   meeting were unanimously approved.
   

2. Robin Simmons reported on Adjunct Orientation Surveys and Adjunct Recruitment. While relatively few adjuncts completed and submitted the Fall 05 survey, Robin felt that the social aspect of the orientation… an opportunity to meet, greet and share ideas was invaluable. Discussion regarding future orientations and their focus followed. It was suggested that orientations be held the second week of school on each campus with all faculty required to attend at least one (more if they like), that each orientation include a specific topic/theme of interest, that letters be sent to all adjuncts seeking their input and their involvement prior to finalization of plans.

   Robin also reported on Adjunct recruitment stating that she thinks we should recruit more actively by increasing advertisement and keeping a larger active pool. Robin, Angela and Judy are to put together a strategy that includes reaching graduates and other resources.

1. Nadine discussed research on “orientation” and “registration” fees …stating that it is her opinion that all students at each campus should be charged equally. More work is to be done by the end of January.
   Nadine also spoke of November 05 FYE Evaluation Meeting and reviewed a report prepared for and disseminated to the Leadership Team.
