Recommendation
3.1
Now
that the College has achieved a new level of financial and
enrollment stability, the College should shift its planning
and decision-making priorities to ensure that student educational
needs and outcomes are the central focus, and that research
and information about student characteristics, trends, and
outcomes are more thoroughly integrated into the variety
of planning processes. (Standards 3A.1, 3B.2, 3C.l)
Recommendation
4.1
Because
the College has now strengthened its commitment to providing
education extending beyond transfer courses, the College
should develop and evaluate strategies to ensure that information
about educational programs is communicated, used, and integrated
into existing and planned research and the evaluation process.
The development and use of this integrated information, which
should include credit and noncredit basic skills and ESL
programs, will further enhance the College's efforts to strengthen
its commitment to providing education beyond transfer courses
and programs. (Standards 4A.1, 4A.5, 4B.l, 4B.5, and 4D.5)
Recommendation
6.1
The
College should develop a plan encompassing all areas of instruction,
as well as the library and labs, to enable students to access,
evaluate, and use information effectively. (Standards, 6.4,
6.7)
Recommendation
8.1
It
is recommended that the College develop a long-term plan
for use of its agricultural lands that supports fiscal viability
through strategies such as community partnerships while ensuring
that the primary functions of this unique resource remain
focused on goals directly linked to the Educational Master
Plan. (Standards 9.5, 3B.3)
