Our Classified Senate
was established in 1992. The Classified Senate organization
exists to help the classified employee participate in
decision-making (shared-governance). Participatory governance means
that all 'stake-holders' (faculty, students, staff,
administrators...) have an opportunity to understand and
contribute voice regarding the health of the
campuses/district system. To do that, staff participate
effectively on committees and councils. Committee meetings
are important vehicles for budget decisions, policies and
procedures, among other issues. The Classified Senate
ensures that participation (voice), communication, and
clarification is provided for our colleagues.
Staff are the first and
last line of operations of a community college; the
mechanism that keep our community colleges working smoothly
for students, faculty, and the community. With years of
combined experience and training, this resource can only be
utilized properly by active input in the participatory
governance process.
The Classified Senate
will help all staff become familiar and comfortable with the
organizational governance structure at the district,
understand the decision-making process, government/education
code, and other laws that affect the way that classified
staff interface with, and support, our institution and
educational community. More information about Classified
Senate, SB235 and statewide position papers can be found on
the California Community College Classified Senate Website
