Winter-Spring in Full Swing – Updates for January
To do ASAP:
- Get involved in shared governance: go to Calendar Committee meeting on Jan. 31 (or email the Chair) to address any concerns you have as they are faced with ‘moving forward’ on the next calendar (more information in the FA meeting notes, see below)
- Report to the FA if you’ve seen a difference in Normal Closing Numbers (NCNs) in your classes this semester.
- RSVP for the faculty retreat on Feb. 1 in San Gabriel; dinner served. (more information in the FA meeting notes, see below)
Some highlights from last week’s FA meeting:
- independent all- faculty retreat is scheduled Feb. 1 in San Gabriel by Dave McCabe and Eloy Zarate
- PCC Board Elections working groups organized by the FA; contact us if you’re interested in participating.
- independent effort for vote of no confidence for PCC President
