MINUTES OF THE FACULTY EVALUATION AND COMPENSATION

AD HOC COMMITTEE

MEETING DATE:  DECEMBER 4, 2002

ORDER OF BUSINESS:

The committee discussed the decision to break into two sub-committees, one for Evaluation and the other for Compensation.  The committee chairs hope that this will speed the process and allow the committee to finish its work on a timely basis. 

The committee was appraised that President Angel had been contacted and addressed the issue of the non-classified staff vis-a –vis evaluation and compensation matters.  The following was stated:

·        The non-classified staff is under the same guidelines as the classified. This led to the question: Why not join both committees? A rather lengthy discussion followed this question.

The committee then discussed what percentage number to use for merit pay. A motion was made to use the number 51%. The committee then voted to table this until a later date. 

It was felt by the committee that the first order of business would be to resolve the evaluation issue. 

The committee was then made aware of Arreola’s pending visit on January 9^th & 10^th, 2003. 

The chair then charged the two subcommittees to:

·        Create job descriptions

·        Members to attend Arreola’s workshop

·        The committees are to shepherd, not develop policy (which is done by the faculty)

·        Welcome faculty comments

·        Reevaluate the student evaluation system

The committee will meet as a whole in its next meeting.

NEXT MEETING:  JANUARY 17, 2003 (Friday) @ 1:00 PM

John Singley, Committee Secretary
