Following are a few examples that illustrate his point: Prevention of Bullying and Workplace Violence Proposed revisions to the College policy and procedure on the Prevention of Workplace Violence, developed by an ad hoc committee of the Staff Council in response to a constituent concern, were accepted by the Staff Council and College Council in December and advanced to the Office of the President. The proposed revisions include language to define bullying and address situations where it occurs. The revised P&P is currently under review by the President's Executive Cabinet (PEC). Employee Code of Conduct Extensive work done within governance on the development of a proposed Employee Code of Conduct laid the framework for a recommended new College policy and procedure now under review by the PEC. Graduation Celebration Dr. Pollard approved a request from governance to reinstate a reception following the graduation ceremony this spring. The College Council asked the president to reinstate the celebration following recommendations from both the Student Council and Faculty Council. Expanded Shuttle Hours Twenty-five hours were added to campus shuttle operations for the spring semester, including more frequent service between the Rockville and Takoma Park/Silver Spring campuses during midday. The Student Council and the Student Services and Success Council met with the parking and transportation manager in the fall to discuss the needs of student shuttle riders, and members requested that a long gap between shuttles during the middle of the day be eliminated. Student Non-Reprisal Statement At the request of the Student Council, the College Council supported a recommendation that the College consider an official statement regarding its commitment to provide an environment in which students and student leaders can participate freely in governance, clubs, public forums or meetings without being subject to undue influence or retaliation of any kind. Dr. Pollard accepted the recommendation and asked Dr. Monica Brown to determine how to best incorporate the statement into College literature. More Transportation Options for Students At the request of the Student Council, the College Council in December asked College leadership to explore options for MC students to be enrolled in the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) University Pass program, under which students could have unlimited rides on Metro bus and train during the semester for a token fee. The council further recommended that the College explore how it could use student transportation fees to defray or subsidize the WMATA University Pass fee. Dr. Pollard supports the request but will need to consider its feasibility before approving. 24/7 Access to Campus Study Space, Wi-Fi A recommendation from the Student Council that the College examine the feasibility of opening one building on each campus with access to Wi-Fi and computers 24 hours a day, seven days a week, was endorsed by the College Council in December. Dr. Pollard supports the recommendation but will need to determine its feasibility before approving. New Governance Icon on My MC A new governance icon was placed on the My MC home page that takes users directly to the Governance web page with only one click. The College Council recommended the icon to make information about governance more visible and easier to access for members of the College community. Engagement with College Plans, Processes The College Council was asked to provide feedback on proposed revisions to College policies and procedures, including feedback that will be used to develop the educational programs and support tools called for in the new procedure on the use of copyrighted materials. The College Council also provided feedback on the MC website redesign as well as safety and security training efforts, including suggestions for ways to reach out to students with active shooter and emergency training.1mcgovthumbhorizontal.pngattach/38f0c9d0-4a42-3e74-a508-d5f6005a5870/mcgovthumbhorizontal.pngtn_0.pngattach/38f0c9d0-4a42-3e74-a508-d5f6005a5870/tn_0.pngmcgovthumbhorizontal.pngattach/38f0c9d0-4a42-3e74-a508-d5f6005a5870/mcgovthumbhorizontal.pngOther (Do Not Use)cindy.mccormack@montgomerycollege.edu240-567-7257 79595
