Public Commentary

Action Items

  1. Approval of November minutes    ACTION       
  • Approved by unanimous consent

Reports:

Old Business:

  1. Update: Early Alert System     DISCUSSION
  • The system is ready to use, but with the vacancy in the VPSS position, there is no support to close the loop that using the system would create. Hopefully this will be remedied once the VPSS position is filled.
  • The committee, with the support of Admissions and Records, would like to pilot the system, which is called Faculty Feedback.
  • The chair of ADC will send out an email to all department chairs and request the names of those who would like to participate.
  • These names will be forwarded to the director of Admissions and Records.
  • The idea of giving others who are not faculty or advising members the ability to access Faculty Feedback is also being investigated.
  1. Update: Banner Pop-Up Alerts     DISCUSSION
  • ADC would like to investigate the use of a pop-up disclaimer explaining/defining what a late-start class encompasses.
  • This could possibly be included in the action items that must be signed by students before continuing registration for each semester.
  • The chair of ADC will reach out the Academic Senate President to begin this process.
