Guiding Principles

The Resource Allocation and Facilities Committee is committed to clearly communicating our processes and recommendations.  In the resource allocation process, we will ask the questions:

  • Does it help students reach their educational goals?  
  • Does is promote student equity?
  • Is it reasonable?
  • Is it allowable?
  • Is it essential?
  • Is it sustainable?

The direction of the Resource Allocation and Facilities Committee is based on the following established Guiding Principles: 

  • Valuing stewardship and integrity in recognizing our fiduciary responsibility to ensure fiscal stability and sustainability of physical resources
  • Taking an institutional approach to decision-making
  • Allocating physical and fiscal resources strategically to strengthen learning and support services that improve student success
  • Advocating and articulating college needs through planning documents and a defined and documented process
  • Using relevant, well-defined, agreed upon data in a consistent manner for decision-making
  • Leveraging of current physical and fiscal resources proactively, regardless of fiscal climate
  • Operating under established timelines
  • Assessing, refining, and communicating the resource allocation model and processes regularly
  • Propose and prioritize ADA and other legislative compliance
