II. Instruction and Student Services
It is recommended that the Board approve the deactivation of the Bank and Finance AAS degree approved and submitted by the District Curriculum Committee.
Program: Banking and Finance AAS Campus: Meramec Effective: Spring 2010
Impact Statement
The Banking and Finance AAS degree was implemented by St. Louis Community College Meramec in Spring 1983, in partnership with the Center For Financial Training [CFT] a national organization that trains entry level banking and finance personnel. Since its inception, the degree program has never reached a market level that provides evidence that students benefit by attaining the AAS degree. The CFT indicates that the majority of students who take classes with the local branch office transfer these credits to 4-year schools in our service area. In recent conversations with the local program administrator, she indicated that another community college in the area: Southwestern Illinois College deactivated the degree over a year ago.
All business and economics courses offered in this degree are either required or elective credit in the AA in Business Administration degree.
Board Meeting 10-29-09 10
It is recommended that the Board approve the deactivation of the Supply Chain Management AAS and Certificate of Proficiency degrees approved and submitted by the District Curriculum Committee. Program: Supply Chain Management AAS CP Campus: Meramec Effective: Spring 2010 Impact Statement The Associate in Applied Science Degree and Certificate of Proficiency in Supply Chain Management were implemented in 2003. The employment requirements for persons who work in the supply chain management field require at minimum a 4-year degree, and most often an advanced degree. Students interested in this profession prefer to enroll in general education required courses at the Community College, and then proceed to fulfill the advanced degree requirements at 4-year schools. Due to significantly low enrollments, the program advisory committee suggested we update the program name and course offerings. The changes have not resulted in increased student interest. It is recommended that the Board approve the deactivation of the Early Care and Education-Child Development Associate Option AAS degree approved and submitted by the District Curriculum Committee. Program: Early Care and Education-Child Development Associate Option AAS Campus: Forest Park Effective: Spring 2010 Impact Statement The Child Development Associate Option of the Associate in Applied Science Degree in Early Care and Education is only offered at the Forest Park campus. The degree was designed as an accelerated, competency based option for students who had worked in the child care field for five or more years and needed credentials to maintain their jobs or to be promoted. Anecdotal conversations with Headstart staff and directors revealed that many believed the program was too intensive for individuals who were working full time. Consequently, a proposal is being submitted to deactivate the program and all related courses due to declining enrollment as well as difficulty transferring the courses into the traditional program at the remaining campuses of St. Louis Community College and articulating the courses with four year institutions. A course for course conversion has been created to seamlessly transition students from this program into the traditional program offered at the Forest Park, Florissant Valley and Meramec campuses.

The primary feeder comprised of three cables in 4” conduit, from the primary transformer supplying power to the Communications Building was bad and needed to be replaced. In order to replace the cables, all connections, terminations, and junction boxes going to the building had to be taken apart and replaced or repaired. When the primary power feed cable went bad, campus personnel switched to the secondary power feed leaving the building without a backup power feed to the building. If the secondary feeder went out, power to the building would be lost. Therefore, an emergency repair contract was issued.

5.1.1 Executive Summary October 29, 2009
(Financial Results Through 09/30/2009)
Revenue
The Budget Status Summary Report shows revenue of $41.5 million or 25.6% of the budgeted revenue as compared to $38.8 million or 24.3% of the budget for the prior year. Student Fee revenue is expected to show increases over the previous fiscal year due to strong enrollment trends in the summer and fall sessions. Local Tax revenue trails the previous fiscal year due to lower collections of delinquent taxes, while lower Other Revenue reflects low interest rates on investments. State Aid will be comparable to last year.
Expenditures
Expenditures are $31.1 million or 21.4% of the budgeted expenditures as compared to $28.8 million or 20.2% for the prior year. The overall year-to-year $2.2 million increase in Total Expenditures is comprised of an expected $1.8 million increase in salaries, wages, and staff benefits over the previous fiscal year due to wage and benefit rate increases and higher expenditures related to rising enrollment. Operating is $429k higher than last year as the result of recording annual prepaid license and maintenance agreement expenses.
Transfers
Transfers are at $14.0 million or 81.8% of the budgeted transfers as compared to $14.5 million or 82.7% of the budgeted transfers for the prior period. A decrease in planned capital is the primary reason the total for FY 2010 is lower than the total for FY 2009.
