Initiative One

• Increase Campus Recreation Space

6
Initiative One (cont)

• Rationale
• The student population has increased
  approximately 400 and four intercollegiate
  sports have been added since the Lifetime Sports
  Complex was built in 1981
• Method
• Work with committee to present a plan to the Long
  Range Planning Committee to upgrade and build new
  facilities to accommodate the needs of the
  general student population, physical
  education/recreation and athletics.

Initiative One (cont)

• Cost
• Approximately 20 million funded from PECO funds

8
Initiative Two

• Establish a permanent half time position to
  handle Student Conduct

9
Initiative Two (cont)

• Rationale
• The area of discipline has become increasingly
  complex due to the numerous court cases and the
  addition of new laws governing the process.
  Therefore, the judicial process on campus has
  become much more time consuming over the last
  several years. The philosophy of the College is
  to use the disciplinary process to be a positive
  factor in student development. Therefore, the
  staff handling the proceedings must have the
  Learning College Philosophy and the ability to
  implement the philosophy

10
Initiative Two (cont)

• Method
• Chuck Lee is now OPS in his eighth year at 15
  hours per week. In establishing this position,
  there would be an increase of 5 hours per week in
  assistance to handle the discipline cases
• Cost
• Current cost is approximately 15,000. By
  establishing the permanent position, the
  increased cost would require about 10,000 in
  additional money to the Campus Life budget
• Currently this position is being funded by the
  Student Government but would recommend funding
  through the College budget

11
Initiative Three

• Leadership Development Program

12
Initiative Three (cont)

• Rationale
• Leadership development is a critical component of
  the Learning College. Leadership development
  makes a positive, immediate impact on the lives
  of the students involved in the program. There
  has been much attention recently nation wide in
  the area of Leadership Development and TCC is
  normally on the cutting edge of trends and should
  continue to lead.

13
Initiative Three (cont)

• Method
• The framework has been established this year for
  a total program in Leadership Development for
  both individuals and student organizations. With
  the renewal of the Preparing Future Leaders
  Scholarship and additional resources through the
  newly introduced framework, the number of
  students taking advantage of these opportunities
  should double

14
Initiative Three (cont)

• Cost
• 10,000 from Campus Life budget and a commitment
  to renew the scholarship offerings
