Dear Faculty Colleagues,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope your summer classes are going well.  The emerging issues the Full-Time Faculty Senate is monitoring over the summer include the Board of Trustees budget process, the developing initiative to open more face-to-face opportunities on more campuses come fall as the COVID-19 pandemic trends towards better days ahead, and following through on the video conferencing platforms the college will continue to support going forward. You\u2019ll find new information about the video conferencing issue in Newsworthy below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also under Newsworthy below, see the call for Full-Time Faculty volunteers for our Shared Governance and Senate Standing Committees.  It is our presence on these decision-making committees that give us the strongest voice at the college level.  If you\u2019ve been seeking opportunities to have your voice be heard, here is your opportunity.  See below for details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay cool!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
