The Committee discussed the need for establishing a Technology Master Plan Task Force. The Committee agreed that it was better to develop a review process which would start with the Dean of Insitutional Research (Maury Pearl) reviewing the program reviews and the master plans, and then report to Technology, which in turn would report to the Shared Governance Task Force each year. The SGTF then could set up a Planning Group to update, revise, implement, and coordinate technology throughout all of the college master plans. 

This process will be submitted to the Shared Governance Task for in their meeting of 10-15-09 for review and feedback to the committee.

3. The Committee reviewed its membership, and decided that the Committee Charter should be amended to add a representative from Administrative Services to assist with technology planning in the new construction, and the LRC Director, or an appointed representative to assist with the implementation of new technologies in the new Title V  Student Success and LRC rennovation proejct.  David will bring an amendment to the charter to the next Shared Governance Task Force for their review and consideration before recommending adoption by the College Council.

4. The Committee discussed the process to review the Technology Master Plan and for the annual update.
