Focus on other projects; not analysis
Based on the brief discussion of the Governing Board at the June 14, 2016 meeting, the seven-member blue ribbon Verde Valley Board Advisory Committee is not to get into the job of analyzing feedback received from around 70 or so Verde Valley residents regarding how well the College is operating.
Verde Valley Representative Al Filardo raised the question at the Board meeting. He said that he would advise the Committee that “the job of the Verde Valley Board Advisory Committee is to collect feedback, not necessarily analyze it. Is that correct madam Chair?”
Chair Pat McCarver replied that “if we look back that we were asked that question by the newspapers. So we look back at the minutes and it was so that we could gather the feedback . . . that was as far as it went. I think that is what we want.”
Filardo said: “There’s so much we need to focus on that focusing on the right things is a good thing.”
McCarver also said that during their fall retreat they would talk about what they want from the Verde Valley Board Advisory Committee next year.
