Admissions:
Teresa introduced the Vice President of Student Services, George Maniates as Admissions Team Co-Lead. George reported that the Team met yesterday and memo was emailed out. There are two major events coming up, the first testing the Live Colleague Release 18 on 8/26/06 and on 9/22/06 the entire Team of Admissions and enrollment will be training on prospect application and communications. Final remote consultation is 8/25/06.
 
Tested Admissions/Recruitment Management Code Files and VAL Codes were distributed by Brenda. Please see “Decisions Made” ID 3. Please see “Action Item” ID 6. 
 
Discussion on if an Institutional Database was going to be purchased occurred. Kelley believes it was CORE’s recommendation to purchase one. George recommended going with a purchased product for continuity and questioned if one can be ordered with MI institutions appearing first on the list in the system. Patricia and Perry will research the topic.
 
Student Academic Management:   
Jean reported that the Team training went well. The Team built registration rules in test, discussed on how to deal with CE registration and Mary Ottman from the Admissions Team aiding in working on non course. The Team’s trainer, Doug built some non test codes. The Team is also working on IPEDS. Jean reported the Team is working on policy changes, remedial policies. This issue will likely have to go to IAC, as well as the minimum grade policy. Another issue is the incomplete default grade in Colleague is one grade and the pertaining policies are being reviewed. Diane question is there a way to notify instructors that there is an incomplete grade that will be turned into something else and action is required by them. Perry will look into it. Remote consultation is 9/18/06. The Team is planning on coming in Saturday, 8/26/06 to test and the time when was discussed. 
 
George is working on the placement test issue. Teresa reported that Academic Affairs is close to making a decision on the placement testing software.
