-'07 and with 2005- 06 and monitor PN program attrition to ensure typical high retention continues. Monitor average age of admitted students to see if any significant change from past years. (This objective supports RCC Keys 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5.)

Business Technology Objective 3
Increase recruitment efforts of area high school students by having full- time faculty members in the department select a high school in each county to visit during the year (both 2006/07 and 2007/08) and present information (advising guides, promotional brochures, referral cards, marketing posters, Power Point presentation) regarding the professional-technical and transfer programs offered by the Business Technology Department. (Also applicable to 1.1 and 4.1).
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
High School Outreach at RCC was not involved in Career Fairs as in the past. No high schools were visited by Business faculty in Jackson County; the Gladiola Alternative Campus of Grants Pass High School was visited this year and 2+2 articulation agreements for BT100 Computer Keyboarding and CS125ww Word Processing Applications were initiated. Business Technology posters, TRIO information, FAFSA forms, and advising guides were distributed.

Criminal Justice Objective 3
The Criminal Justice Program will plan, develop, and implement a program- specific web site to: 1) support current students, 2) serve as a resource for current and prospective students, 3) serve as a marketing and recruiting tool, and 4) serve as a link between the program and agencies served by the program.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Not Met
This objective was identified for the 2007-2008 academic year. In November of this year department priorities changed dramatically to focus on the Justice Education and Training Center proposal. This focus resulted in the elimination of the department web site objective as a priority.

Academic Skills Objective 7
Design and evaluate system for capturing FTE for informal instructor/student meetings (through tutoring centers). (Also applicable to 4.1).
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
This process was developed during the 2006-07 year. An instructor prints out a roster for the class, notes when the session took place, how long it was, and which students attended. Then the instructor sends that information to the Lead Instructor for that campus Tutoring Center. Some departments are very good at remembering to send rosters with students identified and times that the students were tutored. Not all departments do this. One possible improvement would be to develop a better system for informing and reminding faculty about this process.

Academic Skills Objective 8
Design and implement marketing plan for TRC Learning Resource Center tutoring services. (Also applicable to 1.1 and 4.3)
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
The marketing plan to this point has included 1. designing and distributing cards listing hours and services to students in classes, 2. posting a notice, with cards to pick up, in the front entrance of TRC, and 3. printing bookmarks which advertise both the Learning Resource Center services and the online tutoring service, for distribution within the Learning Center and in the bookstore. Evaluation: The development of this plan is a work in progress.

Financial Aid Objective 3
Provide holistic in-person loan counseling to assist students who face high educational debt in evaluating and planning for integrated success, both academically and financially.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
In 06/07 and 07/08, we created an extended loan application process for students who have cumulative educational debt of $15,000 or more. In order to certify additional eligibility, we require a one-hour, in-person session where we review academic and financial standing as well as projected repayment planning given career target. These sessions are provide once/week on both Redwood and Riverside campuses. They have been tremendously successful in the eyes of students who consistently report that the information was not only very beneficial, but that they wish they'd participated in such a workshop at the onset of their academic/borrowing history. Not only do we encourage minimal borrowing, but we strongly encourage students to participate in scholarship application processes and work on balancing their personal budgets over the duration of their education in such a way as to support comfortable repayment ability.

Office of Diversity Objective 1
Evaluate a college-wide diversity plan by scheduling a quarterly meeting with identified college staff.

For the Nursing Program, compared to 62% retention for class of 2005 and 79% retention for class of 2007, current 89% retention for class of 2008 is high and above the benchmark we set of 85%. (3 students left the program relatively early in first year because of personal issues.) The Practical Nursing program admitted 16 students last year and 15 graduated, and admitted 16 this year and so far has retained all 16. The Nursing Assistant course admitted and retained 16 students in fall and enrolled 16 for the spring course and has retained 15.

Embracing the best in everyone. Openness to cultural diversity is a hallmark of RCC's Riverside Campus. In the period 2006-2008, this campus will work to support an expanded outreach and service program by 5% to meet the learning needs of the Latino community.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
RVC’s Services and Outreach for Latinos (SOL) committee created a mission statement to strengthen RVC as a Latino-serving community of learning. Karolina Thompson was hired as the Latino Programs Coordinator. Karolina has been working with the Oregon Leadership Institute (OLI) and Club Latino student groups as well as several outside agencies to bring Latinos much needed information on how to access higher education. OLI has grown to 20 + registered students who provide mentoring to over 40 Latino/a high school students to assist with life skills and how to access college resources such as financial aid and scholarships.

ABE/GED Objective 2
Increase the percentage of students who complete twelve or more hours of instruction as a result of the new student orientation that will be piloted with RVC ABE/GED students during the summer of 2007. Use the TOPS data base to compare the percentage of students retained in the past with those who go through the new orientation process.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
In the year 2006–07, 21% of our students did not attend at least 12 hours. That is of 1,993 students, 417 did not attend at least 12 hours. After changing the orientation process at the 2 largest centers for most of the 2007-08 school year, that percent dropped to 14%. That is of 2,066 students, only 289 attended less than 12 hours.

ABE/GED Objective 3
Focus on a better understanding of federally mandated accountability measures and processes as the state moves to a partial "pay for performance" formula. This focus will include increasing retention and increasing the number of students who are post tested after an appropriate number of hours of study. The department will restructure its new student orientation to include goal setting and study skills, exploring the possibility of a 12 hour orientation. Key Reference: # 1.1, #1.5 Full-time faculty members have developed a goal setting unit that will be incorporated into the orientation process for new basic skills and GED preparation students. View on the “AllOfRCC” drive and look in the folder titled “ABE.”
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
The new orientation class is being presented with good results at 2 of our campuses. Retention calls are made at all centers and post testing is being emphasized at staff meetings. Goal-setting and study skills have been incorporated into the new 12-hour orientation. Strategies were brainstormed for getting a better post testing rate and various new practices were tried as appropriate for each center.

ABE/GED Objective 4
Explore and expand transition of students into credit classes by finding a way to give TRC ABE/GED students short hands-on educational experiences in the professional technical departments that are housed at TRC. A minimum of two of these experiences will be provided during the 2007-08 school year.

Accomplishment Extent: Objective Not Met
This objective was identified for the 2007-2008 academic year. In November of this year department priorities changed dramatically to focus on the Justice Education and Training Center proposal. This focus resulted in the elimination of the program handbook objective as a priority.

Academic Skills Objective 12
Collect data on the effectiveness of the exams in DE-level writing and reading classes.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
Reading classes: We have focused on the RD30 final exam and gathered item analyses for the multiple choice portion of the exam over the past two years. Interpretation of the figures is difficult, and will be an ongoing discussion. In addition, the new focus on outcomes and relevant assessment measures will lead to a new discussion of the relevance and effectiveness of the current RD30 final exam. Writing classes: We have gathered data on the scores and passing rates of all students in WR10, 20, and 30 on the “In-Class Writing Final” which is holistically scored. The process provides constant feedback to faculty because the papers are scored by the entire staff of AS writing instructors, and discussion of norms and scoring standards are discussed at each session. Comparison of Winter 2007 to Winter 2008 passing rates show a slight increase: WR10: 87% in Winter 2007 vs. 92% in Winter 2008. WR20: 70% in Winter 2007 vs. 73% in Winter 2008. WR30: 86% in Winter 2007 vs. 88% in Winter 2008.

Academic Skills Objective 12
Evaluate the success of the new 100-level AS courses.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
RD120, Critical reading and Thinking (formerly SK41, Critical Thinking): Comparative enrollments: SK41, 2005-06: 132 (41 web, 91 F2F) RD120: 2006-07: 55 (2 F2F ind. Study, 53 web) RD120: 2007-08: All Web: 45. Enrollments have dropped quite a bit. When the course was changed to 100 level (by necessity based on FA requirements), we saw a drop in numbers which eventually led to canceling all F2F sections and offering the course only via the web, beginning W07. The drop in numbers reflects this change, no doubt. However the comments in the student evaluations suggest that the course is more appropriately a 100-level course in its rigor. RD116, College Vocabulary (formerly SK45) RD116 was designed by our adjunct instructor, Sue Phillips, as an online course and offered for the first time Winter 2006. The first year it was offered only winter and spring terms. The combined enrollment for those two terms was 47, compared to 24 for the previous winter and spring when the course was DE-level face-to-face SK45. During 07-08, a fall term section was added. Enrollments for 07-08 are 66. Evaluations are positive, indicating that course content and organization meet the students’ needs and that the on-line format is a preferred delivery mode. The conclusion is that the move to 100 level, and the online delivery, have both contributed to increased enrollments and have provided the students with increased access to a quality, transfer-level elective. RD115, Speed Reading (Formerly RD40) RD40, 2005-06: 143 RD115, 2006-07: 185 RD115, 2007-08: 275 There has been significant growth in enrollment during the past year. We added a section during fall term, and we have kept that additional section on the schedule for Fall 2008. This seems to be a popular course as a transfer-level elective.

Human Development Objective 1
Increase student success as measured by retention rates and GPA: (1) promote HD 50 and HD 100 classes for new students. Increase numbers completing these courses form 0-25% of new students completing orientations; and (2) conduct quantitative study with matched sample control group (placement test scores and age) to determine if significant differences exist between the GPAs and attrition rates between those who complete the Osprey New Student Orientations as compared with those who don't.

Humanities Objective 5
1. Effective summer 2007, the Humanities department will phase out Criterion as a placement tool for WR 121 and use COMPASS scores for placement into WR 121. We will add a Midterm Writing Exam to all WR 121s—replacing the second take-home paper in that class and counting as 20% of the overall grade— in order to maintain our emphasis on unmediated, on-demand writing.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
Criterion is gone, and all our WR 121s now have a Midterm Writing Exam worth 20% of the overall grade. WR 121 instructors report a very low failing rate on this exam (0-2 students in a class of 25), so moving more students through WR 115, which focuses on in-class writing, seems to be yielding positive results.

Massage Therapy Objective 3
Explore designing a two-year associate's degree linked closely to nursing, physical therapy, and sports medicine pre-requisites. (Also applicable to 1.1).
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Not Met
This idea was explored and discussed but there is no incentive from the Oregon Board of Massage Therapists at this time to pursue an AA degree. We decided to put more effort into developing community and continued education courses instead.

Mathematics Objective 2
The Mathematics Department will continue to pursue measures to improve retention and success in the developmental and transfer level Math courses.

Social Science Objective 10
Human Services: Explore cross-listing Human Services classes with Psychology, Sociology, Criminal Justice and others. Need to make sure prerequisites are maintained. (Also applicable to 1.1 and 4.1).
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Not Met
There is no easy process to do this. There is no list of transfer classes at the state level. We do not have the staff to do this piecemeal.

Through the diligence of the Student Records team the degree audit program is up and running. It is online for use by students. There have been several group trainings and individual trainings provided by Sharon Clark. The training will be on going as will our department's expanded use of the applications batch processes and reporting functions.

Riverside Campus Objective 2
Shooting for the Stars. Riverside Campus is committed to retaining and graduating its students. Through an improved master schedule and pro-active advising, Riverside supports efforts to increase the number of students transferring from Basic Skills programs to college credit classes by an increase of 3% over 2005-2006 levels.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Not Met
There was actually a drop in ABS college credit enrollees at Riverside from 63 students in 05-06 to 51 in 06-07. The college as a whole, however, stayed flat: 119 in 05-06 to 118 in 06-07.

Business Technology Objective 5
Increase enrollment/FTE by 5% annually within the CWE program by: (1) developing CWE promotional materials for potential employers; (2) developing at least three new CWE sites annually (2006/07 and 2007/08) in each county; and (3) using the advising process to promote CWE as elective credit to students.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
In 06-07, CWE generated 11.27 FTE (169 credits by 43 students). In 07-08, CWE generated 10.46 FTE (157 credits by 37 students). The number of students enrolling in CWE decreased by 14%, but the number of credits and FTE remained fairly stable. Unlike a regular class, enrollment in CWE is difficult to project. Fifteen new CWE sites (8 in Jackson County and 7 in Josephine County) were developed during the year. Over half of the students were enrolled in more than the required 3 credits of CWE, indicating that students are seeing CWE as a viable class to use as elective credit.

Computer Science Objective 4
Work with other College departments and the community on development of courses and programs: (1) continue working with Business and Science departments on health care informatics program; (2) establish an advisory committee for networking program and health care informatics program (3) continue working with Asante Health Systems on health care informatics program.

SBDC Objective 1
RCC SBDC will Expand Supervisor’s Academy: Managing People winter term 2007 from a 6-hour course to a 26-hour modularized course. The department objective supports RCC Key and/or Objective: First Key: Build FTE 1.1 Expand the scope, quality, and availability of programs and services 1.2 Improve services to the diverse local communities 1.6 Expand training opportunities with business and industry Third Key: Build Revenue 3.1 Pursue alternative funding sources
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
06-07 Rather than expand one course, the SBDC developed two supervision tracks, with four different courses offered each term in each track: 1. Rogue Management Institute for upper level executives 2. Supervisors’ Academy for new, front line, and middle management It took several terms for companies to realize the difference between the two offerings; however, attendance has increased and companies are dividing their enrollment between the two tracks. 07-08 A meeting was held with SBDC staff and supervision instructors to discuss the decrease in attendance for Rogue Management Institute for upper level executives. Supervisors’ Academy was doing only okay and input was solicited as to course improvement. After considerable discussion, it was agreed that upper level management prefers to go out of town for training. It was decided that Supervisors’ Academy be given the name Rogue Management Institute, but retain their 6-hour format and pricing structure. It was also decided to develop a survey to be sent to selected employers, utilizing Survey Monkey as the collection device. Employers would also be invited to participate in focus groups in Josephine and Jackson County to gather input. The supervision courses would then be redesigned based on survey and focus group input. As of April 25, 2008, the following has been accomplished:  The survey has been developed, posted to Survey Monkey, and mailed to 530 Rogue Valley employers  The survey includes a question about participation in the focus group  The survey was mailed to approximately 140 Rogue Valley employers, based on e-mail address obtained by the SBDC  A public service announcement regarding the survey has been released  The survey will be taken to the Grants Pass/Josephine County Chamber of Commerce Greeters meetings  As an incentive, a $25 discount coupon toward any RCC SBDC has been offered to anyone completing the survey and providing contact information Twenty-two board training categories have been developed, which can be expanded upon according to input. An ad was placed in the Daily Courier and Medford Mail Tribune soliciting instructors for all SBDC courses. From the response new instructors were hired and new courses added. Among the newest offerings, offered spring term 2008, are Continuous Process Improvement and Strategic Management. A new offering summer term is entitled Organizing Your Business and Your People.

The Foundation generated and awarded $41,760 in special project grants to the college. The Foundation also generated funds through the Jack & Lillian Morris Scholarship for current high school students to attend RCC in Electronics, Construction, and Manufacturing, with more to come. This has resulted in significant enrollment growth.

Art Objective 4
Continue to seek an additional full-time instructor position to provide better service delivery and increase student learning. (Also applicable to Key 1, 3.1, and 4.1).
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
the funding of this position has not been discussed due to our recent budget crisis. It would still be a good idea and allow for further student services, development of a degree for students, and for community development especially in the medford area -- as our community is vitally important to our dept.

Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
the process is not clearly spelled out but what has been learned of it is that it is fairly cumbersome process. the art dept clearly needs a two year degree to give the student a sense of completion even though the AAOT is probably the better choice. A degree for our students not intending to transfer would be excellent. The graphics program should be shifted to either a shared program with computer science or an art degree that uses computer technology. Graphics programs are typically housed within art dept. Kim Sherrell does an excellent job and should be moved to the art dept along with the graphic course work. this would allow us to further develop the program and serve our students. Several pathways projects could be developed. A new course, Scenic Painting and Set Design, has been added, which works in collaboration with Humanities Theatre faculty. Part of the classwork involved creating a set for the RVC's production of "The Merchant of Venice," part of the classwork for John Cole and Ron Danko's acting and production classes. The work was very successful, and we are working to increase enrollment numbers. The Art Faculty wholeheartedly supports the development of an Associates of Fine Arts degree to better serve students focused on and dedicated to a career in the arts. Research and discussion is underway and ongoing.

Facilities Objective 1
To review and possibly redesign department operations to meet the needs of our customers in light of reduced staffing levels.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Met
The Facilities Department has met this objective through the review and redesign of the department operational structure. Reduced staffing mandated a change from campus based full services to a “Taskforce” concept. Each of the three campuses is provided one maintenance worker to address the daily incidentals and small requests. Six maintenance workers were each reassigned to a two person Taskforce team. These teams are sent to any location within the district, to accomplish specific tasks, which are generated by use of the work order system, and cannot be reasonably handled by the local campus personnel. We are able to maintain the flexibility to provide coverage at any location by temporarily assigning a taskforce to that site for the duration of the event. One position was converted into a Facilities Systems Technician, able to provide technical support to the growing needs of the department and its responsibility to maintain the District’s security and access control systems. The management structure was changed to provide a Director of Facilities position for each county, thus allowing for a greater focus on the specific needs of each.

Accomplishment Extent: Objective Not Met
This was not the year for part-time training. A training session was scheduled for Fall 2008 quarter, but only a couple of part-time faculty signed up, so it was cancelled. Knowing that ATC was working on part-time issues (evaluation, orientation, and mentoring), other priorities within the department put this objective on the back burner.

Business Technology Objective 4
Using 2005/06 as the baseline, reduce the number of sections offered F-W-S by 10 percent during the 2006/07 academic year in order to reduce expenditures while still achieving scheduling efficiencies and quality of instruction.

We will work with the Tutoring Center to make this as smooth a transition as possible—ensuring that the focus of our Writing Center is maintained as we blend our approach with the mission of the Tutoring Center.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
The Writing Center did move into Wiseman as planned, but staff turnover has limited our ability to maintain the original focus of our Writing Center in its new place. In effect, the Writing Center has been absorbed into the larger Tutoring Center.

The Nursing Assistant instructors use low fidelity task trainers appropriately to their skills lab needs.

College Services Objective 1
College Services will more fully integrate and communicate budget development with College-wide goals and objectives.
Accomplishment Extent: Objective Partially Met
