Public Comment None

Minutes Mr. Palombo moved to approve the minutes of the January 19, 2016 regular meeting of the

College's Board of Trustees. Mr. Retsch seconded the motion and it carried on a unanimous voice vote.

President's Report Drs. Reber and Postupac recently attended the Community College National Legislative Summit in

Washington, D.C., hosted by the Association for Community College Trustees (ACCT). During the Summit, Dr. Postupac participated in meetings as a member of the ACCT Northeast Regional Nominating Committee. Dr. Reber participated in meetings with Senator Bob Casey and with members of Senator Pat Toomey’s staff.

Dr. Reber has been in communication with the Beaver County Commissioners regarding the College’s budget process and needs, and he recently met with Commissioner Sandie Egley and Financial Administrator Ricardo Luckow. The new budget proposed by the current Board of Commissioners would maintain our spring 2016 appropriation as previously approved by the former Board, including a $300,000 operating increase approved last April. We expect to receive payment of this appropriation soon. Half of the appropriation planned for July 2016 may be postponed until January 2017, and, if so, will be included in the County’s 2017 budget. College administration is working on line-of-credit contingencies for next year to ensure positive cash flow in view of this potential change in appropriation timing and the possibility of another state budget impasse next year.

Governor Tom Wolf released his proposed budget for fiscal year 2017 and proposed an additional $10.7 million for community colleges (a 5% increase) in the current year, and an additional 5% increase of $11.3 million for next year. In total the Governor is proposing an increase of $22.1 million for Pennsylvania’s 14 community colleges over the current appropriation.

Campus-wide planning has begun for the 2016-17 budget. Dr. Reber has asked budget managers to identify potential reductions of up to 10% of their operating budgets, and has invited requests for new projects that have the potential to support increased enrollment and revenue. The process will include planning for various scenarios in county and state appropriation for next year while also continuing to focus on opportunities to grow our enrollment, quality and impact on our students and the region.

Col. Bill Pinter recently shared statistics concerning post-graduation plans for the first cohort of the Aviation Academy. Of the 22 high school seniors currently enrolled in the Academy, 18 are planning to enroll as full-time students at CCBC in fall 2016. The remaining four students plan to continue their education at other colleges/universities or plan to join the military.

Dr. Reber, Dr. Melissa Denardo, and Mr. John Goberish recently met with Mr. Nathan Murray and Mr. Joe Minnitte from Shell Oil Company. Mr. Murray traveled from Houston for this meeting. Discussion surrounded the progress that CCBC is making in the Process Technology and Advanced Manufacturing programs, and the needs that the College will help address if Shell decides to proceed with construction of the proposed ethane cracker plant. Conversation also included the topic of an Advanced Manufacturing, Technology and Energy Studies High School Academy to begin in fall 2017.

The administration is continuing to refine the Vision, Mission and Strategic Priorities statements. Plans are to move forward with a request for approval from the Board at the March meeting. Goal and operational plan development will then move forward and be completed before July 1.

Nationwide searches are currently underway for the positions of Executive Vice President and Provost, and Vice President of Finance and Operations. Ads have been placed nationally and regionally. Applications are now being accepted. Search committees will be appointed soon. On-campus interviews will be scheduled in April and appointments will begin on or about July 1.

The Landscaping Steering Committee met recently with Nancy Roman and her colleagues from Pashek Associates. Priorities and parameters have been identified for landscaping, campus signage and parking lot repaving. Ms. Roman and her team are developing various creative concepts to present to the college community.

The CCBC Titans Men’s Basketball Team has been successful this year both on and off the court. The team is performing well academically and players continue to receive academic support and tutoring while they are also excelling in team play. With an overall record of 16-12, the Titans have won 11 out of their last 12 games and are the Western Pennsylvania Collegiate College Champions with a conference record of 11-1. The region tournament will be played at Hagerstown Community College at the end of February, and the top two teams from that tournament will advance to the NJCAA Division II national tournament in mid-March. Many of CCBC’s student athletes are being recruited to four-year schools.

CCBC’s Practical Nursing program was recently ranked first in Pennsylvania by PracticalNursing.org. The organization reviewed the results of the National Council Licensure Exam for Practical Nurses (NCLEX-PN) over the past 5 years to determine how well a school is preparing students for a career as a practical nurse. For nine out of the last ten years, CCBC has boasted an NCLEX-PN pass-rate of 100%.

Report from the Student Representative to the Board of Trustees No report. Ms. Beardmore absent.

Community College of Beaver County Report to the Board of Trustees March 2016 President Dr. Chris Reber

Strategic Planning Update

The CCBC community has continued to review and refine our proposed Vision, Mission and Strategic Priorities statements and we are very pleased to present our updated statements for your consideration and, hopefully, approval this evening. With your approval, Leslie Tennant and her team are planning to have new banners created that celebrate our four strategic priorities: “Leadership and Service,” “Partnerships and Preparation,” “Expansion and Innovation,” and “Connections and Engagement,” in addition to several 50th anniversary banners that will replace current banners across the campus.

President’s Executive Council members are now beginning their work on specific goals and objectives to operationalize our strategic plan, which is on schedule to be completed before July 1.

Campus Renovations Update

As you’ll hear from others, our campus renovations are progressing very nicely. Our interior digital monitors will soon be installed throughout the campus, and Pashek Associates is making great progress on the landscaping, parking repaving and campus signage planning. We expect to circulate bids with a number of alternate scenarios in the next month or so.

Budget Update

Last week CCBC received the expected County appropriation payment of $2,521,250 that included the County’s annual share of our new capital bond project and an operating increase of $300,000 approved by the former Beaver County Board of Commissioners. As we discussed recently with Commissioner Egley and Financial Administrator Luckow, half of our July 2016 appropriation payment will be delayed until January 2017. We are currently working on our proposed 2016-17 college budget that will include operating cost reductions in tandem with strategic investments that are targeted to support enrollment and revenue increases. We will provide additional information at the April meeting and expect to bring a completed budget proposal to the May meeting for your review and action.

Search Update

Searches are underway for our Executive Vice President and Provost, Vice President for Finance and Operations, and Dean of High School Academies and Dual Enrollment positions. Screening committees are reviewing applications and we are on track to conduct on-campus interviews in April.

Western Pennsylvania Community College Leadership Institute

We held our first monthly meeting of the Western Pennsylvania Community College Leadership Institute last week at BC3. As you will recall, the Institute is a partnership of CCBC, Butler County Community College and Westmoreland County Community College. Twenty-three members of the faculty and staff at our colleges, including eight CCBC colleagues, are participating. Our team includes Megan Cassioli, Joyce Cirelli, Mark Dietrick, Sarajane Hill, Jan Kaminski, Shelly Moore, Patrick Phillips and Katie Thomas. Brian Hayden is graciously serving as the Institute Coordinator. The experience will include a capstone project that each team will create for implementation at their campus. CCBC’s project will focus on development of financial aid and other support services for our growing cadre of High School Academy students.

Aspen Prize Application

As you are aware, we recently submitted our application to the Aspen Institute for the Aspen Prize for Community College Excellence. The content of our application illustrates tremendous initiatives and progress in our efforts to support student success, degree completion, and the use of data to guide planning and action. As I mentioned in a recent note to all of you, the invitation to submit the application as one of the nation’s Top 150 community colleges identified by the Aspen Institute is a tribute to every member of the CCBC community, starting with our Trustees who establish and support our direction and priorities. We will discuss the application and the supporting data with our Achieving the Dream coaches, Dr. Mary Fifield and Dr. Ron Head, when they visit CCBC at the end of March. Thank you all for your support and guidance!

Interim Director of Facilities and Grounds With the upcoming departure of Mike Schneider, it is important to identify an individual to serve as Interim Director of Facilities and Grounds so that the College does not lose continuity with the projects that are currently underway. Chris Reber, Mike Schneider, and Scott Monit recently met with Mr. John Armstrong. Mr. Armstrong was recommended for consideration by Dr. Nicholas Neupauer, President of Butler County Community College. If hired, he would serve in the position for up to one year until a permanent director is hired.

Dr. Reber also invited requests for new projects that have the potential to support increased enrollment and revenue.

Presidential Ambassadors Plans are underway to establish a new leadership opportunity for students. In contrast to the current CCBC Ambassador program, which accepts applications from high school seniors who plan to attend CCBC, the new Presidential Ambassadors program will also provide transfer

6.3

students with the opportunity to represent the College at events and to earn leadership credit for their co-curricular transcript.

Once accepted into the program, the Presidential Ambassadors will assist at College events such as New Student Orientation and programs originating from the President’s Office. Unlike the CCBC Ambassador Program, the Presidential Ambassadors will not receive scholarships. To differentiate between the two groups, the CCBC Ambassadors will transition to a new title of CCBC Scholars.

All-Pennsylvania Student Scholarship Recipients Two students have been selected to represent CCBC as members of the All-PA Academic Team. The All-PA Academic Team award recognizes exceptional students who have achieved academic excellence and demonstrated a commitment to their colleges and communities. Students Liana Muia and Marcia Gordon will receive full tuition to attend a PASSHE school of their choice. As members of the Academic Team, Liana and Marcia will attend Student Lobby Day in Harrisburg in April. Both students will be introduced to the Trustees at the March Board Meeting.

Applications have been received for the positions of Executive Vice President and Provost, Vice President for Finance and Operations, and Dean of High School Academies.

The Western Pennsylvania Community College Leadership Institute will kick-off on Monday, March 7 and will provide participants with the opportunity to hone leadership skills and consider career advancement. Each college has selected up to eight employees, including faculty and staff, to participate in the year-long program. The meetings will take place monthly and will rotate among the campus locations. At the conclusion of the Leadership Institute, teams from each school will complete a group capstone project that can be implemented on campus.

Aspen Prize Application In February, CCBC was selected by the Aspen Institute as one of the top 150 Community Colleges in the country. The selected colleges were invited to complete an application for the Aspen Prize, which is awarded to one college with a prize of $1 million. Applications are due on Friday, March 4. Several employees contributed to the completion of CCBC’s application.

Student Representative to the Board of Trustees Taylor Beardmore’s term as Student Representative to the Board of Trustees expires in May. The ad for a new student representative will be posted on Monday, March 14. Leanne Condron will coordinate the purchase of a gift for Taylor from the Trustees.

Publications The Department is working collaboratively across campus to revamp and refresh a variety of admissions and enrollment-related publications, including the view book, college catalog, and fast facts pieces. In addition, new pieces are being created to better align with and support the new communications campaign implemented by Enrollment Services, which tracks students from inquiry to graduation.

Summer Registration A comprehensive advertising plan, entitled “Soak up Some Summer Courses,” is currently being created and executed across various communications channels, including social media, the college website, online advertising, Pandora Radio, digital signage, open house event, and a unique landing page that provides an easy to use listing of all summer course offerings. The target audiences for this campaign include current CCBC students and transient students. Students who register for any summer class/classes will receive a free pair of CCBC sunglasses.

Social Media The following charts show CCBC’s social media activity in February 2015 compared to February 2016. It is not a representation of a full year, but a monthly side-by-side comparison. Based on these stats we can see a major shift happening with regard to engagement within our social networks and where our users are going to learn more about us.

Dr. Moore provided an outline of pass rates for licensure and registry. This information will be helpful to share on webpages and other promotional outlets.

School of Business, Arts, Sciences and Technology Dr. John Higgs

The Curriculum Committee recently reviewed 41 associate degree programs and 4 certificate programs. Throughout the process, revisions were made to provide consistency in language, including framework required by the Pennsylvania Transfer and Articulation Oversight Committee (TAOC) which focuses on the number of courses that students can transfer to another institution. Revisions to some program structures allow more focused and relevant electives choices for students. A review and revision to the program structure also reduced the number of courses without sufficient enrollment; this resulted in fewer course cancellations.

Progress is being made in the area of partnerships with institutions of higher education as well as in high schools.

• A new partnership with Point Park University will allow CCBC to offer an associate degreeprogram in Sports, Arts and Entertainment Management.

• Dr. Chris Reber, Dr. Melissa Denardo, and Dr. Higgs are scheduled to meet with representativesfrom Norwich University (Vermont). CCBC and Norwich have an articulation agreement, and theUniversity is interested in providing courses on CCBC’s campus.

• Dr. Higgs recently met with representatives from Robert Morris University. The Universityapproached CCBC with 30 potential articulation agreements.

School of Aviation Sciences Col. Bill Pinter

Col. Bill Pinter shared the vision for future growth of the Aviation Sciences program. An important component of this growth will be the matriculation of Aviation Academy students to full-time enrollment at CCBC. Over the course of the last year, the College has forged multiple new partnerships including the additional Aviation Academy site at Parkway West in Allegheny County. CCBC recently applied to be a test site for the PELL Experiment which would provide PELL funding for students who are enrolled in dual-enrollment programs; if successful, this could also lead to funding for students enrolled in the CCBC Academy programs. As the College creates partnerships with schools outside of Beaver County, it is important that we create a positive CCBC brand to present to those who are not familiar with our programs.

Col. Pinter shared the strategic enrollment plan for programs, strategies and enrollment goals in the School of Aviation Sciences.

Student Services and Enrollment Ms. Jan Kaminski

Ms. Jan Kaminski provided an overview and handout outlining three programs from which students receive financial and academic support: Act 101 Program, Student Veterans Assistance Program, and Perkins Program.

Act 101

Students who qualify for PHEAA’s Act 101 program test into developmental coursework and have family income equal to or less than 200% of federal poverty income guidelines. Through state-funded dollars, students are provided with personal mentors, free tutoring, access to the lending library, and academic survival kits. According to recently provided data, the 70.66% first-year retention rate for Act 101 students from fall 2013 to fall 2014 exceeded the national average rate of 68%. Act 101 students earned a higher cumulative GPA in remedial courses compared to the general undergraduate population. The college-level course completion rate of 90.45% for Act 101 students exceeded all other credential seeking undergraduates at Act 101 schools of 89.77%

Student Veterans Assistance Program

The Student Veterans Assistance Program is funded by the College and provides academic support and supplies for Veterans. Moving forward, success of the program will rely on the exploration of funding opportunities and increased recruit enrollment. This will include marketing and showcasing the Veterans Center. When compared to the fall 2015 to spring 2016 persistence rate of 55% for First-Time in College (FTIC) CCBC students, Veterans are more successful than the general population at large with a persistence rate of 70.2%; the persistence rate for the dependents of student Veterans during the same timeframe is 90%.

9.1

of 70

Federal Perkins Program

Qualifying indicators for students who receive funding from the Federal Perkins Program include: Individuals with disabilities, individuals from economically disadvantaged families (including foster children), individuals preparing for non-traditional fields, single parents (including single pregnant women), displaced homemakers, individuals with limited English proficiency and migrants. Our students identify special populations on a voluntary basis on their enrollment application. Those who qualify are provided with services in the Library.

Community College of Beaver County Report to the Board of Trustees March 2016 Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost Dr. Melissa Denardo

Provost Report

School of Nursing and Allied Health The School of Nursing and Allied Health is receiving completed applications for the Health Academy. Acceptance letters have been sent out to the first 10 students (as of February 29). Many more applications are expected.

Melissa Raab and Shelly Moore recently visited with administrators of several long term care facilities in the region to discuss our Nurse Aide program. Several facilities were not aware that we had a nurse aide program. They have agreed to refer students to us. Marketing materials will be developed and sent to each of the facilities. Four members of Rochester Manor and Villa visited the Health Science Center and several administrators from Villa St. Joseph are expected to visit soon. There is interest in holding a shortened summer Nurse Aide course and this is being pursued.

Shelly Moore and Janet Davidson will meet with members of Clarion University to discuss details of a consortium agreement for the RN-BSN program. There already is enough interest for CUP to consider holding the hybrid courses at CCBC this fall.

Deb Schepis and Shelly Moore presented information about nursing and other health care careers to 15 high school students in the Central Valley School District during a Career Day session in February. The presentation included information about the Health Academy. Shelly has also been invited to present to the middle school students later in the month.

The Practical Nursing program was rated #1 of 55 programs in Pennsylvania by the experts at PRACTICALnursing.org. The recognition is based on analysis of data from the past 5 years. To date, 6 of the 7 PN graduates from December 2015 have taken and passed the NCLEX-PN on the first attempt. The final student is expected to take the exam soon.

School of Aviation Sciences On Wednesday, March 2 a teleconference occurred between Pennsylvania Department of Education (Ms. Patricia Landis), Southern Illinois University (Dr. Joe Ruiz), and CCBC (Dr. Melissa Denardo and Col. Bill Pinter) to discuss the expected decision concerning SIU’s application to provide an Aerospace Management BS degree at the Aviation Sciences Center. It was a productive teleconference with Ms. Landis stating that an initial decision would be made within the next week. If approved, the remaining part of the approval process for a final decision will take up to 12 weeks. On Friday, March 4, Dr. Denardo received communication from Dr. Landis indicating that she is approving the request and that the process would take approximately 12 weeks to complete.

Aviation and Health Academies are expanding their school district partnerships into Lawrence County with Lincoln, Laurel and Mohawk School Districts currently partnering for the 2016-17 academic year.

School of Business, Arts, Sciences, and Technology Over the past few months, Dr. John Higgs and faculty completed a comprehensive review of 41 associate degree programs within the School of Business, Arts, Sciences, and Technology. The updates provided consistent language and terminology in the college catalog and focuses students' electives options on the Pennsylvania transfer framework. These changes clarify program requirements for students (and faculty, advisors and counselors), reduce the breadth of the college course offerings (which increases scheduling efficiency) while simultaneously increasing students’ scheduling flexibility, and ensure greater likelihood of credit transfer for all programs. Four certificate programs were also updated.

A new associate degree program, Sports, Arts, and Entertainment Management, was developed in collaboration with CCBC’s John Ashalou and colleagues from Point Park University. The program will articulate directly into Point Park University's thriving Sports, Arts and Entertainment Management major. The collaboration will also support student and faculty engagement and partnerships between both institutions.

Ten new courses were created including two new courses in organic chemistry to permit the College to fully serve students in the Biological Sciences, Environmental Science, and Natural Science programs. Currently, students in these programs must take organic chemistry at other institutions to complete their degrees, which increases costs for students and reduces enrollment and revenue for the College. Two new courses in engineering have been added to the Pre-Engineering program to provide a fundamental grounding in engineering concepts. Adding the organic chemistry and engineering courses not only strengthens the respective programs, but readies the programs for inclusion in the STEM-oriented Advanced Manufacturing, Engineering, and Sciences High School Academy that will launch in fall 2017.

In February, the pre-requisite structure of 15 courses was updated to clarify course entry requirements, which will ensure that students possess sufficient background knowledge to succeed in the courses.

Dr. Higgs is working with administration at Norwich University to update our current articulation agreement and plan for Norwich to offer courses on campus. A meeting is scheduled for Monday, March 28 to discuss Norwich’s interest in teaching on campus.

A meeting is scheduled for Monday, March 21 with colleagues from Carlow University to create an array of articulation agreements.

We are in conversation with the Dean of the Technical and Industrial Division at Mid-State Technical College (WI) to source the content and equipment needs for an advanced manufacturing program that will complement our Process Technology program.

Eighteen late-start classes are running with 187 enrollments.

Dr. Higgs represented CCBC at the Global Passport Project (GPP) meeting held at the South Fayette School District. GPP includes a consortium of schools and businesses focused on providing high school students with the opportunity to work alongside business partners to apply what they are learning in the classroom in order to solve real-world business problems. Blackhawk High School is partnering with First Energy Corporation to provide students in Advanced Placement Environmental Science with the opportunity to work alongside engineers to solve live problems. The students participating in the project will earn three credits in BIOL110, Human Ecology and Heredity. Fifteen students are enrolled in the course with 12 students electing to enroll in BIOL110.

California University of Pennsylvania (CalU) has begun a promotional campaign entitled “The Finish Line” in which the University is identifying and reaching out to people who have earned credits but have not completed a bachelor’s degree. The University launched the campaign in November 2015 focused on CalU alumni. The campaign netted 107 registrations for the spring semester (976 credits). CalU is looking to partner with other Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education institutions as well as the state’s community colleges in a “Preferred Pathways Partnership Bachelor’s Degree Completion Program.” Butler County Community College, the Community College of Allegheny County, Westmoreland County Community College, and the Community College of Beaver County were invited to a participate in a presentation of the campaign and the degree completion program. Sandy May, Associate Director of Pre-Enrollment and Dr. Higgs represented the College at the meeting.

Dr. Mark Deitrick, Professor and Coordinator, met with the Director of Health and Education Services at the Lawrence County Community Action Partnership (LCCAP) to discuss a potential partnership. LCCAP serves 508 Head Start children, 136 Pre-K children, and 112 Early Head Start children, and wishes to explore training and education opportunities for approximately 50 staff members. Dr. Deitrick, Dr. Higgs, and Ms. Jacque Black, Professor, Early Childhood Education are scheduled to meet with the director in late March.

Workforce and Continuing Education Non-credit spring courses began the week of February 1, and non-credit summer courses and camps are currently being finalized.

Certificate programs scheduled for spring (Utilizing CareerLink and OVR Funding) include:

Intro to Manufacturing May 2nd Start $25,000 Welding May Start $35,000 Wastewater Treatment May 2nd Start $28,000 Online Training Ongoing $20,000 EMT April 5 Start $11,000

With the recent partial approval of the Pennsylvania budget and the confirmation of WEDnetPA dollars being released, CCBC’s Workforce and Continuing Education Division is currently conducting and scheduling contract training.

Community College of Beaver County Report to the Board of Trustees March 2016 Dean – Student Services and Enrollment Ms. Jan Kaminski

Goal Area: Student Success

The Role of Tutoring for the Academies Ms. Jan Kaminski is in conversation with Col. Bill Pinter and Ms. Joyce Cirelli regarding the need for academic support services, specifically tutoring, for the Aviation and Health Academies. Ms. Kaminski is exploring the use of existing institutional dollars and grant funds to address the need for both tutoring and lab equipment for both programs.

Goal Area: At-Risk Student Success

Act 101 Higher Education Opportunity Act Program The College is submitting an application for continued grant funds from PHEAA for the Act 101 Higher Education Opportunity Program. This program provides tutoring, mentoring, academic survival kits, and a lending library for students who test into developmental course work and also whose income falls within the limits of the Poverty Guidelines. The 70.66% first year retention rate for Act 101 students (Fall 13 to Fall 14) exceeded the national average rate of 68%. Act 101 students earned a higher cumulative GPA in remedial courses (2.48) compared to the general undergraduate population (2.17). The 90.45% college-level course completion rate for Act 101 students exceeded the 89.77% rate of all other credential seeking undergraduates at Act 101 schools.

Student Veterans Assistance Program The persistence rate of student veterans from fall 2015 to spring 2016 is 70.2%, and the persistence rate for the dependents of student veterans from fall 2015 to spring 2016 is 90%. Both populations exceed the persistence rate of 55% for First-Time-in-College (FTIC) CCBC students.

Perkins Special Populations Program The graduation rate for special populations is 80.36% and exceeds the state performance rate of 66%. The technical skill attainment rate is 64.13% compared to the state expectation rate of 77%. These rates will be addressed at the upcoming Perkins Participatory Planning Committee meeting in May and June prior to grant submission. Perkins defines “special populations” as individuals with disabilities; individuals from economically disadvantaged families, including foster children; individuals preparing for non-traditional fields; single parents, including single pregnant women; displaced homemakers; individuals with limited English proficiency, and migrants.

Goal Area: Student Success

Enrollment Services The department is represented at meetings for Jenzabar User Group (JUG), Enrollment Management Group (EMG), Financial Aid Reinstatement, Achieving the Dream (ATD), Institutional Effectiveness Council (IEC), and 50th Anniversary Planning Committee.

The department is represented on two Pennsylvania Commission for Community Colleges (PACCC) working groups. These initiatives include statewide standards for Prior Learning Assessment (PLA) and Reverse Transfer.

Several representatives from the department attended a workshop at Nova Chemicals to learn more about process technology careers. In addition, several representatives attended the workshop “Working with International Students on Your Campus” sponsored by University of Pittsburgh.

Admissions, Recruitment & Placement Testing In February, 114 new applications were processed with corresponding acceptance letters mailed. 56 admissions interviews were conducted on campus with prospective students. 35 students completed placement testing. Our first application has been received for CCBC’s Health Academy. Recruiting efforts for the month of February include emails and telephone calls to potential students. Recruiting staff conducted agency outreach to assist prospective students with enrollment.

The RN program admittance information has been processed and sent to the Allied Health Department for final review. Testing and interviews are complete for admittance into the Radiologic Technician program.

Admissions and Recruiting conducted a campus visit for seniors and juniors from New Brighton High School. 20 students attended and Supportive Services provided information to those students.

Student Ambassadors The CCBC Student Ambassadors have been busy assisting with blogging, proctoring tests, the Beaver County Counselors Meeting, juggling at half time during CCBC basketball games, attending our employee giving campaign, and making testimonials with marketing for our YouTube site.

Counseling Office

During the months of January and February the counselors visited the College Success/Titan Transitions classrooms. They administered and evaluated the Kiersey Personality Test and discussed how personality affects study skills and career choices. We also discussed leadership styles and team building in Captain Carmen Romeo’s aviation classes.

Ms. Lauren Susan attended the Process Technology program site visit to Nova Chemicals on Tuesday, February 2. The visit provided an opportunity to review the jobs available to our students and the type of training that will be necessary for our students to be successful.

Counselors attended the “Working with International Students on Your Campus” professional development workshop offered at CCBC by the University of Pittsburgh on Friday, February 12. The agenda focused on student life, admissions, orientation and advising of international students.

Ms. Lauren Susan collaborated with Ms. Joyce Cirelli, Director of Radiological Technology Programs, to host the Beaver County Counselors Association meeting on the CCBC campus on Friday, February 19. Ms. Peggy Hennequant and Ms. Karen Ganska attended the program which highlighted the new Allied Health Academy. Mr. George Pacinda spoke on behalf of Lincoln Learning Solutions to inform the counselors of the scholarship opportunities for their students to attend the academies. The day concluded with professional development speaker Mr. Norm Mitry, CEO of Heritage Valley Health Systems, who spoke on the topic of work-life balance.

Ms. Peggy Hennequant participated in a Webinar, “Transcript Processing and Evaluation,” sponsored by Jenzabar on Thursday, February 25. The Jenzabar advisory group wanted to understand the processes college/universities are currently using to approve transfer courses for students. They will be updating the Jenzabar offerings and wanted to focus on the college’s priorities for their upgrades.

Financial Aid The College received tentative funding levels for Federal Work Study and Federal SEOG for 2016-2017 award year. CCBC’s funding for the SEOG program is $43,727, which is $5,728 less than 2015-2016. The College’s FWS allowance is $52,825, which is $3,767 less than 2015-2016. Based on the calculations, it appears the change was due to a reduction in the number of Pell grant recipients as well as the Pell grant dollars from 2013-14 to 2014-15.

On February 29, 2015, the College received the preliminary 3-year default rate for the 2013 year. CCBC’s preliminary rate was 13.9% which was down from 2012’s rate of 15.1%.

Seven people attended a FAFSA workshop on Wednesday, February 24. Survey feedback was positive. A second workshop will be held on Saturday April 2, 2016 from 10:00 a.m. to Noon. Six people are currently registered.

Library and Tutor Center Staff completed full research and follow-up instruction in the library computer classroom with 9 classes of students ranging from American government and composition to MLA citation and multi-skilled health technician classes. Several of the classes have begun meeting intermittently in the library interactive area for collaboration and quick research advice on papers from professors, tutors and library staff.

CCBC received approval for approximately $1,500 in grant funds from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services as administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Education and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, through the College and Research Division (http://crdpala.org/) of PaLA. The monies will help fund “A Conversation about Open Educations Resources (OER)” Wednesday, April 13 from 9:00 a.m. to Noon in the LRC. Long-time OER proponent and University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown Librarian Paul Bond will present the benefits of utilizing OER on campus, in the classroom and in the community. Regional college librarians, college support staff and county library system staff members have been invited to share the morning in discussing OER. OER is a presidential mandate and ACD initiative.

The Library is showcasing Irish writers and writings in a display, partnering with the Beaver County Library System for some titles by Irish authors. Staff also partnered with the system for a Women’s History Month table display in the library featuring diverse women who have impacted lives.

Another spotlight display features meditation. Meditation has been a hot topic in the news in relation to brain regeneration, addiction rehabilitation and end-of-life care. The window is a preview to the hosting of a Meditation Marathon by Dr. Cynthia Marshall who will meditate in the window for eight hours on Wednesday, March 23. Collected pledge monies will benefit the CCBC Foundation for scholarship and student emergency funding. Students from the campus meditation group are invited to meditate in the library. Beaver County Times Writer Marsha Keefer will cover the event.

Calculated Computer Circulation rose in the past year from 69,000 to more than 81,000 check-outs in the library.

CCBC garnered positive feedback from students regarding February’s Blind Date with a Book fund. The staff was asked by a group of students to continue the program throughout the year.

The Library partnered with the Fine Arts Department to create a 3D design art display on top of library shelves.

Staff members helped to memorialize much-admired Library Manager Cheryl Herrington by turning the foyer book art display – which was a Christmas Tree and then a campfire ring made of books – into a planter also composed of books. Staff, faculty and students have been encouraged to bring in shamrock plants in Cheryl’s memory as a celebration of her life and work at CCBC.

A collaboration was established with the on-campus Headstart class to utilize the Wee Build Stem Grant materials. The Wee Build Block Party is scheduled for Friday, April 1 in the reading room. The partnership was mentioned in a recent article in the Beaver County Times about libraries that were grant recipients.

Supportive Services and Grants for Special Populations On Tuesday, February 9 a representative of the Supportive Services Office along with recruiters from Enrollment Services hosted 20 special populations students from the New Brighton Area High School. Representatives reviewed CCBC’s enrollment process, major choices, financial aid information and available academic supports. Students took part in a team building exercise and completed their visit with a campus tour.

Student Programs and Activities SGA (Student Government Association) is currently distributing food donations to self-identified students and employees in need. Any unused foods will be donated to a local food pantry of SGA’s choice.

SGA will be planning additional dates for their gently used business and business-casual clothing sale. Some students were not able to attend during the previous dates and some were unable to find clothing in their size. Additional donations have been received to expand the styles and sizes available.

Student Activities and SGA continue to work with Ms. Donna Bogle’s team development classes for their group projects.

Athletics and Intramurals

Athletics Softball is in the midst of preparing for their upcoming season and Coach Gearhart is enthused by the progress that the team has made in a short period of time. The Lady Titans will start their official season on Wednesday, March 16 when they travel to Potomac State College for a double-header. The home opener is a double-header and is scheduled for Sunday, March 20 against Cecil College at 1:00 pm and 3:00 p.m. Both games will feature competition against some of the higher ranked Region 20 opponents.

The Men’s Basketball team finished the season with a 17-13 overall record and an 11-1 record in the Western Pennsylvania Collegiate Conference. The team made it to the NJCAA Region 20 tournament at Hagerstown Community College where they lost in a highly contested game against the 17th nationally-ranked Potomac State College. Coach Brodzinski is optimistic with the direction of the program after its first year back in operation. Three of the student-athletes received WPCC All-Conference recognition for their on-court efforts. Several members of the team are receiving scholarship offers and recruiting attention from numerous four-year institutions. Ryan Skovranko, a sophomore on the Men’s Basketball team, has committed to attend West Chester University next year on a full basketball scholarship. Coach Brodzinski continues his recruiting efforts for the 2016-17 season by attending WPIAL and PIAA high school basketball playoff games.

The interview process for our vacant Head Women’s Volleyball coaching position has begun. We have narrowed the field of applicants and will make an offer to the top candidate by mid-March. The goal is to have a coach in place within the next month to give them a jump start on recruiting for the upcoming season.

Intramurals The intramural program is continuing to offer multiple activities for students. The largest response is from the fitness classes, Fierce Funk, SouLift, and Walk & Talk. After Spring Break, daily tournaments will be introduced. The CCBC community has been invited to take part in three trips this semester. The first was in late-February to a Youngstown Phantom Hockey game. We are also offering trips to Seven Springs in March and a trip to watch the Pittsburgh Pirates in April.

*After days of checking and rechecking our data, we have to

acknowledge a data anomaly on these charts, especially for the mathematics developmental educaiton (two course-levels below college level). While we know that more than this very limited number of students did in fact place into and take out second level developmental mathematics course during this year, our data does not reflect this. If we run the same reports for all students (not just first-time entry) or for years other than 2008 and 2009, we do show more compelte results. Unfortunately, after extensive attempts to resolve this, we are not able to do so. However, during this time period, significant changes were being made to the developmental programs, including the policies and procedures for testing and placing new students, which may account for this issue.
