Presidents’ Addresses
Administration, Senate, Unions / 43 / 12 / 0 / 0 / Sampling of Comments (paraphrased except where indicated by quotes):
  • Lines too long for food and coffee; 2 lines on either side of tables works better
  • Didn’t know that parking passes would be available and for only a short time in the morning
  • Keynote: EXCELLENT! Dynamic speaker; Great to listen to MPC’s own faculty and expertise.
  • Long Term Care: Too much sales pitch, not enough info; don’t place in room where food is not allowed.
  • Tech session: on mysite and autobahn, a very needed topic but not delivered effectively; not enough hands-on, more a show and tell.
  • Digital Photography: very useful for classroom enhancement.
  • Online teaching session: well received
  • CYA Syllabus: “not what I expected.”
  • Connect and Communicate: a great idea; loved Judee Timm’s websiteTeaching in Action Video series; session could use more structure; very discipline-specific
  • Accreditation Self-Study: nicely presented
  • SLO’s: “Like medicine, just have to swallow!”

The Academic Senate is interested in your opinion about the optimal time to held flex events. Please share your views.
I would prefer for institutional flex activities to be scheduled at the following time of the semester:
□ Wed/Thurs of the week before the semester begins (as it is now). 39
□earlier in the week (Mon/Tues) before the semester begins. 8
□ during a designated week in the middle of the semester: 5 (no suggestions as to which week
□ the day(s) after the last final exam. Absolutely not! (1)
□ other (please explain): As is, plus a mid-semester option.
