Standing Items: These are cyclical/annual items that are a constant part of our work as faculty. Our input is an integral piece of their overall success in the college's work to better serve students either in partnership with others at the campus table or as leaders initiating discussion, movement, or a collaborative solution.
- Review, advise, and refine board policies and administrative procedures that fall under the purview of "10+1" matters as defined by the California Statewide Academic Senate.
- Update faculty regularly on statewide initiatives such as the Online Education Initiative (OEI), Common Assessment Initiative (CAI), Institutional Effectiveness Partnership Initiative (IEPI), and Educational Planning Initiative (EPI).
- Participate in ongoing accreditation-related activities, such as the next accreditation report.
- Promote faculty engagement through targeted outreach to new and tenured faculty in order to improve communication, cohesion, and participation.
- Encourage faculty to serve on statewide initiative committees and subcommittees.
- Orient faculty on the rituals and protocols of senate and the Brown Act.
Shared Governance Items: These items are specific to current issues affecting the integrity of any "10+1" item. Some of these items may be emerging issues in response to state or local decisions that impact the
campus and our work with students, staff, or administrators. It is important that these items be differentiated from those listed above as they must have a clear goal, plan, and end date/solution. Items can come from any member of the campus community but must meet "10+1" areas.
- Active engagement in the Citrus College's Annual Implementation Plan (AIP) to support the college's Strategic Plan (2021-2026).
- Active engagement activities in support of the Guided Pathways planning and development.
- Active engagement in the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility + Committee (DEIA+) to support the anti-racism/no-hate education resolution passed by the Academic Senate.
Academic Senate Items: These items are specific to current issues affecting faculty morale and efficacy. Our work in this area is intended to make the faculty stronger as a whole. These activities may include professional development, but are more closely linked with improving the well-being, agency, and effectiveness of faculty in their day to day lives as members of this community.
- Re-creation of the faculty handbook.
