At the meeting, there were questions raised about compliance (plan for supervision, direct supervision, lab aides, office hours). It was stated that West Valley did a pilot program with seven departments and all but one department could come into compliance with the HBA forms. West Valley will be using these forms in Fall 2005. It was determined that a pilot program needed to be implemented at Mission College. Art, ESL and Math will run a pilot and bring back the results in early Fall 2005. It was agreed to not take this to the Academic Senate until results come back to CRC and a recommendation is made.
