we are a really luck to have a portfolio that tells us a lot about
we can not talk about ( preferred demographics 0
make separate the issue of ESL
to start the dialogue
The kind of school we are dictates our market
without a foundation year we are more demanding
70% white males- has changed
5-6 years ago it became 10 times harder to get a loan
shifted our demographic enormously
10 percent were coming from high school
the rest were coming with no expectation of transfer credit
1/3 of our students came from community colleges
colleges experience a drop in transfer students
how do we re- attract older students
at same time there are prep programs for younger high school students
a new market slipped in
how do we recapture some of these more mature students
we have less to offer than other ACAD
we have some diversity funds
what are we willing to pay for diversity
ex. costs 3 times more to bring in a latino student
what are we willing to pay
our situation will change when we get dorms
if we had dorms we could offer financial aid as part of the packet
California has a unique situation
we know you have ideas about
over the time I have been here we have gone from 20 percent negotiating discount to almost all students

Fred’s speculation is that Vast majority of our part-time faculty are not as well compensated
Part time reviews need to be done as soon as possible

What is the timeframe?

What does success look like for the day?
Good attendance and engaged conversation
a sense of direction going forward
Jane:
a bridge between the work we did this summer and a sense coming out of the day of desire to continue work.
Anne: Address the potential that some think all this stuff goes into the ether.
I am sitting here thinking "heavy lifting" - so now I think what happened to all that work
" was it a waste of time"
Acknowledge the individuals that led the visioning the last time.
What are changes that have taken place?
Be honest with ourselves about goals
We are trying to invent the Art and Design school for the 21st Century

How do you do this so that the students feel gratitude and are not bitter?
Lorne: This is the real conversation
are we going to look squarely at the really difficult stuff
make your fears the focus of what your
What are the really hard questions
Student anger about their experience here
what is that about do we hear it are we responding to it
Why is alumni giving 1 percent
There are people that adore
The Yelp
corporate money grubbing place
what is the myth?
Why is there this unspoken sensibility that we are afraid to ask alumni for money?
we get hate mail back when people ask for money?
You are picking my pocket again after what you took from me?
Do we have the right faculty structure here?
Do we have organizational bloat?
Do we have a sometmes spoken struggle with a majority of asian students
let's talk about why it is
let's talk about
How do we see growth and do we see this as a dilution of the reason that students come here
Do we want to face these demons
Are we as exceptional as we think we are?
We need to have the courage to face some of these issues
maybe we can start the long process.
Nick:
IS there a sense that we are lowering standards of quality?
Are we ready as an institution to face any of these issues?
Geoff -Grand visions with reality of tuition dependency
Gary:
I am less concerned about dilution. There are smart people out there that don't know ACCD is an option.
much larger pool
are we drawing the people that are our best canadidates.

central tennets of Art Center Pedagogy is grounded in physical space
what still needs to happen here
moved to discussion about Summmer.
question of appropriate business model that supports modularity and diversity
New forms of pedagogy
formative stages of learning instead of finish
tech can be leveraged to increase and provide for these needs
opportunity for having more marketing around this pedagogy
making this more visible

Vanalyn: hard to do study abroad and exchange
DM Less electives and other classes
How can we run less classes in the summer and still produce a financial base?
Geoff out of phase with other universities makes it difficult to work with other institutions
Fred
the time we have is under regulation. We are jammed at the end of the term
