Participatory Governance

Participatory Governance at òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµ refers to the participation of faculty, staff, and students in institutional decision-making. òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµ values the voices of its constituent groups; good decisions are made when groups are able to share and listen to diverse perspectives.

Through òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµâ€™s participatory governance, constituent groups communicate their perspectives and voices to those who have the responsibility for making final institutional decisions: the Superintendent/President and the Board of Trustees. òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµâ€™s Participatory Governance Handbook serves as a resource guide to institutional decision-making processes and norms.

Decision Making Committees and Groups

There are two types of groups in institutional decision-making:  governance groups and operational groups:

  • Governance groups focus on governance tasks: developing recommendations on Board Policies and on the academic and professional matters defined in California Code of Regulations Title 5 § 53200 (10+1). òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµ has two governance groups: the Academic Senate and Curriculum Advisory Committee.
  • Operational groups focus on the operational tasks required to implement Board Policies and administrative procedures and ensure smooth operation of the college.  òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµ relies on a number of operational groups to complete this work, including administrative unit groups, and college-wide committees.

Current operational groups include:

INTEGRATED CONSULTATION COUNCIL (ICC) 

ACADEMIC SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES

ASSOCIATED STUDENT GOVERNMENT (ASG)
