Initiative Title	(VIEW NOTES) Update equipment in science laboratory classrooms
Submitted in Previous Year(s)	2008/9/10
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale	The laboratory equipment in Harriman and Horton is out of date, obsolete, and much of the equipment does not funtion. These labs need to be upgraded. The department has obtained a few grants for some large pieces of equipment but a yearly fund is needed to steadily update/ modernize the labs.
Consequences of this initiative not being funded	These labs support the General Education natural sciences silo , AS engineering, AS Math & Science, required courses for other degrees. It will become increasingly more difficult to offer quality lab courses if the equipment is not replaced.

Institutional Goals

Goal	How will the initiative support this institutional goal?
COLLEGE I: To provide courses in the arts, sciences, health professions, humanities, business and technology at the level of Associate degree programs, certificates, training and developmental programs to meet student needs for further education, employment and personal growth. 6: To assess classroom support and technology needs on a departmental basis and implement the necessary classroom upgrades in a coordinated manner.	All of our chemistry and physical science courses have labs, as required by the natural science General Education silo.
COLLEGE III: To implement technological delivery systems in Academic, Student and Administrative Services. 1: To develop a campus wide technology plan.	we are still using equipment from the 1960's and much of it does not work
STRATEGIC Priority III: Provide adequate resources to allow College to realize its strategic goals.	Without functioning equipment we can not offer a quality laboratory experience to our students
AMP D: Technology h: Ensure that non-computer related technologies or tools and capital equipment needs and budgetary requests are kept current	equipment is out of data by decades.

A prioritized list must be generated by science departments so that as capital funds become available, equipment can be purchased in prioritized order.

Level 4 (PBIE Committee)

The laboratory equipment being used in the science labs in Harriman and Horton is out of date, obsolete, and some is not functional. Much of the equipment was obtained before 1970, and faculty often spend more time repairing and maintaining the equipment than using it to teach. It will become increasingly more difficult to offer quality lab courses if the equipment is not replaced.
