CSEA on the Go: Board Elections, Spring Retreat

Thanks to Staff Development, the CSEA Retreat was approved for this school year.  So as to have less impact on the students, the two-day trip will take place during spring break.  Please contact the CSEA Executive Board with your suggestions regarding dates and speakers.  Also, be sure to give us ideas about what you would like to learn more about.

     Faculty, managers, or one of our own classified employees can conduct workshops on subjects and/or issues relevant to the college.  We will have the CSEA Labor Relations Representative, Matt Gentile, who will educate us on our contract.  Many of you who attended last year learned a great deal about your rights as a CSEA member.

     I would like to thank those of you who already made personal donations towards Proposition 92.  CSEA has received over two thousand dollars in regards to this initiative.  Time is running out and funds are needed today to let voters know the importance of the initiative.  If you have not contributed, please send your donations to the CSEA Treasurer, Margaret Nadir.

     At our chapter meeting in October, we took nominations for the CSEA Executive Board. In November, we will have one more meeting at the Garfield campus where we will again be accepting nominations.  The election date is Wednesday, December 19, 2007.

     We are proud to report that over 80 classified employees participated in a workshop, facilitated by Jill Lewis, discussing various checklists from the new four standards in preparation for the 2010 Accreditation site visit.

      Negotiations have begun and we will update the membership on the progress in the next issue of the CSEA newsletter Spirit of 76. &

 In Unity,
Saodat Aziskhanova
