        • Questions- Where do the funds come from for the dean position? Why did it not come in front of senate? The “technical” was going to be removed, but the discussion for removal of that term here at De Anza has not occurred, but will. According to Mayra what is occurring now is foundational work in preparation for the new dean.

      • 4:14 - Karen presents folding book light as an option to harness interest in faculty in assisting with feedback on EAT ideas.
        • Robert Alexander’s concern regarding his class that was canceled at 19
        • Cheryl reps say that they have been speaking and that they don’t feel heard, that some faculty don’t feel that enrollment is our job. Being myopic with cuts- we need to look at how students are impacted if prerequisite classes such as Math 212 are cut--they are less likely to return to enroll again.
        • Chris commented “we need to stop treating this as if we are selling widgets.” Recommends matriculation, students are having fragmented experiences from attending multiple colleges
        • Are we having these conversations at the department/division level?
        • Karen stated that the seat fill needs to be at 37 for the college to break even.

        • Tom- can we bring in an outside enrollment consultant
