The college has a new emergency telephone number, 222. Please use this rather than the old 711 telephone number if you have an emergency while on campus.

Spring staffing has been completed.

The Summer schedule has been submitted in draft form. Full-timers will be asked to make their selections in late January. Adjuncts will be asked to submit their preferences February 2-12 via the e-staffing system. Classes will be offered to adjuncts Feb. 13-20, they will be asked to accept or decline the classes offered Feb. 21-24.

The college will create Collegial Teaching Teams in the weeks to come in order to "further facilitate adjunct faculty member participation in the academic life of ACC" (AR 4.06.012). Teams of adjuncts and full-time faculty will be created by the Task Force Chair and the Dean. We would like to make this truly beneficial to all members of the team.

Faculty Evaluation Committee: Lisa Perez discussed the committee's wish to extend the evaluation time period to include Fall 2001. This was approved by the Task Force. All faculty portfolios are due December 3 (from both full-time and part-time faculty).

Professional Development Committee: Karry Evans and Susana Aleman continue to organize a judicial symposium. If you would like to assist in this, or if you have any ideas for professional development activities please contact Committee Chair, Karry Evans, at RGC.

Student Assessment: The Committee has received several packets of assessment questions thus far. Thank you to those faculty who have participated. If your section of Govt 2305 or 2306 was selected for inclusion, please administer the questions and send them to Marilyn Mote-Yale at NRG. If you have any questions regarding this, contact Marilyn (223-4054). All faculty members are invited to serve on the Grading Team in the Spring.
