Institutional Self Evaluation – 12-05-12 responsive and have been accepted by the Commission. All of these reports were developed with input from a large group of Hartnell community members, and the reports and the Commission‘s response to them are housed on the Hartnell website. The college has appointed an Accreditation Liaison Officer (ALO) for all communication with ACCJC and compliance with Commission standards. The ALO acts as chair of the Accreditation Steering Committee, which consists of writings team co-chairs assigned to each of the four standards. Each team is co-chaired by a faculty member and an administrator. Writing team membership includes faculty members, classified staff, and administrators (IV.A.68). The Board of Trustees receives regular reports on accreditation from the college president and representatives from Academic Affairs and Accreditation. Self Evaluation In the spring of 2007 a comprehensive evaluation team issued seven recommendations and the Accreditation Commission added two Commission Concerns (IV.A.70). The college was placed on Probation. At the time, the ACCJC articulated concern about the veracity of the accreditation Institutional self evaluation submitted for the Spring 2007 visit, as well as the degree of participation by the college community in its compilation. Upon receipt of the letter in June 2007, the college moved swiftly address the recommendations and concerns and to reclaim affirmation of accreditation. By January, 2008, following the submission of a focused report and a visit, the college was removed from probation and placed on warning status (IV.A.71). After a second focused report and visit in March 2008, the ACCJC removed warning status (IV.A.72) and reaffirmed accreditation in June, 2008 (IV.A.73). A third progress report submitted in March 2009 addressed the three remaining recommendations and one Commission concern (IV.A.74), which were deemed to be fully resolved in the follow up letter of June 2009 (IV.A.75). The Midterm report and substantive change reports have been submitted as required. The Hartnell College community strives to be knowledgeable of Commission requirements. A team of nine faculty and administrators participated in a Institutional self evaluation workshop conducted by the ACCJC at San Jose City College in April 2011 (iV.A.76). Later that month, another team of five employees attended a ACCJC-sponsored workshop that addressed ways to integrate planning, budgeting and resource allocation (IV.A.77). In addition, the college sent three members to the WASC Academic Resource Conference in the spring of 2011 (IV.A.78). The college meets its obligations to various other external agencies to the U.S. Department of Education by submitting its various grant reports in a timely and efficient manner. Where appropriate, the reports are received by the Board of Trustees in public meetings. Written reports are made available to the public in Board packets. The college meets this standard. Page 288
