SLO and IPR committees show progress and happiness

There was a much friendlier and happier atmosphere at the general faculty meeting this morning as opposed to the last meeting.

Bryan Reece, Mark Fronke, faculty members, and even Bill Farmer seemed to be much more relaxed.

At the last meeting, there were very heated disputes and stressed faculty members demanding answers from president Bill Farmer.

This time around, detailed student improvement strategic plans were provided and improvements and updates on SLO’s were shared.

A lot was shared, leaving room for only a few questions, and a joke or two here and there.

It was rather detailed and enjoyable meeting except for the awkward moment where the Chair of the Instructional Program Review Committee called SLO Coordinator Frank Mixson two-faced.

Although it was meant to be taken as a joke, there seemed to be some offense taken.

Overall it seems that Student Learning Outcome Committee and the Instructional Program Review committee are making progress and working on further improvements to integrate committees and all entities on campus to collaborate in improving student success.
