ASCCC 101 TAKE 2 AND CALL ME IN THE MORNING Leadership Institute Hayes Mansion, San Jose, CA June 15, 2007
An Overview for Medical Students • Your Triage Team: • Lesley Kawaguchi • Phillip Maynard
Merck Manual: The Session Binder • Anatomy of the Binder: • The Skeleton: Leadership Institute • The Muscle: Matters of Governance • The Soul: Effective Local Senates • The Heart: The ASCCC • The Head: The System Office
Your Local Senate Role • “rely primarily” and “mutually agree” • Board policies and administrative regulations
Academic Senate for California Community Colleges -- Section 1
The ASCCC • The ASCCC has two major roles: • Represent Faculty • Inform Faculty and any others • The ASCCC represents Faculty at all of the SO councils and committees, the BOG meetings, and many other legislative efforts. • Legislative advocacy is a critical role YOU can help with.
The ASCCC • Is the Governance body representing ALL California Community College (CCC -- remember this) Faculty • Over 120 Member Senates • 14 elected Executive Committee members • Task Forces and Advisory Groups • Standing and Ad Hoc Committees • And would love to get you to step up and volunteer . . . .
The ASCCC: We need volunteers • The ASCCC’s Standing and Ad Hoc Committees: • Each Committee has roughly 6 members, including a Chair. • The Chair is usually an ASCCC Exec Member. • Committees usually meet monthly, with some in-person meetings and the rest via CCCConfer. • The ASCCC Executive Committee meets in person monthly (but has lots of cross babble, e-mails, and phone conversations between meetings).
The ASCCC • We need some things from you (blood donations always welcome): • Update your Senate Directory, Page 47. • Disseminate and/or fill out various surveys that the ASCCC sends out. • Fill out the nomination to serve form on Page 1.
The ASCCC • The ASCCC informs Faculty and others via: • Senate Rostrum (articles accepted from anyone with no guarantees that they will be published) • President Updates • Legislative Alerts • The ASCCC Website (http://www.asccc.org) • Plenary Sessions • Senate Papers • Technical Assistance
The ASCCC • The Disease: Acronym Abuse -- Page 131. • Think CCC (California Community Colleges) • Memorize this: You’ll be tested on early morning rounds tomorrow. • Feel free to stop any medical personnel anytime for acronym clarification • Remember, we’re here to save lives!
The ASCCC: Plenary Sessions • The semi-annual Plenary Sessions are the means by which the body interacts with the ASCCC. • There are information sessions: Breakouts • Session breakouts are generally crafted by the ASCCC committees, but any good ideas will be considered. • Formal interaction: Resolutions • Informal interaction: Networking and Socializing • Keynote engagements: General Sessions
The ASCCC: ResolutionsPage 39 • Resolutions • Can come from any faculty member. • Are voted upon by delegates at Plenary Sessions. • Are acted upon by the ASCCC Executive Committee and Standing Committees.
The ASCCC: Your Role as a Delegate • Learn what you can about every resolution • Get input from your local Senate • Vote that input at Plenary Session • Carry the results and other info back to your local Senate • Share Rostrums and Updates locally • Attend breakouts, become informed, share information locally
The ASCCC: Your role as a Delegate • Attend the new delegate breakout at Plenary Session • If you are not a delegate, volunteer to be an election teller at least once. • Attend the Area Meetings -- generally 2-3 weeks prior to Plenary • Colleges by Area are on Page 37 • Socialize with others and network, network, network
The ASCCC: Why is this important? • Generally, all actions, research, positions, and activities are directed by the body through resolutions. • The resolutions are then carried out by the ASCCC Committees, the Officers, and the Executive Director.
ASCCC Institutes • The ASCCC holds various Institutes based on resolutions: • Faculty Leadership Institute • Curriculum Institute • Vocational Faculty Leadership Institute • Teaching Institute • Accreditation Institute • SLO and Assessment Institute • Fall and Spring Plenary Sessions
The System Office (SO) • Similar model to local Board of Trustees: • Board of Governors (BOG) oversees Chancellor, Vice-Chancellors, and SO staff activities. • Consultation Council is an executive, all constituent body that advises the Chancellor.
The System Office • Consultation exists due to Ed Code. • Consultation is in policy in Standing Orders of the BOG. • Implementation is laid out in the Executive Orders of the Chancellor • Consultation Council membership includes: Students, Faculty, CEOs, CIOs, CBOs, CSSOs, CHROs, org reps from 8 CCC organizations and the Chancellor.
The System Office • Generally, nothing decided at Consultation Council is binding. • But full consensus items (eg., Math/ English requirement) tend to be well received by the BOG. • Academic and professional matters will rely primarily on the ASCCC input.
The System Office • The System Office has several divisions: • Executive • Finance and Facilities Planning • Educational Services • Governmental Relations and External Affairs • Legal Affairs • Student Services • Technology, Research & Information Services
The System Office • The Chancellor has 13 plus advisory committees: • The ASCCC has faculty reps on most of these.
Technical Assistance • Generally, the first level is to talk with the Area Rep, then the President if the Area Rep can’t solve your issue. • The next level is Technical Assistance, which requires all parties to agree and solicit it.
Technical Assistance • The ASCCC and CCLC Presidents/ Designees will provide the assistance. • Assistance comes in 4 forms: • 1. Informational presentation • 2. Advisory assistance • 3. Issue resolution • 4. Special workshops and presentations
