Kindred Murillo called the meeting to order.
 
Note: Items may not have been discussed in the same order as they appeared on the Agenda.
 
 
     I.     APPROVE MINUTES – November 9, 2007
 
            Minutes of the regular meeting held on November 9, 2007 were approved.
 
            MOTION     ON MOTION OF Jeff Rudisill, and seconded by Jackie Jacobs, the Committee voted by a unanimous vote of all members present to approve the Minutes of the regular meeting held on November 9, 2007. 
 
    II.     TECH SURVEY SUMMARIES OF 2006
 
            Dale Pittman reviewed Survey Issue #20. Online services will change considerably. Phone registration will be eliminated when the college moves to the new student information system in 16-18 months. The satisfaction rate with Escape on the survey became outdated when the new version of Escape replaced the old one. Because there are so many computer systems used by only one particular office or department, MIS is looking for systems that could be used more widely across campus. A suggestion was made that the campus could have kiosks where students could register for classes, do online orientations, etc.  Student kiosks on campus will be added as an action item at the January Meeting, and Scott Thayer will be invited to attend.
 
            In reviewing Survey Issue #20, Bob Miller noted there has been a significant amount of growth related to online and web-enhanced classes. Since the survey, changes include an upgrade of the course managing system to WebCT/Blackboard 6.0 and hiring a new person in the Academic Support Office (ASO). The ASO will host the WebCT system off-campus in an ASP hosting environment and has engaged in a great deal with faculty training and development. The lower

            satisfaction rate on Web CMS may have to do with the application being somewhat cumbersome for some as well as the fact that now faculty members have to type the information in to Web CMS themselves instead of the department secretary or clerk who did it in the past. The Web Board and Online Forums are used by very few people.
 
            Bob Cody’s review of Survey Issue #20 will be moved to the January Meeting. The Santa Rosa System Timetable will be added as an Agenda Item at the January Meeting.
 
 
   III.     CTC VISION & MISSION STATEMENTS
 
            The CTC Mission Statement was reviewed and adopted in concordance by CTC. The concept paper was edited by the committee. 
 
            The adoption of the concept paper will be added as an action item at the January Meeting.
 
 
   IV.     RFP – THIRD PARTY ASSESSMENT OF CAMPUS TECHNOLOGY
 
            Kindred Murillo reported that the RFP final draft will be posted on the CTC wiki page and e-mailed to everyone for input. An evaluation subcommittee will make vendor recommendations to CTC which, in turn, will forward their recommendation(s) to Executive Committee.
 
                V.     UPDATE ON COORDINATING COUNCIL & RESOURCE ALLOCATION COMMITTEE
            Dale Pittman reported the Coordinating Council subcommittees are still reviewing Acceptable Use of Electronic Resources Policy proposal. Leslie Tirapelle reported the proposal is also being reviewed by the Faculty Technology Committee. A summary of both current and proposed policy were written, and a survey will be done to see which version faculty prefers. The FTC will make a recommendation to the Academic Senate which in turn will forward their recommendation Executive committee. Links to the policies and policy summaries will be e-mailed to CTC for review and discussion.
 
            Kindred Murillo reported the Resource Allocation Committee is working on its role and how to link the budgeting to the planning process. The Committee is in the process of drafting a mission statement.
 
            An update on the Coordinating Council will be added as an Agenda Item at the January Meeting.
