President McClain�s request for Needs not expected to be funded by Biennium Budget Appropriation

▪          Clyde presented the baccalaureate program at a recent ILWU meeting. Interest coming from union to work with us in transition & identified challenges they have. We need to mobilize the same way we did for the Island of Lanai.

They are working with OCET to provide training for these workers as they transition, either into other positions within this company or as they seek positions on the side. Suzette was asked to follow up if they�re taking advantage of Federal resources available & to pursue union partnerships.

▪          EOC is playing an increasing roll in interpreting what it is we are offering here at the college and to our community.

▪          Need to review funding priorities. Electricity and infrastructure will be presented to the president for consideration. The Native Hawaiian priority is already been established as a priority.        

 

President Bush�s Community-Based Job Training Initiative Grant Program

▪          Vaughn Baker is statewide coordinator and he has already talked with Lois and Suzette.

WASC Feedback and Presence at Meeting in June

▪          We wish to retain our flexibility through the Rural Development Project.  We will be meeting with the leadership in Philadelphia and DC in San Francisco to create a new template for RDP funding.  The Senator�s office has created language so the job skills now contain language for Alaska and Hawaii.  It includes the mentioning of unique populations.  Resources will come in the future not through RDP, but will come to the jobs filled that are directed to the college.
