Meeting & Agendas

Discussion: • Austin Wood, Investigator, for Charlene Buckley – Equal Opportunity Compliance • Dr. Jonathan Tyner – Dean of Student Affairs at Cypress Creek Campus • Roxanne Royalty, North Region Executive Dean, for Patty – Student Conduct Coordinator

Discussion: Approval of meeting minutes for September meeting since the meeting last month (October) was cancelled. Motion to approve: 1) Kristine Elderkin 2) Kathy Statos

Discussion: Comments have been added to the draft document in September. Please take a moment to look at the Faculty Academic Integrity document since we are revising that process. We would like for the review to end by December 1st so the subcommittee can review it in December or January and have it ready to present at the February meeting. Looking for volunteers to help the subcommittee. Decisions/Actions: Grant Potts and Devon Miller volunteered to help with the subcommittee along with Kay Trent to provide the student perspective. Emily Olson will send invitations to those interested.

Discussion: What can we do to help is needed to help with this report? 1) Kristine Elderkin: Has someone been named of the leader of this subcommittee? a. Would Patty have a link to the documents that were worked on previously? 2) Kay Trent: She will work on getting the officers first and then start getting senators on board. They are doing grade reviews and are in spaces that demand them to have this training. a. Kristine: Training will need to be in person because the system only allows the austincc.edu domain to access the training. 3) Jim Boullosa: Should this be expanded to frontline staffs or kept as student driven. Decisions/Actions: Kristine Elderkin will contribute to ensure the Student Advocates receive training as Campus Security Authorities so that we are in compliance with The Clery Act. 1) Troy Jefferson will take the lead for this subcommittee. a. Jim will find out from Patty about the documents. 2) Kay Trent: Will be working with Troy to get groups trained and do a follow up email with Kristine. a. Training will be in person. 3) KE: We should look into what was developed in the past and decide from there. AW: We need to be careful not to create the same thing that a student ombuds would be because then we will get into liability with the roles that are sanctioned specifically for an ombuds person.

Discussion: 1) Austin Wood: Conduct Conference was cancelled this Fall; does anyone know if it will be back in the spring or summer? 2) Grant Potts: Are we getting any data on usage by AOS of the number of academic integrity appeals and disputes or grade disputes so we know how well used those processes are looking at it historically? Is it housed anywhere? Regular review of that data should be presented to the committee. Will be moving on in January to become interim dean. Decisions/Actions: 1) Roxanne Royalty: There is interest in having a conference but Patty Zuniga would have more information. She will ask Patty to provide more information to the committee and give a tentative timeline. 2) Jim Boullosa: Does not have the historical data. Now that we have Maxient is in place they can be archived. Patty may have the data on that and we can ask her to review that data and present it to the committee. GP: Will contact Nancy for a replacement on the committee.

Thank everyone for their participation and time.
