PUB DATE 2000-00-00 NOTE 154p.; Published four times a year. PUB TYPE Collected Works Serials (022) JOURNAL CIT FACCCTS; v6 n1-4 1999-2000 EDRS PRICE MF01/PC07 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Administrator Attitudes; Affirmative Action; *College Faculty; *Community Colleges; Educational Change; Newsletters; *Partnerships in Education; *School Effectiveness; Two Year Colleges IDENTIFIERS *California Community Colleges ABSTRACT This document is comprised of four Faculty Association of California Community Colleges (FACCC) newsletters. The September 1999 issue is entitled "Capitol Comments: Read What Lawmakers Say about Community Colleges in Response to the Third FACCCTS Legislator Poll." This newsletter contains the following articles: "Capitol Comments," which examines how community colleges have touched the lives of legislators, why they think highly of the California Community Colleges system, and how they plan to help; and "Authors Debunk Prop 209 Myths," which demonstrates how practical affirmative action can be. The December 1999 issue is entitled "The Spirit of Advocacy." This newsletter contains the following articles: "Transform Partnership for Excellence," which sheds some light on the problems with Partnership for Excellence and why community college leaders must insist on changing; and "Transition to Trustee: A Faculty View," in which the author writes about her experience running for elected office, her toughest decisions as a trustee so far, and why she encourages other faculty members to follow the same path. The March/April 2000 issue focuses on scholarship and public policy, accreditation and quality, the SATs, and the 50 Percent Law, which calls for at least half of each college's unrestricted operational expenditures to go toward direct instruction. Finally, the June 2000 issue examines why American voters nominated Bush and Gore, and discusses Internet research and college FAQs (frequently asked questions). These newsletters also contain a variety of Feature columns and articles such as "Letters to the Editor," "Fast FACCCTS," "Budget: Investment in Education," "Daylight Shines on Part-Timers," "Higher Ed's Challenges," and "Talking about Teaching."

  • Governor Brown's Transportation Funding Plan
    Governor Brown’s Transportation Funding Plan This proposal is a balance of new revenue and reasonable reforms to ensure efficiency, accountability and performance from each dollar invested to improve California’s transportation system. Governor Brown’s Transportation Funding Plan Frequently Asked Questions This proposal is a combination of new revenue and reform with measurable targets for improvements including regular reporting, streamlined projects with exemptions for infrastructure repairs and flexibility on hiring for new workload. How much does this program provide overall for transportation improvements? • Over the next decade, the Governor’s Transportation Funding Plan provides an estimated $36 billion in funding for transportation, with an emphasis on repairing and maintaining existing transportation infrastructure and a commitment to repay an additional $879 million in outstanding loans. How much does it require the average vehicle owner in California to pay? • The proposal equates to roughly 25-cents per motorist per day according to the Department of Finance. The latest TRIP* study released, and subsequent article in the Washington Post, showed that Californians spend on average $762 annually on vehicle repair costs due to wear and tear / road conditions, etc. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonkblog/ wp/2015/06/25/why-driving-on-americas-roads-can-be-more-expensive-than-you-think/ A figure that should go down significantly with improved road conditions. How will the program improve transportation in California over the next decade? • Within 10 years, with this plan, the state has made a commitment to get our roadways up to 90% good condition. Today, 41% of our pavement is either distressed or needs preventative maintenance.
