Student Services: Student Academic Management: Please see “Decisions Made” ID 3 and “Action Item” ID 4. Jean reported that 523 sections have been built and some need to be tweaked. Rosemary recommended having a Live simulation between the entire Student Services Modules. In the Team Lead Meeting possibly next Thursday, 5/31/07, after the IOC Meeting, this will be planned out. Inactive programs in connection with the ISERs were discussed. Patricia will put them in Live. Kelley explained any student that was tagged in TIP with inactive programs was sent a letter to please change your programs and a huge portion was returned. Kelley stated a concern that some programs students can not apply for financial aid. The IR Department aided in discovering deceased alumni and now the Team has to decease 463 alumni in Legacy before inputting into Colleague. Desktop checking of the placement test program which is complicated and timely.
A/R: Please see “Decisions Made” ID 4 and “Action Item” ID 5. Rosemary reported that E-Commerce is working so the Team was able to test transactions both on WebAdvisor and through Datatel. The Team is working to have a student deferred payment plan by July and training for all the Student Module members will be on Monday, 6/18/07. Waivers and which departments handle the processes will be discussed. Bruce inquired on In-District, Out-of-District, etc. codes. Jean explained the code will not be changed however the description has.
Admissions: George reported that the Team did some manual integration with Active Apply explained future batches are not a problem but have to fix past ones. There is a rules problem with communication management in which Perry is still working on it and George inquired of the status. Patricia will connect with him. Kamlesh explained that the integration catches duplicates so that’s why they are testing it manually to see if it is. Two programs: MACRO and Upgraded Job Skills in which the naming code convention isn’t correct in Active Apply not in Colleague was discussed. Waiting to start automatic process until 6/30/07 was discussed. George inquired if we need to continue to keep a paper copy of the application for the future. Jean said a folder needs to be kept for some things for the student. Kamlesh stressed we have to be extremely careful of what we have copies of and let’s not just keep paper copies because we used to do it. Document imagining is not happening now so some copies will have to be kept of other things in students folder, Jean explained, but agreed not a paper copy of applications. What is paper and what electronic record keeping will have to be discussed in the near future & implemented into our system, stressed George. For example GVSU inputs everything into its system and only keeps paper for two weeks after that and then the paper is shredded. Kamlesh encouraged everyone to please review the application in Active Apply because every time there are changes it will cost MCC.
Degree audit: No report.

Financial Aid: Bruce inquired about the conversion process in regards to program codes for dual enrolled students and a concern of accidental awarded financial aid. Jean said it will be a Z code of undecided and there is a code of high school guest. George on the FASFA application it is asked if the student has graduated from high school that will be the safeguard also it is still mostly a paper process and he believes that it will not go to an electronic process quickly. Kamlesh stated it is not an MCC problem if the high school dual enrolled student put they had graduated high school. Another issue is Board of Trustee Scholarship high school senior awardees that are not MCC students yet and not into Colleague, convert or do manually into the new system to package. Kamlesh and Patricia explained since there are only sixteen students to input them manually. George inquired if they can put an application into the new system; Patricia stated yes as long as they have a social security number and are assigned a Colleague ID number. Bruce needs to get with Kamlesh to set up the integration with MCC loan server, Nelnet and Datatel/Colleague system. Timeline was discussed. Bruce has talked to Perry about this and he had benchmarked other colleges on this. Kamlesh inquired what Bruce’s plan B is. He answered do everything manually.

Technical: With limited resources priorities need to be established. Patricia explained for everyone to compile a list of issues/items that need response by 6/30/07 and ones that can wait till after that date and email it to OIT. Patricia will inquire with Perry on these two issues. Patricia informed everyone of MUG, on Thursday, 6/14/07 and the deadline to register is Friday, 6/8/07. Patricia will email the information to Kelli to forward to the IOC Members. Due to a prior commitment Kamlesh can not attend and invited anyone to take his place on Wednesday, 6/13/07 for a one day Datatel conference at Calvin College for all MI CIO’s. Please email him if you’re interested. Kamlesh explained that there are so many clones currently out there and inquired if any could be deleted. Rosemary recommended waiting until after student modules go Live.
