Barry has asked Pam Zimmerman to come up and do some Info Maker training for the admissions office. Mike and Dottie asked if she could provide the business office and the department chairs with some training as well Barry will contact her again to see if that is possible.

The first Percent for the Arts meeting was Friday. Bobbie-Jo Caron, Kerri Watson-Blaisdell and Barry are on the committee. They presented information about the College and areas around campus that will house the art work. They discussed ideas for the artist to use when creating the art work.

President Tim Crowley

Tim has spoken to the department chairs about the budget. They have come up with some good ideas for a plan. The system office will be expecting the new budget plan in about a week.

Tim met with Pam Buck and they discussed possibly ending the contract for the Alternative Energy Center building and relocating the equipment and boilers to help save money. Tim will contact the city and see what can be done.

Tim presented the cabinet members with a list of programs and number of students enrolled in each. He would like the cabinet members to go over the list as well as the department chairs to determine the relative cost of each program and what programs could possibly be eliminated.

An employee meeting will be held Wednesday in the Peter Hunt room.

Tim will be attending the President’s Council Tuesday at the KV Alfond.

Claudia Steven from United Way is looking for office space. Tim is going to show her some space in Andrew’s Hall. This could be a way to bring in a little extra revenue.
