Student Services Planning Committee Final Report 1.a. Accomplishments: ‣ The survey created by Mr. Chipman and our two students representatives, Tyler Fuller (SAC member) and Karley Jensen (student ambassador) were given to students at our two co-curricular presentations in the Spring term. The survey will be slightly modified in the future to include more information based on student feedback. ‣ Hired Lindsey Fritz as the new Coordinator of Student Life and Development. Lindsey is in the process of reviewing the Student Life manual and the clubs and organization manual. She has been assigned the task to continue to develop and modify survey instruments for Student Life. She has also been charged with recording the feedback given by students and composing the information for the associate dean of Student Development. 1.b. Accomplishments: ‣ Held the second leadership seminar on Wednesday, February 23. The seminar was presented by Donna Smith and focused on “Leadership Across the Generations”. The students surveyed reported a 4.6 satisfaction rate out of 5. A presentation for high school students was not implemented in the Spring as the new hire did not arrive until March and time constraints on the associate dean, who was both the trainer and manager of Student Life, prevented any further developments. All student leaders from SAC, Phi Theta Kappa, Baccalaureates Scholars, Student Ambassadors, and club presidents were invited similar to the last event, but an invitation was also extended to TRIO students. 1.c. Accomplishments: ‣ Student Life assisted with the Humanities video series by supporting the “Waiting for Superman” video shown in April. Also in April, C.L. Lindsay was invited to present legal information to students regarding their 4 th amendment rights. Special invitations were given to faculty from our Political Science and Paralegal courses to encourage student participation. Lindsey has budgeted money for next year to continue hosting co-curricular activities for every term. Lindsey has also been charged with visiting the different divisions and informing them of new ways Student Life can be of assistance to them and sharing her plans for next year. We also anticipate more support for events instigated by her office just as she will continue to support their events. 2.a. Accomplishments: ‣ Career Exploration course (ORIN 1601.810) had 38 students enrolled in the spring offering. Plan to offer again in the summer 2011 as well as the fall 2011. ‣ The design and mounting of the new sign designating the Career Development Center„s location in Student Services is complete. ‣ Continue to assist students with arranging job shadowing experiences, 50 students will have completed a job shadow by the end of the spring term. ‣ The Career Cruising program will be renewed in August as part of the Career Development/Student Services budget. ‣ Emily has been trained in CAI interpretation and has completed interpretations with at least three students. She will be completing MBTI interpretation training in September, 2011. ‣ Emily visited Parkland‟s campus in February. Met their director, discussed resources and was introduced to the IC3P list serve as a result of her visit. ‣ A page for undecided students will be created on KCC‟s web site describing career development services/resources available to assist them in identifying a career goal that is right for them. Those resources will include other web sites that are good sources of occupational information. ‣ A brochure for the Career Development Course and one for the Career Development Center will be developed and produced. 2.b. Accomplished: ‣ “What can I do with a major in XYZ?” software package has been approved by IT for compatibility with KCC‟s web server. The package is fairly inexpensive, and will be purchased by the Career Development Office when the new web page layout has been finalized.

2.c. ‣ New software has been purchased called “Career Liftoff” which is a web based Career Assessment Inventory to also be offered on the Career Development web page in the fall. ‣ Emily is working on strategies to increase student use of the Bullzi career information equipment/program. Accomplished: ‣ Emily has obtained access to a “real time” economic modeling program (EMSI) that provides up-to-date, regional data about the demand, salary, requirements, etc. for a wide variety of occupations. She has been utilizing that program with students requesting that type of information. ‣ Emily has been asked to join the College and Career Readiness Project, and has done so. As part of that team, she will help educate high school students about the education and skills needed in today‟s world of work. ‣ Emily will work with KCC‟s vocational program directors to develop a document which provides career information for each of the college‟s vocational programs.
