Agenda Items and Actions Taken
- Strategic Planning – Coy provided an update of the Strategic Plan on behalf of Dr. Hinshaw. Dr. Hinshaw plans to present the completed Strategic Plan to the Board of Trustees for their review and approval on Wednesday, September 19, 2007. Once approved the Plan will be made available to all CVCC staff.
- Diversity Plan – Charles informed the Council a 2007-2008 Diversity Plan is needed. All community colleges are mandated to have a diversity plan as part of their annual Institutional Effectiveness Plan. No one at the meeting was clear as to who had been assigned the task to develop a new Diversity Plan.
- IE Statement for P&P – Several changes to the revised document were offered and accepted. Charles will make the changes and forward the updated document to Coy to be placed on a future Board of Trustee agenda for their review and approval.
- Mission and Vision Statement – Coy opened the discussion concerning the review and revision of the mission statement and the vision statement. He shared some suggested changes presented by Dr. Hinshaw. The Council took the president’s suggestions and modified them somewhat. The Council’s proposed mission and vision statements are:
|

- Development of Standards of Excellence – Coy and Charles provided an overview of the importance of the task of developing the new Standards of Excellence. They further voiced that the task of trying to begin the preparation process would be difficult since key members were not in attendance. The consensus of the Council was that sufficient time should be devoted to an intensive examination of which particular standards should be included. Perhaps a special full or half day should be set aside to develop these Standards of Excellence.
- Reminder of Next Meeting – The next SPC meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, October 23, 2007, at 3:00 p.m. The meeting was adjourned.
