Committee:
Governance and Internal Policy Committee
Whereas, Community Colleges have a high turnover rate of students since we are a gateway to 4year institutions;
Whereas, Since Region Executive Board and Region Delegates tend to shift on a yearly basis, there is a learning curve as to where last year left off since knowledge of how to conduct legislative visits. read bills, etc., is lost in the transfer process;
Whereas, Having a handbook for each Region would allow other’s get the idea how neighboring regions operate and succeed; and
Whereas, These handbooks would contain topics pertaining to, but ultimately up to the Region, such as procedures, taskforces, potential ideas for the following year, goals for the year etc.;
Resolved, That the Student Senate for California Community Colleges Student Senate Council create a transition handbook containing procedures, potential ideas, goals, information, recommendations, training materials, and reports regarding the administration of Regions and regional duties, and urge each Region to create a similar handbook which would be uploaded to the SSCCC’s website, that would help ensure longevity and sharing of knowledge; and
Resolved, That the Student Senate for California Community Colleges Continuously ensure the document is renewed for each region prior June 30th of each year.
