Revised Timeline (1.29.2014): June 2015
Note: Report was completed (February, 2015), and even though it focuses on Culture, Climate, and Experience of Part-Time Faculty at PCC, the EAC was requested to postpone a vote of approval until PCCFFAP negotiations were completed, so that managers could be included in the vote. The report remained on the "Action Agenda" and was postponed each month until contract negotiations were completed.
Contract negotiations were completed in November. There was not a quorum in the November 25, 2015 meeting. Minor adjustments were made to the recommendations.
The EAC formally approved the recommendations to be presented to the college president for final approval on December 9, 2015
Recommendations were brought to the interim college president on January 11, 2015. Dr. Chris Chairsell, Vice-President of Academic and Student Affairs, approved the report on that date.
Currently awaiting final approval of the interim college President.
