November 6, 2023: The ASCCC tried a different method of holding Area meetings during the 2023 Fall Area Meetings. During this time, all 4 Area meetings took place on Friday, Oct 27. The morning session was comprised of a general session, where attendees were able to hear general information from the President, the Resolutions Chair, and the Foundation President. The afternoon portion was divided into Area meetings. The event took place via Zoom Events.
Whereas, The Academic Senate for California Community Colleges Area A and Area B meetings have consistently been held on a Friday, and the Area C and Area D meetings have consistently been held on a Saturday, which is often outside of the traditional work week;
Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges (ASCCC) explore options for Area meetings that align with the needs and best interest of each individual Area while also balancing logistical considerations of the ASCCC Executive Committee and ASCCC office team starting with the Fall 2023 Area meetings.
