1. 2000/2001 BUDGET UPDATE: Due to Ron Root's illness, Robert Agrella gave a brief budget update. He recounted the state budget specifics and their impacts on SRJC. He reminded SRJC of the need to utilize P4E funds to help maintain current College operations. The budget goes to the Board at the September 12th meeting for adoption. It is clear the challenge to SRJC is to retain students, increase enrollment through growth and to make the most of the somewhat restrictive categorical nature of the State funding package.
2. PARTNERSHIP FOR EXCELLENCE FOCUS 2000/2001: Dr. Agrella provided an overview of P4E focus for 2000/01. Once again the plan is to utilize existing component processes as related to P4E funding. Again, the need exists to utilize P4E to assist the College in providing for its continuous operations. The emphasis continues to be on access, success, accountability and retention. SRJC has now received a total of $5.6 million in P4E funds during the past three (3) years. A major portion of those funds are being spent on on-going activities. A continually looming issue is the matter that no COLA is provided for Partnership For Excellence funds. Hence, over time, there occurs a shortfall.

3. PARTNERSHIP FOR EXCELLENCE GOALS/PERFORMANCE UPDATE: Dr. Baba Adam provided an update as to SRJC's progress towards its performance goals. Progress toward the 2005-2006 Partnership For Excellence goals was achieved by SRJC in almost all the areas except in one goal and one sub-goal for 1998-99. SRJC did not meet the projected goals in the areas of work force development -- successful completion of vocational education courses, goal 4 and the area of transfer prepared -- sub-goal 1b. Overall, however, satisfactory progress has been made on the remaining goals. IPC as well as the instructional program will be evaluating the factors impacting on goal 4 and sub-goal 1b. Dr. Adam will provide this report to the Classified Senate as well as the Department Chairs Council.
4. KNOWLEDGEWORKS: LuAnn Campbell provided an overview as to Knowledgeworks II, the workforce development strategic plan. Copies of the draft document have been sent out to the college community (including the Academic and Classified Senates and the Department Chairs Council). Luann is requesting suggestions and comments be back to her by no later than September 8th. IPC will return to a discussion on how the Knowledgeworks II planning impacts and is impacted by the component administrator-driven institutional planning process. All IPC members are encouraged to read this document and get their individual comments back to LuAnn by the 8th and be prepared to discuss its processing at the September 11th meeting.
5. EDUCATIONAL MASTER PLAN: Ed Buckley introduced the topic of educational master planning. The Educational Master Plan is the primary plan for implementing the College's mission and goals. It drives the planning for facilities, capital outlay and other resource allocation planning including faculty and classified staffing. The Educational Master Plan will help determine the long-range Facilities Plan and will feed into the institutional-level planning coordinated by IPC. The Educational Programs and Policy Committee (EPPC) will lead the vanguard in the master planning efforts. Additionally, the master planning process will assist in the development of the College's accreditation reports. The Educational Master Plan outline is being shared with key planning committees and the Academic and Classified Senates and the Department Chairs Council and the college community.

6. RESEARCH AGENDA STATUS: Baba Adam reviewed the Institutional Research agenda for 2000/01. The ambitious agenda includes a significant amount of research support for Academic Affairs and Student Services.
Much of Institutional Research's efforts will be designed to assist the educational master planning process and in the development of accreditation self-study information. Again, Dr. Adam will share the agenda with Academic and Classified Senates and the Department Chairs Council.
