The Black Advisory Committee of Valencia Community College. Guidelines.
Valencia Community Coll., Orlando, FL.
Information and guidelines are presented in this report on the Black Advisory Committee (BAC) at Valencia Community College, which was created to monitor and assess the progress made by the college in increasing the enrollment and meeting the needs of black students. The preface outlines the history of the BAC's creation, the needs that the committee was designed to address, and its current role as a sounding board for matters pertaining to minority students. Next, guidelines for the BAC specify: (1) the status of the committee; (2) its purposes, i.e., to be a source of information for the college president, to assist in recruiting and retaining black personnel and students, and to develop a positive image of the college in the community; (3) its membership, which consists of people from the black community, administrators, faculty, and staff; (4) the offices and tenure of committee members; and (5) the frequency of meetings. Appended material provides BAC recommendations to the college president from 1979-80 through 1982-83, which included the funding of a Black Student Retention Pilot Project, the establishment of an Office of Minority Affairs, improved transportation for students, more support for developmental programs, and the employment of greater numbers of black faculty and administrators. Information on BAC incentive award recipients is also included. (HB)
