Examine and increase adjunct workload and pay. 3. Hire administrative support and support staff – hire advisors, counselors, lab support, social workers and childcare for campuses that do not offer it currently. 4. Consider two system-wide policies – closing the registration window a week before semester begins and no guns on our campuses. 5. Reconsider D2L – online management system –examine other online management

Consideration of Consent Agenda Board Meeting 4-9-15 Consent Agenda: A roll call of individual action items will determine the consent agenda.

If a trustee has a question or plans to cast a negative vote regarding a specific recommendation, then the trustee/trustees need to acknowledge their intention to the Chair by show of hand during the roll call: this action item will be considered in the regular order of business as an individual action item. Those action items that the trustees plan to approve without further question or discussion will be placed on the consent agenda during roll call of individual action items. Upon the creation of the consent agenda, a motion, a second to the motion and unanimous approval of the Board of Trustees is needed to approve the action items. Upon approval of the consent agenda, the Board of Trustees will proceed with the remainder of the agenda.

Rationale: The consent agenda format is an organization process for meetings that

allows the governing board to focus their time and attention on action items that require more elaboration, information, and/or discussion. The intent of the consent agenda is to support efficiency and effectiveness of the meeting.

V.B.3.01 Workforce Educational Program The Board shall be authorized and empowered to finance, provide and supervise career and technical courses for students in the System.

V.B.3.02 Definitions "Workforce education" means technical courses and programs for which semester credit hours or for which continuing education units are awarded. Workforce education courses and programs prepare students for immediate employment after completion of an associates of applied sciences (AAS) or certificate or job upgrade within specific occupational categories.

"Certificate program" is defined as a workforce education programs, credit or non-credit, designed for entry-level employment or for upgrading skills and knowledge within an occupation. Certificate programs typically serve as building blocks and exit points for AAS degree programs.

"A workforce course, credit or non-credit," is defined as a course offered with an occupationally specific objective and supported by state funding. A workforce continuing education course differs from a community service course, which is offered for recreational or avocation purposes and is not supported by state funding.

V.B.3.03 General Provisions The System may classify workforce courses as earning semester/quarter credit hours or continuing education units (CEUs) based on THECB rules. Contact hours reported for workforce education courses which result in either credit hours or CEUs shall be eligible for formula funding. A course or program that meets or exceeds 360 hours in length must be approved as a workforce certificate program by THECB staff, following policy. A course or program that meets or exceeds 780 hours in length must result in the award of appropriate semester/quarter credit hours and be applicable to a certificate or an applied associate degree (AAS) program.

V.B.3.04 Approval of Programs In accordance with the Guidelines for Instructional Programs in Workforce Education (GIPWE) as approved by THECB, if the System wishes to offer a new certificate or applied associate degree program it must meet the following requirements:

a. Completed application forms and a statement of assurances must be approved by the Board and the Chancellor, and then forwarded to THECB's Community and Technical Colleges Division.

b. The statement of assurances must certify that THECB's criteria for new programs have been met.

V.B.3.05 Review Process

Once the program requirements have been met, the Coordinating Board staff may schedule the program for formal program review. This review process shall be conducted by representatives from the System, the Coordinating Board staff, and other appropriate agencies and institutions of higher education. Lone Star College will also conduct an internal program review for each workforce program on a four-year cycle and present results to the Chancellor and Board.

V.B.3.06 Procedures to Revise Program If the System wishes to revise an existing certificate or applied associate degree program, it must complete the procedures as outlined in the Coordinating Board-approved Guidelines for Instructional Programs in Workforce Education (GIPWE), as follows:

a. All programs must be under the direction of an administrator having appropriate authority to ensure that quality is maintained, and that programs are conducted in compliance with all applicable laws and rules. Administrative officers must possess credentials, work experience, and/or demonstrated competence appropriate to their areas of responsibility, as specified by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges ("SACS").

b. Faculty and staff must be approved by the post-secondary institution. Each individual must meet the minimum qualifications established by the Coordinating Board and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACS).

LSCS Policy Manual Section adopted by the Board of Trustees on August 7, 2008.

V.B.7. LSC-Online

V.B.7.01 Coordinating Board Approval The System may offer a LSC-Online course approved by the Coordinating Board with no in-state geographic restrictions if the course is within the approved curriculum of the System. The System's LSC-Online Program will comply with all Coordinating Board conditions and requirements as well as those established by accrediting agencies.

V.B.7.02 LSC-Online Definitions A "LSC-Online course" refers to instruction in which the majority of the instruction occurs when the students and instructor are not in the same physical setting. For Coordinating Board reporting purposes, a class is considered a LSC-Online class if students receive more than one-half of the instruction at a different location than the instructor. The System's LSC-Online program includes online and hybrid instruction which are clarified in the credit schedules and on the Lone Star College–Online website. Online advisors advise only fully-online students in courses that are 100% online.

Instruction may be synchronous or asynchronous, delivered to any single or multiple location(s) through electronic, correspondence, or other means outside the boundaries of the taxing authority of the System, or via instructional telecommunications to any other distance location.

V.B.7.03 Standards for LSC-Online LSC-Online instruction is comparable to on-campus instruction and meets all of the quality standards which the System provides through on-campus instruction.

LSC-Online courses offered through either college credit or Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are provided in accordance with the standards of the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), the Coordinating Board rules and regulations, the Guidelines for Institutional Reports for Distance Education and Off-Campus Instruction and other accrediting bodies as appropriate.

Students enrolled in LSC-Online must satisfy the same requirements for admission to the institution, to the program of which the course is a part, and to the class/section, as are required of on-campus students.

Faculty providing LSC-Online instruction are selected and evaluated by the same standards, review and approval procedures used to select and assess faculty responsible for on-campus instruction. The System provides training and support to enhance the added skills required of faculty teaching classes via instructional technology.

The instructor of record is responsible for the delivery of instruction and evaluation of student progress.

LSC-Online instruction is administered under the authority of the same office or person administering the corresponding on-campus instruction.

V.B.7.04 LSC-Online Strategic Plan LSC-Online will develop a strategic plan including applications of instructional technology as well as guidelines for supporting online faculty and advising students. The plan will be developed in alignment with the System’s Strategic Plan, according to requirements specified by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board and the System.

V.B.7.05 Institutional Report for LSC-Online Prior to offering any LSC-Online, off-campus, or on-campus extension courses or programs for the first time, the System shall submit its Institutional Report for LSC-Online, and Off-Campus and On-Campus Extension Instruction to the Coordinating Board for approval. The Report, and any updated Reports, shall conform to Coordinating Board guidelines and criteria of the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in effect at the time of the Report's approval.

The System's academic and administrative policies shall reflect a commitment to maintain the quality of LSC-Online, off-campus, and on-campus extension courses and programs in accordance with the provisions of 19 TAC Chapter 4, Subchapter E.

V.B.7.06 Out-of-State or Out-of-Country Courses The System will not submit LSC-Online courses delivered outside the state to non-Texas residents for formula funding. The System will report fees received for extension and out-of-state/country courses in accordance with general institutional accounting practices.

V.B.7.07 Reporting to Commissioner The System will report enrollments, courses and graduates associated with extension offerings to the Commissioner as required by the Coordinating Board.

LSCS Policy Manual Section adopted by the Board of Trustees on August 7, 2008

V.B.8. Dual Credit The System offers students in high schools within its service area the opportunity to take dual credit courses. Dual credit courses are courses for which students receive college credit or CEU credit as well as high school credit while still enrolled in the junior or senior year of high school. Students may enroll in academic and/or workforce education. The curriculum content and rigor of dual credit courses are equivalent to the college course standards and requirements. The faculty must meet the same SACSCOC qualifications as non-dual credit courses and programs. See the System catalog for current tuition and fee information.

These reports were compiled using information provided by Lone Star College. No procedures were performed to test the accuracy or completeness of this information. The market values included in these reports were obtained by Valley View Consulting, L.L.C. from sources believed to be accurate and represent proprietary valuation. Due to market fluctuations these levels are not necessarily reflective of current liquidation values. Yield calculations are not determined using standard performance formulas, are not representative of total return yields and do not account for investment advisor fees.

(1) Average Quarterly Yield calculated using quarter end report average yield and adjusted book value.

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) maintained the Fed Funds target range between 0.00% and 0.25% (actual Fed Funds traded +/-10 bps). Fourth Quarter GDP was revised to +2.2% (down the initial estimate +2.6%). Overall 2014 GDP equaled 2.4%, up from 2.2% 2013. New payroll and unemployment data remain encouraging. Wage growth and overall participation lag FOMC objectives. The S&P 500 exceeded 2,100, while the 10 year and 30 year Treasury Notes/Bonds recorded record low yields. International economical and political struggles are a long range concern. When available, financial institution deposit yields generally provide the best interest earnings opportunity. Continuing to ladder provides strategic advantage.

Financial Report and Consideration No. 2 (ACTION ITEM 2) Board Meeting 4-9-15 Request: Consideration of Approval to Authorize the Chancellor or Designee to

Negotiate and Execute Contracts to Purchase Janitorial Services Chancellor’s Recommendation:

That the Board of Trustees authorizes the Chancellor or designee to negotiate and execute contracts to purchase janitorial services for a not-to-exceed amount of $13,000,000 over five years from the vendors listed below. Soji Services, Inc. Dba Metroclean Commercial Building Services 9000 S.W. Freeway, Suite 412 Houston, TX 77074

Montgomery University Center at Montgomery Atascocita Center University Park

McLemore Building Maintenance, Inc. 110 Fargo Houston, TX 77006

System Office – The Woodlands

C & S Janitorial Services, Inc. 6706 Bourgeois Road Houston, TX 77066

CyFair

Rationale: Janitorial services are required for the daily and nightly cleaning of college,

center and specialty buildings. Both light and full janitorial services will be provided throughout all buildings. In compliance with the provisions of Texas Education Code 44.031 (a), a Request for Proposal (RFP #369) was publicly advertised and issued to forty (40) vendors; fifteen (15) responses were received. The award could not be based upon low bid alone. The proposals were evaluated based on cost, qualifications/experience, references, quality of goods and services, past performance, extent to which certified historically underutilized businesses (HUB), minority and/or veteran or women-owned businesses are utilized, long-term costs and other relevant factors. On-site presentations were made by the five (5) respondents receiving the highest proposal scores. It is recommended that the three vendors with the highest on-site presentation scores be awarded the contracts to ensure appropriate service levels. The initial term of the contract will be for two (2) years with an option to renew for three (3) additional one-year periods. Either party may terminate the agreement upon 30 days written notice. Additional locations may be

added during the term of the agreement under the same contract terms and conditions.

Fiscal Impact: Funds for these purchases are available from the approved FY 2014-15

budget. Funds for subsequent years will be included in future proposed budgets.

Staff Resource: Cindy Gilliam 832-813-6512


Negotiate and Execute Master Service Contracts to Purchase Facility Related Minor Projects, Maintenance, Repairs and Inspection Services for the System


That the Board of Trustees authorizes the Chancellor or designee to negotiate and execute master service contracts to purchase facility related minor projects, maintenance, repairs and inspection services for the System. The scope of the award is for individual projects that cost less than $100,000. Total estimated annual costs for these services are expected to be $2,000,000, and will not exceed $10,000,000 over the five year contract term. See attached listing for recommended vendors.

Rationale: The purpose of awarding multiple trades is to expedite the turn-around time

for minor projects, maintenance, repairs and inspection services for system facilities, while ensuring a safe, clean, and operable environment for students, faculty and staff. In compliance with the provisions of Texas Education Code 44.031 (a), Request for Proposals (CSP #345A, #357A, and #374) were publicly advertised and issued to one hundred twenty four (124) vendors and twenty-one (21) responses were received. The proposals were evaluated based on cost, qualifications/experience/references, quality of goods or services, safety record, extent to which certified historically underutilized businesses (HUB), minority and/or veteran or women-owned businesses are utilized, proposed personnel, financial position, past performance and other relevant factors. It is recommended that all 21 vendors be awarded contracts to ensure appropriate service levels. Services under $25,000 will be awarded based on the vendor’s ability to provide the product/services within the timeframe required. Services $25,000 or more, but less than $100,000, will be obtained by requesting quotes from a minimum of three of the contractors awarded the service. Services for $100,000 or more will be competitively bid and brought forward to the Board separately for approval. The term of this award is for an initial three (3) years and will automatically renew for two additional one-year terms unless the vendor is notified by the System. The System reserves the right to cancel any agreement upon 30 days written notice with or without cause. Hourly rates will remain firm for the first year. Rate adjustments may be considered for subsequent years upon receipt of written justification supported by an increase in trade rates, inflation, or other measure as approved by the System.

Fiscal Impact: Funds for these purchases are available from the approved FY 2014-15

budget. Funds for subsequent years will be included in future proposed budgets.

Negotiate and Execute Contracts for the Purchase of Architectural Services for the System


That the Board of Trustees authorizes the Chancellor or designee to negotiate and execute contracts for the purchase of architectural services for the System with the highest ranked firms listed in the attachment. If negotiations cease for any reason with the 1st ranked firm, the System will proceed to negotiate with the next highest ranked firm with a score of 70 or more.

Rationale: As a result of the November 4, 2014 bond election, the System is

authorized to issue up to $485M in general obligation bonds for the purchase of land, new construction, repair and replacement, and renovation of facilities. Professional architectural services are required for phase one construction projects related to the approved bond referendum. The architectural services will include, but not be limited to, design, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC and civil engineering. In compliance with the provisions of Texas Government Code 2254.004, a Request for Qualifications (RFQ #365) was publicly advertised and issued to one hundred and forty one (141) firms. Thirty-nine (39) architectural firms subsequently responded to the RFQ. The initial evaluation of proposals was conducted based on the firm’s qualifications, references, relevant higher education project experience, approach and methodology, experience of proposed personnel, extent to which certified historically underutilized businesses (HUB), minority and/or veteran or women-owned businesses are utilized and the completeness and thoroughness of the response. On-site presentations were made by the twenty-one (21) firms receiving the highest proposal scores. It is recommended that the firms with the highest on-site presentation scores be awarded the contracts for architectural services. The selected architectural firms will render professional services for phase one of the bond program. The System reserves the right to utilize this selection and award other non-bond funded projects to the selected firms as deemed necessary. The initial term of the contract will be for two (2) years with an option to renew for three (3) additional one-year periods at LSC’s discretion. Either party may terminate the agreement upon 30 days written notice.

Fiscal Impact: Funds for these purchases are available from the General Obligation Bonds, Series 2015 and other funding sources.

Rationale: The college system accepts credit and debit cards for payment of tuition and fees, parking permits, citations, library late fees, coin copier charges and other services. LSC handles an estimated $52 million in electronic payments annually. These services include secure processing and settlement for all electronic payment transactions.

This purchase is in compliance with Texas Education Code §44.031. A Request for Proposals (RFP #354) was publicly advertised and issued to thirty four (34) vendors and eight (8) responses were received. The initial evaluation of proposals was conducted based on the vendor’s fees, qualifications/experience/System needs met, references, quality of service, past performance, the extent to which historically underutilized businesses (HUB) minority and/or veteran and women-owned businesses are utilized, long-term costs, location and other relevant factors. On-site presentations were made by the three vendors receiving the highest proposal scores. It is recommended that the vendor with the highest on-site presentation score be awarded the contract for these services.

The term of the award will be for a period of five years.

Fiscal Impact: Funds for this purchase are available from the approved FY 2014-15 budget. Funds for subsequent fiscal years will be included in future proposed budgets.

Rationale: The proposed renovation project is intended to refresh the main corridors

on the first floor of the Technology Building. Plans include replacing the carpet, painting the walls, improving the ceiling and installing additional lights. The Technology Building is a high traffic area and houses several workforce programs. This purchase is in compliance with Texas Government Code 2269.055. A Request for Proposals (CSP #372) was issued to sixty-seven (67) construction vendors and four (4) responses were received. The proposals were evaluated based on price, experience, references, project experience, quality plan and service, extent to which certified historically underutilized businesses (HUB), minority and/or veteran and women-owned businesses are utilized, safety record, program and training, proposed lead personnel, financial position and other relevant factors. It is recommended that the vendor with the highest proposal evaluation score be awarded the construction contract.

Fiscal Impact: Funds for this purchase are available from the approved FY 2014-15

budget. Staff Resource: Cindy Gilliam 832-813-6512 Audre Levy 281-290-3941


Negotiate and Execute a Contract to Purchase Construction Services for Expansion of Office of Technology Services (OTS) at LSC-CyFair


That the Board of Trustees authorizes the Chancellor or designee to negotiate and execute a contract to purchase construction services for the expansion of OTS at LSC-CyFair from E-Contractors, 5711 Richmond Ave. Suite 130, Houston, Texas 77056, in the amount of $255,208.

Rationale: The proposed renovation project will expand and update the OTS space on the first floor of the Technology Center. OTS needs additional space, including a workroom and storage area, to meet the requirements of the growing student and staff population. This purchase is in compliance with Texas Government Code 2269.055. A Request for Proposals (CSP #375) was publicly advertised and issued to sixty-seven (67) construction vendors and two (2) responses were received. The proposals were evaluated based on cost, experience, references, project experience, quality plan and services, the extent to which certified historically underutilized businesses (HUB), minority and/or veteran and women-owned businesses are utilized, safety record, program and training, proposed lead personnel, financial position and other relevant factors. It is recommended that the vendor with the highest proposal evaluation score be awarded the construction contract.

Fiscal Impact: Funds for this purchase are available from the approved FY 2014-15

budget. Staff Resource: Cindy Gilliam 832-813-6512 Link Alander 832-813-6832 Audre Levy 281-290-3941


Approve Non-Credit Workforce Certificate and Community Education Course Tuition and Fee Rates as Needed Based on Market Conditions


That the Board of Trustees authorizes the Chancellor or designee to approve non-credit workforce certificate and community education course tuition and fee rates as needed based on market conditions, with the exception of non-credit courses that are linked to credit courses. Such courses will be offered at the same tuition and fee rates as the credit courses.

Rationale: Throughout the year there are fluctuations in market conditions due to changes in the economy. In addition, non-credit certificates and courses start at various times throughout the year based on employer and community demand. The minimum course tuition and fee amount will be based on $10 per contact hour for non-credit workforce certificates. It is recommended that the Board of Trustees authorizes the Chancellor or designee to determine the tuition and fees for non-credit programs and courses as necessary to respond to the fluctuation in market conditions.

Fiscal Impact: Tuition and fees collected for non-credit courses offered in Corporate College, Computer Technology Education and Community Education will be set at a rate that will cover all expenses.

Financial Report and Consideration No. 9 (ACTION ITEM 9) Board Meeting 4-9-15

Request: Consideration of Approval to Set Tuition Rate for Associate Degree in Occupational and Life Skills (OLS®) at LSC-Tomball


That the Board of Trustees approves an addition to the 2015-16 tuition and fee schedule that would allow the OLS® program to be bundled and charged to the student at a fixed total amount.

Rationale: Lone Star College has partnered with Bellevue College in Washington State to replicate their associate’s degree in OLS® for students with intellectual disabilities. The proposed tuition rate is $312.50 per credit hour, or approximately $5,000 for this program annually per student.

No other college in Texas currently offers this associate degree or a comparable program for this student population. Lone Star College will pilot the program at LSC-Tomball. Bellevue College (originator college) and NorthWest Arkansas Community College (first replicating college) have tuition rates of $625 per credit hour, or $10,000 annually per student. These are the only colleges in the country offering this four-year, part-time, supportive degree program. The recommended tuition rate for LSC’s pilot program is lower than the other two national programs reflecting this region’s economic conditions relative to the economic conditions of the regions where the other two programs are being offered. Scholarship grants will be pursued to assist students with the cost of the program.

This custom program is tailored for the partnership and branding with OLS® National at Bellevue College. Unique features of the program will include small classroom sizes, a cohort-style model, internships, job placement assistance, and faculty and staff supports. This program may be replicated at other Lone Star Colleges contingent upon community need.

Fiscal Impact: Students will be charged $312.50 per credit hour, or approximately $5,000 for this program annually, less any scholarships awarded.

RESOLUTION TO PERMIT INDIVIDUAL BOARDS OF TRUSTEES AUTHORITY TO DETERMINE WHETHER TO PERMIT GUNS ON CAMPUS

WHEREAS, the Texas Legislature is considering legislation that would permit holders of concealed handgun licenses to carry such weapons on Texas college campuses, whether concealed or openly;

WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees of the Lone Star College System are entrusted by the voters within the System’s boundaries with governance of the system;

WHEREAS, a majority of the Board of Trustees of Lone Star College attended at least one, if not both, student-led campus forums at which students, staff, faculty, administrators, and community members discussed the facts, opinions, and concerns related to this topic;

WHEREAS, the forums were open to and attended by the public and the media;

WHEREAS, both forums were conducted in a manner that facilitated open and respectful discussion of opposing viewpoints and included public reports from the participants of the views discussed;

WHEREAS, public comments and paper and computer opinion polling at the forums exhibited majority support for local control on this issue; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees is uniquely positioned to be aware of which Lone Star College System facilities house day care centers, early college high schools, health care facilities, and public library branches;

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Trustees of the Lone Star College System urges the Texas Legislature, if it passes a bill for presentation to the governor that allows concealed or open carry of firearms on Texas public college and university campuses, that it do so only while allowing for local governing boards to choose whether to opt out entirely or, at a minimum, to have the authority to exempt campuses or facilities that house programs for more vulnerable populations, such as those listed above.
