9. 12. What are the advantages of assigning rooms?? (with 2 year analysis of room utilization)  Sample of Dates of migrating “ownership”  Department ----- date  Instruction ----- date  Others ----- date

10. 13. Observe scheduling deadlines. Think of Associate Faculty and Textbooks. 14.Monitor your enrollments and be ready to add classes if you can to meet student need. ***You need to talk to your dean to make sure you have money, space, etc. ** Look at MiraCosta’s enrollment management system, EDDI at https://eddi.miracosta.edu/ (go in as a guest, select “active”, and look at Fall 2010)

11. 15. Examine the IGETC/other patterns for your college. Look by day/night. Look by location. Look at everything!

13. 16. Know your apportionment methods and the impact of each method.  When you go away from weekly census, you lose FTES.  Positive attendance counts in the term where the last day rests.  Summer can count in either year (class by class) IF Census day is in one year and end date in another.  Give yourself flexibility by scheduling this way.

14. 17. Know Board Policy or Contract regarding:  Full-time overload for Fall and for Spring.  Your order after load is filled  Summer, for both Full-time or Associate Faculty (could be different than state law)

15.  Part-time Faculty Load (State saysthey can only go over.67 for two semesters each 3 years. This has to be tracked. (very serious stuff))  Any teaching, including credit, non-credit, and count toward the 67%. Community Services is exempt.  How do you track this????
