Equity Report:
As members had already seen the presentation, Tomaneng provided a brief overview of the Student Equity Report explaining the purpose, goals and budget. Based on feedback Tomaneng made a change to the Total Budget Allocation (p. 66). The report was approved and recommended by IPBT for College Council approval.
Continuing with the document Tomaneng displayed a template titled “Student Equity IPBT Request for Funding 2014-2015”, which includes funding allocations for staff positions, academic services/instructional programs and professional development. Discussion followed regarding the need for increasing staff, administrators and faculty for instructional programs. The committee approved 9 requested positions.
