Assistant Chair/Assessment Coordinator for Global Studies (Goal #3) Print All

Initiative Title	Assistant Chair/Assessment Coordinator for Global Studies (Goal #3)
Submitted in Previous Year(s)	No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale	The Global Studies Department has approximately 25 full- and part-time faculty. This requires scheduling, book-ordering, faculty evaluation, more recently, expanding our focus on course-level and programmatic assessment, as well as many other supervisory duties. In order to accomplish these various tasks an Assistant Chair/Assessment Coordinator is imperative to the Department. The Current Special Assistant position is inadequate to meeting these specific demands. With the addition of the Assistant Chair/Assessment Coordinator, we foresee positive results: -Enhance Enrollment/Retention through school visits, coordination with CCHS -Oversee and develop data for and from Department/College Assessment -Help to close the feedback loop between College, Department and Faculty with regard to assessment
Consequences of this initiative not being funded	Without funding/support the department cannot continue to grow to meet the needs and demands of students, faculty and staff through a culture of assessment.
