SECTION 1.6
Support & Capital Outlay Projections (CCR title 5, § 55180, 55181) 1.6A – Describe Plan to Continue Center Operation for 10 Years or More The Shasta-Tehama-Trinity Community College District (Shasta College) is governed by a seven-member Board of Trustees who are elected by qualified voters of the district. Board members are elected by trustee area, as defined in “Board Policy 2100-Board Elections,” and are elected to four-year terms. The seven Board members each represent major significant portions of the Shasta, Tehama and Trinity counties, and minor portions of Lassen, Modoc, and Humboldt Counties. The Board also includes a non-voting Student Trustee who is the Student Senate President elected at large by the student body for a one-year term. The Tehama Campus operations, academics, assessment for effectiveness, and planning are embedded within the Shasta College organizational structure. Oversight for the Tehama Campus is included in the district’s governance and planning structures. The proposed Educational Center status will not change the structures currently in place. The Tehama Campus is expected to meet the same standards for student success and retention as the rest of Shasta College. The Office of Research and
Institutional Effectiveness, in collaboration with various administrative and instructional offices, provides summary data and examining evidence to inform the planning and decision-making processes for all areas of Shasta College. Data, which includes student enrollment and Full-Time Equivalent Student (FTES) totals, are used to monitor, evaluate, and improve the effectiveness and quality of services for each area, as well as Shasta College as a whole. Typical practices include working with faculty in collecting, tracking, and monitoring student enrollment, success, retention, and demographic data. The Tehama Campus has been operating at its current location for 12 years. The District intends to continue operations well into the future. Longterm plans include multiple opportunities for expansion on the 40-acre site, with two additional building sites already prepared. Shasta College has a strong record of evaluating and expanding programs and services to meet students’ needs by investing resources district-wide to support the communities it serves.
1.6B – Include District Facilities Master Plan That Incorporates the Proposed Center The Shasta College 2014–2030 Facilities Master Plan (Appendix E) outlines all district facilities as of 2014 and provides planning guidance. Facilities planning is conducted through a shared governance process led by the Shasta College Facilities

Planning Committee and follows the Shasta College Integrated Planning Manual (Appendix E). Applying for Educational Center status for the Tehama Campus is referenced on page 17 of the
