Goal Setting (focus: Standing Committees)

Discussing our goals for the year

Need to decide what we want to do with standing committees that are part of the new bylaws and constitution

• Equity, Inclusion and Recognition (at-large reps)
• Professional development committee (2 people from senate or 1 person from senate and Claudia as a rep along with her job role)

Everyone is pretty busy, so filling two new committees might be tough right now.  We are thinking that it might be better to do less for now and do those successfully rather than try to fill everything all at once

Open discussion about strong feelings/opinions on what we should try to do.

Question about what EIR will be doing:

• We want to look at how we can recognize classified employees. In the past it has just been about who goes above and beyond.  But we also want to recognize employees who infuse equity into their day to day work
• The committee will be looking at who is going to be recognized.  Should be able to do both the "above and beyond" employees and also equity
• Committee is multi-faceted and includes recognition of some kind.  In the past there weren't many monthly nominees
• Trying to re-envision and with more specific awards and recognition (equity, inclusion, above and beyond, etc as the "awards")

Professional development committee is a bit less defined. In the past, there was some PD offered through CS that is different from what the college offers as PD

 Voted via Zoom poll about which committee to prioritze for fall.  9 for PD, 4 for EIR

• Will prioritize PD over EIR for fall
• Next meeting we will talk about what we want the PD committee to do. Come up with some simple goals for as we start recruiting people
• Start looking at the EIR committee in February or March
  • Have a recognition/event for classified professionals week
