Program Request Rationale *TCP STATUS1 Information

TechnologyManager, Help Desk and User Support

Support organizational development specifically to prioritize and assign work orders; ensure timely completion and appropriate escalation; provide appropriate training to technicians and/or end-users; identify patterns with reported problems and address in a proactive manner. Supports Strategic Master Plan Goal 6.3 (evaluating resources) and Education Master Plan Goal 6.3 (utilize faculty and staff expertise). Information Technology completes over 5,000 work orders per year. Currently, the review, assignment and follow-up of orders is haphazard; i.e., some are self-assigned, some assigned by designated supervisor and some assigned by Executive Director. Consistent assignment is needed to ensure that priorities are established and met. Ongoing review, documentation and training are needed to ensure the customers are provide with an accurate and consistent level of service in a timely manner. Leadership Range 7.

2 Maintenance and Operations

Operations Supervisor (Leadership Range V)

The current M&O management team is stretched thin with the addition of the off-site campuses, additional staff, and ever increasing work orders, special events and emergencies. The addition of an Operations Supervisor, which would have oversight of the grounds team and daytime custodians, would allow each of the other supervisors to focus more on supporting their respective teams and serving the college, especially the off-site campuses more effectively. Currently, the Custodial Supervisor is responsible for day and night custodians that work from 8am - 2:30am. This burden doesn't allow for proper oversight or support of day staff. The Manager of M&O oversees grounds and maintenance. This includes supervision of 20 employees that covers all trades, landscape maintenance and safety at all campuses. Due to the time and distance contraints that these two managers have, the Director spends a good deal of time focusing on day to day issues, instead long term planning, compliance issues, personnel management and oversight over the college's critical systems. The addition of an Operations Supervisor would allow current managers the time to be more proactive in their approach to planning, oversight of staff, and service to the college. Regular visits and inspections of all sites could be done by each manager, in their respective areas. In the future, this position will be flexible enough that it could be reassigned to an off-site campus depending on the growth and need for an M&O management presence.

3 Public Safety Public Safety Supervisor - full-time, 12-month position to bring additional onsite supervision in the evening hours

Staffing is a very fluid problem with the continuous expansion of the District. Currently, there is no onsite supervision during the evening hours. The same issues that are seen in the day are dealt with in the evening hours as well and the occurrences have increased. The director has received multiple after hours phone calls from officers requiring direction. This position would overlap with the director for 2-3 hours to add continuous onsite supervision. Although the department does have a Lead Officer position, the position is NOT supervisory and in many way is superfluous since CSEA members cannot supervise other CSEA members.

Program Request Rationale *TCP STATUS 4 Human Resources Human Resources Specialist Replacement of the HR specialist due to promotion replaced

Program Request Rationale *TCP STATUS 5 Athletics Head Coach/Director - Volleyball The Athletics Department currently only has one full time coach, football. Our SLO process

determined the immediate need for a full time coach of a women’s sport as we are out of Title IX compliance with a full time coach for a men’s sport. The data points to a Head Coach/Director of Volleyball as this is a women’s sport without a men’s sport counterpart which would bring us into compliance. Classified Leadership IV

Assistant Dean ASBU It is clear that the workload is more than is reasonably manageable for a single dean. There are the following tasks: instructional faculty, classified, student workers, industry and city partners, regional meetings, Perkins, Strong Workforce (local and regional), PSA, state regulations, curriculum/program modifications, and grants. There has been an increase in directors, which has greatly improved the situation, but with them comes an increased workload in managing.

2 Maintenance and Operations Installation of automatic gate at south end of M&O yard

Recently, more people are found “wandering” in the M&O yard, despite postings indicating that is it for authorized personnel only. This auto-gate would mirror the operation at the north end of the yard and would allow staff efficient access and restrict access to those that should not be in the area. Now with more student activity in the area, due to the stagecraft storage yard and Kiosk storage, it is extremely important to be able to have a definitive line between student and service space. The potential to have students wander into the M&O is a significant concern for injury, damage to property, or theft and is liability to the college.

$35,000

4 Maintenance and Operations Installation of shade structure in M&O yard New shade structure would allow for all large equipment to be stored out of the sun, which would extend the life of the equipment that can be caused by rotted hoses, seats, tires, etc. The structure would also contribute to reducing down time when equipment is out of service for repair for the items mentioned above.

$20,000

5 Maintenance and Operations M&O Conference Room Since the M&O shop was moved to the “Old Art Building”, the former lock shop (located in the M&O Office) has sat vacant. This space could be made into a useful conference/training room to be utilized in meeting with other departments and performing in-house trainings and in-services. Currently, there is a conference table located in the M&O office, but because it is open to the hallway and the breakroom, it does not make an effective room for separate meetings.

$25,000

6 Maintenance and Operations 40ft Storage Container With the activation of the “C” building and all of Administration, there is no longer any surplus storage area on campus. A 40ft storage container would allow M&O to have a stock of replacement and extra chairs to be supplied to classrooms as needed. As it would not be air conditioned, this container would only be used for non-critical supplies such as furniture that may need to be held temporarily. With the new Southeast Annex complex in the immediate future, there will be a surplus of furniture that will be left behind at South Annex that will need to be stored.

8 Agriculture/Plant Sci/Hort Additional Storage Building Building will be identical to the current Horticulture and Turfgrass Shop. Vinyl coated metal with a single garage door and one standard door opening. Concrete slab to be included with interior and exterior lighting. As new large turf equipment has been added to the Horticulture, Turf, and Plant Science programs it has become apparent that additional facilities for equipment storage is required. A metal building similar to our Shop (28’ X 30’) would be adequate. Currently, equipment is stored in an exposed Pole Shed with a tarp being used in order to slow down the aging process. Many must last 15-20 years before new replacement equipment will be purchased. This additional covered storage will maximize equipment and can also be used to store expendable supplies.

$30,000

9 Agriculture/Plant Sci/Hort Removal of 31 Pine Trees in north area of Horticulture Facility

Additional space for Urban Agriculture Farm to Table project. $10,000

10 Agriculture/Plant Sci/Hort Retaining Wall Replacement In the Nursery there is a 50+ year old raised planter and the retaining wall is falling apart. The water seal on the inside of the wall has failed and water is causing the wall to crumble and fall apart. Large chunks of block are falling off onto a sidewalk and portions of the wall are starting to fall over. This retaining wall also serves as a seat wall surrounding a garden area used by both Plant Science and Horticulture students. Further collapse of this wall will present a safety issue and the possible loss of a major teaching area until replacement is initiated.

$20,000

11 Air Con/HVAC/En Sys Tech Staging Facility Currently, equipment and trainers are stored outside and are being destroyed bythe elements. An air conditioned staging warehouse and lab-type building isnecessary for new labs being developed for newly approved courses andprograms. The new lab area will provide for multiple credit and noncredit coursesbeing offered concurrently. The staging warehouse will allow for instructors to beable to train multiple labs in the same allocated lab space. In addition, newlypurchased training equipment will be securely stored, protected from theelements, and out of the lab area while not in use.

$8,000,000

12 Air Con/HVAC/En Sys Tech Outdoor Lab Covering A covered area is necessary to protect outdoor equipment from the elements and provide necessary shade from the direct sun for students during long lab hours. Total requested area is a 10,000 sq. ft. building.

14 Basic Peace Officer Training Portable Office Space/eight (8) offices The COD-PSA staff has doubled in size due to reorganization and the addition of new full-time staff. Due to the recent reorganization and the new hires, the PSA office needed to provide offices to four (4) faculty members originally housed in the ASBU building, including the new full-time AJ faculty member and the new full-time EMT faculty member. This reorganization was implemented to help stimulate student enrollment. This resulted in the loss of office space for the Police Academy Coordinator, the Fire Academy Coordinator, and three Recruit Training Officers. Each need office space to meet with students, store records/files, develop curriculum and schedules, and grade student work. Additional office space for 8 staff members would allow the new full time BPOT Coordinator and the current part-time Fire Coordinator to have offices within the PSA building with the director. The four RTOs and four full time staff (2 AJ/ 1 Fire/ 1 EMT) would then be housed in the portable office space pending completion of the Phase II portion of the COD-PSA strategic building plan. The installation of portable offices would serve the need of both the 50+ adjunct staff and the students.

$70,000

15 Business/Hotel/Restaurant Micro Hospitality Lab A Micro Hospitality Lab would provide a multi-faceted learning space where hospitality students could “practice” and receive feedback on a number of activities representing different hospitality environments. For example, actual micro-teaching capability would enable students to practice a range of soft skill behaviors like conflict resolution styles, giving/receiving criticism, a variety of communication issues, etc. A “point of sale” set-up would help students this widely used technology “before” entering the restaurant field. A “fake bar” set up would provide students with the experience of bar-tending. A small “hotel room” would help students become more acquainted with the rigors of hotel/resort housekeeping. And the list goes on. Paired with the College’s Culinary program, our Hospitality Management students could eventually go into their work experience phase with a well-rounded pre-experience base.

$50,000

16 Business/Management Small Business/Entrepreneurial Development Center

The proposed Small Business/Entrepreneurial Development Center, tentatively suggested to be in Nursing Bldg. room 7, will need limited remodeling such as inside security doors, outlets, etc.

$3,000

17 Business/Management Parking Lot Access The parking availability for faculty and staff in parking lots 22 and 21 is a huge challenge, especially mornings and early afternoons. An analysis of all staff (e.g., maintenance, Bond Office, new administrative offices in LA, and regular faculty staff in the surrounding buildings) indicate a substantial jump in users since the lots were designated, without additional space allocation. Designating an additional row of parking and/or revamping the sticker system so students can’t abuse the system would improve parking.

18 Child Development & Education Indio child care program High priority for our program continues to be creating a child care program at the Indio campus so that observation and practice opportunities will expand enrollment opportunities for ECE courses.

19 Child Development & Education McCarthy Center renovation The original McCarthy Center building remains in need of renovation to maximize the space and learning opportunities for the children of our COD students, faculty and staff. The original building opened in 1991 and is in desperate need of repair and updating. Renovation includes adding needed office space and changes to the classrooms to be ADA compliant. We will also be submitting this request to the Facilities Committee. (Fall, PRU)

20 Child Development & Education ECE classrooms (2) The Early Childhood Education building was scheduled to have two ECE classrooms but the money was taken away from the budget to complete the STEM building. We need the classroom space to meet the needs of the students for day time courses and to protect the safety of faculty and students in a potential crisis from their remote and isolated status in the evenings.

21 Child Development & Education Misting system for outdoor classrooms at McCarthy Center

Temperatures were over 110 for several weeks this summer preventing the children from having outdoor learning time. Establish a “Music Garden” in the new McCarthy CDTC Outdoor Classroom to enhance students’ social and math skills. We received funding from an outside source to purchase some of the needed equipment and materials but will need additional resources to complete the project.

$48,000

22 Child Development & Education Establish the observation capacity within each McCarthy Center preschool and infant/ toddler classroom

(also included among Instructional Equipment requests - school placed it in the Low Tier)

To maximize the potential for student observations of children and teaching practices to lead to greater student understanding of child development and developmentally appropriate practices. Provide 6 cameras for the McCarthy Center classrooms to enable faculty to access live and recorded video for observations of child development and best teaching practices. Provide Listening Centers for each of the stations in the new ECE 101 classroom at the Palm Desert campus to observe live classroom interactions from the McCarthy Center classroom. The cameras, audio equipment and listening stations in the Palm Desert classroom have been completed, training was provided for all ECE faculty and the film of the classrooms can be accessed remotely for ECE adult courses

$30,000

23 Child Development & Education Fountains and sink The McCarthy Center continues to need fountains and a sink in the infant play area outdoors.

28 Culinary Arts Separate lecture rooms Lab space is not sufficient or productive as lecture space with desks. Chairs currently in lab space cause clutter, are dangerous to free movement in the lab, and block fire exits.

29 Digital Design & Production Two tables with six chairs Accommodate the new Mac computer stations and expand enrollment $5,000.00

30 Education Centers - East Valley Speed bumps at the Indio entrances and in the aisles in the parking lot

Currently, there are two blind corners upon entrance to the parking lot and the blind spots have been exacerbated by the additional modular units.

31 Education Centers - East Valley Reconfiguration of Indio Room 204, an already partitioned room, to allow for adequate space for TASC functions

Currently, the Room 204 does not have enough computers stations and space to meet the course size as defined in the CORs and thus the college loses FTES and drops in our effiiencies each time the room is scheduled. The Education Center Department would like to propose reconfiguring the space not only to be a part of the TASC lab, but it also provides space for workshops, tutoring and assessment testing that otherwise interferes with and is scheduled around credit courses. Room 207 could then be remodeled to be a computer lab that is equipped to handle course sizes, could increase efficiency, and it is not a partitioned room.

32 Education Centers - East Valley Relocate Information/Public Safety Desk in Indio Campus lobby

For safety reasons. The current placement is easily accessible by students, puts their back to those entering the building, and exposes all materials to passersby in the breezeway.

33 Education Centers - East Valley Modify existing 1st floor pantry in Indio to provide storage space for custodial supplies

Modify the existing pantry on the first floor to remove cabinets and replace with open shelving units to provide adequate storage for custodial supplies. During the design phase the building was not equipped with custodial supply storage resulting in the use of non-storage spaces to store supplies. This pantry is currently only used by the Custodial team so the change would make the space more conducive to their needs. This is a project current staff are equipped to handle without the use of a bond project.

34 Education Centers - East Valley Lighting for open lot Although construction on the new site is slated to begin in the next year, students are currently parking in the open lot which does not have lighting. Public safety officers are patrolling the lot on foot in the dark. Students walking to their cars do not have any lighting.

Many trees and vegetation in the parking lot are not getting water. M & O are currently seeking solutions for this problem.

39 Education Centers - West Valley Tree removal and replacement - Palm Springs Temporary Campus

Because of the problem with the sprinkler system, some trees will need to be removed and replaced. Again, M & O are seeking solutions.

40 Education Centers - West Valley Resurfacing of handicapped parking - Palm Springs Temporary Campus

When the PSTC Parking Lot was resurfaced, grooves and holes in the pavement were not repaired properly. The pavement is uneven and it is difficult for pedestrians (particularly those with mobility imitations) to navigate at the front entrance.

To provide consistent and even AC air flow so the temperatures will not fluctuateto “very/cold freezing primarily in the SA 12 offices, Reception/Front Desk areaand in the student labs. Since the TRiO staff moved in SA 10-12 almost two yearsago, the air flow from the A.C. units has been very inconsistent, most of thetimes, blowing very cold “gushes” especially in two offices and in the studentlabs. Details: The A. C. cold air flow, the compressors often stops working, andthe heat and cold temperatures in the students’ labs are not consistent.Therefore, we need to make urgent requests to M and O for fans to cool downthe area. In addition, most of the staff and student workers have had “chills andcolds” off and on from the impact of the air conditioning not working properly(almost blowing “freezing” air most of the day).

The library at the Indio campus still has an extremely limited number of print resources. The new library at the Palm Springs campus will be opening without any resources. We need to purchase an entire basic online reference collection to support our students at all branches, and phase out the print reference collection everywhere possible (which is outdated and expensive to maintain). The collection will be comprised of materials such as dictionaries, encyclopedia, handbooks, manuals and other reference tools that will support curriculum. In particular, the Gale Virtual Reference Library (GVRL). The new library at the Palm Springs campus opened without any Library resources. The Learning Resource Center requires a print/online collection to support the major curricular areas at this branch. Examples include cookbooks (culinary), trade publications (hospitality, culinary, etc.), and circulating/electronic medical reference books (health sciences). Where appropriate, the Library will focus on the major curricular areas offered at each branch campus.

29 English Large-scale assessment of composition courses

Currently, the English Department lacks a large-scale assessment of our composition courses. Because College of the Desert offers many sections of our composition courses, and because the field of composition allows for a variety of pedagogical approaches to meeting Student Learning Outcomes, assessments based only on specific course assignments offer incomplete views of whether the English Department is meeting the outcomes required for our students to be successful, college-level-literate learners.

Both maintaining academic standards and assessing SLOs in writing require a large-scale, programmatic assessment led by expert faculty who can build continuity among program faculty in how SLOs are addressed and assessed in courses. Therefore, we propose designing and implementing a standardized writing assessment across all sections of our composition courses that will be holistically scored by English faculty each academic year.

A large-scale course assessment like the one we are proposing must be based on authentic student writing samples, scored by faculty, in order to create a valid measure of SLOs. The National Council of Teachers of English advocates for just such a procedure to be used, stating, “Because assessment offers information about student performance and the factors which affect that performance, [English composition course assessment] is an important way for programs or departments to monitor and develop their practice.” For this test to be valid, it must be based on a common course project that is then scored by teaching faculty.

Student Library Employees budget - Indio

The College opened a new branch library in Indio, fall 2016, staffing with Library Specialists for 52 hours per week. As the library presence on that campus grows, basic reference has been difficult to provide given the limited staffing. SLE’s will handle basic manual tasks associated with learning resources processing and maintenance, freeing staff time to work in service to student and faculty needs. Information literacy instruction provided by librarians will positively affect SLO’s. SLE’s are currently paid from the Palm Desert budget, which has resulted in a budget shortfall.

$8,944.00 3 $26,832.00

Such an assessment benefits both the English courses and, in turn, the entire college. It allows English faculty to create better continuity across the many sections we offer, determine effective curricular changes and strategies as we comply with AB 705, assess and revise SLOs to meet accreditation requirements, and have a more accurate understanding of our students’ literacy skills. This ability to reflect accurately on how well the English faculty prepares students for writing across the college curriculum gives us the opportunity to better help students succeed not just in English, but in all classes that require literacy skills.

Creating and implementing a holistic writing assessment is a large undertaking, but in our English Department, we have qualified faculty with experience coordinating holistically scored programmatic assessments. These faculty members have participated in writing placement programs, writing exit exams, and writing program assessments at several colleges, and among these faculty members we have people who have already worked as coordinators of such programs. If we are granted the funding for this assessment, we have the knowledge and experience to design and implement this assessment.

Annual Resources Needed:-Two coordinating faculty, each working 40 hours a year (total of $4640 at the current lab rate)—coordinating faculty will implement the assessment, collect the assessment artifacts, coordinate and lead the scoring sessions, test and monitor reliability and validity measures, record data, and disseminate the findings to the English Department and college administration.-Eight reading faculty, each working 20 hours a year (total of $9280 at the current lab rate)—reading faculty perform the holistic scoring of student writing during the assessment sessions. -Total estimated annual cost: $13,920

Student Library Employees budget - Palm Springs Learning Resource Center

The College opened a new branch at Palm Springs, the PSTC, in fall 2017, staffing with Library Specialists for 24 hours per week, paid out of the Palm Desert budget. As the library presence on that campus grows, a demand for basic reference will be difficult given the limited staffing. SLE’s will handle basic manual tasks associated with learning resources processing and maintenance, freeing staff time to work in service to student and faculty needs. Information literacy instruction provided by librarians will positively affect SLO’s. There are no SLEs at this time, and no budget for Specialists.
