Change in Open Forum Format at MCC Board of Trustees Meetings

The following notice was submitted to the MCC Daily Tribune on behalf of MCC Board of Trustees Chairperson Dr. Barbara P. Lovenheim.

The current format for the Open Forum at the Board of Trustees meetings is not providing faculty, staff, students or the community with an opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue. The Board would like to provide direct access to the Board, time to engage in dialogue and an opportunity to follow up on any concerns. The Board Chair will work with shared governance leadership to craft an alternative that would include follow-up questions and action items, and a closing of the communication loop. We will not have the Open Forum at the December Board meeting, and the cooperative College Forum would begin in the Spring semester.
